In most cases the family drifted
into Christianity thru the pro-
cess of elimination" The Jew
married a Christian; the children
were raised as Christians; and
they in turn married others of
their faith. Through all of this
the head of the family continued
to maintain at least a perfunctory
connection with Judaism and the
Temple; but upon his death the
link was irrevocably broken.
Even in our own day, this pro-
cess is approaching the inevitable
climax in five or six of the most
outstanding families in the South.
When the head of each of these
families passes on, all ties with
Judaism and the Jewish commu-
nifty will have come to an end.

This "slow" Characterization

one leading Protestant layman of

You'll find Christians in the
South with such names as
Herschberger, Mordecai, Salo-

u. 5. Attorney and FB|
Check on Two 0usted
From Costello Jury
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK. April 9.-The
United States attorneys Office and
the FBI are checking on two
jurors who were removed at the
last minute from the jury which
convicted Gambler Frank Costello
Of contempt of the Senat.
The investigation was an
nounced late yesterday by United
States Attorney Myles j. Lane
after Costello had been sentenced
to Is months and a $4,000 fine for
refusing to answer questions be-
fore the Senate Crime Commit
tee.
The ousted jurors were Mrs.
Helen Louise Mason. colored, q
housewife. who was jury foreman,
and Julius A. Fox. Their places
were taken by alternates before
deliberations began last Friday.
The two jurors allegedly con-
cealed from the court circum-
stances which might have preju-
diced them in reaching a decision.
Talks Ordered Disclosed.
Federal Judge Sylvester j. Ryan,
who had withheld details of the
Juror ousting on Friday. in
structed Mr.. Lane yesterday to
make public the record of con-
versations the judge held in
chambers.
The conversations were with
Mrs. Mason. Mr.. Fox and defense
and prosecution attorneys.
According to the record, Mrs.
Mason was removed from the jury
because Of her activity in the
Democratic Club headed by Rob-
ert Blake, a rebel leader in Tam
many Hall (the Manhattan Dem
ocratic organization). Mr.. Blake
bolted his party to support Ru-
dolph HALEY. former chief coun-
sci to the Kefauver committee,
in his successful run for city
council president last November.
Mr.. HALEY was the Liberal Party
candidate.
The record showed that Mr..
Fox was removed because Of two
civil actions for treble damages
filed by the Office of Price Ad-
ministration against him and his
textile company for alleged price
ceiling violations. Mr.. Lane was
the Government attorney in both
cases. One case was dismissed
last year and one is pending.
Withheld Certain Facts.
Judge Ryan said it was up to
Mr.. Lane to see If Mrs. Mason
and Mr.. Fox should be cited for
contempt Of court. The Judge
said they had failed to give proper
answers to questions that would
have disclosed the facts before
they were accepted as jurors.
The transcript Of the confer
ences in the judges chambers
also related that:
Defense Council Kenneth M.
Spence last Thursday gave Judge
Ryan an anonymous letter.
signed Ward Leader"-which
said the sender had reached
some one out Of town" who in
turn was to reach Mrs. Mason"
The letter said Everything has
been worked out" and It instructed
Mr.. Spence to put $3.50 in a sealed
envelope and give it to a Negro
messenger who delivered the letter.
This man supposedly knew moth
ing Of the letters contents.
Judge Ryan. after talking with
Mrs. Mason before court opened
Friday, was convinced she knew
nothing Of such a scheme. The
judge considered the letter the
work Of a crank. Mrs. Mason was
instructed to retain her seat as a
juror.
Linked to Blake.
But Mr.. Spence later produced
q paper linking Mrs. Mason with
the Blake club activities. The
judge then notified Mrs. Mason

she was disqualified for not re-
vealing her political activity.
Mr.. Spence had told the Judge
he did not believe Mrs. Mason
could be an impartial juror in
the case because of Mr.. Blaikie's
announced bitter enmity to Cos
tello."
Costello. 81, remained free to-
day in $4,000 bail. A hearing will
be held tomorrow to determine
whether the bail should be con-
tinued pending outcome of an
appeal from the conviction and
