experienced cracksmen when a safe is
blown open.
No explosive was found.

not taken.

FEUERLICHT PLEADS
REAL AMERTCANISM

What Constitutes a Good Citizen
was the subject of an address before
members of the Indianapolis Chamber oe
Commerce by Rabbi NJ. NJ Feuerlichf,
following the regular weekly membership
meeting at the chamber this noon.
He remarked that he believed his
words would be most appropriate in view
of the fact that today is the one hun
dred and thirty first anniversary OF the
Inauguration of George Washington
America is not-smerely an economic
opportunity for life, liberty and pur-
suit of happiness, as many seem TO
think" said the speaker.
America is a spiritual ideal, a sig
nihcant and signifying social and moral
philosophy.
lit is the highest national expression
of mankind aspiring to be like unto the
divine.
The radical or parlor bolshevist may
not like the economic and social theory
upon which the world is operated, but il
that theory is part of the life and sys-
tenn of America and If he wants to be a
good citizen, he can not afford to ignore
and dlsavow it."
