essages of Vital Importance

Jabotinsky and Warburg, Outstanding Figures in World Jewry, and Patterson, Christian Fighter for Jewish Rights, in Omaha . Next Wednesday and Thursday ; PUBLIC MEETING AT BRANDEIS THEATER I AND KOSHER BANQUET AT BLACKSTONE v< FEATURES OF COMMUNITY RECEPTION The Nahum Sokolow delegation will receive a royal welcome to Omaha. The delegation to Omaha consists of three men. One is a scientist, a student and a calm, deliberate scholar. One is a poet, a man of vision, yet a man of action,—brave, militant,'but idealistic throughout. The third is a staunch lover of the Jew and a firm advocate of Jewish rights, yet himself not a Jew. They come in the interest of the Jew, and they bring messages of gi-ave import to all Jews. Coming as co-workers with and associates of Nahum Sokolow, who is undoubtedly one of the world's greatest Jews, the delegation, which includes Lieut. Vladimir Jabotinsky, Col. J. H. Patterson and Prof. Otto Warburg, must, by reason of the achievements of its members for the cause of Jews the world over, command the respect and admiration of every Jew. ; Sketches of the members of the delegation, would be incomplete without a brief history of its chairman and guiding genius, I^ahura Sokolow. . Nahum Sokolow is a brilliant Hebrew publicist, a veteran of Hebrew journalism, founder and editor of ."Hacefirsh" in Warsaw, the leading Hebrew daily in the Diaspora, the • publication of which is continued to ' this day, due largely to Sokolow's tenaciousness, determination and undying love of the Hebrew world.
