happiness is to be found in mod

long glow of love is better than

We children always got our new

mund Freud, in his analysis OF
wit and humor, tells one of the
Jewish jokes about Rosh Hashan-
ah-how two Jews look at each
other at the bath house and sigh:
"Well, another year has passed"
Even the poorest Jew would go
to the bath house to prepare for
Rosh Hashanah.
Of course, everyone goes to the
synagogue and there is a lot of
praying to do on Rosh Hashanah,
but it is pleasant to meet people
and, besides, you spend so much
of your time around the synogog-

is like attending a convention.

prayer, attain forgiveness Of their
sins against God, but they could
obtain forgiveness for their sins
against man and the happiness
that results from it only by mu-

Archbishop O'Boyle said the
asnwer to the challenge on the

Catholic colleges "have an obliga-
tion to place their intelligence in
the service of Christ"

5 Face Fraud Charges
In Board Investigation
OF Job|ess Payments

Five unemployment compensation
fraud cases will come up for trial
or sentence in Municipal Court this
month as a result of Investigations
by the District Unemployment Com
pensation Board.
c. A. Wharton, director of the
board, said the number of cases is
the largest presented in single
month and that most of the alleged
frauds were committed within the
last six months.
Police Uncover Case.
One of the cases was uncovered
with the help of police, who found
uncashed checks both for wages and
unemployment compensation in the
possession of a man being investi-
gated on another charge. Warrants
in the other four cases were issued
when Investigators trailed persons to
Jobs, after they had picked up job
less pay checks.
The "spot check" investigations,
Mr. Wharton said, have enabled the
board to prepare for trial cases
which in the past would not have
been uncovered for years. The only
previous means was to check jobless
pay claims against wage lists sub
mitted quarterly by employers.
100000 Covered Here.
The compensation act covers about !
100000 persons in the city, and about !
$500 claims a week are filed here,
the official said.
The most difficult claims to check.
attorneys at the board said, are
from persons who work as domestic |
servants in private homes. AS their
employers file no wage lists, they ex-
planned, personal investigation is
the only means of uncovering pos
sible fraud.
Violation of the act carries q
maximum penalty Of 500 and 90
days in Jail for each count. A sep
arate charge can be filed for every
week in which the fraud was COM
mitted.
