IN AND AROUND TH PENINSULA
I:ecture on Jabotinsky.
The Revi ioni t monthly ~ocial function which was held in the Zionist Hall on Thursday, the 2nd inst., was ve:-y wel 1 attended.
The speaker of the evening wa Dr. H.
W.
Altschul, who delivered an addre s on"Jabotinsky.". The speaker, during the course of his address, said that if we wi hed to understand Reviefonism, we had fir t to study the life of its leader. Unlike other movements, the Revisioni t movement ·wa · linked up -with its founder. and whether Revisionism ucceeded or not,
J
abotin ky would always be remembered a the one who tried to return to Herzl' "pure"Zionism.
The speaker then gave an outline of JaLotinskys' biography. In Jabotin~ky' life one could note h o di tinct tages-a period of brooding, of deep study and following it a udden outburst and explo ion.
Speaking of the JewLh L gion, of which Jabotin ky was the founder, the pcakcr aid that the Balfour Dect ration ' n partl the re ult of th L gion. hen Dr. \ eiz- mann aid that th
J
wi h < ldi r \\i nLrav r than th "thousand R d Shirts" of Garibaldi, he voiced the opinion of every- one who came in contac \\ilh the Legion.
Jn l 920 Jabotinsky joined the Zionist E P<.:utive bccau:;e he felt that Zioni~m ' 'm unsafe in the hands of "the milky Zioni l . ··
While awav on a Zioni~t mission in America.
the Churchill White Paper wa9 i~sued. 011 his return h was a ked to sign the docu- ment. For a weel· Jabotinsky, unlike the other member , refused to do so, but finally he was pernuaded to affix his signature. It was at that time that he realised that co- operation with those Zionists' a~ impossible.
He left the Executive and again a period of brooding followed. Suddenly, in 1925, he appeared as the founder of Revi~ionism, a movement aiming at a return to Herzl's ideals. J abotirn~ky set himself the task of Lamping out the ·'Shtadlanuth" policy and we could rest assured that he would succeed in that.
Mr. R. Kotlowitz also spoke.

When the ingenuity of the film craftsman is allied to the imagination of the dreamer or the scientist, something quite out of the ordinary results. "F.P.I." a most unusual film which is coming to the Plaza on Mon- day, is the outcome of such a combination and the daring story is revealed in a series of thrilling and dramatic episodes which only the screen can portray with the vivid- ness of reality.
