School is totally inadequate pre-
paration for intelligent parncl-
patton in Jewish life.
The "pros" of the Jewish Day
School are obvious. While the
Talmud Torah and the Sunday
School cannot hope even to
scratch the surface of the trea-
sures of Jewish knowledge, the
Jewish Day School, with approx
imately twenty hours of Jewish
instruction each week, has prov
en- successful in giving its stu
dents a thorough grounding in
the Hebrew language and in the
sacred and secular literatures for
which it serves as a vehicle.
There is no sorrier type of Jew
than the Jew by anti-Semitism"
who knows little more about Ju-
daism than that Jews have al
ways been hated and prosecuted.
The ever increasing victims OF
Jewish inferiority completes"
regard Judaism as a strain JAG
ket. They want to free themselv-
es from it, but they cannot; anti
Semitism will not let them.
There is only one remedy for
this Jewish malady which af-
flicts many of our sons and
daughters: a thorough Jewish
education which enables young
Jews to discover the hmitless
spiritual advantages and salts
factions of Jewishness. Here lies
the explanation of the populari-
ty of the Jewish Day School.
One need not be orthodox
to appreciate the tremendous adj
vantage of a Jewish Day School
training. There are, indeed, hun

Day School. only yesterday the
step-child of the American Jew
ish community. is now in the
center of public interest = even
with those who oppose the very

Approximately thirty JEWS b
Day Schools have opened in the
past year and the movement is
moving ahead.
The phenomenal growth of the
Jewish Day School movement
springs from the realization by
many Jewish parents that the

Objections frequently raised
against the Jewish Day School

its emphasis on Jewish subjects

Jewish children renders their
indignation into the American
community difficult, if not inn
possible. Besides, opponents ar

opposition of the American peo-
pie to "parochial' educational
endeavors of religious and other
minority groups.
Let us examine these objec-
tons. Approximately 10000 Jew

Jewish Day Schools. On the
strength of available data, it has
been proven that the course OF

ID. {. Coal Stockpi|e
Held Adequate for
One Month Needs

Washington can weather q
months coal strike should John l.
Lewis carry out his threat to call
the United Mine Workers off their
jobs Sunday night, dealers and large
users reported today.
Utilities, industries, laundries,
public and private buildings can get
through the month of April on the
available supply and probably can
get by longer by sharing, according
to the coal experts.
Home owners have nothing to
worry about, they said, because the
strike threat involves bituminous
mines, supplying soft, industrial
coal. The anthracite mines, supply
ing most of the coal for private
homes, are not expected to be af-
fected before May /, when most
home owners shut off their furnaces
for the summer.
The Potomac Electric Power Co.
reported that it has 115,000 tons of
coal, a six-week supply. 1t prefers,
however, to keep one months supply
in reserve at all times. The COM
pany usually stocks up in anticipa-
ton of the annual coal negotiations,
but coal has not been easy to get
this spring, spokesman said.
He explained that in prewar years
the company could contract for a
million tons of coal on April l. Now
the company must continue to shop
for coal throughout the year, and
even when it gets large supply, the
Solid Fuels Administration may di-
vert some of it to other users, he
said.
The Washington Gas Light Co.
has a normal supply of 10000 tons
of coal and coke, which will last As
days. The Potomac Yards rail CEN
ter has a reasonable" 30-day sup
ply, according to Charles McCarty,
manager.
Besides the yards own supply, 1t
has coal piles for four railroads. The
