Heroism in defeat is the theme
of the stirring novel COLD
POGROM by Max L. Berges,
translated from the German by
Benjamin r. Epstein, just pub.
lished by The Jewish Publication
Society of America. COLD PO-
GROIN is the story of a middle
class, comfortable, well-intention-
ed, Woodworking Jewish family
whose antecedents in Germany
go back for three hundred years.
Only one of the family recog-
nizes the danger inherent in the
methods and aims of the National
Socialist Party. The others re-
fuse to take his warnings serious
ly until it is too late. The daugh-
ter of the family, pretty and
intent upon amusing herself, is
pursued and annoyed by the at
tention of a prominent Nazi.
Like the rest of her family, she
sees only the personal inconve-
niences but not the larger impli-
cations of all that goes on about
her. Events soon prove to all Of
them how wrong they had been to
disregard politics and to think
that all will end well if only they
hurt no one and attend to their
own affairs. Relentlessly the
Nazis destroy them, not through
direct murder. but through what
the author aptly calls, Gold
Pogrom."
Yet before that happens the
author succeeds in driving his
point home. Much has been writ
ten and said during the past few
years about the great tragedy
that has befallen the German
people and the German Jews.

|EDDY'S BAKERY
STAGES NOVEL
DISPLAY stunt

The Eddy Bakery, 215 Colorado
street, presented a very novel form
of advertising last Saturday, May 20,
when 20 unemployed union men,
members of the Butte Workers Ali
ance, were hired by John Muzevic
to carry banners for two hours
through the city streets. The word
ing on the banners read, Il am work
ing for Eddy's Bakery, Eat Eddy's
Pan Dandy, It is fresh, 1t is whole
some" The plan originated with
Mr.. Muzevic and proved successful.
Many favorable comments were
heard on the street. OF particular
interest to the unions was the action
of Mr.. Muzevic going to the Butte
Workers Alliance office and request
ing members of that organization
who are unemployed to do the work.
Another phase Of this little drama
included a large pan of fresh dough-
NUTS which were served to the
marchers at the end Of their labor
and which was in addition to the
wages given them. An additional
sack of doughnuts and two large
loaves of Eddy's bread were also
included as a gift.

virtues and annexed to each a short
precept which fully expressed the

l. Temperance: Eat not to d~ullness;
drink not to elevation. 2. Silence:
Speak not but what may benefit
others or yourself; avoid trifling
conversation. 3. Order: Let all your
things have their places; let each
part of your business have its time.
4. Resolution: Resolve to perform
what you ought; perform without
fail what you resolve. 5. Frugality:
Make no expense but to do good to
others or yourself; j.. e., waste
nothing. 6. Industry: Lose no time;
be always employed in something
useful; cut off all unnecessary ac-
tons. 7. Sincerity: Use no hurtful

Wine Prices Drop

The result of the reduction in
prices on wines was given concrete
expression recently when the price
list of the State Liquor Board made
its appearance. The last legislature
revised the tax on wines downward.
The State Liquor Board handles a
lot Of very fine wines and the new
price schedules should be sent to
people who appreciate good wines
for them to buy more of it.
While many American people have
not cultivated a wine taste, the
French, Italians and other n%ationali-
ties have found this beverage a
source of pleasure and health. The
value of wine as a tonic has never
been successfully challenged or con-
tradicted and furthermore it las the
tacit approval of the Bible. The
more human beings learn to be tenn
perate with alcohol-and the dis
tilleries, breweries and the wineries
are all urging this-it will be found
to have a quality that is really slim
ulating and conducive to health.
Wine has been used since time i'm
memorial and there is something in
conjunction with a moderate use Of
wine and the chemical processes of
the body which results definitely in
increased vitality and health.
