human cargo whose heavy-laden
hearts weigh down the conscience
of free society, that the Jewish
homeland is more a prison farm
than land of opportunity.
Israel is the incorrigible optimist
of the ages. No amount of con-
temporary upheaval can under
mine his historic faith in Gods
watchfulness over the affairs of
Man. A world that came away
from the brink of ruin and that is
dismayed at controlling it's newly
discovered destructive power of
elements, cannot for long shut its
ears to the prophetic plea and
promise-the judgment of truth
leads to true peace.
With optomism born of faith we
convene to pray on Rosh Hashonah
and Yom Kippur for life and hap
piness in our own family circles
and for the ultimate triumph of
brotherly regard in the family of
man that will spell human welfare
and salvation.

Israel in whose name the Prophet
Zechariah spoke:

Fear We not.
These are the things that. We
shall do:
Speak we every man the truth
with his neighbor;
Execute the judgment of truth
and peace in your gates"
Amity is lacking among nations,
the glow of kindness is faint over
the conference tables where the
fate of dependent peoples is dis
cussed and decreed. Small Won

Against Leaving
Nc A d dress

A great number of wal brides
most OF them English, have ar

cording to Jennings Otis, U. S.
immigration official.
Though all the foreign brides
who have come to this city have
not remained here to live. they
have been instructed at the port
of entry to contact the immigra-
ton office here.
According to Otis, some of the
brides have not reported to the
office and are not known at the
addresses given on their official
papers. He further said that all
living in this territory should on
tact the immigration office, 231
p%ostoffice building. Immediately,
in order that their papers may
be completed.
AS the only immigration office
in the state is located in Whining
ton, war brides who are now re-
siding in other North Carolina
cities may contact this office.
Yesterday Mrs. Leonard Ray
mond Barber, formerly Miss Emf

Turned to Horseback Riding.
For recreation in the years when
hard work was a matter of routine
Mrs. Truman often turned to horse
back riding over the unfenced plains
But 1t was not the "hell-for- leather
type of riding SO popular in the
movies.
"Of course, I rode e-saddle, ii
Mrs. Truman exclaimed on one oc-
casion. I'm strictly opposed to
women wearing trousers. Girls look
Just as terrible in trousers now, too. y
Mrs. Trumans girlhood was spent
In an area of border raids during
the Civil War period. and her life
time adherence to the principles OF
the Democratic Party began in early
youth.
She was born November d, 1852
on a Jackson County farm n the
vicinity of what is now Thirty-third
street and Agnes avenue, near the
center of Kansas City. Her parents
had pressed Westward across the
plains from Kentucky only 10 years
previously.
Her parents were Solomon and
Harriet Louisa Young, who were
the victims OF the fierce warfare
along the embattled Kansas-Mis-
souri, line. Soon after Mrs. Truman
was born, her family moved to a
farm south of Grandview and later

, to farm north of the village Some
of this land still remains in the
Truman family.

City from Grandview and askee
that the press be informed.
Although Mr.. Truman smilingly
told newsmen when he returned to
Washington that such unheralded
flights were not habit-forming, he
repeated the surprise visit on the
eve of Mrs. Truman's Gath birthday.
Nothing OF this was publicly known
until his sister announced the event
in Grandview.
Mr.. Truman made these flying
trips home as often as he felt he
could leave the White House. The
first was at celebration in :-nde-
pendence. where he formerly lived
When he arrived so minutes late
at an auditorium where 5000
persons We're awaiting a speech, he
explained he had gone to Grandview
to visit his mother.
Mothers Spirit Praised.
Three days after Mrs. Truman
fractured her right hip while pre-
pairing to retire on February 13,
Mr.. Truman few to Grandview,
his arm filled with roses, carnations
and snapdragons.
Because Of ner advanced age it
was doubtful whether Mrs. Truman
would ever walk again, but Gen.
Graham said she ''has so much fire
that she's just got to get we'll"
Mr.. Truman was SO pleased with
her condition he returned to Wash
ington the next Gay.
The President cheered his mother
with another visit March 8, stopping
off en- route to Mexico on his good
neighbor" visit. He telephoned the
Truman home from the Sacred
Cow" to say he was about to arrive
I'm a mile and a half from St.
Louis-straight up" he told his
sister.
Gen. Graham, consulting with
four other physicians, found Mrs.
Truman's recovery to be slow.
On Mothers day, Mr.. Truman
again climbed into his plane and
made a one-day round-trip visit to
Grandview and was told Mrs. Tru-

not plan to do any Government
business unless something urgent"
comes in from Washington.
Most of the important matters
were cleared away before leaving
Washington. the secretary added,
and Mr.. Truman has plenty OF
time" left-10 days-to Sign bills
passed on Congress closing day.
Mr.. Ross reported that no cabinet
officers or other Government ofdcials
were expected from Washington be-
cause there won't even be friends
at the funeral-just the family"
In recounting the Presidents hur-
ried fight. Mr.. Ross said the plane
left Washington at II 80 I'm. (EST
They had planned to take off earlier,
he explained, but the plane was held
up to permit the unifcation bill to
be rushed to the airport for the
Presidents signature. He signed it
inside the plane.
At 1926 pm. Mr.. Truman re-
ceived word of his mothers death.
Pilot Receives Message.
Capt. Charles M. Mills, pilot, re-
ceived the message over his head
phones after the Grandview secret
service men sent the information
through the Civil Aeronautics Range
Service.
The message read:
The Presidents mother died at
11:o9 am. (CST." (Dr. Greene
had set the time of death at 1880
Capt. Mills handed the message to
Mr.. Connolly, who in turn gave it
to Gen. Graham. The physician
took it to the Presidents stateroom
on the plane.
