Yon1 Ripper, the Day Of Atone-
1ilent, Is essentially q day for self
examination. It calls the Jew in
judgment before the bar Of his own
conscience. The Day Of Atonene1lt
Is regarded as the most SOLEMN day
In the Jewish Religious calendar. It's
central theme Is that Of repentance
for wrongs committed by the In.
dividual, and for the determination
on his part TO avoid sin wherever
possible. It demands on the part
Of the Jew the recognition Of his
sin, his confession before God and
his own soul Of his wrong doings,
and wherever possible, the undoing
Of the wrong that he has done TO
others. It Is intended to make sin
hateful to the Jew.
The day Is Of such importance to
the Jew that even those who at
other times are not especially OBJ
servant Of religious forms gather
together TO worship the God Of
their fathers. It Is likely this year
that thousands Of Jews serving In
the armed forces viii hold services
wherever they may be. Tradition
ally, the day Is marked by special
prayers and the abstinence from
food and drink from eventide to
eventide. The purpose Of the fast
Is to turn mans thoughts away
from material things and to en-

Results may be obtained from the
establishment Of a cooperative pro-
gram for vigorous enforcement OF
state and local housing regulations
as shown in the city Of Stamford
during the last few years, according
to Eugene L. Lehr, @. E. Housing
Engineer, in an article in the cur
rent Monthly Bulletin Of the State
Department Of Health. Buildings
UNIT for human occupancy were de-
molished and rehabilitated dwellings
to provide safe living quarters were
substituted. This was brought about
through the coordinated activities Of
the city health department and q
newly formed housing committee
consisting Of the health commits
sioner, building inspector, fire chief
and two members Of the housing
authority. In 1910 an engineer was
added to the stair Of the city health
department and he acts as secretary
Of the housing committee.
2,288 Inspections
During the first year Of activity,
1888 dwelling units were inspected,
and to July IL, 1913, substandard
living conditions had been elimin-
ated or were in the course Of elm
nation in 242 dwelling units. OF
these, 4S dwelling units were de-
molished, 10 were effectively vacated
SO were brought up to standard, and
90 are being brought up to standard,
An analysis was also made Of
inspection records Of $40 dwelling
units In 74S structures from a sci
ected downtown area by cooperative
arrangement between the Health
Commissioner and the staff Of the
Committee on the Hygiene OF Hous'
ing of the American Public Health
Association, early in 194l. The fig
ures showed that there was consid'
ernble substandard housing In thu
area. About one-fourth Of thu
structures were occupied by more
than one person per room, ant
about the same proportion were
found to be infested with vermin
Tifty-four per cent Of the structures
were In need Of minor repair, II

This new and somewhat des-

sionary to India, author and for
mer bishop, in an article for the Of
fetal Methodist organ, The Christ

eral government.
Il am not interested in one
church absorbing the rest" DR..
Jones writes. In the first place
it will not happen !. s. if it did
happen it would impoverish the
expression of Christianity"
There would be the Lutheran
branch, the Baptist branch, etc, of
the one church. Each branch
would recognize the others, and
"all confess that Jesus is the
Christ. the Son of the Living
God"
Delegates from branches would
make up the sovereign general
assembly, which could represent
both branches and membership.

Doctrinal matters would remain
prerogatives of the branches.
Above this would be a world as
sembly. Dr. Jones considers the
various church councils in u. s.
India, China, Great Britain as
workable foundations.
State and local assemblies
would deal with matters of over
tapping and duplication of re-
ligious efforts. DIR. Jones believes
needless competition may be thus
eliminated, and amalgamations
brought about.
