species in each of these directions
we give testimony to the sover-
eighty of the Almighty over the
four corners of the world and in
the Heaven above as well as upon
the Earth beneath. Another rea-
son given is that the motions serve
as a symbol of prayer to the
Almighty to keep the evil and de-
structive winds away from all
four directions and to keep away
harmful rain from the Heaven
above and poisonous dew from the
Earth beneath. Still another rea-
son is advanced, but not popularity
advised. It is claimed that the
species are waved in all directions
to mock Satan who had been the
prosecuting agent during the High
Holidays, but whose evil gestures
had been overcome by the fasting,
prayer and penitence we exerted
during the High Holidays.

to you warmest Rosh Hashonan
greetings and to express to you
our profound gratitude for the ef-
forts you have made during the
past year to present and clarity
Jewish migration problems to
your many readers.
You have brought closer to the
American Jew the problems OF his
brethren, here and overseas. You
have brought before the great
American Jewish public the ques-
lions of migration and relief, and
by your cooperation have aroused
in the public a greater interest
in these matters.
May the New Year bring peace
and happiness to everyone, and to
you may the New Year begin a
year of fruitful endeavor.
Very sincerely yours,

QUESTION:: What are the

ANSWER: During the Hallel

species are waved towards the
four points of the compass, and
upwards and downwards, thus
making six distinct motions. These
motions are called "Na-anuim"
which means motions or waves"
QUESTION: Why is this done?
ANSWER: The Talmud (Trac-

priminent reason is the fact that

Free speech
To the Editor:

" Lie L6A4OAs
Am I wsong in stating that the
only qualifications that civilized
men should impose upon the ex-
ercise of freedom of discussion
are:
t1l A ban on engaging in any
way whatsoever in spreading
race prejudice. anti Semitism. or
melting haired of other ma
tionalities.
ID A ban against the perse-
cution of anyone because of his
religious beliefs or lack of re-
ligious beliefs.
Whatever communists can be
accused of, they certainly do not
advocate racism or -Semitism
in any of its forms. Quite the
contrary - as witness their en-
barassing insistence upon equal
rights for the Negro people.
They do not advocate preju-
dice against or discrimination
against any of the different ma
tionalities.
The American public may con-
tinuousIy reject the idea as is
their democratic right as regards
all ideas.
But outlaw the Communist
Party and what real need have
we left for civil liberties? For
the Constitutional guarantees
contained in the Bill of Rights?

The Suns Mr. Akers ond the Communists

The newspapers scarcely men
toned these crimes during the
war.
While we were fighting a life
and death struggle with our
enemies the news industry didn't
say too many unkind things about
the fascists.
Our foes in the last war fought
for an theology. In their view
the billionaires of all countries
were sacred; and the common peo-
pies of all countries, dirt.
Mad Man Adolph murdered and
slaughtered the freedom-loving
people of all countries but never
the hair of a Millionaire was
harmed.
Is that the reason for the. kindly
attitude of the press toward our
enemy?

TO the Editor:

In Saturdays SUN, columnist
Milburn P. Akers criticized Mr..
Gil Green, Communist Party lead
er for Illinois, for presuming to
join with other liberals in Spring
field urging the Legislature to
pass State FEPC bill.
The fact that Communists IA
vor such a bill seems a telling
argument against it, for Mr.. Ak
ers. He must know Communists
favor ceilings on rent, favor a
Federal anti-lynching law with
teeth in it, want National FEPC,
want to abolish the poll-tax as a
condition for voting, fight jim
crow discrimination and anti-Sem-
itism in all their form. They OPP
pose the drive to weaken the pro-
tective laws labor has achieved
in the past is years.
Mr.. Akers wants Communists
to be very quiet and secretive
about what they favor and what
they oppose, for fear they may
provide telling arguments" for
their reactionary enemies.
He condones, even justifies the
opposition he says is thus aroused
by falsely saying Communists
will never cooperate, they must
dictate" in the very article in
which he tells of the cooperation
offered by the Communists for
a bill they did not originate.
