This light Of the promised Mes
siah has burned brightly during the
darkest periods Of Jewish history.
In the present bitter experiences Of
the Jews, religious papers report
many are finding that Christ is the
true Messiah and that acceptance
Of Him is the one clearest solution
Of the ghastly problem that today
confronts the Chosen People.
Isaiah portrayed the Coming One
as being born a babe. DR.. J. H.
Jowett once commented: "Who
would have had sufhcient daring Of
imagination to conceive that God
Almighty would have appeared
among men as a little Child! We
should have conceived something
sensational. phenomenal, catastro-
phic, appalling! The most awful of
the natural elements would have
formed His retinue and men would
be chilled and frozen with fear. But
He came as little Child
Modern hospital-born babies are
labeled at birth to prevent mixups
But every child, however humbly
born, is labeled Possibility" In
stinctively, mankind attaches q
sanctity to infancy. Women and
children first" Is the law In every
emergency. Civilizations greatest
horror over the bombings in Spain
and China and Ethiopia and in the
present war is the destruction OF
innocent childhood. In every baby
sentiment sees the infant Jesus
Who came as a Child and underwent
all the normal experiences of our
common life, that He might be q
sympathetic sharer of mans lot
I'VE have not a great high priest
who cannot be touched with the
feeling of our infirmities."
Qualities Of . Deliverer.
In the memories of many Of us
there still ring the majestic strain
Of the oratorios recitation of the
titles of the Messiah, as given Him
by Isaiah:
wonderful
Counselor!
Mighty God!
Everlasting Fatherl
Prince of Peace!"
How we need Him today as Coun-
selor! And as the Prince of Peace
His way is the only way out. We
have witnessed-and for the next
three months shall see again, as We
study the life of Christine increase
Of His government over the earth
and throughout the centuries. He /.
today the worlds hope, the only sure
ground of optimism.

Cooperative Christmas

Hety-five years ago, this Christmas time, the
cooperative society Of Rochda1e England opened its
store and inaugurated different kind of business.
It appropriate that this historic event should
have been at the C stmas season, which celebrates
good Will among men. These years have seen accom-
p11sfments that much to the world.
Hnety-five years ago a age began. Twenty-
eight poor weayers, setting out upon their journey
in the economic world, were the wise Of their
day. Guided by the star of brotherhood, they Jared
their way, they dissuaded by the high
priests OF oxford who cried out to them. "You
1ost turn back whence you came the road Is impos-
sib1eI" On they went. And presently they kew that

goal they sought.
was young in the days of the wise men of Rochdale.
It has run its course and done its work. It's slws
its poverty, its crime, its hunger, and its
the symptoms of its dying.
But the age vi tn the new economy represents
business based the mutual aid of bro therhood It
carries humanity into the market place and makes
way of Life in the supplying of human needs. This
different kind of business has in ninetyfive years
penetrated into every country and into every corner
OF the world. Quietly the people have turned to it,
until it embraces onefifth of the earth's popu-
1aion. It carries the banner of peace. It's gon-
Talon is the rainbow. And in these dark days, dark
ened by the winter so1stice, symbolic of the darkness
of expiring age, the light Of cooperat on gives
courage and hope. way of peace, way of abumd-
ance, way Of brotherhood developing in the
world. Men can live in harmony. Want and cann

Mr.. Dies Again

We hate to give any free publicity to Mr..
Mes, but his attack the movement IN
last weeks paper strikes home for Greenbelt
To date he has labelled communist labor unions,
the New Deal teachers, movie actors, student organ
izations, and host of minor politi cal groups and
organizations for the furtherance of peace and de-
mocracy. In his broadcast shots at individuals and
organizations which he personally dd slikes
has actually identified several communists, but
these already wel1l1nom. The expensive inves-
tigation only gave them free publicity.
Nearly, but not quite all of US, have been in
cluded in the comm ttee' 8 scope. AS the finishing
touch, and to prove that America Is really red to
the core, the paint brush daubed at the
er education movement. Something should be done
about it. The Committee Un- American Activities

Our Investment in Health

We are pleased to Mr.. Stainbachis letter.
which appeared in Last weeks Cooperator, since it
indicates sincere interest in the Greenbelt Hospi
ta1-the outstanding enterprise in the cowni ty
wholly financed by Greenbelt citizens themselves.
critical analysis of the expendi lures made for
the hospital to date indicates that approximately
600 of the total budget of 200 (see schedule
~ annual statement of budget condition) spent
for such items renovating housing unit into
pdta1, purchases of operating equipment,
fusion apparatus, sterizers, obstetric Instruments
of all types, anesthesta machine, x-ray and labor
atory equiment, h tchen facilities, etc. These
obviously non-recurring items and replacements Mn
not have to be made for several years.
In the early months of the hospi tails life the
income at rather low level because of the lack
of support the part of the community. Happily
this oondttion longer obtains because the hospi
tai has incontestably proven itself vital factor
In the preservation of the health and the saving
the lives of the citizens of town and county,
and now H Joys widest community support. In this
regard 1t should be noted that the income Of the
hospital we'll 70 per cent of the opera ting
costs in the Last few tbs be expected to
rise higher in the future.
The Greenbe1t Hospital is no exception to the
rule that municipal hospitals not money-making
tnsH tutions any than schools or police and
recreation departments. For example, in New York
City in 1898 city hospitals cost 81, IS and
the income was 1914, ,247.o6. It Is to meet money
deficits of this kind that endoments and beouests
from private foundations and annual community chest
and hospital drives are necessary in every city
throughout the Unit ed States.
hospitals pay thedr dividends in health. So Long
as our hospital does this it will repay the small
deficits it may incur.
Greenbelt cooperator., 1939-12-21

Why does the Greenbe1t Credit Union require that
you add a dollar month to your share account
while paying off your loan?
Several people have been surprised lately to
learn that they had to save money at the same
time they paid off their leans. Every loan ap-
proved by the credit committee bears the nota-
tion "approved subject to the following condi-
tions. payment Of dollar per month on
shares". Saving money is indeed requirement,
but it should not be allowed to obscure the fact
that it is also an Obligation. Members can get
loans only because other members, borrowers
not, are depositing savings. Therefore bor-
rowing member should feel obligated to add
dollar month to his savings account that
others also enjoy the privilege Of getting
loan. In months past of people have been
refused loans simply because money has not been
available. other reasons for the requirement
that building up the share account provides COL
lateral for the loan and--this is most Import
anti achieves a credit union's chief object:
to help people get back on their feet financial
".
How many physicians on the staff of the
Greenbelt Health Association? Are these physi-
clans quail flied as specialists?
Three pfysicians-r. Samuel Berenberg, Dr..
Joe VI. Still, and Dr.. Joseph Silagy-are the
medical staff of the Health AsD citation. Each
one is a specialist in different field; these
specialties include pedi atrics, obstetrics, and
irter nedi cine. AS the membership grows,
other specialists will be added to the staff so
that the most common special fields of medicine
may be covered.
100000
Is there any reason why should the pa
tronage slips get from our stores before the
Cooperative is organized?
Yes; the Members of the Cooperative may decide
to distribute the first patronage rebate on the
basis Of business done period covered by
these slips.
It should be noted that the amount of the
money to be distributed is not determined by
these slips. The slips merely determine the
percentage of the business each of us is respon-
sible for; and that is the per cent Of the total
savings being divided due each of us.
