Greenbelt cooperator., 1939-12-14


Yes, Greenbelt has cemetery, peaceful spot on
a hillside, set about with trees. If you take the
right before reaching the di sposal plant
road, you will discover it, plot of about 300 by
90 feet, surrounded by white picket fence and laid
out vi tn gravel paths.
The cemetery once the private graveyard of
family called Turner, Witnessed by a tall old
fashioned stone bearing the of Thomas F. Turn
er, who died in 1855 at the age of IS. His is the
only marker with a formal inscriptions; the rest of
the family lie under rough stones which only inj
tials have been carved. Because of the distinct
mounds, many of the graves recent, but it was
pointed out by Harvey Vincent, TOM engineer, that
the c1ayey nature Of the soil combined Wdth the
large amount of gravel responsible for this ap
pearance One Of the mysteries of the graveyard was
a grave shallow that the shape of the coffin
visible. This renedied by deepening the shaft.
A cedar tree visible slope above the graveyard
stood in the front yard of the old Turner
ALI of the family had moved away at the time
when the Government acquired the property. Mr.. Vim
cent est mates that there three four old fam
lily burial places on Greenbelt property.
The Turner graves lie at end of the cemetery
surrounded by the ginal trees and bushes; the
mainder of the plot has been freshly sodded and di
vded into six whole and two half sections by gravel
paths. The town plans to acquire the from Farm
Security and sell plots to CT itizens need may a.
rise. The graveyard would be managed under a per-
petua1 plan, and in all probability a uniform
system of marking, perhaps by bronze plaques flush
with the ground, would be adopted, to avoid Iense-
less conpetiti ion and ostentation.
There is only Greenbe1t grave in the ceme-
terry, that of John Woods, who custodian Of the

In publishing the current Greenbelt directory the
Mothers Club has rendered a notable service. The

these too, too many months, and it fills it mighty
well-to the credit of the club and the town. In
form it is prac cal and attractive; in content it
complete and accurate. The painstadng labor
and thought put into 1T needs must win admira-
tion and appreciation. hope it also earns gener-
financial assistance for the c1uh's work.
m particularly grateful to the club for bring
ing to attention the Abraham. Lincoln quotation
that is featured by the directory. I think it is
particularly fitting to Greenbelt and should be kept

LIBRARIAN ADVISES AGAINST READING TRASHY FICTION

"Too many people begin their reading careers wi tn
Fait Baldwin's stories and then, unfortunately, they
continue to read moth in but Fai tn Ba1dwn's books",
said Mr.. Ziegaus, Order Librarian at the University
of Maryland in address before the Greenbelt book
lub Wednesday evenings. r. Ziegaus discussed the
reading Fl ction, but stressed the cessi-
ty for being discriminating in our choice of fic-
tion. suggested that read stories whose char
acters broaden vision, stories whose plots ac-
quaint us with existing condi tions with Whit We
should be familiar.
The speaker warned against consistently reading
nescapistn literature, such as detective stories or
novels With depth and no val lue other than the
story itself. Such books, he said, do nothing to
ward keeping minds plastic. Such books do not
give us any new informati and afford nothing
but an escape from own Lives and problems.
Mr. Ziegaus then gave list of the fiction which
he sidered worth reading, explaining that the
list WAS imply his choice.

The approaching High Holidays
bring to close another year of
harr owing experiences for our peo-
pie. Not unlike many previous
chapters in the glorious yet sad
history of Israel, the Jew contin-
ues to be the victim of malevolent
forces that threaten the whole
structure of our civilization. That
history is sad because these de-
plorable activities in every age
have done and continue to do vio-
lence to the principles of justice,
equality, tolerance and good will;
that history is glorious because
our people have borne with dignity
whatever has been their fate and
have survived, as they shall again,
to build for an even more resplen-
dent future.
When we consider the over
whelming relief and resettlement
problem, produced by the unprece-
denied program of hate and force,
and by bigotry and intolerance,
which prevail in those countries of
Europe that have reverted to me-
dieval darkness; when we consider
the wave of racketeer-s stimulated
or official totalitarian-sponsored
and supported anti Semitism;
when we contemplate the lack Of
justice in the diplomatic relations
of nations involved in the present
scene Of conflict and confusion,
and the effect thereof upon the
hopes and aspirations of our peo-
pie, such as the unfortunate de-
velopments regarding Palestine;
when we observe the consequences
of world economic unrest, and the
devastating effect upon the status
and the morale of the Jew, which
all of these conditions have pro-
duced; the scene is not comfort
ing, nor is it conducive to compla-
cency or sense of security.
Nevertheless, to the credit of
the people of Israel let it be said,
that they are once again, in this
crisis, demonstrating that same

KHAD-GADIA

In this Observation-Disclosures"
affair, we come upon the old
Khad-Gadia sequence. 1t was not
such nursery fairy story, after
all. The international political
game in recent years, which any
hour now may turn Europe into
a shambles, reminds us once more
of the coming of the Angel of
Death who slew the eiaughterer
that killed the OK struck the
dob which bit the cat that ate the
kid, etc. 1t would be interesting
from psychological angle, to as
certain the feelings of the Czechs,
who when hard pressed by Hitler,
were served warning by the Poles
and the Hungarians to cede large
tracts of territory, otherwise they
would be attacked. How different
the picture might have been had
the Poles come to the aid of a sis
ter republic which had risen out
VI I1AO Oo1I1O III dIlO
was of the same general stock?
Certainly the world would have
sympathized more genuinely with
the Poles in their hour of distress,
had Poland not taken advantage
of Czechoslovakia's plight a year
ago. Until statesmen and gov
ernments operate with the instru-
ments of individual morality and
are guided by the principles of
justice, there can never be any
hope of universal peace. The
great surprise to me is that at
least the lesser states do not learn
their lesson and still indulge in
the "dog-eat-dog" policy.

Outstanding
Achievements
OF $500

Hailed as perhaps the most
noteworthy action of the Amerl-
can Jewish community in the year
1909 is the erection Of the Pales-
tine Pavilion at the New YORK
Worlds Fair. In the record we
scan today of events and acnleVe-
ments in the past twelvemontn
this exhibit stands out as unique,
highly successful endeavor to pre-
sent to the general American pup
lie an accurate picture of the Jew
ish work and aims in the Holy
Land.
Opened at the time when the
British White Paper of last May
placed the future of the Jewish
Homeland in jeopardy, the Pavli-
ion has served to bring here to
America the justice of the Jewish
cause in Palestine. Graphically
portraying the labors of Jewish
pioneers in an era when the ref
ugee problem is uppermost in the
minds of all, this exhibit has pro-
vided the evidence needed to con-
vince the world of the colonizing
ability of the Jews. Bearing wit
ness to the true nature of the Jew
as a productive factor, the Pales-
tine Pavilion elequently refutes
the anti-Semitic charge of para
sitism which sinister forces are
leveling against our people even
in free America today.
The wholehearted support which
this Pavilion has received from all
sections of American Jewry proves
that differences in affiliation are
no deterrent to united effort in
behalf of great instrument of
enlightenment. How deep this I'M
ion is was shown on the occasion
of the dedication of the Pavilion,
which brought out the largest as
sembly of Jews in the history of
this country and set an as yet
unbroken record for full-rate paid
admissions to the Fair. In this
connection much credit is due to
Meyer w. Weisgal, director of the
Pavilion, whose long career of SER
vice to the Jewish causes has Gull
minated in the creation of this
unprecedented portrayal of what
Jews have done in Palestine in the
past quarter century.

ties, so essential to our normal
growth and progress.
May the New Year bring a
blessing of peace and freedom
from oppression to the people of
Israel. May the ideals of the dem
ocratic nations be protected a.
gainst the onslaught of the forces
of evil and injustice.
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1939-09-15

undaunted courage which charac-
terized the lives of the martyrs of
Israel of old Once again must
we demonstrate that unflinching
determination to play our part in
this world drama: to champion the
cause of justice against injustice,
to support and protect the cause
of righteousness against the forces
of evil. Thus shall we, with the
aid of all who cherish the ideals
of the people of democratic ma
tons, overcome the enemies Of
mankind.
When we review the activities
of the closing year, we see dem
onstrations of unprecedented gen.
crosby on the part of the more
fortunate of our co-religionists;
the outporing of funds for the aid
and assistance of those who are
less fortunate; we see Renais-
sance of spiritual and cultural val
ues, a re-vitalized interest in Jew
ish problems; we see a record of
self-sacrificing service unprece-
denied in our generation. We see
a glorious record of renewed de-
votion and conservation to the
principles and the ideals and the
institutions of democracy, loyal
ty manifest on every hand on the
part of every Jew worthy of the
name and his heritage. Such a
record of achievement may well
give us comfort and reinsurance,
that the Jewish people are meas
uring up to the challenge which
is theirs in these critical times.
On the eve of Rosh Hashonah
let us express the hope and prayer
that the coming year may bring
about a better understanding of
our problems; and closer coopera-
ton and greater unity of action
on the part of our people. Our
activities, effective as they have
been, will be vastly more effective
through the development of mutu-
al respect and the exercise of a
greater measure of tolerance as
between Jewish organizations.
B'nai Birth has advocated unity
in Israel for many years. 1t will
continue to devote it's influence
and it's resources to the achieve
ment of this objective. With it's
tradition of almost century of
unremitting service to the cause
of our people; with it's fundamen-
tai philosophy, exemplified in the
declaration of it's purpose, ito

of their highest aims and those of
humanity" the B'nai Birth is in
the peculiarly unique position to
Influence such unity. The Jewish
problem is many faced. Not
only must we maintain with even
greater intensity a defense pro-
gram; and minister to the physi-
cal needs of those who require our
help, but we must perform the
important task of preserving, yes,
if need be, rebuilding, those posi-
tive values, those spiritual quail
