ers who visit the zoo these days to
see, what's left of its once-great
animal collection remark that the
geological gardens are doing good
job as vegetable garden.
With its animal population down
nearly 80 percent due to wartime
losses and dispersals and postwar
starvation, the big zoo has lots of
vacant yards and pens. But enter
prising keepers are permitting very
little wasted space.
WGlfing the Beans
In what were once wolf pens

crops of cabbage, tomatoes and

has a yardful of corn, beans and
beets. Food conscious adults adj

their chattering children cluster

Despite its decimated popula-

especially on week-ends. Located in
the British sector of the city, at the
end of once-glittering Kurfuersten-

of occupation troops and their de-

INFORMATION FOR VETS
ON G. /. HOME LOANS

The 10 questions most frequently
asked by World War III veterans
about G. /. Hoe loans were answer
ed today by Veterans Administra-
ton.
VA complied the queries in a
survey it conducted recently to
learn how much veterans know
about their Federal benefits.
The questions and answers fol-
low:
@. Where should veteran go to
get G. /. home loan?
A. He first must find a bank or
savings and loan association or
other private lenders willing to
make the loan.
@. Where does the Veterans Ad-
ministration come in?
A. VA guarantees up to $4,000, but
no more than half the loan, made
by the private lender to the veteran.
This guaranty helps protect the
lender from loss. VA does NOT
lend money to the veteran.
@. How much can the veteran
borrow?
A. AS much as the lender is will
ing to lend, but the maximum VA
guarantee will be $4,000.
@. What are some of the advan-
tages of G. i. home loan to the
veteran?
A. q) Because of the VA guaran-
ty, the lender is more willing to
make loan; GU the VA guaranty
encourages the lender to make the
loan without requiring down pay
ment, CD the interest rate "A per-
cent maximum is low.
@. Doesn't the veteran also get a
gratuity payment of some kind?
A. Yes, VA pays to the lender, for
credit to the veterans loan, an
amount equal to 4 percent of the
guaranteed portion of the loan. For
example, if the guaranteed portion
is $4,000, the lender will receive
$120 from VA to credit to the debt
of the veteran.
@. Must the veteran have cash to
make a down payment?
A. No. But if a down payment is
required by the lender, 1t Will moi
prevent the veteran from obtaining
q guaranteed loan.
@. Who pays the appraisers fee
A. The veteran. This fee usually
is about SIS or $40.
@. Can veteran join with a non
veteran to buy two-family home?
A. Yes, provided the veterans in
terest is properly protected to pre-
vent any loss to him in event tn,
non-veteran defaults.
@. How about loan where tn,
FILA insures the first mortage TO
say 80 percent of the price of tn
house and the veteran wishes t,
borrow additional money to cove
the balance?
A. VA can guaranty a secondar,
loan for the balance, provided tn
secondary loan does not exceed 2
percent of the purchase price.
@. Can a veteran repay all o
part of his loan at any time durin
the life of the loan?
A. Yes, and without paying an
fee or premium.

would be honored. Sure, the rabbi
was right, as your correspondent
has reason to know from personal
experience of having tried to be
prophet not only in the matter
of Willy, the great football player
but in similar causes. The payoff
that this prophet got consisted
mostly of insulting letters.
But 100 years are long time to
wait for honor and who can be
sure that prophet will be hon
ored even after 100 years?
Regardless, the best way for a
Jew is to be prophetic, anyway, in
accordance with his inheritance
to speak up courageously against
st any injustices upon whomever
inflicted, to be the champion of
justice for the underprivileged,
the dispossessed and the reviled.

Our ancestors used to read

ancient rabbis. By reading and
studying those we pay tribute
to the spiritual leaders of the
past.
incidentally, the same rabbis
whose wisdom we admire are
otherwise known under the name
of Pharisees. Let me tell it right
away: 1t is an objectionable sin,
if Jews because of either ignor-
ance or mental laziness follow
the general trend and speak of
Pharisees with contempt or de-
rision. Once and for all we will
have to learn that the name
Pharisee stands for teacher or
interpreter. Never for hypocrite.
The rabbis or Pharisees, the au-
thors of Pirke Aboth, realized
that there should be harmony be-
tween teaching and practice, that
one cannot preach one thing and
practice another. This is one of
of the reasons why the Sayings
we read and study are of such
