YOm Kippur to
Be Observed
September z

The Jewish Day of Repentance,
Yom Kippur, will be observed as
a day of prayer and fasting on
Wednesday, September q. AS is
customary in the Synagogue, the
eve of the holiday will be mark
ed by a religious service which
derives its name, Kol Nidre, from
the opening prayer for the occa-
sion.
Jewish thoughts adheres to the
doctrine of sin, which Judaism
considers a potent agency for re-
igious and moral regeneration,
despite the generally accepted
philosophy of Herbert Spencer
that mankind is automatically be-
coming better and better. It holds
that the improvement noted by
that great philosopher dealt with
the means whereby men live rath-
er than the ends for which men
live. The moral advance of man
kind is still pictured in the Bibli-
cal. ideal of the kingdom of God
as contrasted to the kingdom of
science.
The prayers of ''The Day. en-
phasize the fact that men and ma
tons may be heir to all the tech
nologies and still violate every
dictate of the law of God.
One of the great teachings OF
Yom Kippur, which is of especial
interest in these days of stress on
democratic ideals, is symbolized
in the reading of the Book OF
Jonah with its perennial en-
phasis upon the equality of all
men before God.

Anything that union members

Workers are not jealous over the
fact that farmers have Jared well

The only way that degree Of

POSTWAR PROSPECTS
After the last war, farm prices.
which had become seriously in
fiated due to lack of price control,
collapsed. The collapse came with

publicans under first Harding, then
Coolidge and finally Hoover. For
example, farm income which was
$8.79 billion In 1919 under Wilson
shrank to $2.99 billion in 1921 under
Harding.
by 1888, after four years Of
Hoover, distress sales Of farms
i.e., fOreclOsed mortgages, tax
sales and the like-were SAL per
cent OF the total Of all farm sales.
