Thursday night an informal dinner
wa stendered Dr. Henry Cohen of Gal-
veston at the Columbian Club by Her-
bert Marcus president of the Con-
gregation Emanu-El. Fifty guests
were present and the sum of $30000
was subscribed to relieve the indebt-
edness of Temple Emanu-El.
While in the city Dr. Cohen address-
ed the Lions' Club Friday noon and
conducted the services at Temple
Emanu-El Friday night and Saturday
morning. Friday night Dr. Cohen
chose for his subject the two paint-
ings by John Sargent in the Public
Library of Boston "The Synagogue"
and "The Church." While the work of
the artist was praised in the portrayal
of "The Church" which is represented
by a young woman with large eyes
looking into the future and angels
smiling upon her. Dr. Cohen severely
criticised the portrayal of "The Syn-
agogue" as being both untrue to his-
tory and apt to cause an incorrect im-
pression to those who visit the Boston
Public Library.
"The Synagogue" so strongly con-
trasted with its companion painting is
symbolized by an old woman with
blindfolded eyes a broken sceptre in
her hand a tottering crown on her
head and broken tablets of the law
crushed to her breast while frowning
cheribums look down upon her.
Dr. Cohen is widely known for his
humanitarian work and his interest in
immigration work is a speaker of
great ability and his talks proved of
great interest. He left Saturday night
for his home in Galveston.

day evening November 11th honor-
ing Mr. and Mrs. Jules G. Hexter.

Mr. Block was a man of sterling qual-
ities as was evidenced by the respon-
sible position which he held at E. M.
Kahn for the past twenty-five years.

set he was one of the most popular
and well liked young men of the city.
Highly esteemed by all for his kind
and generous nature his many sor-
rowing friends expressed their sincere
sympathy to the bereaved family by

nations to charity in his memory.
Rabbi Believes Bolshevism Will Not
Gain Foothold Here.
That Bolshevism will never gain a
foothold in the United States because
of the united spirit and patritoism of
the American people Is the belief of
Dr. Henry Cohen of Galveston rabbi
of Temple 'B'Nai Israel an authority
on immigration questions as well as
psychological instincts of foreigners.
"With reasonable effort the Ameri-
can people could suppress Bolshevis-
tic agitation in its embryonic stage
and completely eradicate all disturb-
ances akin to the menace" Dr. Cohen
said. All the American people need to
do is to enforce their laws and they
will have nothing to fear from Bol-
shevism or its allied forces.
"The American people are too de-
voted to their country are too single-
minded to permit their being influen-
ced by Bolshevistic propaganda. They
would fight Bolshevism just as they
combated the armies of the Hun. This
being the case Bolshevism would be
the last thing to take root here and
we have little cause to fear any harm
from it."
Dr. Cohen left Saturday night for
Galveston after having spent three
days here. He addressed the Lion's
Club Friday and spoke at a meeting
at Temple Emanu-El Friday night and
yesterday morning.
