ABINGDON. Va, May IA
Washington County Circuit Court
jury last night found Mrs. Ellen
Talbert Clark, A, guilty of murder

The jury of II farmers and one
merchant received the case at 5:35

Defense counsel moved that the
jury's verdict be set aside and the
defendant granted a new trial on
grounds to be assigned in writing at

Mr., Newton, Damascus High
School football coach, was found
dead in his room at the Clark home.
where he boarded, on November 10,
l945. Mrs. Clark told officers that
Mr.. Newton shot himself and that
she then left her home after lock-
ing the front door and went to
Bristol to join her daughters at a
movie.
The prosecution sought to prove
during the trial that Mrs. Clark was
in love with Mr.. Newton and that
jealousy was the motive for the
Staying with which she was charged.
The defense contended that Mr.,
Newton took his own life.

Bus and Streetcar
Terminal Indorsed
For Barney Circle

Plans for new streetcar and bus
terminal at Barney Circle, Seven
teenth street and Pennsylvania ave-
nue. Sc, were announced last night
at a meeting of the Lincoln Park
Citizens Association. The associa-
ton voted to indorse the project
which would cost about 81 100000
The plan calls for the entrance of
cars and buses through an under
ground passage emerging at a ter
minal on the west side of the circle
at Fifteenth and K streets. The
terminal would eliminate the cross
ing of bus and streetcar lines.
The terminal would be on street
level.
The latest plan announced by the
District Highway Department and
the National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission calls for an un-
derground streetcar terminal, but
provides that the bus terminal be
constructed on the surface. 1t was
felt that fumes from the buses un-
derground would be Objectionable.
The Lincoln Park plan was orig
mated by Alfred D. Calvert, who last
night was reelected president of the
association. Mr.. Calvert said the
plan has the approval of the South
east Council of Citizens Associa-
tions, representing II associations.
The group commended William A.
Xanten, superintendent of the Dis
trict Refuse Department, for his
plan to keep the alleys clean. 1t
recommended that Adelbert w. Lee
be reappointed to the School Board
at the expiration of his term.
A motion was passed indorsing
the plan for turning No. 10 engine
house over the Trinidad Boys Club.
Other officers unanimously re-
elected were William B. Phalen, first
vice president; Levy R. Tindal, Sec
ond vice president; B. Frank Camp
bell, treasurer, and Woodrow w.
Miller, secretary.
The meeting, last Of the season.
was held in Epworth Methodist
Church, Thirteenth street and North
Carolina avenue NE.

Huge Gasoline Tank Fire
Menaces Town for 6 Hours
By the Associotsd Press

WAUKON, Iowa, May IA roar
ing fire fed from tanks containing
$4,000 gallons of high-test motor and
aviation gasoline was extinguished
late yesterday after endangering for
six hours the southern portion of
Waukon, a city of 5000 population.
A strong south wind, coupled with
the work of firemen from Waukon
and four nearby towns, prevented
flames from spreading to residences
and warehouses nearby. All we're
evacuated to prevent possible inju-
ries in the event of explosions and
bystanders were kept at a distance
of two blocks.
The only casualty reported was an
unidentified boy, whose hair was
singed by the blast.
The fire started when a workman
at gasoline station threw a switch
to load truck. A spark was be-
lleved to have ignited gasoline
fumes in the pumphouse, which
soon was a mass of flames.

Some of Us Jews are tired OF
complaining and weary Of sToan-
ina because Of our Jewish ties
and are eager TO proclaim our
Judaism in joy and In sladness.
We are weary of hearing Juda-
ism bracketed with persecution.
When we hear men say that Jews
and Judaism are held together
by the venom Of the anti
Senites. we feel at the bottom
of our hearts that il IS a libel
and a lie. Ten thousand martyrs.
and more. mock at such cTuditY
Of spirit.
Some would disown their own
if they could There are men and
women in the world who disown
their own parents, prostitute ev-
cry ideal, just to get at what
ever greasy flesh pot there be
within their reach That IS a
streak in human nature that is
not limited to Jews as witness
the scramble for the Fascist
bandwagons in Germany, Italy,
Spain, and everywhere else IN
the world. 1t takes depth and
conviction and courage to be a
Jew positively and ioyously. Not
every Jew-poor mortal that he
is-has this capacity. The aver
age person goes with the pack.
That is why the Jew who joins
a fashionable church is invari-
ably mighty poor stuff He is an
opportunist, abusing that church.
He puts to mean ends some
thing that is sacred to other
people.
The story is told of a pious
Jewish gentleman. of the old
school who received very tender
care at the hands of a nurse.
He was anxious to know if she
were Jewish. Surely. he felt. such
a fine. understanding, sYmpathe-
tic person. must be Jewish. He
mustered sufficient courage to
ask her. She told him that she
was not. He felt sorry for her.
and tried to comfort her. ut is
perfectly all right. child" he
said. not every person can be
Jewish"
The religious Jew speaks a
special prayer thanking God for
the privilege of being a Jew.
Innumerable Jews. tortured in
the hell Of concentration camp,
spoke this prayer with intense
sincerity.
Why are we Jews happy in
our Judaism?
One reason is that being Jew
ish means belonging to a spiri-
tual communitY-a community of
conscience: a community of
teachers. sages. prophets. mar
tYrs; a community held together
by magic ties. not by forts and
guns and special privilege.

daisn, and however We may a.

mitted to abide. Judaism found
welfare. understanding. and ac-
knowledgement. Wherever the
feeling for humanity and for
righteousness began to stir. q
Jewish community was able to
breathe in peace. The degrade
ton of the Jew was never an
isolated phenomenon. but only
one incident. though the saddest
in a general enslavement. In the
same way. their emancipation
has everywhere been only a part.

Live fish swim against the
stream One can not swim against
the stream spiritually unless he
is alive spiritually.
The menace of totalitariauisrn
has not been lifted from our
sad earth. Spiritual uainorities
are imperative if we are to a.
vert the evil from descending
upon US. The Jew who is a Jew.
consciously and joYfully. is a
warrior for the Lord. in a very
literal sense.
Hence some of us rejoice in
our heritage, and we thank God
that we are Jews, for-if we are
religious-it is far better that
we be prosecuted than we turn
prosecutor.
Fourth. Jews are warm-heart-
ed. affectionate. sentimental peo-
pie. Are we troublesome? Indivi.
duaistic? Nuisances? Yes, some.
times. But. We take care of our
own. There are no drunkards
among US. There are no pauperz
in our midst burdening the qen-
eral community. Our home LIE
is decent. We have not cuItivat.
ed bull fights. nor sanauinarv
cock fights.
We are not made of better
stuff Human nature is woefullv
much alike everywhere. But, be-
ing Jews, we were conditioned
along spiritual lines; that is our
heritage, and in that we rejoice.
