BIBLICAL NOTE: Those Nazis

from Jews seeking to cross into
Soviet territory were not exactly

NachaSh the AmmOnite, who de-
manded that the Yabeshites put
out their right eyes in exchange
for their freedom. But Saul
came to the rescue and Nachash
and his cohorts were routed be-
fore the price could be paid. i.
Nachash, incidentally, is Hebrew
for snake.

BENNY THE BUM AIDED
 pHILADELpHIA GETTING
 REPUBLICAN, CONVENTION
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, Feb. 29.-Please excuse if we point out that in bid ding for the Republican national convention, Philadelphia offered not only $150,0OO and the Liberty Bell, but also Benny the Bum.
 Benny the Bum is a versatile man who once fought valiantly but not too well in the prize ring. Now he runs Philadelphia prin- cipal night club. Democrats from the not oo-straight-laced parts e. the country assembled nightly and convivially at Benny the Bum's during the 1886 convention.
 Benny's food and entertainment relieved the tension. AS any one will remember, there were whole days of extreme tension at Phila- ielphia when delegates stood ir- resolutely about wondering whether President Roosevelt ever would get the nomination. Benny profited handsomely while the Democrats made up their minds about nom- mating the President, and he is in an admirable spot to profit once again if the Republicans should be in doubt as to whom to name in 1940.

Construction of a 7,500 addition to the E:,ls Building here is expect ed to start this spring as the result of lodge action last night in author- izing the Board of Trustees to pro- ceed with the proposed plan. The new concrete annex to the building would be a unit in the con- struction of a new building and would be used to expand the facili- ties of the present club until such time as a complete new building can be erected.
 To Build in Hillside
 Blue-prints of the annex, as pre- sented by the Trustees and the Building Committee, show the unit will measure 75 by 90 feet and will lie at the rear of the present sec- ond floor on which is located the main Elks' Hall. It is proposed that the present third story will be re- moved.
 Tine unit will contain four new bowling alleys, recreation room, locker room, shower room and rest rooms.
 Moving of the bowling alleys will permit the present card room on the ground floor to be tripled in size and will provide an additional lounge measuring l9 by 32 feet.
