WORLD CRISIS AND
JEWISH SURVIVAL

Time. and again we have had the
pleasure of hearing DR.. Abba Hill
lei Silver deliver one of his bril-
liant addresses. AS we read
WORLD CRISIS AND JEWISH
SURVIVAL Orchard r. Smith
New York; we seem to be listen
ing again to the voice of Ameri-
can Jewry's outstanding orator :.
The volume is not heavy reading
for anyone who has even the
slightest interest in the Jewish
future. -
DR.. Silver expresses a sublime
faith in the inevitable survival of
the Jewish people f.. To him the
question primarily is of HOW they
will survive He poses the
query rhetorically thus: "Shall it
Jewish survivaI) be affirmatively
and challengingly, as in the gen
eral period of our past, holding
our banners high in day of bat
tie and storm; or negatively
creeping into the hooks and cram
MES of the earth, waiting for the
wrath to pass and grateful for
the mere gift of existence ="
We agree with the rabbits con-
clusion that the Jewish people as
a whole will not consent to a
passive role of abdication anc
escapism in meeting the threat OF
determination Yet we are
tempted sorely to think OF some
individual Jews whom we know
here in Florida who do their ut
most to escape Jewish responsible
tiles In our fair southern cline
perhaps the weather is a not IN
considerable factor in the indiffer-
emf attitude of many Jews toward

nator in Jewish life-philanthropy
The sunshine seems to have
a soporific effect particularly or
q number of our wealthy corelig-
ionists about the time OF the an
NAL drives for Jewish welfare
funds When we think OF
these things we wish that a good
dose of Silver's book somehow
could be administered to them
Perhaps it might shake them from
their lethargy and smugness. Who
Knows? Miracles still happen.

Hand in hand go the twin evils,
red-baiting and Jew-hating
This fact becomes clearer in

as he parades the red-baiters be-
fore us, naming names and places
-. exposing the false patrioteers,
the demagogues, the real enemies
of the democratic society they
pretend to guard.

he was on board the submarine.

GREEN CHICKS ARE
MATCHED FROM EGGS
WITH GREEN YOLKS

1t sounds almost unbelievable, but
at the International Baby Chick
Convention in st. Louis, Missouri,
last summer thousands of persons
had their first opportunity to see
colored chicks Matched from eggs
with bright. vivid green yolks.
For several years now, poultry nu-
triton specialists have been con-
trolling yolk color. The range of
control has been from yolks with
almost no color to bright red or
green. The purpose has been to show
that a hens ration not only directly
controls yolk color bat that it also
controls certain nutrients and vita
minis that are i'll the egg.
This year, Purina Mills decided to
try Matching chicks from eggs with
green yolks. What happened was
so startling that the Purina display
at the big annual convention of
h a tic herymen featured chicks
Matched from green yolked eggs.
The display included a pen of five
pullets eating laying mash In
which the green coloring matter was
mixed. Actually, eggs with green
yolks were produced right at the
convention. Naturally, the eggs at
tracted a great deal of attention.
Each day, two newly Matched
chicks from green yolked eggs that
had been previously set were autop-
sled and displayed in a glass case.
The effect of the ration fed the
breeders could plainly be seen. It
was amazing how the green coloring
matter had been transferred from
breeder hens ration to the chick
through the egg.
According to G. S. Johnson, head
Of the poultry department at Purina
Mills, the Importance of properly
feeding breeder hens so they can
put into their eggs the proper nu-
trients for the development Of the
chick embryo is becoming better un-
derstood each year. AS a result,
embryo feeding is taking its place
alongside breeding, disease control,
and incubation as one of the most
important factors influencing Iva
bility, growth and future profit with
chicks.
