A Beautiful Wife
BY MORRIS KRAMER

is beautiful; the years of his life
shall be doubled Sanhedrin.
In this sense the excerpt does
not m a n to indicate physical
beauty, but the more intrinsic
beauty Of charm and grace. For a
man who possesses such a wife is
fortunate, indeed. And if she is
a good mother, as all mothers usu-
ally are, she is a treasure that
cannot be estimated.
For as a wife and mother she
is a great comfort to the husband.
She can console him when he needs
consolation as no one else can.
She is his helpmeet annd does all
those numerous things for his well
fare which only a wife can do.
The years of his life are doubled,
indeed, when he has his wife with
him, for the joy and happiness he
derives through the love and in
spiration Of his wife is the greatest
he can experience. For who knows
a man better than his wife; who
understands and appreciates him
better than his wife and who can
assuage his griefs or heighten his
joys better than his wife.
AS a mother-who can fill the
relationship towards the children
more ideally than a mother
whose work and labor, whose
interest in the welfare of her chill
dren cannot be tabulated.
For a mother knows that she is
always shepherd to her flock, in
good and in bad times, in times
when the children are in trouble
even in those instances when an
unsympathetic world may have oc-
casion to condemn them the mo-
Their still loves annd cherishes her
children.
For the wife has a beauty that
is different from what the average
person understands it to be. The
expressive beauty of charm and
the sublime beauty of soul, the
greatest and most enduring type
of beauty is the special adornment
of wife and mother. For the wife
and mother retains this beauty as
time goes on. This beauty is like
a magnificent painting which in
creases in lustre and value with
the advance of years so that in the
later stages of life it is still more
lovely and valuable.
1.-THE years of his life shall be
doubled" For years of life do not
count in mere years alone. Years
of life are worthwhile only as
they are peaceful and happy spans,
as they are helpful and fruitful,
and the wife and m t her who
spends these years with the hus-
band, who watches over and guides
him, who counsels and cooperates
with him, and who, at the. same
time, is a loving and dutiful mo-
Their to her children, truly helps
to make him live twice his normal
years.
Children may grow up, marry
and move away and become con-
cerned with their own affairs, but
the wife remains with the husband
just as she first began to live with
him, to make his days beautiful
and glorious with the advancing

This Weeks Sedrah
By RABBI DAVID B. ALPERT

AOZAAOA LA AZ AOs I'LL A2ASA
"FOrgive, o God, thy people Is
rael whom Thou has redeemed. :"
deuteronomy 1921; p ShOftim)
Democracy means the brother
hood of man. Liberty requires that
we treat all men equally alike.
Freedom and democracy combine
upon the foundations of justice.
Once again, the wheel of history
makes imperative that we know
and apply these basic lessons,
drawn largely from this section
and it's influence. Though we know
these concepts today as legal prin-
ciples, they are at bottom express
ions of the high religious spirit.
If there is to be justice, we must
not have any playing of favOrites.
At times, we must willingly cease
to think of ourselves as Especial
cases" intent upon justice for our
selves alone. We must seek full
hearted justice, in which all alike
receive equal and fair cOnsidera-
ton. Though we are not to con-
slider the person of the mighty, we
must in all fairness give additional
protection to the underprivileged,
to the orphan and widow and 9th
ers who do. not have important
members of their family to appeal
on their behalf. Justice must be
even-handed, without any thought
of capitaIizing upon it for profit
Justice, and justice alone, should
we seek in society or as individ-
uaIs.
The Bible is specific in refusing
to permit unjust methods even for
the sake of securing justice. JUS
tice must be strong enough to
stand on it's own. Only then can
Justice prove the solid bedrock for
democracy and liberty. 1t requires
a shift in our thinking: that we
shall not judge people by the
groups from which they come, nor
form generalized and usually false
impressions of the entire group
Instead, justice is absolute In eX-
pecting of us to judge each person
as an individual, by his best, by
the unawakened good in him to
which he can be aroused ana OF
which he is capable.
Thus, in the full determination
of a case, where life is involved
guilt shall be established only up
on the impartial testimony OF two
competent witnesses whose tesu-
mOny must dOvetaiI in all details
A person shall be immune from
testifying against himself. Even
the kings and the highly-placed
are not above the law; but in all
Justice must observe the law no
less than others.
No less up-to-date are the pro-
visions for exemption from mill
tarv service. The newlywed' ne
who has built a new house tnaC
he has not occupied, the farmer
whose crop is standing and not yet
harvested, he who admits powerful
fear. were exempt by the BlDle
from military service. Perhaps the
last group might be extended 10
include that classification, I'M
known to the Bible, of "conscienti-
GUS directors"
Even under the tense emOClonS
of war, the people were to AVOID
the evils against which they
fought. They were not to imitaUe
the evils of the belligerent nauons'
but were to sue for peace. war
was to be the last resort, after an
other avenues had been tried ana
tried again.

Chicago Grain
BY the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, Oct. 30-Pit brokers
said today the wheat market showed
signs of lapsing into prediction
sluggiShness. as prices fluctuated
nervously above and below yester-
days close.
Some of the quiet selling which
weakened the market at times was
attributed to liquidation of accounts
in preparation for the election, while
milling interests reported -four buy
ers were holding off until after the
vote next Tuesday. The Northwest
ern miller survey showed -four busi-
ness in the Southwest dropped
sharply the past week to only %
per cent of capacity, compared with
122 per cent the previous week and
18 per cent a year ago. Sales in
the Northwest were around 40 per
cent compared with AZ per cent the
previous week and 81 per cent a
year ago.
Wheat price losses were held to y to
q cent in early trading but the mar
ket rallied quickly as a result Of
short coverings, and quotations at
times were about cent net higher.
Some of the recent selling was at
tributed to improved crop condi-
tionS in sections of the winter wheat
belt that received needed rains
early in the week, although some
experts said a check on luXuriant
growth may be beneficial
Mills have taken considerable
grain recently through sales by eles
vators clearing space for storage of
corn, but millers reported market
conditions indicated most bakers
are not booked very far ahead.
Corn prices were fractionally
higher most of the time, but oats
and rye showed little change. Soy
beans gained a cent.
Good demand for cash corn from
Eastern sources helped to keep
prices in the pit steady. Approx
mately 100000 bushels have been
shipped from Chicago so far this
week and stocks Of free" grain in
local elevators were believed to be
small. Increased quantities of new
corn have been offered in the spot
market.
Lard prices were about steady.

Ruling on Priority

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Oct. 30-Iron Age
said today the recent presldentlai
action establishing machinery for a
priority system in industry imme-
diately brought fresh rush OF steel
orders.
even though the voluntary system
of preferential rating of defense
orders has been working satisfac-
torily in the steel industry" the
magazine said, land may be con-
tinued for some time to come. the
growth in the volume of business for
national defense and the lengthen-
ing of deliveries on many steel prod
ucts have given rise to greater con-
Germ over future supplies among
commercial users of steel"
Demand has been particularly &C
tive from consumers and distributors
who failed to provide ample protec-
ton against the possibility of re-
strictions in supplies for non-mili-
tary purposes.
Watch Overbuying.
"It is suspected" asserted the re-
view, "that good many buyers are
trying to obtain more steel than
their prospective requirements call
for, and to guard against such over
buying steel companies are care
fully watching all orders.
"It is believed in the industry that
if users refrain from panicky buying
there will be ample supplies for all
consumers, provided delayed de-
hveries are accepted"

in pig iron prices posted by one pro-
