Changes Suggested At
GrantsviIle Mine

Proposals to reduce fire dangers
and eliminate other substandard con-
ditions were outlined by a Federal
coal mine Inspector after Il reinspec-
ton of the Laurel Run Coal Com
pany's Stanton mine, 3la miles south
of Grantsville, according to Bureau
of Mines safety report issued today.
When reeXamined i'm February 10y
Inspector Harry Jones. the mine had
u employees and averaged 80 tons Of
coal daily.
Although commenting the use Of per-
MISSILE explosives, Inspector Jones
said they should be stored suitably on
the surface and fired electrically. To
minimize other ignition hazards. he
proposed that men wear permissible
electric cap lamps for portable Il
Elimination and refrain from smoking
in the mine. Adequate fire protection
and the elimination Of power-wire
contacts and shock dangers also were
advocated.
With the exception Of two working
places where the setting Of addition
al posts was suggested, the systematic
timbering plan was we'll followed
Jones noted. He advised provision for
ample cap pieces or wedges and re-
placement Of three broken crossbars
observed along the main haulageway.
Although ventilation was salts
factory and the use of underground
blower fan had been discontinued, the
Inspector said the unattended main
fan should be provided with a suitable
gauge and stoppage signal and he
recommended the use of incombustible
stoppings in air connections, posting
of abandoned workings, maintenance
of at least two permissible flame
safety lamps, and making Of preshift
fire boss examinations and weekly
air measurements and inspections foi
explosive gas and other hazards.
Other measures called for approved
surface storage of lubricants, adc-
quate first-aid supplies, display OF
signs to escapeways, and wearing OF
goggles for eye-hazardous work and
safety-toe footwear by three en-
ployees not doing so when exposed
to falling objects.

Lean Bacon Seen
AS Result of Swine
Breeding Studies

Do YOU like your bacon lean? Do
You sometimes find too much fat on
pork chops? All of this may change
in the future as new lines and breeds
of swiues are developed. Such de-
vclopments are being speeded be-
cause Of the present lard SURPRISES
and because of consumer demand for
lean meat.
Dr. W. W. Green of the University
of Maryland Animal Husbandry De-
patmcnt, reports that two general
methods are being used to develop the
new and better lines. They are %
establishment Of inbred lines of many
Of the important American breeds
and (2) cross breeding of various
American breeds with the meat type
Danish Landrace breed.
The inbred lines are used to study
the inheritance Of various character
istics which ale important to the pro-
Queer. They also help the research
workers study methods of breeding
which will help them develop efficient
lines quickly.
Many Of the studies, according to
DR.. Green, are being conducted at the
USDA Research Center at Beltsville.
Other studies are underway at the
Regional Swine Breeding Laboratory.
He reports that many new lines of
swine are being studied under actual
farm conditions. Their ultimate sue
cess will depend on their ability to
compete with the breeds which are
now popular and more important
their ability to cross well for the pro-
duction of cross bred market hogs.

Decisions by
Highest(ourt
(By Associated Press

In a unanimous opinion the Su-
preme Court has declared that
states may ban .picketing aimed at
compelling stores to hire Negro
clerks in the same proportion as
the stores white and Negro Gus
toners.
TIE High Court also ruled unani-
mousiy that states may ban picket
ing to compel employers to. force
workers to join union if the work
ers do not so wish.
The court refused to rule on
whether movie censorship is legal
The case involved the movie Cur
ley" The Memphis board OF censors
refused to approve the film because
it shows Negro and white children
playing together.
On another labor matter, the Su-
preme Court ruled out Michigan
state law to curb strikes-on the
ground that it conflicts with the
Taft Hartley Act. The Michigan
law barred strikes unless majority
of the workers involved voted to
walk out.

Cruelty Charge
Aired in Israel

TEL AVN, Sept. 25 (JTA)-
Ria Hines, 26-year-old Israel resi-
dent who is charged with having
beaten Jewish women prisoners at
the Oswiecim concentration camp
in 1914 and 1945, admitted in
magistrates court that she struck
a number of women prisoners but
denied charges of having collab-
grated with the Nazis.
She served as a supervisory
guard at the camp during that
period.
Malta Goldstein, the first of
five prosecution witnesses, testi-
fled that the Hines woman beat
a friend of hers, Vera Schwartz,
until the girl collapsed. She said
that she was also beaten by the
Hines woman, but not as severely.
Miss Goldstein charged that the
Hines woman's actions were not
warranted under the Circumstance
es because Nazi camp authorities
were seldom present when the
beatings took place. This state
ment was a direct refutation of
the defendants plea that she was
forced to be cruel under orders
from the Germans.
This is one of several cases in
volving a recent law which pro-
vides for the punishment of Nazis
or Nazi collaborators apprehended
on Israel soil.

The assembly was addressed by

treasurer of the Jewish Agency.
Messages were received from
President Chain Weizmann, Pre-
mier David Ben Gurion and 9TH

field of land development" and
calling for ''incessant, continued
efforts"

fact that cooperative and private

the new state. The ships of M,

VlSeQ.
Why, then, should the official
Jewish community be interested in
basketball for young people? Be-
cause basketball and other sports
and recreational activities, when
sponsored and operated by and for
the Jewish community, give the
ON m unity, another medium
through which to maintain effec-
tive contact with Jewish youth.
The sad truth is that we are in
danger of losing our youth. Even
those who do attend religious
schools leave us after confirma-
ton or Bar Mitzvah and we u.s.
ually do not see them again for
some time, if ever. The same dan
ger exists in the Christian COM
munity. Hence Y.M.C.A.'s, WV.
GAS, etc.
Among the many responsible
ties in the Jewish community, this
pressing necessity tends to be
overlooked. We try to superimpose
our own adult patterns on the
young people and assume that if
we have provided them with a
place for club meetings and occa-
sional dances, that such should
suffice. 1t does not suffice and
that is why we are losing them.
Great efforts have been made
in Phoenix which have resulted in
our two fine religious institutions.
The next matter on the communi-
ty agenda should be the provision
of these other recreational facili-
ties in the form of Jewish Com
munity Center.
WHILE WE ARE on the sub
ject of youth, it would be well to
devote some thought to the relig-
ious needs of young people who
no less than the adults are be-
coming religiously blase and So
phisticated in the worst sense.
Is it possible to organize junior
congregations and youth services
in the two snyagogues? / feel
that before any religious institu-
ton embarks on a program OF
youth activities, it should scruti-
nize it's primary role and evaluate
it religious services for young
people.
