AMERICANISM AND
JUDAISM SIMILAR

Rabbit Emil q. Hirsch. OF Chicago
delivered scholarly lecture Tues
Gay evening in Temple Beth FL on
"The relation of the Jew to American
civilization In which he declared
that there is nothing antagonistic be-
tween Judaism and Americanism. dis
putting the prophecy OF Lord Howe
that America will save the man, but
will chill and kill the Jew In the Rus
sian refugee
There is much similarity between
Americanism and judaism" said DR..
Hirsch. THE entrance Of the Pilgrims
into America was like that of the Jews
into Palestine.
I'm spirit the Pilgrims were really
Hebrews. Their whCic life was at
tuned to the old more than the new
testament principles. and it inspired
them to build new statehoods and new
types Of civilization. The Pilgrims
gave America the Sabbath. and 1t has
been a priceless institution to the
American workingman. The day of
the week makes no difference, so long
as the institution is there. Their Sab.
bath had more const-aint than was
necessary but II must never be lost"

TELLS FAKE STORY OF
FIGHT WITH BURGLAR

A thrilling story OF struggle with
a burglar, that ended in his escape
was told the police by Richard Man
uel. Of No. S5S East Grand boulevard
late Tuesday night, but 1t turns out
to be mere "moonshine."
Manuel, who is about 35, called the
department by telephone and asked
that officers be sent to his home. De-
tectives Golden and Bandemer were
assigned to the case. Manuel told
them Of hearing noise in one OF the
bedrooms upstairs. He said that he
crept stealtbily into the room, discov'
cred a burglar, and after terrific
struggle, the man escaped through the
front door.
The detectives, not fully convinced
of the truth OF the story, visited the
Manuel home again Wednesday morn,
ing, and Manuel finally admitted that
he had exaggerated the facts; that he
was convinced he heard a noise In
the room. but the struggle with the
burglar had happened only In his
imagination. His confession came af.
ter the detectives threatened to take
him TO police headquarters

extremely nervous, became frightened
