A Message To
Southeastern Jewry
BY HARRY STERN
President Southeastern

OJ1Id6O6OS NO11CA C11CO
On this occasion I am happy
through the medium of the South
ern Jewish Monthly to extend
greetings to the Rabbis, Officers,
and members of the various syna-
gogues in the South affiliated
with the Southeastern Synagogue
Conference.
Full of confidence, hope, and
trust in CD, we face the New Year
57O7. May it indeed be one that
will bring surcease from sorrow
to all our people. May it bring
to each one of us health, happiness,
and that supreme contentment
which comes from a life devoted
to the service of our people and
humanity.
During the past year in the
SynagOgues of the Southeast affil-
lated with the Southeastern Syna-
gogue Conference we have cOntin-
ued to make great strides in our
efforts to consolidate and firmly
have been negotiating with the
national office of the Vaad Hachi-
much Hachraedi for the establish
ing of a special district office of
education to serve our SynagOgues.
Negotiations have almost been
completed and shortly we shall
have an educational director whose
task will be to bring about an
integrated program of education
in our various congregations. This
will be a vital step to bringing into
being that which is our most earn
est desire, the bringing back into
its own orbit of our "ETZ
CHAYIM" our tree Of life, the
TOrah.

Mayors throughout the country will be
asked to pay tribute in 15-minute radio
addresses One or more feature radio
programs participated in by outstanding
talent, are contemplated. Chambers OF
Commerce will be asked to display the
National Sunday School Week posters in
cities throughout the land. The Boy Scouts
Girl Scouts, Camp Fire Girls will assist.
Editors columnists and commentators aid
in the national movement, while many cor
porations help create interest through their
radio programs. Ministers, fraternal and
service organizations and feature writer's
will seek to popularize this worthy cause
and urge parents to encourage their chill
dren to attend Sunday School during Ma
tional Sunday School Week.
While such an occasion is not cure
all for current disregard of Christian
principles, by many adults as well as chill
dren, it is step in the direction of toler-
ance and good will toward all mankind.
Never in the history of the world was it
so important that every individual accept
his responsibility for making the future
in which we must live, better instead Of
worse. Sunday School Week is place
to start.

Democracy On Exhibit

Representatives from nations through
out the world are gathering in New York
City for the meeting of the United Ma
tons Organizations security council.
The presence of these men in our coun-
try would seem rare opportunity to put
on thrilling exhibition of democracy at
work-an exhibit which would leave them
with lasting impression that democracy
is the right answer to the problem of the
world.
But instead, we fear that this cos
mopolitan audience, as it studies our coun-
try today, will simply see the same old
show it is sick and tired of seeing in the
world theaters-just another exhibit of
discomfort, struggle, strikes, government
bungling, class warfare, racial prejudice,
widespread crime and political corruption.

Eat Less, Or Grow More?

Most Americans are in sympathy with
the idea of our nation doing all it can to
help feed less fortunate people throughout
the world. If necessary, we would be
willing to eat lot less than we did during
wartime in order to ship more food to mil
lions of people who are on the point of
starvation.
But we wonder if the "eat less" plan
is going to do as much to solve this prob
lem as would "grow more program.
During the warm spite of great short
ages of equipment and of farm help-our
farmers managed to break all records for
production.
Unfortunately, however, the shortage
Of farm equipment continues to be major
farm problem. If our government really
wants to do all it can to supply food to
the world, it should do lot more than it
has done SO far to wipe out the bottle
necks, labor difficulties, and price prob
lens which are delaying the production of
farm machines.

Bibles For Japan

The American Bible Society, of $50
Park Avenue, needs 100000 to pay for
100000 Bibles and 100000 New Testa-
ments, printed in japanese, to be shipped
Immediately to Japan, Rome A. Belts,
general secretary of the society, said yes
terday. This cost is estimated at 81 each
for the Bibles and 20 cents each for the
testaments.
The request for the Bibles and New
Testaments came from leading japanese
Christians in the Japan Bible Society and
were forwarded to the American Bible
Society in a letter from Colonel Ivan l..
Bennett, Chief Chaplain of the United
States Army Forces, Pacific Area Com
mand. -:
The translation of Scriptures into Jap
anese began in 1887, Mr.. Belts said, when
DIR. Charles Gutzlaff, of Macao, translated
the four Gospels of the New Testament,
and aided by grant from the American
Bible Society, had them printed in Singa-
pore for distribution -~
There is no doubt that Japan must be
christianized and must have Bibles, and
to supply Bibles there must be fund
The amount asked for is very small, meas
ured in terms of the good it may do.

Planting A Garden

Spring is definitely on the way, which
means garden-planting time is also near.
Ashe county probably has more acreage
!, in gardens, per population, than any other
in the state, and it also has the advantage
of cool climate during the hot summer
months
During the war we learned much ad
ditional information about gardens and the
many types of vegetables that can be
grown. Many of us cultivated a taste for
new vegetables and this will make us con-
tinue to cultivate these in our gardens.
In addition to the food value we CLEAN
from garden, there is the pleasure in
creating it. Of course we cannot always
achieve the results pictured in the seed
catalogues, but they are something to try
for And then there are the pesky in
sects that often become trying; but in
the end there is nothing so satisfying as
to go out and gather garden-fresh vege-
tables for the table,
One important thing to remember is
to start the garden in time. Another
thing to remember is to go to the proper
source for needed information. The coun-
~ agent can supply this or tell you where
it can be secured. Often little infor-
nation can save lot of trouble, worry
and work
Lei asrsmemberthat even if the war is
over there is still big demand for food
and that by, growing garden we will be
helping III taes food production program.
Start now to plan yours.

STRENGTHENING Time

Now is sthe time to do some spring
e3eanihg. Let's start with our vacant lots,
md streets. The winter winds have scat
tered trash here and there. But with
little extra effort on the part of the town
Is well as individual property owners, this
could be collected and removed. Some of
xAis has been done, but there is still more
that must. be accomplished if we are to
give our town a spring cleaning.
Not only should the towns clean up for
spring. but so should all property owners
IN the country as well. This summer we
viii have more visitors than ever before,
according to predictions and the impression
they gather as they ride along the high
! ways of our county should be the best.
The painting Of unsightly buildings, re-
-noval Of rubbish and, trash, and of course
planting, all go to improve the landscape.
Let's do a little work to help nature out
before the grass and flowers come again.
This section is richly endowed with nat
ural beauty, let's add to this by cleaning
Q up rather than having it marred by trash
!. and rubbish.
