sioned the formation of many new plans for Jewish colonization. Jewish relief organizations have had under advisement the coloniza­ tion of Jews in Mexico, and this plan is receiving much attention in the Jewish press. In other quarters a movement, said to be sponsored hy a gift of $400,000, has for its object the colonization of Jews, on a large scale, in the Crimea. Personally we feel that colonization of Jews can never be successfully ac­ complished except in. Palestine itself, and various Jewish relief organiza­ tions should band together (instead of dividing their forces) for the recon­ struction of their “ Home-land.”— (J. A. Y.) New Jewish City The city of Tel-Aviv, which in 1909 was founded by a group of Russian Jews on a sandy waste near Jaffa in Palestine, is now a thriving place of more than 15,000 inhabitants. Of its 1500 buildings, nearly a third were built last year. Most of the residences are two-family concrete houses of the kind common in America. The city has a modern water supply and elec­ tric-light plant, and a sewer system. Its population is entirely Jewish.— Youth’s Companion. Marranos Seek Return to Faith As has been previously reported in the Jewish Chronicle (London); a large number of Marranos, resident in Portugal, the descendants of Jews who, in the 14th century, denied their Judaism and pretended, to have adopt­ ed Christianity, have requested the Chief Rabbinate at Jerusalem to sanc­ tion their return to Judaism and set­ tlement in the land of Israel. The following is the text of the letter sent to the Jerusalem Rabbinate: “ The baptism of our forbears was only pretended because of the terror of the inquisition and the auto-da-fe. In the depths of our hearts, however, we, their descendants, have maintained our love and our loyalty to our Jewish people. We marry only among our­ selves, and even if we are baptized as children in Catholic churches, are mar­ ried according to Catholic rites, and are laid in our graves as Catholics, we feel ourselves Jews more than ever.” — California Jewish Review.
