believe that the Chassid worships
the Rebbi as if he we're his God.
This is not at all true. The Jew
ish people never idolize a hu-
man being. They respect, ad-
mire, honor, love, the man who
devotes his life to the study of
the Holy Writ, the man who de-
nies himself the pleasures of life,
and, ,devotes his time in modesiy
chastity, and piety. (Znies
ir'prishes).
The Rebbi, from his childhood
teachings, does not consider his
life his own. 1t is given over
to his people to defend them and
lead them in the path of the
righteous. In case of trouble or
disaster the Chassidim calls up
on him and derives comfort from
his words, being sure that his
prayers to God will be answered
sooner than theirs. Because of
the fact that Chassidism come to
the Rebbi from all over to con-
suit him and be comforted, the
Rebbi in his turn gets more ac-
quainted with all the details of
life and so he too benefits by
their questions and learns to un-
derstand the different types of
people and then is able to give
them logical advice.
A picture has been impressed
,pon my mind which can never
be erased. l shall never forget
the time when my father, who is
, Chassid, took me along with
him to his Rebbi to little town
called Gurr, near Warsaw. 1t
was the day before Roshahsona
and the town was filled with
thousands of Chassidim from all
parts of Poland who had come, to
seek advice from the Rebbi. The
Rebbi, an elderly man. with sill
very white locks reaching down
to his waistline, his face reflect
ing kindness and love, his eyes
smiling and the corners of his
eyes crinking good-naturedly,
impressed me so much that l re-
mained standing near the door

way and kept scrutinizing his
face. l could not imagine that
he was a real human being, he
seemed to me more like mes
senger from God. He stood there
near his little table and as the
Chassidim passed before him he
shook hands with each and
everyone gave everyone q friend-
ly smile and a kind word.
The time for the Rebbi to con-
verse with the Chassidim is linn
tied so instead of each one con-
versing personally with him each
Chassid writes his wishes on a
slip of paper and then hands it
to. the Rebbi, and the Rebbi by
just glancing at the words, un-
derstands and is able to give the
necessary information or advice.
Immediately.
When my turn came to pass
by and greet the wonderful man
l was trembling with a fearful
respect (hadras hakoved) and |
remained speechless before him.
He, understanding my predica-

that all their sins would be for

feeling which is reflected on
their faces, that they have the
proper defendent against Satan
who tried to find faults before

And then each Chassid departs
for his home, with that great
confidence in God, in the Rebbi
and in himself and is ready to
start the new year with clear
conscience full of hope and am

TRANSPORTATION is the
great factor in the building


Il of cities and countries.
Without means of transporta-
tion, without the building of our
great railway systems, the west
today would still be the stamping
ground of the buffalo and the
Indian. The Allegheny noun
tams would be a barrier to ad-
vancing civilization and settle
ments would be found only along
natural waterways. The rest of
the country would be hinderland
of little or no value.
Without our railroads, the
United States would have de-
veloped cnly in patches and it is
a grave question whether the ex-
panse of an entire continent could
have been held together under
one government at all. Railroads
are to a country what arteries
and veins are to an organic body.
Thru them pulses the CONNER
|cial, industrial, and social blood
of the nation. What value would
be our fertile fields and rich
mines if it were not for modern
TRANSPORTATION?
Not realizing the immensity of
the task and what has been ac-
complished in railroading, the
public attitude has always been,
to say the least, unappreciative.
Much unjust criticism has been
voiced against and great suspic-
'on has been cast upon our rail-
road builders. We have more
railroad mileage in the United
States of America, better equip
ment, more modern improve
ments and conveniences for the
traveller than any other country
on earth. And, as we are at
present encountering crisis that
will have great bearing upon
the future of Colorado we should
familiarizea ourselves s with the
Importance Of the transportation
question. Colorado instead of
building the Moffat tunnel, has
lost several small railroads in the
last few years. Instead of add
ing to our transportation facili-
ties, we have permitted the
scrapping of three railroad lines.
All of these might have been of
little Importance as they, par
alelled other lines but still they
were a great loss. They disclos-
ed wondrous scenic beauties
which should have attracted
enough tourists to make them
a financial success. Still, there
is some consolation left as these
abandoned railroads may now be
used as auto highways.
At present, we are faced with
a proposition to merge the Den
yer g. Rio Grande, Western-the
principal railroad of the state
with the Santa Fe system. This
attempted consolidation, should
it materialize, would make us
poor indeed. 1t would take from
us our only direct route to the
Pacific and it would halt develop

ment of that route. All the tour
ist travel would be diverted to
the south of us, robbing the trav-
eler of the opportunity to see the
unparalleled scenery along the
road which rightly calls itself
''The Scenic Railway of Ameri-
ca"
The merger is prompted by
mercenary reasons only and it
probably would pay better under
one management. But railroads,
like any other public enterprise,
have certain moral obligations
to communities they serve. These
considerations have bee m e
somewhat obscured and have
been neglected since the advent
of the interstate commerce COM
mission. They seem to have been
entirely lost since the govern
ment assumed with its dictator
ship the prerogative of all re-
sponsibility. It's just another
glaring instance that even the
mildest form of state socialism
is harmful.
The public was just as well
served during those early days of
construction when the railroads
were considered corrupt and
when they were free of all gov
ornamental interference and were
able to compete for passenger
and freight business in a legiti-
mate, commercial way. If they
then were interruptions in some
of their dealings they also were
more helpful to the general pub
lie. They were more human.
They had to use brains and init
iative in meeting open cempeti-
tion. And they got along fairly
well like any other American
business, without stipulated
guarantee of return on the in
vestment.
The railroads in pre-war days
not only stimulated travel with
attractively low fares but they.
actually interested themselves
in locating permanent settlers
upon western farms. The rail-
road builders then represented
the true pioneer spirit and while
their motives may have been
mercenary they rendered ines
tirnable service to the country.
Railroading, like any other
business, is entered for a purpose
and that purpose usually is the
making of money. AS railroad
building into mountainous
country costs a great deal of
money both in construction and
maintenance, as well as in opera
ton, and as the territory to be
served can only be sparsely pop
ulated, the risk is so great we
can't expect widespread build
ing of mountain roads even with
the greatest popular encourage
ment. The solution of our trans
portation problem lies in the tun-
neling of our mountains and in
he building of automobile roads
by the state to feed traffic to the
railroad lines.
The Denver Jewish news., 1923-05-02

But no sooner is one of these
projects suggested. than some
part of the state plays the part
of dog in the manger and at
tempts to block the will of the
majority of the people. If we
wish to develop the resources of
our state, every part thereof
must be made accessible with
cheap and adequate transporta-
ton facilities or the world will
pass us by.
We must begin to learn that
we are hemmed in on all sides by
barriers of \ mountain ranges
which cut our state into several
parts, each of which represents
an empire of almost inexhaust-
.ible wealth. We must realize that
it is to the interest of Denver to
converge all these resources in
% one main channel which shall
lead to a central point to gain
the best results for the entire
state.
Any sectional jealousy in any
part of the state against a pro-
ject of this sort can only retard
the development of the entire
state If Denver becomes city
of 100000, our farmers and
fruitgrowers will not be compell-
ed to look to eastern markets
where long hauls will deprive
them of any profits they might
make, no matter how good the
market. The same principle ap-
plies to our manufacturing in
dustries, no matter where they
are located in Colorado.
When our state has learned to
look to its capital for its leader
ship and when Denver has learn
ed to assume that leadership
with the proper spirit, we will
begin to forge ahead in popula-
tion and permanent prosperity.
The time is not far distant
when we will become independent
of expensive and prohibitive
railroad building, when we will
use a system which will laugh
at legislation and interstate COM
merce commissions and make
light of the road building. The
airplane-an American inven-
tion-will show the way.
1t has been developed in Euro
pean countries to a far higher
degree than in the land of its
origin. 1t is already being used
successfully for practical COM
mercial purposes. Soon, the At
lantic ocean will be crossed with
passenger and freight carrying
planes and soon we will be able
to travel from Leadville to Den
er in one hour.
The most distant parts of, the
state, from one end to another,
should be able to travel to Den
yer within few hours at the
most. Each city will then con-
troll it's own transportation sys-
tenn and will be able to dictate its
own passenger and freight rates.
The time is ripe for our CONNER
cial and other organizations to
familiarize themselves with this
thought and to prepare the way
for its realization.
