The Illinois standard. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1948-1949, 1948-10-16

IN this district, no withdrawal
is involved.
O'Hara, a former lieuten-
ant governor of Illinois in the
Dunno administration, has a
generally liberal background in
politics, and was formerly a
commentator on the Chicago
Federation of Labor's radio sta
ton, VIGIL.
The endorsement came after a
meeting of Progressive forces in
the 4th. 5th, 9th, 18th and Sth
Wards last week voiced "strOng
preference" for 'Hara over
Vail of the unsavory record.
Vail, a Chicago manufacturer,
is a member of the House IN
American Committee.
In uniting opposition to
Vail" said George Cermak,
Cook County Progressive chair
man, 1--WE are pin-pointing one
of the most vindictive and
illiberal voting records in Con-
gresS.
1--WE are out to unseat this
Taft-Hartley supporter W h o
helped weaken rent control,
helped sabotage reciprocal trade,
helped exempt the railroads
from antitrust laws, opposed in
flation controls, and worked for
passage of the Mmdt-Nixon
police-state bill, which, if made
into law, would have suspended
the U. S. Constitution.
O'Hara told The Standard he
was Every happy" to receive the
PrOgressives' endOrs n t..
Asked if he believed the en-
dOrsement would give his cam
paign a boost, O'Hara said:
81 certainly do. 1 want the
support of all Progressive peO-
pie, and certainly think the en-
dOrsement will help in my cam
.paign."
X eping O'Hara's foreign
policy in mind-including his
support of the Marshall Plan
Progressives do not give 1909
endorsement to his platform.
But, Victor Ludwig, End dis
trict Progressive leader, stated
that O'Hara had voiced approval
of many key Progressive aims.
"Once again we demonstrate
unity behind sincere candidates
fl ON other parties" said George
Cermak. "All liberal voters in
the End District are now united
behind Barrett O'Hara, the sole
exception being the obstructive
candidacy of Socialist Maynard

ting hairs. Furthermore, the North
hand contains more than one honor
trick, SO a little leeway should be
permitted on that account.
There is large group of players
who operate under the belief that
X honor tricks are required to
make a positive response. To this
view I definitely do not subscribe.
But even If North did have 1h
honor tricks, a contract of seven
no-trump would not necessarily be
sound. Suppose, for example, North's
response had been made on the fol-
lowing holding:
AKQ642 2KJ10 o9642 80
This hand contains two honor
tricks, yet the odds are at least two
to one against fulfilling a grand
slam contract. It would require a
3-3 break in spades, which Is very
considerably against the odds.
After hearing the positive re-
sponse Of two spades, South should
not hurry matters, but should allow
space for further conversation.
Since the opening two-bid is forcing
to game, 1t is enough for him to bid
merely two no-trump at this point
and await partners further pleas
ure, intending ultimately to bid at
least six no-trump, or seven If part
ner indicates a solid spade suit or
club support, in which case q grand
slam IN clubs would be a bright
prospect.

I have frequently deplored the
fact that I have been unable to
measure degrees Of guilt. If I were
I could satisfy more Of my readers,
who from time to time write to seek
vindication or to find indictments
against their partners. A common
form of the query is who was more
to blame?" The above hand came
to me with such a request.
The letter obviously was written
by South, for he wished me to point
the finger of guilt at North for
responding with two spades, rather
than two no-trump. AS soon as
South heard this encouraging re-
Sponse he went straightway to seven
no-trump, which of course he was
unable to fulfill. He contended that
North should not have made a posi-
tive response, though he was willing
to accept part of the blame for his
undue aggreSsiveness.
Whether or not North should re-
spond positively depends on your
philosophy of the game. According
to my lights, North has a good hand
when partner makes a demand bid
and it is my policy to bid two
spades with that type of holding.
1t is my practice to show a rea-
sonably good five-card suit at the
same level if the hand contains a
full high-card trick. A reasonably
good five-card suit has been defined
as one headed by at least CD. If
the objection is raised on the

Hard Fight Expected
On Deferrine Science
Students From Draft

Selective~ Service system oflicials
today looked for hard fight on the
question, of draft deferment Of
science students.
Special committees of all affected
governmental agencies this week
will start studying far reaching de-
ferment plans proposed. yesterday
by the American Council on Edu-
cation and earlier by the Interde-
partmental Committee on Research
and Development. The committees
hope to recommend a program for
adoption next spring, Maj. Gen.
Lewis B. Hershey, Selective Service
director, announced.
But in view of the draft organiaa-
tions reluctance to approve long
range or blanket deferments, and
because more than 70 per cent of
men now being called are being
rejected In physical examinations,
ofncials declared the proposed
scientific deferments will have to
get the closest kind of study.
Reports from the 10 largest cities
showed today that about "a per cent
OF the "a and Is year old men have
failed to pass pre-induction exam
nations. District ofiicials said the
rate here has ranged from 65 to 10
per cent for men from 22 to rs.
Rates In Line With Estimates,
Those rates, 1t was explained, are
in line with previous estimates and
Will not prevent the District or the
county at large from meeting draft
quotas. The situation, however,
might be different a year from now
and conceiyahly could be affected
by a too general deferment of
youths studying scientific subjects
in colleges and schools, a Selective
Service System spokesman said.
OF course, there is no great rush
about getting a detailed approach
plan for scientific student defer
ments," he exeplained. Every one
in school now Is deferred anyway.
But it will be highly desirable to
have q concrete plan worked out
before the fall term begins next
year."
Possible difficulty in arriving at
a quick agreement was seen in a
suggestion by the American Council
on Education that college students
of science be given two year defer
ments. and longer periods If they
show special aptitude. :
"A fundamental difference may de-
velop on this point" Gen. Hershey
commented. rSelective Service has
the feeling that practically it must
start its selection earlier or face the
prospect Of missing out on military
needs"
Hershey Rejects Unfair Basis.
Gen. Hershey added that some
body has to 60 into the armed
forces, and it shouldn't be the per-
son who because of money or for
other, reasons can't 60 to college.
We might founder quickly If we pro-
coed on Chat basis"

THE JEWISH
QUIZ BOX
BY RABBI SAMUEL j. FOX
Copyright, 1913, Jewish
Telegraphic Agency, Inc.)

Saturday afternoon during the
summer months?
ANSWER: It is well-known that
the Sabbath was designated as
day of study and self-improve-
ment. Consequently every effort
was made to provide ways and
means to occupy the individual
with items that would lead him to
be a better person and lift him
spiritually. Observing. as science
admits, that the change in seasons
has an effect upon human behav-
ior, as does the particular nature
of the season itself, the Rabbis
sought to prescribe the proper cul-
tural tonic to fit the climactic
condition. Since it is commonly
known that the spring brings on
it's own type of Spring Fever"
and that the summer months add
a feeling of relaxation to the IN
dividual, which can sometimes
lead to laziness, the Rabbis sought
the proper remedy in terms of
literary stimuli. It was found
best to prescribe the study, or at
least the recitation of, the ethics
of the Fathers"
For one reason, their compare
lively eight" contents makes
pleasant reading during the un-
comfortably warm afternoons.
Their ethical preachings stimulate
the conscience of man into re-
awakening his moral responsible
ties. Those who indulge in the
study of the Ethics of the
Fathers" will find truth in these
claims.

ANSWER: "Pirke Avoth" is the

term designates the fact that the
tractate contains the principal Sc

"A V1C1OuSly COuCnSAOuo Wow
of anti-Semitism is sweeping
Germany" Max Newman, Deputy
Zone Director for HAS (Hebrew
Immigrant Aid Society in Mu-
mich, has warned in a special re-
port on Germany to Isaac l..
AsOfsky, the SOciety's Executive
Director, at 425 Lafayette Street,
New York.
AS result our offices are
flooded daily with inquiries and
poignant pleas for assistance in
getting Jews not only out of Ger
many, but also out of Europe"
The Jewish d. Prs in Germany,
reported Mr.. Newman, are panicky
with fear, not only of the Germans
but also of the possibility of pol
|itical upheaval. This fear is aug
mented by the demands in the
Bavarian Parliament and by the
German Ministers in the press that
ID. Prs charged with violations
must be tried in German courts
under German laws.
Recently 85 per cent of the
|tombstones in a Jewish cemetery
were overturned, disclosed Mr..
Newman. The report of the Ger
man police Investigators indicated
Ito them-that this was the work
of children under five years old.
The fact that it would have taken
the strength of an adult even to
move these heavy tombstones is
blandly disregarded by the in
Ivestigators, commented Mr.. New
man.
In Munich the windows of Jew
ish-OWned shops are smashed, and
signs are torn down. Jews are
disseminated against privately,
and terrOrized by the hostility of
the atmosphere, revealed the
HAS official.
Mr.. Newman cited the case of
Abraham Schwarzburg, a butcher,
the first Recommendation camp
victim to legally establish a bust
ness in Bavaria. The windows of
his butcher shop were smashed
by rocks, and the signs were torn
down and destroyed. To date these
windows have not been repaired.
The butcher states that he will
leave them in their present con-
dltion for while, so that all NAV
see how he has been treated. He
is anxious to emigrate from Ger
many, and is registered with HAS
for that purpose.
