vauels. just as the Puritans
brought to these shores ancient
and medieval Christian ideas and
values. These spiritual ingredients
have played an important part in
the life Of American JewrY.
The vast majority of American
Jewry today, if not themselves
immigrants, are descendants of
immigrants from Eastern Europe,
from Poland, Lithuania, Byelo-
russia, Ukraine and Rumania.
These immigrants, though they
came here in large numbers two
generations later than did the
German Jews, were much unlike
their German predecessors. They
were more Orthodox in their re-
ligious observances, they spoke a
medieval German dialect-Yid-
dish-which the German Jews
had by this time discarded, they
had hardly as yet entered into

the modern world of their Gentle
neighbors. AS they landed on
American shores around the turn
OF the century they were still
leading distinctly Jewish lives
and the pattern of their lives,
though affected here and there
by modern influences, was basic
ally medieval.
Many of us who are old enough
can still remember that life as it
was brought over here from Eur
ope by ourselves or by our par
ents or grandparents. It was
life which. while it may have
lacked the spirit of modern scien-
tific thinking and what many TO-
day are pleased to call civiliza-
ton. made up for this lack in
greater human warmth. in poetry.
in innate cultural attitudes. It re-
spected learning and spirituality
more than money and material
success.
Many of our Jewish immigrants
from Eastern Europe, deeply i'm
bued with Jewish religious feel
ing, made a brave attempt to
carry on this life in the New
World. But under the impact of
American conditions, particularly
as life developed in this country
after World War l, their attempt
did not on the whole succeed.
Today even the purely religious
life of Jews in the United States,
accommodating itself to the spirit
of the age and of the country, is
woefully lacking in depth and
vitality.
AS we now start our tercenten-
airy celebrations. as we begin our
fourth century of existence as
community on North American
soil. we Jews in the United States
should ponder our own history
and the history of JewrY as
whole and ask ourselves: Haven't
we gone too far in some ways?
Isn't it time for us to retrace our
steps and re-embrace some Jew
ish values-perhaps even some
Jewish customs and rituals-that
may serve our own spiritual we'll
being in this as in other countries?

Spring Cleanup
Prevents Animal Injuries

A good spring cleanup program
on your farm should be cOnsiderate
of animals, too, reminds George K.
Vapaa, county agent.
Many potential animal injuries
can be prevented if you will do the
following:
l. Repair or remodel high door
sills, short stalls with deep cutters
and low, loose fences that may
tmpt cattle to climb them. Many
udder and teat injuries are caused
this way.
2. DchOrn cattle to keep them
from injuring each other.
3. Block holes in your building
foundations to keep animals from
burrOwing under them.
4. Ground your wire fences every
200 fee ito keep animals from being
electrocuted while they are on pas
ture during summer storms.
5. Remove prOtruding nails frCm
buildings and pens. Nails can pune
ture an animals skin and let disease
in.
6. Keep machinery out of pas
lures and lots when not in use.
Z. Pick up old plOwshares and
points, cultivatOr shOvels and bro
ken machinery parts.
8. Clean up after finishing repair
iobs-nails, bits of wire and other
small objects left lying around can
easily get mixed in with feed or
picked up while grazing. Once in
side the animal they can puncture
internal organs. causing painful
injuries or even death.

DON'T BLAME WEATHER MAN IF FORECAST
TURNS OUT TO BE WRONG

Don't smirk superiority because your weatherman
makes mistake he Is dealing with the most erratic
thing creation He bases his conclusions on indications
but they turn out repeatedly to be misleading
Last Saturday for instance, it seemed that Key West
would have cloudy and rainy weather through Sunday
and were so told by our Weather Bureau But the
sun rose in clear sky Sunday and it continued clear
all day long.
And that easterly we heard about so much last
week. drenching parts of Cuba and the Bahamas which
appeared to be headed this way gave us little wind and
little more than trace of rain.
Sam Goldsmith meteorologist in charge of the
Weather Bureau in Key West keeps us as weatherwise
other community in the United States He is care
fu never to with certainty anything about the type
of weather will have the morrow. He tells of in
dicatons of what the weather the will be- and
sometimes they turn out to be right and sometimes
wrong. It is not physically impossible" as former
weather sad for storm to do just the opposite
OF what it seemingly would do
At this time of year. the weather, with which Key
Westers chiefly concerned is hurricanes Thus this
area has been fortunate Two hurricanes, Alice and
Barbara have been reported in the Texas and Louisiana
and both mild compared with the general run
of hurricanes NJ
The best thing for to do is to paraphrase George
Washngtons advice, I'm times of peace prepare for
war;, to 'In times of good weather prepare for hurr
canes Key Vests record in that regard has been
ceponaly good with only two lives lost in hurricanes
the "a the Weather Bureau and before it. the Army
Signal Corps have been operating in Key West.
Sam Goldsmith gave good advice recently when
he told forget about hurricanes until one is headed
this way and then do everything possible to protect self
and home in the that it strikes U.S. The fact that
many hurricane has been coming directly toward us and
changed its course should not make relax in exercising
caution for you tell what hurricane will do
Gee, it's hot" You should feel lucky you are liv-
ing in Key West The highest our temperature has been
this summer is SO, whereas in many cities in the United
States has often topped 100 and in few cities going
high 116.
The Key West citizen., 1954-08-03

American, I consider each person
is entitled to worship God in what.
Soever manner he may choose. II
isn't good for a man who holds
down a job dominated by politics
to attack the Christian Scientists
anymore than the Jews, the Catho-
lies, the Seventh Day Adventists,
etc. All of these are minority
groups. Breaking down the barrier
of religious freedom in one group
by government office holders is
eventually going to crumple the
rights Of all religions.
Wonder Drugs
How many of the wonder
drugs" of the past few years have
actually lived up to the claims Of
their commercially sponsored pro-
ducers? Chemical companies are
not much different than automo-
bile companies, motion picture dis
tributors, etc. They have to sell
their product in order to stay in
business. To make these sales -
they use high-powered advertising.
Not the kind of advertising that
you see in newspapers but the kind
that emanates from successful
Washington lobbyists.
Sulfa, penicillium, cortisone and
many other miracle producers
have proven to be fine but only
under the administration of a ply
Sician who considers the merits Of
individual cases.
I feel the same way about fluori-
dation.
Doctors are the ones to pres
cribe fluorides just as they do cod
liver oil - for the people who need
it. I'm against socialized medicine
and Pm against the Public Health
Service dipping its nose into af-
fairs which are the responsibility
of individuals apd their doctor.
We've had too much government
interference with our private lives
in the past few years. If it keeps
up, we'll have to ask some govern
ment agency for permission to
blow our noses. When are folks 60
ing to wake up to the fact that
individual initiative built these Uni
ted States?

US. Drafts New
Demand For
Compensation

WASHINGTON R-The United
States is reported drafting a new
demand that the Chinese Commu.
nists pay compensation for six
Americans killed and wounded by
Red fighter planes.
Diplomatic officials said today 4
vigorous second note - Red China
rejected the first one - would be
sent to the Peiping regime In the
next few days.
The American note will renew q
demand that all persons responsible
for the attack be punished and
that steps be taken to prevent any
such future shootings.
Three Americans were killed and
three others wounded when Com.
munist planes shot down a British
airliner last July % south of Red
held Hainan Island. Ten lives were
lost in all.
The State Department dismissed
as baseless yesterday a protest by
the Communist government Of Po-
and, made last Saturday, that
American planes had fired on two
Polish ships in the area of Hainan
Island. A department spokesman
said us. planes ''have not fired
on any ship in that area" and that
the Polish note would be formally
rejected.

This Rock
Of Ours
By Bill Glib

A retired chemist called this
column with regard to fluoridation
of water. He thought it would be of
interest to readers to know that
down in Australia, sheep herders
are concerned about the problem
1t seems that in certain geo.
graphical areas, fluoride - rang
ing from S 10 p. p. m. - is
found in underground waters. The
government has found it necessary
to map out these hazardous areas
for sheep raisers. Animals graz
ing on the grass develop LESSONS.
There is no indication that the
meat from such disease-ridden
sheep is not eatable but needless to
say, it isn't an appetizing thought
to sit down to a meal of this kind.
AS I said above, the gentleman
who called me is scientist. He
was neither 'for nor against" the
fluoridation of water. Pm taking
the liberty to guess from his con-
versation however, that he felt the
entire subject should be studied
with great care and deliberation -
and without emotion!
Technically, I lack the know
ledge and ability to write about
huorides. For instance, those in
favor of fluoridation maintain that
small amounts of fluoride - less
than I p. p. m. - produce no visi-
BILE evidence of immediate harm
to the consumer. They ignore COM
pletely all arguments as to whe-
ther there may be cumulative eff
fects." This can only be answered
by scientists.
There is the ethical angle to con.
slider, however
Placing fluoride in water is COM
pulsOry medication - all but the
most 'die-hard' supporters of the
process agree with this. And whe-
ther you like it or not, compulsory
medication doesn't reflect the Am
erican concept of life.
DR.. Floyd H. DeCamp arbitrari-
ly stated that anyone who opposed
fluoridatiOn would probably be a
'crack-pot.' Next he attacked a
minority religious group. AS an
