FRIENDSHIP HOUSE
Cont. from Page 9

\
 Director General, in Chicago and an Outer Circle.
 The author, the directors of the various houses, the assist ant directors, the staff work CTS, and the volunteer, com prise the inner circle of the Friendship House. The Outer Circle was organized to teach the Word of God to all those wishing to know it-or to know more about it.
 The author-people still call her s'the baroness" though for more than three years she has been Mrs. Eddie Doherty- gives a lecture on Catholicism every Friday night, in the Holy Name Cathedral Library, 3 B. Chicago Ave-, when she is in town. In her absence, one of the directors takes over, usually Miss Ann Harrigan. For those who cannot attend, a monthly letter is written. There were so many requests for these letters that the mail ing list now tops 1000 names.
 All these things are told in the book. But there are many little sidelights, bits of drama and comedy and pathos, stories that will break your heart, to round out the mere pages of history.
 There are also one or two stories written by the staff workers. One of these, "No- vices in Harlem,' written as a pamphlet by Mary Jerdo, brought a very bitter little Iowa girl back into the Church she had deserted years ago, and led her into Friendship House in Chicago.
 The book doesn' t preach. It is full of action. It is full of

lowing biographical sketch is giv' en.
 Adolph Koldofsky, violinist, was born in London of Russian parents and at an early age showed 8 marked musical talent The violin was his chosen instrument and while still a young boy, he was ac- cepted as a pupil by the great Bel gian violinist and teacher, Ysaye who taught only three violinists each year. Later Koldofsky went to Czechoslavakia to be with an- other great teacher, Sevcik, whom Erica Morini proudly claims as her only teacher.
 While in Prague he became the concertmaster of the Smetana Sym phony Orchestra and was leader of the Sevcik String Quartet which toured Europe. In 1929 the young violinist conducted an orchestra on the first English commercial broad cast from Radio-Paris Coming to Canada, he appeared as soloist with orchestras in Montreal. Toronto and other Eastern Canada cities. His association as first violinist with the Hart House Quartet made the name of Koldofsky widely known in the United States as well as Canada. A yearning for the wide spaces of the West brought MT. Koldofsky with his wife to Vancouver. B. C., where he was immediately engaged as concert master and assistant conductor of the Vancouver Symphony Orches- tra.
 Heard often on Trans-Canada radio programs of CBC and as leader of the GER String Quar- tet and the Junior Symphony, MT. Koldofsky became an important musical personality on the West Coast.
 Gwendolyn Williams, pianist, who is appearing with MT. Koldofsky, is e sraouate of the Royal Conser- vatory, London. She is a Canadian by birth and was brought up in Toronto by adopted parents, who gave her every advantage to fur ther her pianistic talents.
 When Miss Williams is not ac- companying Mir Koldofsky, she tours with the Metropolitan Opera stars, Lotte Lehman, Mack Har- Tell, Raoul Jobin, Hertha Glaz and Mona Paulee.

 Two labor measures-one re- stricting union privilege, the other strongly urged by organized labor-went into the discard in succession when they failed to ob- tain the two-thirds necessary to receive consideration after the 56th day No appropriation or tax is carried in either bill. The two are: Senator Walkers Bill for Industrial Peace'-S. B. 93, and Rep. Anita Garnick's Equal Pay for Equal Work Act"-H. B. 81.
 The Garnick measure would put women on equal pay status with men. The Walker bill would re- quire unions to incorporate in order to engage in collective bargaining, put equal contract responsibility of unions and employers and re- quire arbitration preceding strikes or lockouts.

practically all the national and
central Jewish organizations in
this country have associated them
selves in the League for Safe
guarding the Fixity of the Sabbath
against possible encroachment by
calendar reform in 1929 when a
similar danger appeared on the
horizon.
We are confident that all intel
Iigent Jews will appreciate the
gravity of this question and will
give their whOlehearted support to
the League in it's efforts to combat
the blank day feature of the bill
now pending in the United States
Congress.

ing the first six months and ON a
different day the second half of
the year.
This situation can be clearly I'M
derstOOd if we assume that the
Dill now before Congress is adopt-
ed and becomes law. The new
calendar would come into effect
on Sunday, January 1, 1850. Dur
ing that year. the seventh day
Sabbath would, as at present, fall
on Saturday, the seventh day of
the week. The 364th day of the
year would be Saturday. The
following day, the last of the year,
would not be called Sunday but
would be celebrated as some sort
of a holiday.
The first day of 1851 would be
called Sunday. The result would
be that the seventh day, Sabbath,
would fall on Fridays during 1851,
on Thursdays during the first half
of 1852 "a leap year, and on
Wednesdays during the second
half of that year, because there
would be another nameless day in
the middle of the year.
The conscientious observer Of
the Sabbath on every day, regard
less of what it is called in the
new calendar, would be confronted
with q choice of violating his con-
science or suffering economic and
other hardships. This is an un-
considerable choice with which OBJ
servant religiOnists should not be
faced.
Jews, as well as other seventh
day Sabbath observers, should
take serious note of the resolution
now before Congress and should
prepare to oppose that part of it
which would result in so much
confusion and hardship and have
the effect Of weakening Sabbath
observance itself.
We believe also that fairminded
people of other faiths would not
approve of this feature of calendar
reform even though it may not
confront them with the same
conscientious difficulties.
Fortunately, in this one respect,
there is unity in Jewish life, since

RilI H. r. 1345, introduced by
Congressman Kee to reform the
calendar, as proposed by the World
calendar Association, is now pend
inc in Congress, and the reform
has been brought to the attention
of the Economic and Social Coun-
Gil of the UN.
The proposed calendar provides
for S54 days in the year but does
not regard the S65th day as one of
. the days of the week so as to make
possible the commencement of
each year on a Sunday and the
equalization of each of the four
quarters in the year.
What's wrong with this proposal
is that it will result in the inter-
ruption of the continuity of the
days of the week as it has existed
from time immemorial and will
make the seventh day Sabbath fall
on different. days of the week from
year to year. On leap years, the

The wire follows:

The passing of Mr.. Henry Ford
is a grievous loss not only to the
people of America but to all man.
kind. For Mr.. Ford was more
than builder of a great industrial
empire, he was more than a pio-
neer in an industry that changed
the transportation habits of the
world. First and foremost, Mr..
Ford was one of the worlds most
practical humanitarians, a human
itarian who did more than merely
contribute dollars to philanthropy.
Mr.. FOrd's lofty humanitarian
ism envisiOned social democracy
where every individual would re-
ceive full reward for his daily toll.
And that was only one manifesto
ton of his vision and humanity.
To Mr.. FOrd's everlasting credit it
should be added that in his man,
moth factories and offices he ex-
exemplified another great ideal. He
practiced the ideal proclaimed so
beautifully and elOquentIy in our
own Declaration of Independence
that all men are created free and
equal and in the image of their
Creator.
Men and women of all races and
religious beliefs found employment
in the Ford plants. In a time
when the world was torn asunder
by artificial racial differences and
religious antagonisms, Mr.. Ford
proclaimed that the foundations
for a more equitable world can be
made more secure by support of
our religious institutions, which
are fundamental in the moral life
of the community and tolerance
Of other races, other ideas and be-
Iiefs, while we hold fast to our
