WORK AHEAD FOR CONGRESS. There are indications that congress will be kept in session the entire summer, with the probable exception of a short recess or two that may be agreed upon to permit the members to slip back home to examine the condition of their political fences. The senate finance committee has practically re-written the Fordney tariff bill, passed a few weeks ago by the house and debate on the changes made in the bill is likely to run through the summer months, unless some plan is adopted to curtail the talk on the various sections of the bill. Even after the senate bill has been adopted, it will be necessary for the senate and house to get together on the changes that have been made in the Fordney bill. This may be expe dited by the fact that members of both houses will be anxious to get away from Washington during the closing weeks of the campaign to ex amine their political fences. w.uc ui uic must iuj.puri.iiiu tuugrcssiuuai elections in the history of the Republican party will be held this year, and members of the ma- , jority in congress have more than the usual in terest in retaining control of congress. Members of the house will be more anxious to get into the campaign than will senators who are seeking re-election, as all the members of the house will be selected and only 54 senators. That seems to be one good reason why repre sentatives may seek to bring pressure on the "senators to act on pending egislation as soon as possible before August when a number of state primaries will be held. tions in which 'the impossibility of a defi nite solution need not deprive the parties to the controversy of any fun. As a theme to inspire poets, youth has a shade the better of it over old age. The writers who laud the pleasures of the declining years of life seem to be somewhat on the defensive, as if they were, rescuing old age from becoming considered a necessary although mild affliction. whle those who tune their lyre to youth sing with the assurance of one who scents victory in the air. They tell us that for youth life is still in the making, and that youth is free. It is this last note on which a recent writer on the subject seizes in an effort to appraise the alleged freedom of youth. Youth, he says. is a "time when one did what one didn't want to. One was helpless much as in the army one drifted through the years with bewilder ment often in a state of apprehension as to what was going to happen next. It is the time when the born bolt and nut manufacturer is obliged to study English poetry, when the in spired painter or musician is compelled to mas ter Comic Sections. It is a period of introspec tive morbidity, of callow religious hysteria, of agonizing shyness." The most delightful thing about this whole controversy is that anything that may be said on the subject is so tinged with personal feeling and reflects so much the individual's own ex perinece that what may be true of him may still be wholly untrue in the case of another individual. Many grownups looking today at youth about them will wonder where anyone ever got the idea that these young people were afflicted with "agonizing shyness." And one may conceivably find many old people who will readily admit that if anything has got hold of youth about them it is not "callow religious hysteria." Fortunately this theme will continue to in vite writers and speakers of all sorts. We shall learn more and more about old age and youth; but unless the future is not to be interpreted by the past, every individual will gather his final solution to this question from his own personal experience. YOUTH OR MATURITY? The question whether youth is to be pre ferred to a more mature period of life has fur nished food for controversy from the earliest times, and fortunately we are no nearer a final answer today than we were when Cicero glori fied old age. For this is one of the few ques- PEOPLE ARE often ungrateful to those who try to serve them. Dempsey was given a lukewarm reception in Berlin.

S. senate and have resolved to con centrate to make the fund cam paign a great success. In speaking of the passage of the resolution an article says: The committee on foreign rela tions of the United States senate unanimously agreed to report the Lodge resolution favorably to the senate. The following stnators were present: Lodge, McCumber, Brandegee, Johnson. Moses, Kel logg, McCormick. Hitchcock, Wil liams, Swanson, Pomerene and Pit man. Senator .New, who was ab sent, recorded his vote as 'favoring the resolution. Senator Wadsworth of New York, also absent, is under stood as favoring the resolution. Immediately after resportlng the resolution out of committee, Sen ator Lodge went to the senate which -was In session and asked for unanimous consent for the suspen sion of the rules and Immediate consideration of the resolution. This consent was given and the res olution declaring that the United States favored the establishment in Palestine of the National (Home for the Jewish people was unanimously adopted without discussion. The resolution as adopted reads as fol- ows : , "Resolved, That the United States of America favors the establishment n Palestine of the National Home for the Jewish ptople, It being clearly understood that nothing nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of non-Jewish communities In Palestine, an3 that tho Holy Places and religious buildings and sites In Palestine shall be ade quately protected.' The resolution Is a joint resolu tion requiring a vote in the house and the signature of the president. The house committee on foreign af fairs is expected to meet on May n ior action. The resolution was made the oc casion of demonstrations in everv -jewisn section of tht countrv. wnere inousands of Jew. rave evi dence of their Joy at the act of the senate. - Five hundred Zionist leaders reD resenting every section of Greater New York met Immediately at the headquarters of the Zionist Organi zation of America, 55 Fifth avenue 10 participate in an Impromptu jeieorauon. Among those who spoke were Xahun Sokolow, Louis Lipskv, Peter J. Schweitzer and Morris Rothenberg, chairman of the meet ing. Louis Lipsky declared that the senate's action was a signal for Jews throughout America to unite in a concerted effort for the Pales tine Foundation Fund, which will put into reality the sentiments ex pressed by the senate's resolution.' The staff of the Zionist organiza tion, and friends announced at the meeting that they were Inscribing the names of Mr. Louis LIpsky and .Mr. Abraham Goldberg in the Golden Eook of the Jewish National und In recognition of their serv ices in connection with the Pales tine resolution. One hundred women workers of the Palestine Foundation Fund campaign had a Jubilee metting at the horn of Michael Sallt. 1018 East 163rd street. New York City. Zion ist ralHes were held at the congre gation Beth Israel. Brooklyn, at the Brooklyn Jewish Center, and at the Congregation Bnai Yeshurln. SSth street and West End avenue. Mr. Edlin D. Stone of Boston, who had been informed In a teltgram from Mr. Redmond, secretary to Senator Lodge of the adoption by the United States senate of the Pal estine resolution declared that he and Mr. Robert Silverman of Bos ton had sent telegrams to all the Zionists of Boston, informing them of Senator Lodge's telegram. The Zionists of Boston arranged for an impromptu celebration for the same evening. Samuel Untermeyer, honary chair man of the Palestine Foundation Fund campaign, in expressing sa tis faction at the passage of the resolution said: "We are gratified and grateful not only for the action taken but ror the generous, princely way in which It was done- I take it that the favorable report of the resolu tion to the house on the 16th In slant. Its prompt passage there and its approval by the president, are now a foregone conclusion. it will greatly hearten and simplify the work of the leaders on the other side in securing from tht Allies the reconfirmation of the Balfour declaration and thus clear the way for the carrying out of our great constructive plans in Pales tine. "The effective work of the rever end gtntlemen who spent their money traveling to Washington for the malign purpose of misrepre sentlng and mlscrediting our great humanitarian cause has evidently borne rich and early fruit. It now takes its place in the scrap heap along side of many similar advent ures. The sanction that our move ment has thus once more received from our government after the most searching Investigation should and I am sure, will greatly aid the task we have In hand." That the action of the senate will Insure the final ratification of the British mandate for Palestine was the opinion expressed y Nalum Sokolow, president of the World Zionist Executive. "This expres sion of sympathy to tht Zionist cause by a great legislative body like the senate will undoubtedly lave a tremendous effect upon the whole civilized world. 0?resident Harding has previously given us lis assurance of sympathy to Jew ish aspirations In Palestine, and consequently the final adoption of this Joint resolution by the house and the signature of the president is a foregone conclusion." Nathan Strauss who was highly pleased with the action of the sen ate said: "The passing of the Lodge resolu tion fills with prld and aatls BUSHNELL'S ANIMATED CARTOONS IN EIGHT REELS THE BURNAQ II LA I KffiP' QUE S7 'ON OF THE I HOUR-MKDLMD V if5 777- CJN'T I GO I BRREFOOTED'Ml Y W.

Our government's official recognition of Zionist aims will bring new hope and new courage to our co-religionists In the Eastern countries. Senator Lodge deserves our everlasting thanks for the noble stand he has taken toward securing Justice and freedom for the Jewish people." The New Palestine, official organ of tht Zionist Organization, carries the following editorial on the sub ject in its issue of May 5th. entitled "America Speaks:" "Just as we go to press the news reaches us by wire that the resolu tion giving the moral support of America to the Jewish National Homeland in Palestine has been passed unanimously by the senate. "It Is the expected result, but the news Is none the less Inspiring. It was not to ' toe expected that the representatives of this democracy would turn iback a resolution which was In essence a declaration of In ternational democracy. America spoke in the resolution, and the voice of America could not he rais ed against the desperate appeal of a disinherited people. "it would be unbecoming to ex press thanka to the senate for its action. An act of pure Justice does r.ot rail for thanks. But It is snmithine haooy to dwell on. this spectacle of a great and disinterest ed nation uttering clean judgment !n the Immemorial case of the Jew vs. Exile. Xor would It fit the dignty of the occasion to make more than nftssine mention of the wretched and trifling opposition which devel oped during the hearings before the committee on foreign relations or the house. Let those that levelled thin accusation of un-American against the resolution now follow up their argument, If the dare, ana impeach for treason the senate af the United States. "More fitting at htis moment Is the thought of the new efforts which the event must inspire, A disinterested spectator vouches to day for the Justice of our cause. Let it be the will of the Jewish noDle. In whose hands the Issue rests, that Justice be done, so that the Instrument which Is to create the Jewish Homeland be made per fect for Its task.
