D.. c. Jews TO OBSERVE
FEAST OF TABERNACLES
Succoth Celebration Begins in Lo'
cal Synagogues Today and
Continues Eight Days.

| The Feast of Tabernacles, or Succoth,
the forerunner of the Jewish Thanks
giving day, is being observed In the
local synagogues beginning today this
evening and continuing eight days.
The first and eighth days contitute
| the holy convocations in the reform
synagogue. Orthodox congregations,
however. celebrate October and as
well as the two concluding days of
| this festival. The intervening week.
days are observed with semi-religious
| ceremonials. Sincere attempts are
made to construct booths and to dwell
therein. following literally the in1unc-
| tion set forth in the Bible. This custom
has been continued with more or less
| fidelity until modern times. Definite
! measures to revive the practice are
now underway.
The Feast Of Tabernacles was In the
| biblical era the great harvest festival
| of autumn, when the people focked
to the central sanctuary in solemn
procession. carrying palms and other
plants.
No matter what transitions the
festival has undergone. in synagogue
and home today 1t retains it's original
| character as a season of gladness.
The joyous gratitude paid to God for
His protection of Israel during the
| forty years wandering through the
| wilderness has expanded into thanks
! giving for His guidance throughout
the forty centuries of Israels pill
grimage through all countries. This
rejoicing eliminates on the last day
| in the feast of rejoicing in the law,
| when the annual cycle Of readings
| from the Pentateuch Is completed.
The significance retained by this
feast to this day is the sublimity Of
! the thought interviewer In the ritual
| and particularly the dignity and no
| bility with which labor and human
effort are invested. Gods bounties
are abundant and the earth is full
of the riches Of the Lord. But it
! is ordained that none of these bless
ings are obtainable unless effort is
put forth to possess them.
All synagogues are appropria tely
decorated for this festival and In
all religious schools special features
mark the celebration. Pageant and
harvest festival programs are a few
| of the varied entertainments arranged
| for this autumn feast.

REAcT|ON|STS STUNNED,
DECLARES GOMPERS
Labor Leader Says Next Session
Unable to Pass Any "Stand-
Pat" Legislation.

Organized labor has stunned reac-
tionists so effectively as to make GER
tain that the next Congress will be
unable to enact any piece Of i'm
portant reactionary legislation. Let
the reactionary politicians remember
that labor has a militant, progress
sive organization in every state In
the Union.
This was the declaration of Presi-
dent Samuel Gompers, spokesman OF
organized labor, in statement is
sued yesterday.
He cites that labor has already ac-
complished one definite thing Of tre-
can people" That is the stunning OF
reactionists. Then ne adds:
That is an achievement worth
much, not only to labor. but to all OF
our people. We maintain that our
interests and the interests Of the
masses of the people are identical.
Labor expressed itself in the pri-
maries by opposing candidates whose
records indicated a state of frozen
reaction and who were clearly not In
harmony with the demands and needs
of labor
Labor opposed New in Indiana
McCumber in North Dakota and New
berry in Michigan. Labor is for Rob
ert NJ La Toilette. Hiram johnson
and Smith in New York and Pinchot
in Pennsylvania. 1t is for Frazier ir
North Dakota and for Brookhart ir
Iowa. These are but examples of oul
choice. Labor studies the record and
endeavors to give it's support to those
who are worthy of trust.
Labor is not partisan to party
it is partisan to principle.
I'VE are fighting for the common
welfare in this campaign. fighting
those who have befriended and shield
ed the grafters, the profiteers, the ex'
ploiters, the would slave masters
the bourbons We are fighting fol
those who stand for freedom. fol
progress. for equality Of opportunity
for honesty and fairness in industry
We oppose those who are for the In.
famous Kansas court idea and all who
are for compulsory or slave labor.

CONN. HOOTCH IS A
 FARCE SAYS AGENT
Chief YelloWly Says Stuff Made
 Here Is Terrible

Washington. D. C., June eo,-- "There may be liquor in Connecticut, but you can take 1t from me, it's no good.
 That is the way E, c. Yellowley, chief Of the prohibition agents de- scribed the Connecticut situation In a nutshell yesterday. Mir Hellowley has but recently returned from d trip 10 New York followed by a tour Of the south, ..
 Up to about twelve months ago, there was good liquor around the country" said MT. Iellowey, and Connecticut got it's share, but then we closed in on the bonded ware houses which were the sources Of supply. The courts helped out and today everything is tight as far as the warehouses are concerned,
 How do you explain the fact that there is liquor around 2" MT. Yellow ley was asked.
 Wet Belt Here.
 "Connecticut" he replied lis in the wet belt, and it is an active field for bootleggers. But what they sell is not real liquor even if it is marked so many years old and bottled in bond It's probably bot tied in 8 barn. II is nothing more or less than alcohol, doctored up and colored for the illicit trade.'
 He explained that people who criticise and say conditions are get ting worse do not know what they are talking about He thought the situation was improving in favor of enforcement throughout the whole country and Connecticut is no excep- tion.
 Jail Sentences.
 We are going to aim at nl1re jail sentences for bootleggers from now on," he said, and tighten up on so-called compromises"
 Run running from New York has been reduced.
 Do you think any liquor is going into Connecticut or other southern New England states from ships or Canada 2" was one question.
 This so called, Canadian Club that is being peddled is colored water and alcohol" replied Mir Yellowley," and the stuff that naturally is snug gled in every now and then from Ser muda and such places, no matter how well it is recommended, is as bad as anything else. n.
 We know what we are talking about when we say it." concluded the chief agent, and we have the test tubes right upstairs to show those who smack their lips and think they are getting aged in the wood stock. There is very, very little good liquor on the market in Connecticut today"

FISTIC COMPETITION
IS ON TAP TONIGHT

Kid Dalton, .Muncie bantamweight,
will afford plenty of fistic competition
for Eddie McManus, of Dayton, when
the rivals bounce from their corners
at the Eagles club, South Seventh
street, Tuesday night for bout OF
10 rounds at 118 pounds, according to
Charlie Goldzwig, Dalton's manager.
Attached to the McManus-Dalton en-
gagement is bout of eight rounds be-
tween Young Webb of Dayton and
Joe Everett of Springfield, Ohio. This
bout strengthens the original card
which called for Gil Eichoff and Kio
Schofield. Because of injuries receiv-
ed to his back in training, Schofield
had to cancel his engagement.
Young Webb is slashing fighter.
Ills main asset in the ring is his abil-
ity to outstay the other fellow Ever
EFT is said to, carry a good punch in
either hand and is a shifty boy. He
and Webb ought to mako a rafting
good show.
Andy Parker, Dayton amateur. is
slated to mix blows with local boy.
Bantie Hiatt may be used against Par
ker. No doubt Parker will be called
upon to show his best wares in this
six round argument. ....

Practice will be held by the Camera

day evening from the hours of $50
O'Clock until Z. Every member of the
squad is asked to be on hand for this

out before the game with New Madl-

New Madison is making great pre-
parations for the game here. The
New Madison team has one victory
over the locals and will use every eff
fort to repeat.
There is a possibility that H. Mon
ger will not get into the game and the
team is working under a new combi-
nation that is showing up very good.
At forward will be Crafts and o.
Monger, who are working very well to-
gether. Both possess good eyes for
the basket. The addition Of Crafts
has been a great help to the teams
offense
Sauter will play his usual position
at center and the sturdy Lehman will
be in his usual position at floorguard.
Retz probably will be used in the
backyard position in H. Monger's
place. Retz played a good game in
this position against the Eaton lads
and no doubt will play Wednesday
night. In case he does the team will
play a five-man offense game.
Thompson may also be given a
chance to show his wares in the back
guard position. Addleman and Hyde
will be ready to be sent into the
fracas at any time.
The first game will be played be-
tween the Richmond Division Pennsy
team and the Columbus Division
Pennsy team from Columbus, Ohio.
The local Pennsy team has a very
good lineup in the field and has been
| taking the number of all of the other
division teams in this section.
A large number of Pennsy rooters
will be on hand to give their team the
! glad hand and they are the kind OF
| rooters that always inspire a team on
to victory. The first game will be
fcalled at 1880 o'clock.
