Some months ago I reported in
the Clarion how Mel Bates uncle
died up north, and left him with a
tidy fortune.
Naturally, our town was curious
to see how Mel would spend it:
Travelling around the world
getting new house or car
wearing fancy clothes or din

I'VE can now report, Mel hasn't
changed a bit! Drop in on him any

are hopeful that it will at least
get on the Senate calendar to be
brought up for consideration as
soon as the lawmakers return to
the Hill in January. Such chain
of events might prove to have GER
tain strategic advantages over
rushing the bill through Congress
late in July when the senator's are
eager to quit the Washington
scene. Through the summer they
would come face to face with con-
stituents who want a yes or no
answer about how they will vote
on the measure 1t will also bring
the vote within the election year
and no senator wants to offend
any part of his constituency dur
ing the fateful year.

N. Y. SYNAGOGUE OBSERVES
GOTH YEAR

NEW YORK (WNS)-The Con-
gregation Talmud Torah Adereth
El, celebrating here its Goth an
niversary at an impressive cere-
mony in the synagogue, received
a message of felicitation from
President Truman.
The Congregation was founded
on June z, 1857, and has occupied
the same site since its founding.
The land, according to the min
utes kept by the Congregation,
was donated by Christian black
smith at the suggestion of
Catholic priest whose church is
still located across the street from
the synagogue. The charter pro-
vides that as long as there are 10
Orthodox members in the Congre-
cation the synagogue is to con-
duct its services and activities in
the Orthodox spirit,
The celebration also marked the
rebuilding of the synagogue,
which has only recently been
modernized into a community
center.

WASHINGTON:

WASHINGTON:
BY the time this column ap-
pears a subcommittee of the Sen
ate Education and Public Welfare
Committee will be just winding up
the open hearings on the Ives
Chavez bill to create a permanent
Fair Employment Practices Com
mission.
Just before the hearings began
there was considerable optimism
about the bills chances for a IA
vorab1e hearing and possibly
successful fight when it reaches
the Senate floor. Senator Forrest
c. Donnel, Missouri Republican,
is chairman of the five-member
subcommittee which also includes
Senators Irving M. Ives of New
York, H. Alexander Smith of New
Jersey, both Republicans, and
Democrats James E. Murray of
Montana and Allen ]. Ellender OF
Louisiana. Ives, Smith and Muir
ray are sponsors of the bill. 1t is
considered likely that President
Truman will send special mes
sage to Congress to sharpen the
issue in the event that the bill hits
a snag-an impending filibuster,
for example.
Backers of the bill argue that
the international situation poses
two strong reasons why the bill
should be passed as early as pos
sible. First of all, our pretensions
of democracy and our attempt to
spread it abroad are rather farce
in view of our own shortcomings
in the matter of race relations.
Pravda was quick to point this
out after Secretary of State Mar
shall defined democracy as partly
the freedom to work where one
wants without fear of racial dis
elimination.
Another point raised is that, in
the event of a plan to give over
all economic aid to Europe in the
form of a peace-time lend-lease,
we will need full production in
order to supply enough food and
machinery to meet the world
emergency. Full production i'm
plies the use of all our resources
including those workers who
would be barred from employ
ment because of their race or their
religion.
An argument along this line
was presented by a witness ap-
pearing before the Presidents
Committee on Civil Rights. He
said he thought that, in the event
of another war, a Fair Employ
ment Practices Commission should
be established simultaneously with
the declaration of a state of emer-
gency in order that the country
could begin to operate at the top
of her productive capacity imme-
diately.
Should time run out before the
bill is brought to vote on the
Senate floor, hackers of the bill

Yes, by now, had he stuck to
his studies for the Jewish minis

to reap the rewards of having

At this stage he would have ar

The Dinner
Now the time has come when
Rabbi Sega1 is given testimonial
dinner in honor of his serving in
all the years. A big dinner! Well,
what do the speakers say? They
are members of the congregation
and they speak their sim p ! e
hearts.
The speakers extol the gentle
human quality they have found
in him. (Anyway, for the pur-
pose of this piece, let us take for
granted that Rabbi Segal had this
quality. "He has been like
a good brother" they say. They
recall the times he troubled him
self on account of their many
small affairs, their personal prob

time he shared tn e r worries
about their children: When Sam
had hard time making start

to straighten things out the time

have turned out unfortunate.

All that is best remembered of
him, as the congregation honors
Rabbi Segal. No speaker men

into the field of foreign affairs, or
his notable treatise on the dagish.
(Nothing was settled by his opin-
ions on foreign affairs; the world
kept going in its stupid way.)
Yes, nothing else that he did
was so rewarding at the end as
the pastoral service he gave his
congregation. In this light I an

PLAIN TALK
byALFRED 5EcAL /.
TESTIMONIAL

OF newark, IN. y. lie A1IlCAA-
can rabbi" says he, "has become
the master of ceremonies and the
errand boy of Jewish organiza-
tions. His life is divided between
invocations, addresses, lectures,
testimonial dinners and social af-
fairs within and outside of his
congregation" Rabbi Prinz thinks
the American rabbi should have
more time for study -. If he is
to fulfill his historic task in a
Jewish world bereft of thousands
of scholars and tens of thousands
of students" (He means the ones
who were killed by Hitler.)
Rabbi Prinz says he is happy
enough to be the guide, philoso-
pher and friend of his congrega-
ton but he thinks the main rab-
binical function is ito constitute
a conscience of Judaism, or reli-
gion, of morality; to possess, in
terpret and hand down the know
ledge of the Jewish heritage; to
be the leader and guide in the
problems of the world and of the
personal lives of the people who
have entrusted him with the posi-
ton of rabbi; to be the friend of
the young and old"
Our Rabbi
Well, that brings up the rabbi
problem which is discussed fire.
quently in Jewish circles. The
rabbis should hear what's said
about them on those occasions!
Whenever the matter comes up I
sit around in my reportial way
and take mental notes of the con-
'versation:
Mrs. Zilch: l think our rabbi is
Just wonderful.
Mrs. Glutz: AS for me he tires
me out when I have to listen to
him. S ~
Mrs. Arbuthnot: He seems to
pay more attention to his standing
among the non-JeWs than among
us.
Mrs. Zilch: That's what I like
about him. He is a sort of mis-
sionary for us to the Christians.
Mrs. Arbuthnot: My husband
thinks he's better known among
the Christians than he is among
us. He thinks a rabbi should stay
home more, if you get what /
mean.
Mrs. Zilch: My husband says a
rabbi should be a sort of public
relations man and that's what our
rabbi is.
Mrs. Glutz: I'd like him better
if he had come around to see me
the time I was sick in the hospi-
tai. Did he? No! He would have
been at my funeral, though, if ]
had died that time.
Mrs. Zilch: If the job of rabbi
is to hold your hand when you're
sick, then what's all his education
for? If I wanted somebody tc
hold my hand, then I know a lot
more glamorous men I'd rather
have do that for me than ou1
rabbi. We don't pay him to holc
your hand.
Mrs. Glutz: I think you're get
ting personal.
So it goes. It's an endless argu.
ment: Should the rabbi be pas
tor? Should he be the spokesman
for Israel in the public life Of
the community? Should he be
profound scholar? Should ht
serve as pundit telling the worlc
how its affairs should be run?
In Retrospect
To these questions this Mr.. Sc
gal has had occasion to make ap
proach in a personal sort of way
There is a fact of his life: If, long

HirohitO Fully
 Planned For War With United States

TOKYO, (P) - ScoWling, bald ing Marquis Koichi Kido, long time confidant and close adviser of Emperor Hirohito, spurned yes terday the popular theory that Hirohito was a "bumbling, inef- fectual ruler" who was pushed into the war by an all-powerful militaristic clique.
 KidO, who for five years was lord keeper of the priVy seal most coveted post in the Japanese empire-pictured an entirely diff ferent sort of emperor to the in- ternational military tribunal as his defense deposition was read.
 Kido's account portrayed Hiro- hito as being well informed and alert to Japan's course and the impending hostilities, which he re- fused to advocate or oppose.
 Once, Kido's deposition assert ed, he answered an imperial queS- ton as to the navy's attitude on war with the reply that " his majesty's decision is of such gray ity that once decided it could not be retracted."
 Despite the caution, he added, Hirohito called on his top admir- als, who assured him the navy was confident of success. The ruler then immediately decided to hold on schedule the imperial confer ence of December l, 1941, which was called-aS each participant knew-to decide formally on war with the United States.
 Kido reported numerous con- versations with the emperor and said that as early as Oct. l941, Hi

 City finances were reported at low ebb due to the fact that the Territory was unable to meet it's responsibilities for the school. The city has had to advance salaries, etc, for the Nome school until such time as the Territory will be able to repay the city.
 The cost of the necessary bulk head and needed new fire main pipes have also added to the ex- penses of the city, and it was es- timated that the city will not be able to meet all of it's obligations before the taxes for next year are received

Churchill Would
 Be Sorry To See Russia Quit U. N.

NEW YORK, (P) - Wins o n Churchill says he would be sorry if Russia and nations close to her walked out of the United Nations, but that he does not necessarily believe that would lead to war.
 Nor does the wartime British prime minister believe that Rus sia's 'violently aggressive line" of current propaganda is "the pre- Jude to war;" he said last night in radio broadcast from England to the Alfred F.. Smith memorial foundation dinner here.
 Tt may be that the Soviet gov ernment and their Communist fifth columns in so many countries will, at some moment or other, quit the United Nations organiza- tion," Churchill said. Then there would be what is called two worlds, and we should all be sorry to see that.
 If one of these worlds is far . more powerful than the other and is equally vigilant, and is also sin cerely desirous of maintaining peace, there is sho reason why a two-world system should lead to war"
 AS for "an unceasing stream of abuse upon the western World' which he said "the Soviet govern ments have poured out through their radio, in 26 languages y Churchill said he believed it was for internal purposes"

Lewis Calls Union Heads "Stately
 Asses" In Hot Rage

 Lewis took the gloves off in his first convention speech yesterday. stinging the leadership into fight ing mood by calling them "intel- lectually fat and stately asses" and adding:
 ''On this issue I don't think .he federation has a head. I think its neck has just grown up and haired over,"
 The issue he referred to was the signing of non-communiSt af- fidaVitS. That's what started the convention floor battle which was perhaps the hottest since Lewis toppled William L. HutcheSon, the carpenters boss, with one punch at the Atlantic City convention in 1885. Lewis took his miners out of the Federation after that and formed the CIO. He fell out with the CIO after l940, however, and made his peace again with the federation six years later.
 Hutcheson, who helped to per suade Lewis to get back in the AFL and backed him up on the affidavits fight within the l5-man executive council, failed to vote with him when the convention by standing vote overwhelmingly de- cided to amend its constitution and do away with its l3 vice-pres- idencies.

High Cost O Livin' Stops Marriages

LOS ANGELES, CP)-The high cost of living is deferring mfrri- ages. It's also raising hob with girls beauty treatments and nov ie-going.
 This testimony was given a joint Congressional investigating committee yesterday by Mrs. w. L. Stanton, California legislative member of the Y.W.C.A.
 She said a survey of l6O work ing girls showed that on their av- craze salary of $50 a month they had had to cut down on meat-pro- tein foods, beauty treatments, clothes, movies and even medical and dental care.
 "One-tenth said they have de- ferred marriage because of living costs" she said.
