Detection Week
Will Be Observed
Oct. 1910

The second annual diabetes
detection week will be observed
during the week of October 10
thru 16. Free tests for the disease
will be offered in many schools,
industries and medical labs in
Dayton. The observation, which is
to be held all over the country
is sponsored by the American Di-
abetes Association.
Diabetes is a disease which is
high on the list of killers. Many
persons have the disease without
realizing it. A simple test of sugar
in the urine will detect the dis
east. Treatment and cure is much
less discomforting then many of
theother widely prevalent dis
eases.
It is a wise step to take to
have ones self examined for dia-
betes. Even if a check was made
last year it should be repeated
now. Laborities offering free tests
are inthe Fidelity, Third Nation
at Bank and Harris buildings.
Also, many physicians are offer
ing the test free.

Population in u. S.
Reported
WASHINGTON amp

WASHINGTON (ANP)- Ac-
cording to Indian Bureau officials
here last week, the population of
the Indians in the United States
is on the increase = an increase
averaging about one percent a
year.
Estimating in round figures, the
bureau says there are about 425-
900 Indians on tribal rolls, which
compares to a low Of less than
100000 in 1880 and $4,000 at
the last official check in 1886.
This estimate does not include the
thousands of persons Of less than
quarter Indian blood who are not
on tribal rolls.
Descendants Of Indians are in
every state, but the government
maintains Indian agencies in only
Fl states.
Of the 200 tribes in the nation,
| 80 of them are in Oklahoma, which
| also has the largest Indian popul-
alton Of any state. It has about
100000. Arizona, with $4,000, is
second.
Fastest growing tribes are the
iNavajos, Hopis, and Papagos in
New Mexico and Arizona - the
rate of increase being about two
percent a year. Only six states
east Of the Mississippi have In
dian agencies. These are New
York, Florida, North Carolina
Wisconsin, Minnesota and Mississi
ppi.

opinion, please?"
Before we answer you, Miss
Crosby, might we say that one
Of the most important newspaper

Flo Mills funeral and it was in
deed a tremendous event far over
shadowing that Of Rudolph Val

was a funeral service equal to the

Aside from the fact that an es-

messed the procession, you must
bear in mind that newspapers and
organizations in many hundreds OF
our American cities, paid special
homage tothe unforgettable. .
"Bojangles." He was more than an
actor or dancer. Bill Robinson was
the finest sort of "interracial am

he brought colored and white

QUESTION: Do women have
the right to hold public office
according to Jewish tradition?
ANSWER: Not only tradition
but Jewish scripture bears proof
OF the presence Of women in pub
lie office. Moses sister, Miriam,
is known as a prophecies in her
own right who led the women of
Israel in song after the crossing
of the Red Sea. Deborah is list
ed as one of the Judges in the
prophetic writings Of the Bible.
The Talmud tells us that there
were seven women who were
prophets in Israel-Sarah, Mir
lam, Deborah, Hannah, Abigail,
Chuldah and Esther. These facts
prove that Jewish tradition re-
cognizes the right of women to
public office.

QUESTION: To what extent
did women participate in the
service of the Holy Temple in
Jerusalem?
ANSWER: The Talmud inter
prets the Biblical verse, Zone law
exists for all the multitude" as
including the rights of women.
The Mishnaic code mentions spe-
cial offerings brought by women.
There was a special section in the
Holy Temple known as ''Ezras
Nashim" reserved for women; a
special entrance for women is
mentioned in the Talmud. In
deed women had their own Spe-
cial privileges and parts in the
services.

QUESTION: Is it true that
Jewish religion exempts women
from certain laws Submitted by
r. R.. Cincinnati.)
ANSWER: Yes. Certain posi-
tive commandments, such as the
commandment of "Succoth" and
the wearing of fringes ("tzitzith')
and phylacteries are not required
of women. In general, a positive
commandment performed at a
certain time each day or GER
tain season each year, is usually
one from which women are ex-
empt.
