Looting Of Safe
AT Nurses Club
Night Superintendent Breaks
Out of Her Wire Bind
ings and Gives Alarm
That Makes Bandits Flee
Robbers Leave Stolen Car
Goodness of Louise Grumpy
in Early-Morning Adverl-
ture Wins Commendation

An attempt to loot the safe of the
Central Club for Nurses, at 1872 East
Forty-fifth Street, was frustrated early
yesterday morning when Mrs. Louise
D. Grumpy, night superintendent, freed
herself from piano wire bonds and,
still gagged, summoned help. Four
masked men, after q half-compIeted
assault OH the safe, made their escape
as the alarm was given, leaving their
tools. finger prints and taxicab, al
legged to have been stolen.
Congratulations were showered on
Mrs Grumpy last night for her bravery.
Mrs. William Fellowes Morgan, head
of the Y. ". c. A., which runs the Cen
trail Club, paid her visit and made
this statement:
Mrs. Grumpy is a remarkably brave
woman and we all feel very proud of
her. Her experience at the hands of
the bandits was enough TO shake any
ones presence Of mind. She watched
the men as they dashed up the stairs
to the sitting room on the floor above.
She saw them return with several rugs.
She was carried into an adjoining
room and remembers hearing two ex-
ploslons. When everything seemed
quiet she twisted herself out of the
wire, made her way to balcony and
forced open window.
She caught the atte ntion of letter
carrier passing by. He summoned a
pollceman, who removed the gag. When
they learned what had happened they
made a search of the premises, but the
bandits had escaped. 1t was necessary
10 use soap and water before hand
cuffs could be slipped off Mrs
Grumpy's hands.
Mrs. Grumpy was reading at the tele-
phone switchboard around 4 a. m. when
she heard what she thought was an am
Dulance pulling up at the door In an
instant the four robbers came hurriedly
IN and covered her with revolvers. Be-
fore she had time to scream she was
gagged, handcuffed and bound to q
wicker chair in a large room near the
main hall. She could hear the men bor-
Ing into the safe. 1t was evident that
another ten minutes Of uninterrupted
work would have given them time to
get away with the contents of the slA
feet-high safe which stands in the Of
'Ce al uhe entrance or the club. They
had bored three holes into the lock
mechanism, broken the combination and
ripped the hinges.
Mrs. Grumpy was too excited to give
an accurate description of the men,
since they we're all masked and wore
low-peaked caps.
They are presumed by the police to
have run towards Lexington Avenue.
Captain John Duane, in charge of de-
tectives at East 5ist Street station,
ordered all his available men over to
the club. Finger prints were taken and

Their Program for Addi-
tional Wage Reductions

Proposed Schedules. to Ap-

Excepting New England

Railroad executives are planning to
make further reductions in freight
rates, amounting to, approximately
$3o0,o00,0eo, in the event that their
plans for cutting wages finally are
approved by the United States Rail
road. Labor Board. This figure will in

ing of the Association of Railway Ex-
ecutives, but does not taks into ac-
count the aggregate reductions OF
s20o,eo0,oeo put into effect since the
roads were returned to their owners
on September 1, 1920.
An official of the association ex-
planned yesterday that the latter figure
represents approximately the redue-
tions that were made either in antici.
patton :of. or; following the 121A per
cent wage cut of last July, to which
the unions objected with the strike
threat that finally was withdrawn.
This official made clear that the
$55,ooo,ooo rate cut, to be. put into ef-
feet Immediately does not include re-
ductions already made, and is the esti-
mate Of traffic officials who have been
studying the rate situation with the
view of translating further curtailment
of wages into lower freight rates.
The new rates, which are expected
to be formally approved by the Inter
state Commerce Commission within a
day or so, will apply to hay, straw, al
falfa, manufactured tobacco, cotton
and cottonseed products, fresh fruits
and vegetables, dried fruits and .vege-
tables. horses, hogs, poultry, butter
cheese, wool and other farm products.
-'None Of the previous adjustments, y
said an official. of the association,
'.cover the country as whole, but the
new adjustments will do So, except, Of
course, in the New England district
where traffic moving wholly within
that territory is exempted because of
the precarious financial condition OF

Merchant, Shot in Holdnp,

Morrell, member of the Hazlet Trad

Long Branch Hospital from a bullet
wound inflicted by one Of two masked
men who held him up Tuesday night

shipped, nor does her conception
of social justice yet obtain.
Unlike the dominant religion
the motif of Judaism is not the
world hereafter, but the world
here and now, with its consequent
immediate duties, obligations and
responsibility.
Never in history has the Jew
been accorded such freedom of op-
portunity as in America. If every
other sentiment fails him graft
tude alone should impose upon
every Jew the personal obligation
to repay to America, with interest
compounded, what America has
been to him and his. If every
Jew in America were to yield his
life for his country's good he
would not be paying Jewry's debt.
But America does not ask of him
that he make the supreme sacri-
flee; she does, however, ask of
him, as she does of every one of
her other citizens, that he live for
her and that he give her the best
that is in him. America of all
countries does not ask it's citizens
to conform to single norm-to a
single type. On the contrary,
what it demands is that each
group shall contribute to the ma
tional welfare all the fine things
of mind and spirit that have come
to them from their forefathers.
Unfortunately, there are many
among us who misread their
Americanism and misunderstood
their Judaism.
They proclaim assimilation as
the test of Americanism. But
there are two kinds of assirnila-
ton, and those who advocate as
similation as the end of American
ism too often fail to distinguish
the two. There is the passive as
similation which is mere conform
ity to pre-established order; but
there is also an active and pro-
gressive assimilation which con-
sists in bringing to the new or
der, contributing to, and combin-
ing with it, all that is good and
fine and true in the old.

dominant in the world today, even
as the number of it's nominal fol-
lowers extend over the earth and
rule in politics and in finance, that
the bloodiest pages in history
would recently not have been
written?
But Our problem today is not
with Christianity, but with Juda-
ism. With us the situation is not
greatly different. The same in
difference prevails. We have ac-
quired the habit of whining inces-
sanity because we are misunder-
stood and exaggerate the pin
pricks to which we are OCCASION
ally subject as though the most
important thing in our lives for us
is to be liked and petted. Too Of
ten do we hear the statement and
are solaced by the thought that
collectively we are as decent as
our neighbors. We listen with
too much satisfaction to what
may be; perfectly true, that Our
vices are no greater and no worse
than our neighbors'; that if we
make a god of business, so do
our neighbors; that if we keep
holy but one day a week and pro-
fame the other six, so do our neigh
bors; that if we at times neglect
Our obligations to our city, State
and country, so do Our neighbors.
Idealism First.
Because others fail to measure
up to the idealism held before
them should be no excuse for us.
Idealism-not manufacturing nor
storekeeping- the primary
business of the Jew.
Without attempting to pass
judgment upon our friends of
other faiths and creeds we GER
tainly must recognize that our re-
sponsibility is greater than theirs.
A minority must have an excuse
for it's existence, and that excuse
must be found not in the distant
past, but in the present, and in the
future. .~,.~.
The spirit of Judaism has, not
found it's fulhllment even though
it's laws, it's ethics and it's theol-
ogy underlie modern civilization.

An address before the Council of
the Union of American Congregations
at Buffalo, N. Y, on Wednesday, May
25. Mr.. Aaron is a member of the
Board of Education of Pennsylvania,
Vice President of the Pittsburgh
Board of Education, and also Vice
President of Temple Rodeph Sholom
of that city. He is also head Of the
largest pottery in the United States.
Finer than anything in Amer
lea, though itself in the nature of
the intangible, is the Spirit of
America. Occasionally men have
caught glimpses of it; but more
frequently the great masses of the
people in their chase after fame
and fortune have completely lost
sight of it, and have remained un
touched by it's lofty purposes.
Yet withal, the few of those
who have the vision which en-
ables them to see and feel it, and
by their lives express it, know it
to be as real as the products of
farm, mine and factory, and in the
ultimate to be of greater value to
the world than all these and more.
Though it is seldom found in the
counsels of the state and nation,
or. in the market place, it yet un-
derlies the best of Our thinking,
and is standing challenge to ma
tional honor and idealism.
The Spirit of America exists
and is as indestructible as matter
and as forceful as energy, and will
in the fullness of time work out
it's purpose to the glory of God
and the nation. IT'S pity, none
the less, that so few of the vast
hosts of America sense the poten-
tia1ity of Americas greatest gift
to the world-the Spirit of Amer
ica-and that there are not more
to hasten the day when the ideals
spelled by it shall be embraced by
the whole world.
And so, too, might it be said of
the spirit of Christianity. Though
we do not believe in it's dogmas,
though we have been the most
persistent opponents of some of
it's theological principles, yet we
cannot but appreciate the worth
of it's moral teachings, and must
therefore deplore the fact that
these teachings are honored by
our Christian neighbors more in
the breach than in the observance.
The followers of Christianity gen.
orally are content to give it but
lip service. Unfortunately, too
often their attachment is of the
sort that discredits and dishonors.
Who can deny that were its spirit

worth something without
which our national life would be
poorer. We shall not serve the
cause of America truly unless we
see that something is preserved.
The thing that we Jews have in
herited-the thing that we Jews
must preserves our religion.
"a new age has come which no
man can forecast. But the past is
the key to it." And Our religion
lies at the center of our past. We
cannot afford to ignore it, because
in it lies our strength and inspira-
ton.
Religion in Foreground.
We shall not build our factories
and our great department. stores
any faster by destroying our an
cient landmarks. No people
and no group-that loses hold Of
it's traditions and, it's ideals can
long survive.
"Where there is no vision" the
proverb runs, "Where there is no
vision the people perish"
Those of us who maintain that
we are Jews by religion only. and
who reject the doctrine Of race
Zionism, certainly have an addi4
tional obligation to reassert the
central function of Jewish. exist
ence, namely, to be religious
factor in the lives of the people.
This cannot be done effectively
unless we, the laymen, unite with
the rabbis in placing religion in
the foreground of our thinking.
We are what we are because
of the intensity of faith of our
fathers. Without their earnest
ness Jewry would long since have
passed off the stage Of history.
We expect too much of Our rab-
bis. AS our teachers we have a
right to demand of them that they
be an example to us, but it is con-
trary to the teachings of our faith
that we should expect them to be
the priest warden of the temple
altar or the vicarious delegated
worshipper for the congregation.
Vicarious' atonement is a doc
trine that we reject with all the
weight of Our historic past, and
we believe that there is no duty
imposed upon the rabbi that is not
incumbent upon every one Of us.
A people that for thousands of
years has recognized it's election
as priestly people and holy ma
ton, cannot lightly reject its past,
nor can it idly stand by-hoping
