Action Deferred
In Tearing Down
Condemned Units

At their meeting last night
City Commissioners deferred ac-
ton in passing a resolution that
would call for demolition OF
seven Key West buildings said
20 be dangerous, unsanitary and
detrimental to the health and
welfare of the community.
Condemnation proceedings to
have the buildings removed were
started several months ago.
Extension Is Granted
City Clerk Roy Hamlin read
for the Commissioners a letter
from Johnson & johnson, real es-
tate managers, asking that con-
demnation proceedings against
property owned by DR.. Eugene c.
Lowe be temporarily deferred
until machinery valued at $4,000
could be removed from the build
ing, known as the Singleton Ma
chine Works, at Greene and
Elizabeth streets.
On motion of Commissioner
Carbonell a 30-day extention was
granted for removal of the ma
chinery.
Hamlin advised the Commits
sioners that a second condemna-
ton proceedings case, hanging
fire since last January, was still
listed under unfinished business
and that nothing had been done
about it.
Ignores All Requests
He said that despite requests
and warnings, Louis Goldsteln, OF
West Palm Beach, owner of six
buildings on Francis street, had
refused to either repair or dis
mantle the buildings, as demand
ed by the city building inspector.
II was the opinion of j. Lance
lot Lester, city attorney, that be-
fore the city went ahead and de-
molished the six buildings it
should first appoint board to
investigate the property and
make a written report of its con-
dition to the Commission. Such
action, he pointed out, might pre-
vent the city from being sued for
demolishing the property without
the owners consent.
The Commission passed reso-
luton authorizing City Manager
o. ]. S. Ellingson to appoint an
investigating board for this prop
erty.

Key West Jews
Set TOObserye
Most Holy Day

From shutdown, Friday, Octo-
Der 4, until shutdown the follow
ing day Jews. everywhere will
observe Yom Kippup. or the Day
of Atonemen.. It is the most sa-
cred and solemn day in the Jew
iSh year, and as such, will be OBJ
served with special prayers and
rituals. Unlike other Jewish holi-
days, the Day of Atonement has
no historical background. 1t is a
day given over to introspection
and contemplation. On the New
Year, the Book of Life was open
ed. On the Day of Atonement
that Book is sealed. And before
being closed, Jews everywhere
will fast and pray in order that
they may be written down for
good life. 1t is primarily a day for
the searching of the heart to find
peace with God.
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1946-10-02
Begins With Prayer

The Day of Atonement begins
with the Kol Nidre prayer, which
is regarded with reverence and
awe. On the Day of Atonement
the Jew prepares to pour out his
heart to God who sits in judg-
ment over him, and to pray for
forgiveness of his sins. The con-
fession of sins is an integral part
of the days observance. In addi-
ton to the confession, a solemn
resolution is made to make
amends and not to repeat the
same sins, but to live a life of
greater spiritual worth during
coming twelve months. The Day
of Atonement thus represents
mans striving for a more perfect
world, a world in which there
will be no wrong-doing or evil
thinking.
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1946-10-02
Services for Departed

During the Day of Atonement
there will be held the usual Viz
kor, or Memorial Service for the
departed. During this port of the
service, the dead will be special
ly called to mind, and prayer re-
cited in their behalf. The Day of
Atonement will be concluded
with the service of Ne'ilah, or
The Closing. At this time it was
customary to close the gates of
the Temple of Jerusalem. Today,
however, ii is interpreted as tie
time when, after the prayers for
the day have been concluded,
the gates of heaven are finally
closed. This moment of the serv-
ice is of special significance, as
it. represents the last opportunity
for reconciliation with God.
Key West Jews will observe
Yom Kippur at the local syna-
gogue on October 5 from a. m.
until shutdown. Rabbi Simon
April will be in charge of serv-
ices at the local synagogue, and
Rev. E. Golden will chant the ira
ditional Hebrew Liturgy.
