anski, J. R. Hiller, J. C. Lang, Victor
Staadcekcr, Hugo Loewy and Nathan
Eckstein it.s oftieers,--lhtmely, presi-
dent, vice-president, secretlu'y and
treasurer.
President's Report
Mr. Guthman read the annual re-
port which was hies( interesting,
replete with information of the ac-
tivities and hopes of the congrega-
tion. Discussions on various matters
followed, with Mr. Guthman's one
recommendation accepted.
Of the auxiliary services (luring the
Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur, the
)resident declared, that not only was
(;very Jew given the opportunity of
worshiping (luring the IIigh Holy-
days, trot ttiese services were well
attended and many favorable com-
ments have been heard. Credit was
given to the Ladies Auxiliary for their
effective work during the year. The
work of the religious school was
raise(t. "With Rabbi Koch as the
;ader and the inst/iration of our ex-
cellent teaching staff, great progress
has been made in creating and main-
taiuing a Jewish conscmusness and
culture with our growing generation,"
Mr. Guthman declared.
The present enrollment in the Re-
ligions School is 345 with an addition-
al enrollment of 80 in the graduate
departme, nt. The membership of the
congregation is composed of 375
active and 138 associate members.
The Memorial Fund.
It will be possible soon to expend
a certain amount of money for con-
templated improvements for the Hills
of Eternity Cemetery because of the
encouraging way in which the Me-
morial Fund is growing.
The Temple Foundation Fund.
Twenty-three donations were re-
ceived during the past year for the
Temple Foundation Fund, which was
started on October 4th at the sug-
gestion of Dr. Koch• It has grown to
a total of more than $2,500. Of the
sums contributed during the year
Mr. and Mrs. Victor Staadeeker and
Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Shemanski
marked the occasion of their wedding
mniversaries with gifts toward this
sum. The fund has been administered
during the past year by the following
committee: Sol Barde, chairman; S.
G. Spring, secretary, Hugo Loewy,
treasurer; Alfred Shomanski; ex-of-
ficio members, Mrs. N. Eekstein,
F. V. Fisher and L. S Schwabacher.
The Caroline Kline Galland Home
Whether the Caroline Kline Galland
can erect a new building at its present
site. or will be compelled to seek a
new location elsewhere rests now with
the Supreme Court, according to the
information given in the report of the
president. The highest cmlrt in the
hmd will render a decision as to
whether the building restrictions im-
posed hy the zoning ordinance of the
city of Seattle upon the property on
wh'ieh the Home is located will 'hold
under the circumstances. At. the
present time the Home is filled to
capacity and through laek of facilities
it has been impossible to take care of
all applicants.
The Caroline Kline GMland Home's
advisory l)oard consists of the presi-
dent and secretary of the Seattle
Itebrew Benevolent Assoeiation, and
tim l)resident and secretary of Teml)le
de Hirsch. The Pahbi of' Temple (to
Ilirsch is a reg/dar voting member of
this committee.
Seattle Jewish Fund.
Of the Seattle Jewish Fund, which
during the early part of the year,
largely through the persistent efforts
of Mr. Fred V. Fisher was inaugu-
rated, Mr. Guthman sltid: "This
organization marks a miles(ram in
the Jewish history of tiffs city. for it
is not only a constructive and worthy
endeavorl but it marks the first im-
portant move in which representatives
of every Jewish element in Seattle
participated harmoniously."
Union of American Hebrew
Congregations.
The importance of the Union of
American Hebrew Congregations was
stressed. This institution, Mr• Guth-
man said, was creating religious
literature; training religious leaders
and educating the children that they
too inay preserve their faith. Of the
uota to lie raised by the Congrega-
on amountbig to $2,000, little more
than half has/)con raised. Mr. Guth-
man appealed to the congeragtion to
show itself not unmindful of its obliga-
tions in what tie termed as "a grand
and unselfish endeavor."
A tribute to the efforts of Rabbi
Koch who h:ts served for twenty-two
!years conchlded Mr. Guthman's re-
port with the recommendation that
steps 1)e taken in a concrete way to
show the appreciation of the I)oard
and congregation.
General satisfaction wits expressed
at the progress of the congregation
and its varimls institutions. A trd)-
ute to lie efforts ef the l)oard was the
unopposed vote for the return of the
boar(t niend)ers v(hose terms were,
exl)iring.
The personnell of the committees
during the past year was as follows:

Mrs. Marks gave an interesting talk
also on Parliamentary Rule of which
she has a wide knowledge.
"If the will of the people is suffic-
ent]y strong it can compel the nations
to settle their prohlems by pacific
means," said Mr. Cotterill. "The
Briand-Kellogg Peace Treaty is for
the purpose of outlawing war, to
settle all prol)lems between nations
by pacific means although it is of
course, no absolute guarantee against
war. There will lie the moral obliga-
tion, the respect of dissenting n't-
tions for the will of the people for

Owing to the fact that Mr. Cotter[ll

joyed by the members• Meeting the

Seattle Symphony Orchestra
Association Being Formed
MEMBERS FOR SEATTLE SYMPHONY ASSOCIATION
ASKED BY MRS. EMILE MARX AT COUNCIL MEETING.
HE Seattle Symphony Orchestra will require an addi-
tional sum of $20,000 to carry out its program for the
season, so a Seattle Symphony Orchestra Association
has been formed and memberships solicited from all civic
organizations, with the fee to be one dollar or more. Mrs.
Emile Marx, whose interest in the Symphony orchestra
has been an active one, since its organization, is in charge of
this work for the Seattle Section, Council of Jewish Women.
At the meeting which took place on Wednesday afternoon at
Temple Center, November 7th she appealed for members
among the Jewish women.
"The Seattle Symphony Orchestra Association," Mrs.
Marx said, "is an organization that should have the support
of every individual who has the cultural good of our fair city
at heart. Its object is the maintenance of the Seattle Sym-
phony Orchestra for Seattle. The way to accomplish this
objective is to ask the members of all organizations and clubs
to become associates or members of this association by the
payment of one dollar annually. The sum needed is $20,000.
It sounds like a large amount and the sum of one dollar very
little to the individual, but each additional dollar will help to
make the required amount.
"When we think of the splendid auditorium concerts
created within the reach of everyone and of what is being
done for our children in the Saturday morning concerts, I
am sure no one hesitates to come forward with a dollar. It is
your duty as citizens of this wonderful city to do your share
for its cultural good."
M. Goodgliek will be chairman of
the new building conunittee which
was appointed at the general meeting
of the Seattle Tahnud Torah, hehl
Sunday evening, NoveInber 11th, in
the Talmud Torah Building.
Herman Kessler will be citrnpaign
manager and has already made sonn
tentative phuis on the procedure lie
will take. Other nmmbers of the
committee: I ) . Brenner, treasurer;
C. Miller, N. Anches, M. Bereh, A.
Sherman, Mrs. G. Shucklin, Mrs. M.
Berch and Mrs. Rose Steinfield.
Although there was an active dis-
cussion its to the selection of property
for the new building there was no
decision made. This point will how-
ever be taken tip later, and the com-
mittee is desirous to make the
selection that will be in accordance
with what the. majority desires.
Fred Bergman, chairman of the
Board of l)irectors, nmde the an-
nouncement that as a result of the
enthusbtsm at this frst open meeting
there will be a series held throughout
the year, especially to discuss ques-
tions of the canipaign. He again

was for twenty years llresident of the
Independent Order of B'nai B'rith.
Indeed he was a remarkable man--
a genius in Israel--he came to the
United States penniless, without a
family or prestige and with but lit-
tle schoohng. From the humblest
employment he passed into mer-
cantile life in one of the largest
cities of the United States, all the
while preparing himself for the great
and noble profession of the law. His
progress as a lawyer and as a keen
student of legal problems in the city
of Chicago and in the State of Illi-
nois, is phenomenal. Upon his death
he was ranked as the foremost leader
of the Chicago bar, with a practice
varied and lucrative.
"Adolph Kraus was more than a
mere B'nai B'rith member and lead-
er. He lived his B'nai B'rith'ism.
He knew that he could best serve his
people by taking an active part in
communal life, as his people's repre-
sentative in public position, and when
the call came from political head-
tarters requesting that he become
e corporation counsel of the great
City of Chicago, he placed aside his
vast personal and private practice
and assumed full charge of the legal
work of the city• On the Board of
Education he also sought to put into
actual practise the principles of his
B'nai B'rith'ism and, what was more
fundamental, his Judaism. And when
in later years, lie wits stricken with
ill health, he put aside his personal
comfort and continued to serve as
/resident of the organization that he
oved, in spite of a consuming ilhicss
that eventually caused his death.
"We who have reaped the benefits
of his tireless efforts, we who now re-
oice in the organizatinn that he help-
ed to perfect; can do little uiore than
pay tribute to his intellect and honor
to his name.
"The City of Chicago has lost a
great communal leader; the State of
Illinois has lost a chamt)ion of the
rights of the, downtrodden and op-
presse, d, and the whole worht has lost,
a leader, an idoalist and the grand
ohl nian of the B'nai B'rith organiza-
tion.
Three Men in a Boat.
i "Whenever I think of the B'ani
B'rith organization, I alP. reniinded
of the story of the three Inon who were
in a boat. One of these individuals
ersisted in attempting to bore a
ole iu the bottoni of the I)oat. When
reprimanded by his fellow passengers
lie replied that tie was only boring
It hole under his own seat. "Yes"
said his friends. "but when the water
rushes in it will drown us with you."
So it is with Israel. Its we'd and its
woe is dependent upon each of us.
Realizing this pecularity in Judaism
and Jewish life, the founders ef the
B'nai B'rith organization,--realizing
the necessity for an institution which
could play its part in keeping all men
from boring holes in the boai, which
would eventually allow'thc waters
to swarm in and destroy us.
)ifference Between Judaism and
Christianity.
We ofteu wonder what is the fund-
mental difference between Judaism
md Christianity. In ethics and
morality there is hardly any distine-
,ion. It is as wrong for it Christian
to nnlrdcr, steal and do the other
things which we regard its contrary
to public policy, its it is for a Jew to
