The Jews, a people Chosen to

in order to remain a living peo-
pie, put up restrictive barriers be-

the Jew has become the suffer

Rejection of Jesus as Christ the
Messiah was on the basis that the
Messiah was to usher in an era of
peace. The religion, of Paul did no
such thing. Instead, it revised the
religion of Jesus into one about
Jesus, cancelling the laws of the
Torah, and introducing ideas COM
pletely alienated from Jewish
thought, all to make the new reli
gion more palatable to the pagan
world of the time. The ability of
the Jews to Give good God-fear-

ton added to the lack of interest

Rabbi BernStein'S CredO

AT the very outset, religion for
the Jew is defined as a way of
life" for which the chief reward is
''the good life itself" The evolu-
ton of the Rabbi as the teacher of
his people, the position of the
Torah as the foundation of Juda-
ism-the staff of life, the central
prayer-the shema, and the year
round observances constitute the
basic elements of modern Judaic
practice. The observance of all
holidays, the Sabbath, Rosh Hash

nacles), Chanukah, Purim, and

WHAT THE JEWS BELIEVE
BY Rabbi Phillip S. Bernstein

The basic beliefs of the Jew of
today, especially the American
Jew, are expressed by Rabbi
Bernstein in his answer to the
question, what do Jews, here
and now, believer" Keeping in
mind the fact that this book was
written for the general public, an
audience including both Jew and
non-Jew, What The Jew Be-
ieves" is an overall discussion
in easily understandable terms of
why and what the American Jew
of today believes.

Prevent Grain
Contamination

"A RECENT NUMBER of this series
has pointed out the necessity for an
"all OUT campaign against contain
ination of stored grains. Rodent pei
lets and bird droppings are quite FREE
quently the main types of contain
ination. This issue offers some sug-
gestions for preventing such con-
tamination.
The chief offenders are house mice
and house rats. Where present about
premises of grain storage these pests
must be controlled. Although much
Rodent can be said for direct con-
Control troll measures such as
poisoning and trapping, this method
is generally of much less consequence
than a rigid program of sanitation
whereby sources of food and shelter
that attract rats and mice are re-
dqced or eliminated. The former
should be attempted only after a
concerted effort to effect the latter
has been made. Well planned and
properly executed control programs
can doubtless reduce numbers to a
minimum but as long as desirable
'shome sites" remain recurring infes-
tations can be expected.
The first step is to "clean up the
premises. All debris such as junk
and brush piles should be eliminated.
Materials such as lumber, firewood,

Some of the more common things
that can and should be done include:
Screen all basement and first floor
level windows with A-inch hard
ware cloth. This will exclude both
rats and mice. Close cracks, mis-
cellaneous holes, and holes where
pipes, wires, etc., pass through walls
and foundations with hardware cloth,
sheet metal or concrete. Repair sag
ging doors, broken windows, etc. In
other words, take the necessary
measures to exclude the pests. Free

As some Of your readers

further explanation, / beg that
you give me space to explain
that section Of the organic
act which %confers such (appar-

municipal council.
Section II, page 3 Of the or
ganic act begins By saying:
The respective municipal
councils shall be the sole
judges Of the elections, re-
turns and qualifications Of
their members.
This the municipal council
Of St. Croix interprets to
mean that whatever the coun-
ell does in a matter Of cleo

be challenged even by the
Executive or the judiciary,
muchless an Individual.

Georgia Tech S Fans
See Danger Of Upset
lin Alabama Game
0y the Asseeiated Press

ATLANTA, Nov. 1.-THE pessi-
mistic among Georgia Tech foot
ball fans wrestled today with the
horrible thought that the Engi-
neers' unbeaten string Of % games
might end Saturday with millions
of people watching.
Georgia Tech tangles with Ala
bama here in the televIsion game
of the week." and quite a few mil
lion folks across the Nation will
judge whether the Engineers de-
serve their new notch as Americas
No. 2 team in the Associated Press
poll.
Alabama, ranked 18th this week,
routed Tech. Sale. in 1850. No
body has beaten Tech since.
Hardeman May Be Out.
Some Tech fans profess to be-
+lieve an upset may be in the works
because two Of the teams best ball
carriers are hobbled by injuries.
Leon Hardeman, hot All-Amer-
lea candidate and the South's top
running back, sprained his ankle
early in the Army game last week.
It is extremely doubtful that he
will play. Hardeman has con-
tributed 704 Of the 1869 yards
Tech has gained on the ground
this season.
And Larry Ruffin, who was for
merly Techs: other starting half
back and raced 220 yards in four
games until he was hurt four
weeks ago. is definitely out Of the
contest.
With these weapons unavailable.
Tech must outscore menacing
Alabama offense, sparked by vet
eran Bobby NARROW and Sopho-
more Corly Tharp, which has
piled up 213 points against eight
foes this year. Only Tech, with
241. has a more impressive scoring
record in the touchdown-happy
Southeastern Conference.
Defense inexperienced.
Coach Bobby Dodd of Tech, al
ways candid about such matters,
admits he fears the Alabama scor-
ing punch, but believes his team
can take advantage of an mex
perienced Alabama defense.
The figures bear him out. 'Bama
opponents have racked up 119
points. On the other hand, the
gang tackling Tech defensive
platoon-one Of the country's best
has yielded only 40 points all
year and 13 in the last five games.
