ILLINOIS RESIDENT SAYS
PROPOSED HIGHWAY TO
HELP KEY WEST MUCH

Marshall Forrest, of Winaltka,
ILL.,, partner in the Ames limerick
Banking House of Chicago. is OF
the opinion that the proposed
highway to Key West will mean
great prosperity.
Mr.. and Mrs. Forrest spent
their winter vacation at Vero
Beach. They were told by S. H.
Nudge, retired vice-president OF
the Postal Telegraph and Gable
company, who with Mrs. Nudge
this season occupied the Elgin
home on Eaton street, what 3
great place Key West is
At the invitation of the
Mudge'S Mr.. and Mrs. Forrest az
rived Wednesday, and since ar
irving have decided that the
charm and allure of Key West
was not overrated by their friend.
and have already decided to spend
next winter here. Before leaving
Saturday they will probably make
arrangements to do so.
Discussing the highway, Mr.
Forrest said it was his opinion
that bridges would mean a great
deal to the city in many ways and
that when work was started and
the completion of the bridges as
sured, many persons would come
here who today do not look favor
ably on the trip over the 40 mile:
water gap. by ferry.

JEWISH HOLIDAY
TO BE OBSERVED
HERE NEXT WEEK
REGULAR SERVICES IN CON-
NECTION WITH PASSOVER
FESTIVAL WILL BE CON-
QUOTED AT SYNAGOGUE

The ideal of religious freedom
will BE strengthened in the hearts
of all Jews on Monday evening,
April 6, when they begin their
annual observance of Passover,
first festival of emancipation in
the history of civilization. Com
memorating the Exodus of the Is
raelites from the bondage of
Egypt, Passover will be observed
for a week among Reform Jews
and for eight days among Ortho-
dox Jews.
Regular services will be con-
Quoted at the local synagogue by
Rev. Phillip Kristal.
Passover begins with the ira
ditional Seder service which in
Reform homes is held on the first
night and in Orthodox homes on
the first and second nights. The
father conducts the service and
reads the story of Israers success
full struggle to escape the tyranny
of Egypt from a special prayer
book called the 'EHaggadah." The
company joins in the responsive
readings and in singing the folk
songs which accompany the serv-
ice.
The Seder service is rich with
ancient customs. Four cups OF
wine are symbolic of Gods four
promises of redemption made to
Israel as recorded in Exodus VI:
to bring the people out of bond
age, to deliver them from servi-
tude, to redeem them from all
dependence in Egypt, and to Sc
lect them as ''the people of the
Lord" A fifth cup of wine, call
ed the Cup of Elijah, remains in
the center of the table as a SYM
Dol of the final redemption which
tradition says will be announced
by the prophet and teacher, Eli
jah. The front door of the home
is opened during the service that
this long awaited guest may find
a warm welcome.
Unleavened bread and other
symbols of the holiday are placed
on the table; parsley, as token
of gratitude to God for the pro-
duce of the earth; horseradish
signifying the embittered life OF
the Israelites in Egypt; chopped
fruit, denoting the clay will
which the Israelites worked il
| Egypt; a lamb bone, emblem OF
the Paschal lamb; and a roasted
egg, symbolic of the burnt-offer
ing brought in tina days of the
Temple in Jerusalem. Happiness
| and joy are apparent Throughout
the service.
Passover was first observed al
an agricultural festival celebrating
the freeing of the earth in the
spring harvest. With the passing
years it has come to have a spirit
ual meaning. that of human free
dom as taught in the story of the
Israelites' freedom from slavery
As told in the first fifteel
chapters of the Book of Exodus
the Israelites were enslaved il
Egypt under the power of thu
Pharaohs. God heard their erie
of distress and commissioned
Moses to make them free. Will
rare foresight and indomitabl
courage he led them out of TIT
land of oppression, through tn
desert, and to the threshold o
the Promised Land.
| The Passover reminds the Jew
of their deliverance and surviva
through expressions and it in
spires them to be of good cour
age, to keep alive the flame o
IsraePs hope and idealism.

Feud OF Blbo- Harrison
Flares In Judgeship Row
Promises To Provide One
OF Most Colorful Shows
OF All During Election
This Year
By HERBERT PLUMMER
Uty AsS0ciafed PreSaB

UBy Associated Press5
WASHINGTON, April 3.-The
senate hardly had voted to con-
firm the appointment of Judge
Edwin Holmes of Mississippi to
the circuit court of appeals, over
the protest of Senator BiIbo, be-
fore an announcement was made
in that state of real political in
terest and perhaps significance.
Ii was that former Governor
Sennett Connor would be a can
didate for the United States SEN
ate against Pat Harrison this
year.
The feud between Mississippi
two senators, smoldering for a
long time, definitely was brought
into the open by that announce
ment. 1t promises to provide one
of the most colorful shows of all
this election year.
Both are veteran campaigners.
Harrison, who has served three
terms in the senate and before
that a spell in the house, is one of
the main cogs in the administra-
TONS machine. Bilbo. serving
his first term in the senate, is one
of the most colorful political per-
sonalities on the national scene.
Starts Political Show -.
The elevation of Judge Holmes
on the federal bench afforded po-
litieal bystanders in Washington
opportunity to witness a rare dis
play of skill between two master
strategists of politics. Whether
Holmes would be promoted was a
minor point.
The real issue was whether
Bilbo would Outsmart Harrison.
The Holmes appointment was
sponsored and backed by Harri.
son to the limit. Bilbo, once
jailed by Holmes on a contempt
charge, was determined that in Sc
far as he was concerned the sen.
ate would not confirm the ap
pointment.
He realized early that nothing
he could do would keep Holme.
from being given senate approval
He turned the whole affair, there
fore, into a grand political show
at Harrison's expense.
He broke his (self-imposed 81
lence, dating from the day he en-
tered the senate, to speak against
confirmation of Holmes. Before
that he had tirelessly prosecuted
his case before a subcommittee o.
the senate's judiciary committee.
He made no secret of his in
tentions. He was out to get Har
rison's political scalp, told him 81
openly.
Bilbo Collects Ammunition
Only four senators, including
Bilbo himself, voted against Hol
mes confirmation. He was salts
fled, however. He had gathered
q lot of political ammunition h
could use later in a forum h,
knows best-the stumpS in Mis-
s.ssippi.
Few here believe that Harri
sons reelection for a fourth tern
in the senate is in serious danger
This much, however, appear
certain. Harrison will be force,
to make a campaign, the like o
which he hasn't had to make TO
years. Bilbo, always a powerful
political factor in Mississippi. vii
compel him to take the STUMP
from the delta to the gulf.
That's important, because tn
Democrats will have need of ;
man like Harrison in the nationa
campaign.

Against
OVER 100 RAILROADS
SOUGHT INJUNCTION
Others Also Joined in Suit
To Prevent Measure Be-
coming Effective July !;
Seven Percent Levy Laid

der the Measure

Washington, June 26 (AP)-
Justice Jennings Bailey, of the
District of Columbia Supreme
Court, today declared the gov
ernment's 1885 railroad retire
ment plan was unconstitutional.
He ruled that both the rail pension
law and its companion tax measure
were "inseparable parts" of a single
scheme unconstitutional under prior
rulings of the Supreme Court.
The ruling was made in a suit filed
by Glass l railroads and other rail-
road enterprises to prevent the legis-
lation from becoming effective July 1.
This injunction suit was brought
by 131 first class carriers and 289 les
ser enterprises. They attacked both
the retirement act and it's companion
revenue measure, which sought to lay
a 3 IL percent tax on rail wages and
an equal levy on company payrOlls.
Both of these statutes were enacted
last year after the Supreme Court IN
validated the 1894 retirement law,
which included both tax and pension
provisions.
The 1885 retirement act was design
ed to set up a permanent pension sys-
tenn for railway workers over 81 years
old First annuity payments under it
were scheduled to be made July 1.
