MICHIGAN Park Store

Sixty-one residents Of the Mich
igan Park area have taken to
District Court the long dispute
over a store proprietor being
allowed to sell bottled liquor in his
store at 1918 Allison street NE.
The residents yesterday filed
suit. through Attorney Nathan M.
Lubar. asking the court TO enjoin
the defendants permanently from
selling liquor at the Allison street
store. Included among the plain
tiffs are several trustees of the
Avondale Baptist Church, located
In the area.
The suit names two defendants.
One of them is Alex Browdy. who,
the suit says, has the liquor license
and rents the store property. The
other defendant is Stewart Bros,
1923 Twentieth street NV. fdenti-
fed as owner Of the property.
Lease Cancellation Asked.
Besides asking for an Injunction
to stop liquor sales at the store,
the suit also asks the court to
order cancellation of the lease OF
the store property between Stewart
Bros. and Mr.. Browdy.
| Meanwhile, the Alcoholic Bev-
erage Control Board, which
granted Mr.. Browdy the license to
sell liquor, has set May is as q
date to hear arguments by coun-
sci for the residents for a re-
hearing.
/ Many plaintiffs in the suit are
members of the Michigan Park
Citizens Association. which has
had several lively sessions over the
liquor selling issue. The associa-
ton has gone on record opposing
the license. The license was trans
ferred from another location to
permit Mr.. Browdy to sell. at the
Allison street store.

Biblical Oath

every Jewish man. woman and

He said that this statement
comes as a result of a nationwide
study of factors affecting the ad-
mission of high school seniors to
colleges which he completed
earlier this year under the aus
pices of the American Council on
Education. The study, he de-
clared. was based on interviews
with $4,000 high school seniors
across the country who had ap-
piled for admission to college,
and been followed up in Septem-
Der to find out what happened
to their applications.
"Our study" he said. leaves
little doubt that it is more diff
cult for a Jewish student to get
into the college he or she wants
to 90 to than is the case. for
example. with a Protestant or
Catholic Student. The Jewish
students has to try many more
colleges in order to get into one
and in many cases. he has to con-
tent himself with going to a To-
cal. city college instead OF going
away from home to an institu-
ton where he might receive a
better education and which prob
ably has more prestige.
"The simple facts are that out
of-town institutions in the nat
ion as a whole get II percent OF
their applications from Jews but
accord Jewish students only seven
percent of their places in the
freshman classes" he continued

In his petition, Judge Lewis in
dictated his reluctance to protest
against the abuse and misuse
even of radio speech because of
his deep attachment to freedom
of speech. Judge Lewis stated,
however, that he is convinced
that it is impossible to have "a
free contest of speech and ideas
with professional hate mongers
over the limited channels of radio
communication. In the first place,
one attempting to combat bigo-
try, hatred and falsehood over
the air is faced with the neces-

Judge Lewis also indicated that
he had no objection to Hams ap-

PLAIN TALK
BY Alfred Segal
NORRIS AND ABE AGAIN

have just heard another story
about Morris and Abe. They are
the couple of gentlemen who
carry the world around and
whose awful travail has been
reported in this column several
lines before this.
Their meager shoulders are al
ways full of pain on account of
the great load they carry and
when Morris meets Abe, or vice
versa, it's oy, oy, oy both ways.
Their burden is aggravated by
the fact that they are Jews. as
you may already have guessed.
When you are a Jew like Abe
and Morris. you not only carry
the world around. After you have
piled the whole world On your
shoulders you take on the spec
ial load of being a Jew.
That's Morris and Abe fol- you.
1t isn't enough that Morris and
Abe have the whole world to look
after; to take to their hearts the
bitter lamentations of China, to
plan for the Greeks, to worry
about the Jugo-slavs and even
in their sleep to indulge in night
mares about the U. S.
One night. not long ago. Abe.
who is in tailoring. had an awful
dream: In the United States
there was such a depression that
pants became scarce and practi-
callY unobtainable. The pants
industry had stopped and not one
tailor was at work and not a pair
OF pants had been made in
months. Abe's nightmare had to
do with his having to go down
town without any pants on.
OF such are the agonies of Abe
and Morris as bearers of all the
troubles of the earth. In their
leisure moments they pick up
their particular burden of being
Jewish and carried it heavily
around.
When they meet Abe always
starts the conversation by giving
out an 10Y" and Morris replies
OY". One day Morris let out a
wish that was blasphemous. you
might say. AS coollY like he was
ordering a dish of borsht. Morris
SAID: I wish I was born a goY."

horror. Morris, you know what
