at the one who asked the ques-
tons of him. 1t is a 21-year-old
girl, for no son of Isaac's has
lived through the Nazi terrors to
share this ceremony with him,
nor is this girl even remotely re-
lated to him by blood. Raya,
pretty Raya in her soft sweater
and birthday strand of pearls, is
daughter to Isaac and his wife
through the blood of others; the
rivers of blood drawn from the
Jews of Europe and so inter-
mingled that to be a survivor is
to be a brother.
Isaac and his wife, Esther,
were lucky enough to escape be-
fore the worst came for all the
Jews Of Europe. In their own
personal lives they had survived
the worst when they accepted
the news that of the two sons,
one had died in a Gestapo prison,
the other on a sunny street from
storm troopers bullet.
They could get to America. It
was possible in 1887. With the
advise and aid of the National
Co-ordinating Committee to Aid
Refugees they reached America
and settled in Milwaukee where
Isaac Klein had friends and
where there was an opportunity
! to start business.
The Kleins prospered. Nothing
notable financially, just well
enough to manage payments on
the small home, stock the larder
comfortably, welcome the n
friends, old and new, with warm
hospitality. But the grief of par
ents bereft would always be
for them the bitter herb. The

"This unleavened bread which
we eat, what does it mean? -"
"This bitter herb which we eat,
what does it mean? -
The tranquil voice of Isaac
Klein gave the traditional an
swers to the traditional four
questions at this roast comment
Grating the deliverance of the
Jews from Egyptian bondage.
The lighted candles in the can
delabra softened the strong face

g. And thou shalt relate to
thy son that day e" the voice

some general name. 1t was high
ly praised. It was the sheer
beauty of the thing which won
out.
In the aleph beth, Katz be-
lieves that Jewish artists have
a means to found a Jewish art,
which is entirely Jewish and
which will astonish the world.
He has already apparently i'm
pressed the great American
architect, Frank Lloyd Wright,
who has expressed himself en-
Enthusiastically about the idea.
Katz thinks we are at the
turning point in Jewish art. We
have made too much of men,
with boards, of memorials and
mogen davids. These all may be
very beautiful, but there is such
a thing as overriding a thing.
The letters of the Hebrew al
phabet furnish us the notes and
bars with which we may build
myriads of new symphonies of
painting constructions.

joy when one voice alone gives
question and reply:
Esther and Isaac Klein &C
copied a new voice in their
household in early 1941, when
13-year-old, orphaned Raya was
brought to America by the Co.
ordinating Committees success
sor, the National Refugee Serv-
ice. Somehow, someway, she had
been rescued, a bewildered,
frightened wrath living precar-
iously in the fields. Struggled out
of Germany, MRS arranged for
her, and thousands of other I'M
attached children, to live in this
country with foster parents.
When the Kleins read of the
MRS work, they had offered
their home to a child and Raya
was chosen because the Kleins
came from the same neighbor-
hood where Raya had been pick
ed up.
The first Seder for Raya was
strange and too exciting. Mem
cries buried by misery and the
grim task of survival for a child
alone came unbidden to the
feast. Memories of a Seder
solemn and joyful to a young
child who had known only safe
ty and love with her family
opened the door for the night
mare of family scattered and
gone. Raya could not taste the
bitter herb on this first Seder,
but there on the table before
them, it was a bond between the
girl and her foster parents.

All this snow that has piled up around us for the past two months began shifting position so fast that no road eouipment could possible keep up with it. t4ccording to the men who are trying their level best to keep roads open, four cats are putting in an average of 10 hours a day; one Sno-Go puts in an average Of 16.hours a day.; and .- two maintainers do as we'll. Nine men are putting in some mighty long hours operating this eQuipment-- and still Zone week later) only main roads hav3 been opened. i"ork so far has been directed toward keeping the School bus routes, milk routes, main road to Nasilla and other main highways open. In many cases this has meant cleaning the road every day as the snow has blown back as fast as it las been cleared out. Side roads are still untouched, but they report they hope to be able to yget at them soon. However, snow is still bloWing west of town and in |asilla,
 One of the biggest problems confront ing the Valley during times like this is that of getting the farmers mi lk to the Crea amery in Palmer. On Fri day of last week only Is shippers out of q possible 32 were able to deliver milk. On Saturday and Sun day 20 shippers delivered milk.
