President S Should Be
Very Careful

/ wish to state that we are again
urging the presidents as a whole to
be very careful in taking in mem
bers. We have three certified death
certificates in our office for deceased
members reported to be paid off in
the June Moard and two Of them
are too old and the other one was in
bad health when he joined.
" e h We absolutely too many
deaths and the General President has
decided to clamp down on the presi-
dents and local lodges involved. We
are not giving the names of the pres
ldents involved in this issue of the
Echo, however, we are urging all
concerned to be more careful.

WHAT rs TINE CAUSE
F0R II?

l have been thinking very serious
ly over the longevity of the H. B.
A. if some Of our good presidents
continue to thrust bad risks on the
Association. We are having too
many presidents to give one age
when a member joins and that
same member can die in a years
time, and in some cases the ages
will vary any where from eight to
ten years.
l have on my desk now a claim
that has been published on the ten
tative death list who joined at one
age, stayed in the H. B. A. one year
and the age on the death certificate
is three years older, however, this
person is, according to information
received for an authoritive source,
fifteen years older than the age
given when he joined
Friends, this is going too far and
II those Of us who are imposing on
our local lodges in particular and
the entire Association in general are
not checked, we will soon have no
Association.
We should not forget that we are
going to reap Just what we SOW and
it could be that rcaping time is near
er than we think for.
We cannot help but become sus-
picious of these kinds OF transactions.
l honestly hate to believe that we
would have single president who
would. do a thing like this, even
though l have all Of the information
right before me.
When these mistakes are made,
somebody has to pay for them.
Therefore, it pays to be careful and
to use precaution.

OFFICIAL TRANSFER
CARDS

Occasionally we have members in
our local lodges VINO visa TO trans
fer to some oJaer .)dge5 Of 4. 3. A..
Most of our presidents and lodges
know that the only way that 9 mem
Der can transfer is by cStaining az
official transfer card. How ever,
we have som elocal presidents who
have not as yet learned how to
transfer members.
Throughout the years, some Of our
presidents have been writing to the
office to find out what members,
who have been unfinicial, will have
to pay in order to renew.
The office is always glad to fur
nish any information desired to the
local lodges through the local presi-
dents. However, a lot of the in
formation that the presidents write
to the office to obtain can be found
in our Bylaws and Constitution. l
am thinking that if we would read
our Constitution more often, a lot
of us would be more familiar with
the laws which govern our Ass0-
citation. -.,vss. -

MEMBERSHIP DRIVE

The membership drive is moving
along splendidly. We have on our
records the names Of presidents who
are adding members who have not
made an addition in a member Of
years. We wish to thank all CON
cerned for this wonderful increase
and especially do we wish to thank
the local presidents who head the
various local lodges.
In the last issue Of the Echo we
stated to you that fifty odd presi-
dents had increased their member
ship since the March Board and we
are now happy to state that sixty
odd presidents have joined in this
all-important increase.
It appears as if we will easily add
more than 200 members in this
drive.
We would like to stress the i'm
portance Of collecting the June as
sessment from these new members
added, as this will be the only way
to tell as to whether the drive has
been effective.

LEAFY VEGETABLES
PROTECT HEALTH

When plenty Of green leafy vege-
tables are on the table this fall and
winter, there will be fewer and less
severe colds.
Collards. cabbage, turnip greens,
and other winter vegetables build up
the body's resistance to colds, re-
minds Mary Hulsey, API extension
nutritionist. These are not only fine
foods, but are some Of the easiest to
grow in every home garden. Fam
lies should plan to have plenty of
them to use abundantly in planning
meals.

LET'S INCREASE OUR
MEMBERS

The Secretary has stated that
our membership is now about $500,
which means we ought to put on a
campaign for 300 safe, san and
sound members. I think it is time
for us to go about the 1000 mark in
membership. We don't want to in
crease the membership with weak
and unsafe members. Our presidents
seem to be more particular now a
bout the kind Of members that they
take in. Please do not give us any
sick and unhealthy members. Don't
give us members who are too old.

The economic gain to all concerned is

earned many times the cost of their

Possibly as many as 28,0O0,0 900 Americans

"Spot surveys have indicated that roughly

Nation), currently above 61,00O,0O0, have
significant physical impairments." With
some the difficulty is minor in character,
with many others it is a major considera-
ton. This weeks campaign is designed to
direct public attention to employment
needs and opportunities for the whole

otic, financial, social, cultural and spiritual
reasons. The slogan of the drive is: Hire

Comic Books

A six-year-old Pennsylvania boy has
shot and killed his twelve-year-o brother
in an argument over a comic book Ac-
cording to the police, the older boy wanted
to trade OF comic book that the younger
one had not had a chance to read. So
the six-year-old went to his fathers room,
got a 12-gauge shotgun, and killed his
brother.
Unfortunately, the news dispatches do
not reveal what type Of comic books this
youngster had been reading. But If the
six-year-old had been exposed to much Of
the blood and thunder trash that appears
in most of these denominations 1t is easy to
imagine where he got the idea for this
shotgun killing.
No charge has been placed against the
younger brother, since the law presumes
that child under seven is incapable OF
q criminal intent. This may be sound
theory, but it is hard to believe that the
mind of an impressionable child cannot be
warped by constant exposure to those in
citements to violence that are being palmed
of as comic books. And regardless Of
what prompted this six-year-old to kill
his brother, all parents would be well ad-
vised to take another look at the So
called comic books that their children
are reading.

Apothetic Voters

The registration slump in New York
City casts another shadow across the elec-
ton hopes of President Truman, since most
of the prospective voters who forfeited
their right to vote by failing to register
would normally have cast their ballots for
the Democratic ticket
Registration officials, taking into account
the population increase in the city, had
prepared to handle 4,0O0,0 900 registrations.
But the total taking the trouble to reg
lister was 1921, ,782-almost TOO, 900 short OF
what had been expected. There were
nearly 235, 900 more registrations in 1914,
although in that year the dislocations of
the war pulled the total down, and IN
1910, when the population Of the city was
about 100000 less than today, there were
actually 6S,67s more registrations.
This is bad news for the Democratic
strategists since it foreshadows the almost
certain loss of New York State and may
we'll be indicative of an apathy among the
Democratic voters which is not confined to
the City of New York. Some of the experts
in New York say that this stay-at-home
group is composed Of people who do not
want to vote for the President and who
have no enthusiasm for Governor Dewey
Hence, they simply would not take the
trouble to register. But since the group
Is made up for the most part of people
who came out to register and vote for
Franklin D. Roosevelt when he was run
ming, 1t is the Democrats and not the
Republicans who are hurt by the voting
slump.
How widespread this sentiment is will
not be known until after the election is
over. It is certain, however, that Mr..
Truman will be the victim Of similar
apathy, although arising from different
cause, in some of the Southern States.
In Virginia, for instance, there is extensive
disaffection among the Democrats. These
people in the main are not going to vote
for Governor Dewey. But neither will they
vote for the President They will either
stay at home, support Governor Thurmond,
or vote for State Democratic candidates
and not cast ballot for any presidential
candidate. In any one of these situations
Mr. Truman will be the loser.
1t Is regrettable that 30 many Americans
take the obligations of citizenship 20
lightly. Up in Boston yesterday some
$4,000 people turned out in the chill Of
early morning to bid for the $500 available
bleacher seats for the American League
playon. Two thousand Of them had camped
at the gates of the ball park all night
We would be better OF II a comparable
interest could be aroused on a national
scale in the infinitely more important con-
test between the candidates for the office
Of President of the United States.

Employing the Handicapped

This week has been set aside in the
calendar of the Federal Government for
campaign in behalf of securing regular
employment for citizens who are handi-
capped. The drive seeks careers, not
merely jobs, for men and women who have
been disabled in the World Wars; injured
in industry or in home, traffic, farm and
other kinds of accidents; hurt by illness or
born with afflictions. Experience shows
that practically all such people, when
sproperly prepared and placed, can pull
Their full weight wherever they are granted
the opportunity.
! Handicapped folk are quick to adjust
both physically and mentally to new con-
sditions. Driven as they are by special
determination to achieve, they generally
are equal-and sometimes are superior
to other workers not motivated by like
purpose. Perhaps nature affords them a
certain helpful compensation. The blind
often are sharp of hearing, the deaf keen
Of sight. Carefully collected records show
that the average handicapped individual
austifes the confidence Of the average

ItuIo-Greek Friendship Pact

The bilateral treaty about to be signed
between Italy and Greece is considered
by qualified observers to have far-reaching
significance. This is true Notwithstanding
the absence of military commitments.
Those were impracticable because Italy is
demilitarized under the terms of the exist
ing peace treaty, to say nothing of the
military weakness of Greece itself.
The Importance of the new diplomatic
development lies in the political economic
and psychological fields. Described as
primarily mutual pact of friendship, it
symbolizes the end of an antagonism be-
tween the Greek and italian governments
and peoples which became acute with
Mussolini's high-handed occupation of the
Greek island of Corfu a quarter century
ago, this being one of the new dictator's
first arrogant gestures of Fascist power
politics" Even before that, there had
been friction between Greeks and Italians,
who were keen economic competitors
basin, while Italian annexation OF the
Greek inhabited Dodecanese archipelago
after the Italo-Turkish war of 1911 was a
chronic sore spot with the Greeks. The
Italo- Greek quarrel reached its climax
with Mussolini's unprovoked invasion Of
Greece in 1910 and the subsequent occu-
patton of Greece by Axis forces.
1t speaks volumes for the far-sighted
common sense of Greek leadership that
these bitter memories should have been
so quickly overlaid by recognition of the
common interests which now bind the two
nations in face of mutual difficulties and
perils. What today endangers both coun-
tries is impending penetration of the East
ern Mediterranean by totalitarian COM
munism combined with the even older urge
of Pan-Slavic imperialism. With Anglo
American aid, Greece is valiantly fighting
Communistic Slavdom under the guise of
a rebellion by Greek Reds, backed by
Moscow's Balkan satellites who are Greece's
neighbors. Italy, militarily hobbled by the
peace treaty imposed by the victors in the
late war, nevertheless cements closer
understanding with Greece in other ways.
And this understanding logically consti-
tutes further link in the over all coalition
of Free Europe under the aegis of the
Marshall Plan. Another bulwark against
the aggressive policy of the Soviet bloc
Is thus being constructed.

Jewish New Yeur

The annual high holidays Of the Jews
trace back to ancient harvest observances.
In contrast to the Persians, the Greeks and
other Mediterranean peoples, the Hebrews
OF antiquity regarded the autumn as the
opening of the economic year. That seemed
logical to them since it represented the
season when the fruits of labor became
available for garnishing and distribution.
Rosh Hashonah in its original form was
an occasion of thanksgiving. It led to
penitence and atonement by a natural
sequence Of thought. Acknowledgment of
the Creators benefactions was rendered
tremendously, and continuance of His
blessings was sought in formal prayer in
the synagogues. The sounding of the
shofar was call to these rites. cit also
was q solemn summons to judgment of
good and evil.
Something of the same motivation still
characterizes the Jewish new year festival.
Rosh Hashonah has not been secularized.
The great trials through which millions Of
Hebrews have passed during this modern
"age of confusion" have had the effect OF
making each recurrent anniversary sad.
But the ordeal has not been empty OF
achievement. Rabbi Norman Gerstenfeld
referred to the harvest of the spirit when
he declared: '"The Jew who knows his past
knows that every emergency in Jewish
history has meant the onward emergence
of the Jewish soul" Out of the Exodus
came the tables of the law on Sinai. The
Exile produced the Old Testament portion
of the Bible with all its tremendous impact
upon the world. Now in the wake OF two
planetary wars arises the Independent
state of Israel.
Rosh Hashonah SOTO finds the Jews again
a nation. How much that means to multi
tudes of men and women proud OF their
descent from Abraham may not be appre-
ciated fully by their neighbors of other
families. But every individual who values
freedom and the elemental integrity OF his
own mind and heart must glimpse the
significance of the fulfillment of the dream
of "a publicly and legally assured home IN
Palestine" Much, of course, remains to be
done before that home can be what Theo-
dor Herzl visioned The strife, the s9led-
ding of blood and tears in the Holy Land
must stop. Jews of all schools OF thought
will hope for peace in the new year, and
all other peoples of goodwill should share
their aspiration.
