"The N'rw Testament was written, according to the best information ob tained, by scholars uboiil loU years after the vent occurred, and it tiiinht be tinned merely a collection of folk lore, traditions, handed down irom futher to son. and this may account tor tho many discrepancies that abound In that book. There, are many ooiiflictiiifr statements In th Now Testament. Tor Instance, it overlooks that tho Jew was no longer in poner under Roman rule to pass or execute the sentence of death. With regard In the crucifixion, let me point out lhat crucifixion was never tho mode of niiniKhment amonz the Jews.

Tlirre Is no word for crucifixion In the He-braic language. There are words for ntber forms of death penalty, but not for crucifixion. The method of crucifixion was recognized and practiced bv the Romans from early times and it was the penalty administered, or the form of execution aaminisiernu, ny Romo as the penalty In cases of sedition, mutiny and rebellion. "The Jewish Court could never have passed such a death sentence upon Jesus or anybody else according to the religion of tho Jews themselves. Accordng to one version in the New Testament, the trial of Jesus, took place on the eye of the Passover, and according to another version it took nlace on Passover.

According to strict Jewish ritual adhered to and never from, no court case nor trial of any kind could be conducted on a holiday or on the Sabbath. The same thing applies to the day of crucifixion in regard to which tho New Testament forgets. Pilate Weak Coward. "One version says the execution of Jesus took place on Friday, us the eve of the Sabbath, and the other claims that It was on the eve of the Passover. This is also against the Jewish law which prohibits the execution of the death penalty of any kind being carried out on the holiday or on the eve.

of the Sahbath. "Another vital discrepancy appears concerning the so-called trial. Under the Jewish law, it is not permissible to admit tn cases involving the death penalty circumstantial evidence, even the confession of the accused was not sufficient to convict, and it required two witnesses who could testify that the defendant had been warned he- Hptrtt of INCLUDING SUPPER DE LUXE, ENTERTAINMENT, DANCING' MUSIC, PRIZES and SOUVENIRS $5 r.ortr u.j It.al 11- W-i-a- Mr.rt ii4 ha ana JT Ivl.i lit IW wl.B 4l arleallil.

Her peed at the trial trip astonished thu naval world.

The Government had ontracted for hir to make 20 knots, but sho averaged ill. 92 knoU over a 37-mile course. Tho Brooklyn wus constructed by tho Messrs. Cramp at Philadelphia. At Santiago the Ilrooklyn W83 otrnck with enemy shells 26 times, and she the only American killed the fleet action.

The Spaniards believed that the Prooklyn was the only vessel that could overtake them in their flight from the liar-bor and they had been ordered to concentiat.e ail of their lire upon her. Chpi.

Kulate admits, however, that spite- of the combined efforts of his battle fleet the Brooklyn drove the and her sister ship, the Oquendo, hard ushore with her crashing broadsides. The British first lord of the admiralty after the Spithead naval review admitted that England had no shins that could equal thi Brooklyn, and he advised the constructfon of four armored cruisers almost exactly llko her. Although the Brooklyn went out of commission in 190B, she was sent to Vladivostok in November, 1917, to protect American lives and property, American Iron Ac Steel Com pany oi uaKiana, oougnt the Brooklyn.

science cannot compromise. The world, as represented at this Conference, must either accept the principle or reject it; half way measures are Impossible and unmoral. To this position the British delegation will adhere to the end. It began the presentation of its case through Lord Lee yesterday before the naval committee; It continued to elucidate it today; it will present it to a larger audience when the next plenary session is held, and there it will show why Great Britain looks upon the submarine with horror and why it asks that this weapon of piracy should be outlawed by civilization. But while maintaining this position Creat Britain will not be an obstructionist or do an) thing to delay the work of the Conference by a single hour.

If France must have a submarine tonnage disproportionate to her battleship ratio even if she should go to the cxtr me length of demanding that she. i. permitted to build submarines without restriction as to number or size, r. nd that proposal I enderstand her delegation has been Irstruoted to advance still there wib be no obstruction on our part. We shall simp.y say that We must take corresponding measures of protection; that we must have the neoessan antisubmarine weapons, light cruisers other erart, which, from their na-iuie, cannot be used for offensive pui'pones, v.

It typifies, concretely, good will to men and grows by being practised. It has been our privilege, this Christmas season, to help more people than ever before to make others happy judging from the fact that on this Christmas Eve, when the lights of the tree are already beginning to twinkle, and Santa Claus' sleighbells are already heard tinkling in the distance, we have reached a new high mark for holiday business. We are sincerely grateful to all those people who, to the number of many thousands in excess of all previous years, have given us this new proof of their friendliness, and have made this store more than ever an institution to which Brooklyn people in particular naturally turn for aid in their shopping problems.

And we are equally grateful to our own splendidly helpful store force, who by their untiring effort, cheerfully given, have made possible this vastly increased measure of service. To one and all we say "Thank You!" from the bottom of our hearts; and again, at the close of our 56th holiday season, voice the centuries-old happy wish Claridge Restaurant Bushwick 4093 13 Palmetto Street 3 Doors from Broadway BROOKLYN, N.

(Copyright by 7ie Brookltya Earle and I'Mladelahia I'ubiic Lrdijer. 19UJ Washington, Dec. 23 More than once Great Britain has been the champion of lost causes Involving a principle, and here today in Washington she Is fighting a lOHt cause for a principle effecting the whole of civilization. The British delegation, in urging outlawry of the srJhmarine, know that the other four naval powers are against them; that not only will the submarine tonnage of the world not be decreased, but, on the contrary, it will be greatly Ii creased over that now in existence; but that has not swerved them from the line of action adopted at the beginning of th Conference. Their altitude has been splendid and must rnake every Englishman proud thero has been no bargaining by the British delegation.

Mr. Balfour, whose work here has been extraordinary, Who has shown the highest qualities of tact, skill and understanding of men's minds, lias refused to listen to any suggestion to put the submarine In the scale against a concession or a supposed advantage. The submarine, according to the British view, is not policy or polities', tv vr'lH'-'P'Ye. princip!
