Oberammergau, Bavaria March t.
Is.? ?By The Associated Press).? f
Preparations for the first of the post tj
war revival of the Passion Play have ^
progressed sufficiently to enable the j y
committee of elders to announce that
the final dress rehearsal will be held, f
May 9. The first regular prformance : ^
will be given on May 14. i
Thirty-five thousand applications'
for seats and sleeping nccommoda-' .
tior.s already have been received from I o
abroad and. while the local manage-j
merit has not yet received Indicationsis
to the extent to which Germans
will patronize the productions of th-> ^
play, it assumes that German atten-ia
nee will more than quadruple the f
foreign patronage.
Anticipating an unusual influx of i (|
visitors in July and August, the (
management has decided to give j
Wednesday performances during j
these months.
Economic conditions have obliged !f
tin- village elders considerably to am-k
plify their directing stafT, no so much' ^
as concerns the production of the! j
play as lo solve the problem of oe-jt
commodating thousands of visitors
for whom the comforts nnd conven-j,
u ncos i travel ueiorc tno war are:
not available. i
The conditions under which the t
play will be revived this year have c
shocked the rural simplicity of these; t
peasant play producers and, while <
detorn.ined to prevent the sacred en
terprise from bccominp a baseh s
commercial alfair, they are now br* 1
pinninp to realize that the war's af t
termath has produced an economic j
environment with which they are t
compelled to reckon. ^
'Die municipality of Oberammer- t
pail has premptorily rejected a pro- j
position that it levy a tax on foreign t
visitors which, it declares would be <
out of harmony with the origin an 1
traditions of the play and also would
conflict with the purpose of the pros- ,
cut revival which is ropardod as one j

Jewish Relief Fund
Surpasses any Former EffoH
. New Yo#ic, March 19.?Actual cast
and pledges totaling $14,009,624.19 il
hand, and * total of $17,310,000 as
aured by April 1, is the record of th<
rational campaign for $14,000,000 fo:
relief of Jewish war, pogrom and fam
ine sufferers in Eastern Europe, Na
tional Chairman Davis A. Brown an
nounced tonight in a preliminary re
port. Eight of the 48 states are stil
to- complete their campaign. Ove
$1,000,000 w&a given by non-Jews, Mr
Brown said, in this enterprise whicl
surpasses any humanitarian effort bj
the Jews or America.
"This result," says Mr. Brown ii
summing up, "is surely a wonderfu
demonstration of human sympathy o
which Americans and Jews in partic
ulnr may well feel proud, especiall;
as it came as a time of acute eeo
nomic depression, following a porioi
of unexampled expansion and pros
perity.
"Throughout the length and brendtl
of the land the .lews of America havi
rallied to the call of their leaders a
at no other time during the past sevei
years."
Mr. Brown made his report publi
before returning to his home in Do
troit, where he will conclude the cam
paign. He, has been at his desk a
national headquarters here since th
opening of the big drive early last Oc
tober, when Vie cancelled a Europeai
trip to assume the chairmanship.
"Practically every state," declare
the report, "has either raised or ex
ceeded its quota. The only exception
have been whore the economic condi
tions were such that our people wcr
absolutely unable to raise th
amount."
The extraordinary character of th
Jewish effort is shown in an analysi
of previous"Trelief campaigns present
ed in the report. It says:
"Beginning in 1914, there was pre
jected throughout this country a sc
ries of campaigns, many of which ha
back of them the government of th
United States, as well as the goverr
ments Of nur Milieu Snmc r\f
nad a straight patriotic appeal, an
all were conducted during a period c
the greatest prosperity this countr
has ever known. Yet the large.1
amount of money raised per capit
during this period was approximatel
$1.50. Some of the campaigns pre
duced a per capita as low as oc. othei
10c, 25c and 60c."
The two previous large Jewish rt
lief campaigns, in 1917-18, and 1911
20, Mr. Brown pointed out, produce
$10,000,000 and $12,000,000 respo<
lively, the latter being a non-sectaria
appeal. He continued:
"During both of these campaign:
we were either in the midst of th
war, with th^. spirit of giving deve
oped to an umfcually high point, or vv
had a condition of prosperity whic
lent itself very^ asily towards givin
liberally. "* *
"When the campaign of 1921 wa
projected, this country had rcache
the lowest ehb economically that
had touched in eight years. Non-en
ployment was widespread throughov
the country, there were failures b
the thousands. Yet the 3,000,000 Jew
of this country have contributed neai
ly $0 per capita, as compared wit
$3.30 and $4.00 respectively in thei
previous campaign. When we cor
sider the further fact that the Jew
of this country have participated mot
liberally in every non-sectarian aj
peal, there can be only one conclusion
that we have measured up to our ri
sponsibility; that we stand ready a
all times to d>) our duty as Jews an
as citizens of this country.
"The response to the appeal mad
on behalf of our suffering brethren l
Eastern Europe is proof to the worl
thftt the interest of the Jew in the suf
fering of his people is not dependen
on his own pn-.-perity."
A- t- -t- -1# A % 9 .
V7ii oenau oi nis associates Chair
man Brown pays special tribute t
"The many non-Jews who have no
cnly given of their money to the o>
tent of over a million dollars, but wh
have supported us in every way."
"Last, but not least," he adds, "w
want to thank the newspapers of thi
country which have given us freel
of their valuable space, and whie
have been ready at all times to tel
the story in such a manner as to brini
forth the greatest response."
Englishmen Eat Much Less
Beef Than Formerly
London, March 18.?A song tha
was very popular in London musi
halls years ago . xtolled the virtues o
the "Roast Beef of Old England,
andvociferously declared that it ac
counts for the freedom that "runs ii
the blood of the Englishman."
It is generally believed that quit
as much of the rich, red blood of free
dom runs in his veins as in the goo<
days of old but it can no longer b
said that it is the "Roast beef of oh
England" that accounts for its pres
ence there.
In fact- manv knnrlwlimon V?i?*
especially Londoners, eat much less o
English beef than they do of beef tha
comes from other countries that ari
far distant and which is brought t<
England frozen in refrigerators.
A report of the "frozen meat trade'
which has just teen published say;
importations in the United Kingdorr
in 1921 exceeded all previous record!
with a total of 1,917,414 tons of beef
mutton and lamb. The home product
was estimated 1,056,400 tons.
In London district, 85 per cent ol
the meat marketed tytme from overseas.

Young King in N?*d of Cash
Sofia, March l5.-~The young King
, Boris of Bulgaria is so much in need
j of reAdy cash to maintain his modest
. household that he has sold some of his
, automobiles and all of the wines and
r liquors belonging to his father, the
. exiled Ferdinand American visitors
. to Bulgaria have been surprised to
. ftnd old vintage wines and rare cham.
pagnes from the royal palace on the
1 tables of Sofia's hotels at $2.00 a
r bottle.
The former Gear Ferdinand, now
t barred from Bulgaria, enjoyed in his
^ days of imperial power all the luxuries
and extravagunces of the royal sover,
eigns of the Elizabethan age. But his
1 son, who is beloved of all the people
f for his simplicity and lack of ostenta.
tion, lives almost as humbly and plainy
ly as one of his peasants. Bulgari.
ans say that when the father fled
j the country, just before the armistice
. he took with him all the crown jewelry,
money and realizable assets and
h left the son nothing.
e Boris' civil list is much below the
s salaries received by American corporation
presidents. The young ruler
has repeatedly refused financial asc
sistanco from the government because
_ he fell, the country's need of econ_
om.v and conservation was too great.
i He is cloinir evcrvthinp- ho r>?n to mnU
e both ends meet. The various palaces ,
. built by his father ate no>^,he propn
erty of the state, otherv^lro he could <
realize something on their sale. !
s In his desire to set an example of ]
_ economy and frugality to his people,
s the king for a long time has stopped 1
i_ all entertainments and court func- j
c tions. He maintains a modest housep
hold of three or four servants and one
or two guards.
p Boris in just pnst. 27. His people I
? say he has all the virtues of his moth- |
_ er and none of the characteristics of !
his father. He is frail of body and j
delicate in features. He has a com>_
polling charm of manner and an ear(j
nestness and sincerity that win ine
stant admiration.
His chief motive of life is work. He
y, is never idle. If he isn't busy with
the affairs of state, he is studying.
,f Horticulture, natural history and en
v gineering are his hobbies. Within the
palace grounds at Vrania he has had
a a nnrrow-gauge railroad built for his
y own experimental purposes. He is ab).
sorbed in the subject of engineering
s and is familiar with most of the big
i American railway systems.
The king led such a lonely life that
not long ago Prime Minister Stambou^
l<sy, who looks after the youthful,
?.. monarch with a paternal solicitude,
n took Boris' sisters from their father
Ferdinand, and brought them back to
s Sofia to keep the king company.
