NEW YORK, Feb. 8. - Elliott

tant and completely inaccurate" an
account by Radio Commentator
Fulton Lewis, jr., of an angry broad
casting studio episode last night in
which Mr.. Lewis said he was struck
by friend Of Mr.. Roosevelt,s.
The son of the late President did
not, however, give his own version
of the affair. None of the other
principals could be reached for COM
ment.
Mr.. Lewis said he received mild
blow on the jaw from Dick Harrity

The commentator said the alter

questioned him about a broadcast

corning the Texas State radio net

then a stockholder.
Mr.. Lewis said Mrs. Roosevelt, for

Lewis Recounts Argument.
Mr.. Lewis asserted he told her:
"You weren't in the picture at
that time. You weren't too close
to Elliott at that time"
Mr.. Lewis then quoted Mr.. Roose-
welt as asking:
"Are you insinuating that my
wife is q nar?"
The two men exchanged other
angry words, the commentator said,
and at this point Mr.. Harrity stepped
In and punched Mr.. Lewis lightly
on the jaw.
A guard separated them and Mr..
Lewis said apologies were exchanged
all around.

ANSWER: The origin of this
name is mentioned in the Bible
Genesis 1919 where God said
to Abraham, concerning his wife,
Sarah" shall her name be. From
all indications Sarah is the fem
mime forms Of the Hebrew term
"sar" which means a "ruler" or
prince. Thus "Sarah" may be
translated as ruler" or "prin-
cess" The fact that a name i'm
plying "rulership" was given to
the first Jewish woman should
tend to answer the unjust criti-
cism of those who claim that the
Jewish religion regards women
as subordinate beings devoid of
rights and privileges. Even the
first Jewish woman bore a name
implying a measure of rulership
and the first Jewish husband was
told to listen to his wife. Genesis
21:12).
QUESTION: What is the mean
ing and origin of the term
"benShen"?
ANSWER: The term "benshen"
is a Yiddish expression signifying
the act of saying grace after
meal. It is also used in the gen.
eral sense to indicate the action
of blessing. The saying of grace,
of course, is a means of blessing
Cod in thanks for his food. The
term "benshen" is hence used both
to indicate the blessing of man
and the offering of a benediction
to God. The term is believed to
have been etymologically derived
from the latin term "benedicere"
which means 'to say grace" The |
Latin term itself is made up of |
two words: "bene" meaning "well" |
and "dico" from the verb ITO say"
Thus the term as whole origin
ates literally in an expression
which simply means ITO say well" |
Cor good about something. 1t is |
interesting to note that the early
word for "bless" is
"bledsian" or "bleedsian" which is
quite similar to "benshen."

Santa Maria, which he COM
manded himself, the Pinta and
the Nina. The biggest Of these
ships, the Santa Maria, was only
100 tons, while the Pinta was
so and the Nina 40. There were
fewer than a hundred men al
together.
A stop of about a month was
made at the Canarles to repair
one of the ships and take on
water and other supplies. Then
the little fleet set forth into the
strange sea. 1t sailed due west
until it came into the path of
the northeast trade winds,
which blow steadily toward the
southwest. The wind filled the
sails of the little ships and they
sped onward through an I'm
known ocean.

Already he had become con-
WINGED tht India and the other
lands of the East could be
reached in the quickest way by
sailing west from Europe. Like
most educated people IF the
time, he knew that the earth
was round like a ball and not
flat like a plate. He did not
know how extremely big around
the ball was, however.
When Columbus made up his
mind to seek a westward route
to the East, he had to find
someone to give him money for
ships and men and supplies.
First he tried to interest the
city of Genoa but the Genoese
would have nothing to do with
such a wild scheme. He Their
tried the King of Portugal, who
was already sending out mer
and ships to explore the coas1
of Africa. The King was in
terested in the idea, but he
would not help Columbus tt
carry it out. Columbus wrote tt
the King of England, Henry VII
but Henry did not care to spene
the money either.
At last, Columbus appealed tt
King Ferdinand and Queen Isa
bella of Spain. They were inter
ested; but Spain was busy try
ing to drive the Moors out o
the country, and the plan Of Co
