Brotherhood Award to Be Given
To Joseph D. Koufmon 7uesdoy
Testimonial to Honor
Him for Years of
D. c. Civic Work.
By GEORGE Kennedy

Joseph d. kaufman will re-
ceive the Brotherhood Award oi
the District Chapter of the Ma
tional Conference Of Christians
and Jews at a $25-a-plate testi-
monial dinner Tuesday at the
| tShoreham Hotel.
Fifteen years ago Mr.. Kaufman
was one Of the most active Of
those businessmen dedicated to
service" without whom no large
community could operate. He was
even better known as Radio Joe''
through the advertising Of his
mems clothing store facing Penn
sylvania avenue in the 1000 block
|of D street NV.
Then q heart ailment forced him
to curtail his activity at his store,
which accounted for only about
half his income, and cut down. on
his appearances at civic rallies.
Activity Slackened.
"I had to change from beating
the drum and rafting the tam
BOURNE" he said recently in his
Woodley Park Towers apartment.
Much of my activity today is at
committee and board meetings"
He looked tan and At; just back
from a Caribbean cruise. He had
been practically sent out OF town
when his friends feared that his
successful efforts in reviving the
Belasco Theater as a service can
teen might cause a relapse.
Mr.. kaufman. who is flye-feet-
five inches tall and weighs 100. is
Of an active nature. He is quick
to Jump from his chair to pass a
cigarette or open refreshments.
He has a way Of answering ques-
tionS with quotes: Service is the
rent we pay for room on earth. f"
or humanity is my interest-con-
fiict my destiny"
Not All "Cakes and Ale"
He says: Brother, if you think
it's all cakes and ale in getting
things done that should be done
you're mistaken. You run into
some real fundamental differ
ences."
His optimism and tendency to
metaphor both bob up when he
discusses the Christian-Jewish re-
lations in this country.
"The way to get tanned" he
says, sis to get out in the sun.
More people are getting out on
the human relations beaches.
II think that education, not
only in the schools but in industry
where it is realized that bigotry
can be one Of the most expensive
elements Of operation-I think
that education is having some
success in teaching people to get
along with those of q different
background"
He cited Henry Ford IFS in
terest in becoming chairman Of
the National Conference of Chris

Started with Round Table.
The local chapter Of the Ma
tional Conference of Christians
and jews started about 1892 with

the late Rt. Rev. James E. Free
man, Bishop of washington, the
Rev. Wilfred Parsons of Catholic
University. the late Rabbi Abram
Simon, Joseph RsS Tumuity. Will
son Compton who was then with
George Washington University
and Mr.. kaufman.
Mr.. Kaufman was a founder
Of the Community Chest in 1929.
He remembers an occasion when
the State Department drive had
halted at SO per cent of quota.
He was called in to give the SUI
pervisors a pep talk. They must
have thought it pretty good be-
cause he was called back to ad-
dress the entire personnel Of the
department.

the platform. Mr.. kaufman real

Morton Luchs of Shannon &

made up to look like old portraits, .
Mr.. Kaufman said. ''They are
probably from photographs"
The original Joseph kaufman,
a baker. came here from Germany
in 1849. His son, Max, eventually
opened clothing store at Eighth
and ! streets Sc. in the Navy
Yard section, where he sold Sum
day clothes to working men. Max
had a younger brother, Dave, in
the store with him. In 1897 Dave
opened a store Of his own at
zoos D street NV. It prospered.
He sent his son. Joseph, to Penn
sylvania Military Academy at
Chester, Pa.
Recalls Titanic Sinking.
The Kaufman children were
interested in social settlement
work. He remembers coming home
from the Southwest Community
House (now Barney House) with
his sister Juanita in 1912 the
night the extras were out on the
sinking Of the Titanic. The
Juanita kaufman Nye Council
house at $50 Eighth street S.W. is
named after his sister.
Joseph Kaufman took over the
store after World War I. He'd
much rather talk about social
service than about the store; he
just isn't interested in it any
more. He only enters the show
about twice a year. although he
is still president. It is run by his
general manager, Oscar A. Dodak.
But he was an enlivening in
f1uence on local trade when he
was a merchant. He is credited
with originating the first sing

It was with some reluctance
that he consented to play on the

was in the 3Os when he had a

deposit Of tinfoil to send chill

PLAYING BY EAR

(From Mrs. L. A. L., Mt. RainierJ
In reply to a recent inquiry
about learning piano or guitar
playing by ear. I would strongly
advise avoiding any such course.
II the children have a musical ear,
let them develop it correctly under
the guidance of a carefully chosen
teacher. Naturally, it lis difficult
to learn to read music, but that
is the only way to get a sound
musical background. studied the
piano for IL years, and my teach
ers definitely discouraged playing
by ear as they said there is no
quicker way to acquire bad "tech-
nique." There is no short cut to
real skill in any art; even the
greatest musicians had to learn
the hard way.
