public activities of the commu-
nifty. (The distant sounds of bat
tie raised by our defenders seems
unreal.)
True. not everybody in our
town loves Jews. but true there
are a lot of people who don't like
Catholics either. True. we Jews
of our town don't get into the
best clubs of the Gentiles but as
sensible people we know that So
cial inequality is the least to
worry about. Fact is that nobody.
except the very rich. enjoys COM
plete social equality. even be-
tween non-Jews: not every non
Jew-in fact. the exclusive few
can get into every non-Jewish
club. And whisper this: Even
among Jews there are social dis
examinations. as in the Jewish
country clubs of our town.
So it is among Jews in cities
and towns all around the coun-
try; they feel no real need of
being defended. They know that
there always will be anti-Semites
as long as there are Jews, just as
there always will be haters of
Catholics, of Irish, of Italians and
what have you.
Only the other day there came
TO me by mail a booklet that was
all about the atom bomb and the
Jews. II attempted TO wrap all
Of us-including Einstein-in one
bundle as enemies of the Repub-
lie bent on stealing atom secrets.
At first l felt angrily hot. This
outrage! This SANDER on all of us
decent citizens! Why do the mails
permit this filth to be carried?
Then I cooled off. Well, I said
this sort of thing is old stuff, as
old as the Christian era, as old
as the blood accusation on ac-
count of which 40 Jews once were
put to the flames-back in the
18th century in France. This is
as old as the foul garbage that
testers in human minds.
So. instead of running TO a de-
tense agency with the book I
mailed it to DR.. Jacob Marcus. di-
rector of American Jewish Ar
chives of the Hebrew Union Col
lege. I suggested he file il in the
archives as an interesting speci-
men of ALTERATION as il relates to
the historic hating of Jews.
Lately DR.. Abraham A. Neu-
man, president of Dropsie College
of Philadelphia has said: ''More

self is the fear it inspires. It is a
disservice to American Jewry to
play upon its fears rather than
upo1 its spiritual strength. It is
distortion of American history
and an insult to our country to
exaggerate the influence of
crackpots and bigots as if they
were truly representative of the
American people,"

here after a long term in exile
will be struck by the changes
which have taken place in the
Hub. There now are tall, mas
sive buildings that can claim
brotherhood with Gotham's giant
structures. The John Hancock,
New England Mutual, the Tele-
phone Company's, and nearing
completion, the Federal Reserve
Bank, are a few of the creations
demonstrating that Boston is ele-
gantly going up in the air. The
tan population first shifted from
the West End to the South End
and then to Upper RoXbury, the
Hubs so-called sugar Hill" In
that area is now located the Old
Charles Street Church congrega-
ton in a stately stone edifice.
Gone, completely gone, is Youngs S
Hotel where George Belts and
his aniable associates were min
listers Of dining. Gone, too, IS
Berkeley Hall, once the scene of
many concerts, receptions and
dansants. There still remains on
Huntington avenue the old Legion
of Honor Hall which was the
choice haven for select parties in
the Gay Nineties". A major al
teration is in process in Chester
Square" the area of Massachu-
sets avenue between fremont
street and Shawmut avenue. The
once beautiful park, with its
large trees, hungry pigeons, and
picturesque fountains, has been
totally obliterated. The avenue
proper now runs straight through
the center Of the space which
the park had occupied. The ffocks
Of pigeons have vanished - gone
to other camping grounds, no
body knows where. A lone

to the city, he looked about for
a church home. He found it in
the Columbus Avenue A. M. E.
Zion Church. Being especially
interested in the musical part
of the service he joined the choir
and shortly became its chorister,
which position he held most sue
cessfully for many years. Then,
another one of his interests is the
knights of Pythias. And here he
again shines. If you have never
seen DR.. w. o. Taylor conduct a
session of the K. of P. you have
missed a good deal. Such pre-
cision, such perfect knowledge of
the ritual, such thorough famili-
arity with parliamentary pro-
cedurel 1t is really a delight to
witness him conduct. And in
all his presiding of meetings and
concerts, he brings the same ex-
actness and the same easy con-
troll. AS a physician, as a church,
man, as a fraternity man - it is
easily seen that the honored
| guest of last Sunday is notable
and has won the affection of his
compeers and friends by the in
nate qualities that he possesses.
And finally, there is left one other
phase of the good doctors per-
sonality - his quality of friend
ship. He is the ideal friend,
faithful, helpful, untiring in his
effort to succor his friend. The
writer is reminded of one special
| occasion when this quality was
exemplifed. It was when the
late William Monroe Trotter re-
ceived a hard blow on his right
leg when baseball hit him dur
ing a game on the William E. Car
ter playground on Columbus ave.
The blow knocked him down and
he had to be assisted home, a
short distance away. Then he
I undertook to treat the injury
himself but the wound grew
worse. He caled in DR.. Taylor.
; It was here that the latter'S
great, beneficent friendship was
, in full flower. He thought OF
nothing but to succor his friend

Fight on Proposed Cemetery
Heads for State Appeals Court

Attorneys for property owners
near the Wilkins Estate on the

carry to the Maryland Court of
Appeals their fight against a ceme-
terry On the tract.
The attorneys, James r. and
Lee Miller. made this clear yester-
day after Judge Charles w. Wood
ward in Montgomery County Cir
tcuit Court dismissed their appeal
from a County Council decision
granting permit for the ceme-
terry.
Jurisdiction Lacking.
Judge Woodward agreed with ].
Hodge Smith and Walter w. Daw-
son, representing the North Wash
fngton Cemetery Association, Inc,
that the court lacks jurisdiction
to hear an appeal in such a case.
Mr.. Smith commended the law
under which the appeal was filed
involves only road decisions by
county officials.
Meanwhile, r. Duncan Clark,
attorney for Mrs. Frances Miller,
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1952-01-19

who also owns property adjacent
to the Wilkins tract. said he will
| file suit next week in Circuit Court
to prohibit the North Washington
firm from establishing a cemetery
there.
Mr.. Clark said he will claim q
cemetery would damage adjacent
property values and endanger the
public health.
Application Granted.
Similar arguments had been
made in the suit filed by the law
firm of Miller and Miller.
The County Council granted the
application for a cemetery permit
last November by a 4 to 3 vote,
after holding two public hearings.
Originally. the. cemetery firm
sought permission to establish on
the middle 100 acres of the 409
acre tract, which Is bounded by
IViers Mill road, Randolph road,
Rockville pike and Halpine road.
Later, the size was reduced to
about 80 acres, and finally to n
acres.
