NOVEMBER ELECTION

Although the general election of local officials less
than three weeks away interest at minimum seldom
do you hear it mentioned.
There few contests in Noble county, but there is
no indication there will be heavy vote.
But there state issues and special local issues that
have Importance for the electors They afford
ignore them.
CALDWELL well the other school district electors
will be voting for the renewal of the three mill levy Very
little has been said about these issues but each should
ceive overwhelming majority by the electors.
Beaver and Dexter City will be voting for renewal
the school levy. Enoch township Fulda

In Caldwell, it is only three.
Of the three statewide issues the attracting widest

Military Assistance Program, it
seems to me to be an argument
against it. With Russia having the
atomic bomb we can hardly expect
the small countries of Western
Europe to stand up against Russia,
which means that the arms we give
them may well be found in Russian
hands and used against US.
However, the Military Assist
ance Program has been adopted,
and it is now important that most
of it be directed towards installa-
tions in Europe which will help
detect Russian airplane attack and
serve as an auxiliary to the de-
fense of the United States against
such attack.
The bomb emphasizes above
everything else the necessity of
building up an all-pOwerful air
force. The only possible defense
is a complete control of the air.
If there is ever third world
war. it will be won by the nation
who can most completely dOmi-
nate the air.
WE should build up our air
w force again to 70 groups and
direct all our present activities to-
wards air warfare. We won the
second World War when we had
secured complete domination of the
air over Japan and Germany.
Mastery of the air must be the aim
of our entire military policy. OBJ
viously we must not relax the
scientific development in the manu-
facture of atomic bombs.

atomic warfare, small contribu.

Obviously our defense must be
closely integrated with that of
Canada, and no doubt we shall
need some bases in other parts of
the world.
For a long time l have urged
that we send an ambassador to
Spain and extend loans to her
through the Export-Import Bank.
To please the Socialist govern
ments of Europe our State Depart
ment is refusing to speak to Gen.

moral position that he has gov
ernment where freedom is sup
pressed. Hardly any argument
could be more foolish. We are

believe that any people would de-

it or not they must fear the tre-
mendous destruction to their own

would probably result.

CAPITAL
With BEN HAYES

Columbus - I'd better keep
you up-to-date on the Noble
County Club. We had big meet
ing the other night. 1t lasted for
three hours. Lots of talk about
Noble county. We also got few
things done.
The big dinner will be held on
Saturday night, Nov. 19 in the
Southern Hotel ballroom. The
Noble County Mixer, it will be
called. Well have big chicken
dinner with the program devoted
entirely to our down-state home.
Everyone is invited, especially
people who still live in Noble
county. We have some ex-Noble
countlanS up here who haven't
been home in a coon's age, and
they would like to hear how the
hills look.
You can make your reserva-
tions now by writing to Gerald
Hughes, 276 S. Third street, Co.
lumbus.
Gerald is the temporary pres
ident. He's from Three Forks.
and still on the east side of 40.
The title of vice president or
weep" went to Harry Tarleton.
He's a big wheel with the New
York Central Railroad here.
Probably he's best known in
Noble county as Grams oldest
boy.
Harry enjoyed the planning
meeting, several time exclaim-
ing Heaven to Katie!" We all
had a good time. Abraham w.
Fogle, 81, was the hit of the eve
ming. But I'm getting off the
track.
Until permanent officers can
be elected at the dinner, June
Waller will handle the secretary
treasurer's duties. She is Gerald
Hughes secretary.
We're going to have fun at the
dinner. There's going to be a
quiz program. How many COW
cred bridges in Noble county to-
day"?-questions like that. Ed
House, principal of Indianola
Junior high school, will be quiz
master. The planning meeting
was held at his school. Another
proposed question was about the
college established at Sharon
before the Civil War.
Mr.. Fogle turned to Mrs. Mar
garet Treadway, 362 E. Hudson
street, and asked: do you re.

THE JEWISH
QUIZ BOX
BY RABBI SAMUEL J. FOX
Copyright, 1949, Jewish Tele-
graphic Agency, Inc.)

QUESTION: Why is Jewish
tradition opposed to cremation
and the storage of dead bodies in
,,,ausoleun vaults?
ANSWER: Jewish tradition in
sists upon burying the corpse in
the ground. The Bible is the or
ioinal source for this insistence.
In the Pentateuch it is ordered
that the body of the deceased ''be
hurled" Genesis declared that
"Dust thou art and to dust shalt
tbou return" Cremation is thus
not "a return to dust" nor is it a
form of burial. Storage in MAUI
soleum vaults is also not ire
turn to dust"
Perhaps from the Biblical COM
mand ordering the covering of

the blood of certain animals and
fowls with dust one can gain
more logic for this tradition. The
rabbiS insist that this blood be
covered with a sort of dust in
which things can grow or that
can aid in the growth of living
things, or at least that it have an
association with such a dust.
QUESTION: From whence does
the river Jordan get its name?
ANSWER: There seems to be
two opinions about the origin of
the name Jordan" and even
these two can be fused into one.
It seems to be a point of univer-
sal agreement among scholars
that the name Jordan" contains
the Hebrew root ''yorod" which
means ito descend" The fact
t,lat the Jordan is a rapid stream
which has fall of three thous-
and feet from it's source to it's
mouth could very we'll have been
the reason for the name Jordan. )"
According to the Talmud, "Jor-
dan" is made up of two Hebrew
words 'yorod" and dan" The
first means to descend and the
second is well-known Biblical
city, from where the Jordan orig
mates. The name would thus
mean "the river which descends
from the city of Dan"
