AS the numbers of Jews multiplied, and
as they became Americanized, they looked
more closely to their role as Jews and as
members of the American community.
Their activities famed out - on behalf of
Jewish education of higher religious edu-
cation, of aid to their own people here and
abroad, of community betterment. The or
ganizationS doing significant work on edu-
cational, welfare, cultural and social levels,
in addition to the programs centered around
synagogues and temples, runs into the hun
dreds.
AS individuals and through organiza-
tions, they were early alert to the dangers
of communist or fascist dictatorship and
to the bigotry which fathers them. Union
leaders such as David Dubinsky and Jacob
Potofsky have kept the huge ILGWU and
the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of
America completely free of Communists and
have led fights against their inroads any
where on the American scene. Jews in all
walks of life have demonstrated their hat
red of totalitarianiSm.
Whether early or late arrivals in this
country, American Jews have fulfilled
themselves as they have availed themselves
of the opportunities offered under freedom,
and undertaken the responsibilities pre-
sented by it.
Every community in the country where
there are Jewish citizens has its own roll
of honor, its own proud history, its own
stirring examples of how men have re-
spOnded to the challenges of freedom.
The Arizona post., 1954-10-01

dor was one of the early martyrs in the
fighting in the South. There were many,
many other Jews in this first fight for
American freedom.
AS the boundaries of the country wild
ened, the immigrants kept coming. Reac-
ton in Europe to the collapse of the ReVo-
lutions of 1848 in Germany and other Euro
pean countries brought a stream of intel
lectual Jewish immigrants cultivated men,
professionals and scholars who had devot-
ed their lives to freedom and now sought
political asylum in America.
The fact that American Jews were
sharply divided during the Civil War is in
itself an indication of their integration into
American life In 1880 there were about
100000 Jews in the u. S. In the next SO
years more than 100000 entered the coun-
try. When Russia unleashed savage reign
of terror on the already repreSsed and
segregated Jews, many fled, prosecuted,
poVerty-stricken immigrants seeking new
and free life.
Despite crushing working conditions
poverty and the ignorance of language and
customs, the new immigrants warmed to

their fellow-Americans, they enjoy unique
advantages and privileges.
Mans Opportunities Under Freedom
The theme and its implications will
thread the diverse nationwide celebrations
scheduled for the months between Septem-
ber 1854 and May 1855 A Tercentenary
Sabbath will be marked on Nov 27 bv Jew
lsh congregations in the U. S. On Thanks
giving Day, Nov. 25, a special ceremony
will be held in Touro Synagogue in New
port, R. J., the oldest existing synagoge
building in America and a national histori-
cal shrine. Lectures, meetings, dedications
throughout the U. S. will be held.
The freedoms we cherish TODAY were
not easily come by. From the days of first
settlement, the Jews were keenly attuned
to liberty. Centuries of oppression, a glow
ing spiritual heritage, and their own per-
sonal prosecutions, combined to give them
that amalgam of realism and idealism
which seems required for such a struggle.
The stories of the great Jewish patriots
OF the Revolution are by now familiar.
Haym Solomon, the Polish immigrant who
came to America as a young man and
soon became successful broker and COM
mission merchant, helped to raise money
for the Revolution. The Gratz brothers.
who conducted extensive trade between the
colonies and the farthest outposts, helped
keep the army in supplies. Isaac Franks
served under Washington Francis Saliva.

At just about this time, 300 years ago,
the first group of Jewish settlers, little
band of % pilgrims landed in this country
in what is now New York They came, as
had so many of the settlers before them,
and as were so many to come after them,
in search of freedom, the freedom to live
and to live meant to live as Jews.
Nobody dreamed and too few even to-
day know, how inextricably bound up with
the countrys rise to greatness over the
next three centuries the Jews in America
were to be-
In the early days they were in the fore
front of the fight for freedom. They have
since fought and died in every war in which
the United States has engaged. They
have built entire industries and helped de-
velop cities, great and small.
In every field of culture the halls of
fame echo with the names of Jewish Amer
leans - in science, in literature, drama,
music and the other arts. They have won
Nobel Prizes and Pulitzer Prizes. They
have healed the nations sick and helped
the needy. They have helped found and
supported great universities and Jewish
institutions of learning. They have sat in
legislatures and served as Supreme Court
Justices.
And throughout the three hundred years
of their participation in the growth of the
United States, they have struggled to gain
and uphold the freedoms which are the hall
mark of our democracy and the hope of
freedom-loving men all over. These things
they have done, bulwarked by their con-
victions, traditions and heritage as Jews,

Moved Trees Need
Frequent Drinks
To Stuy Vigorous

TranSplanted trees are likely
to be Super-thirsty for several
years. Summers drying winds
and scanty rainfall deplete their
vigor. This is true for both
deciduous trees and evergreenS
Best bet to keep transplants
f1ourishing is to soak them over
the entire root areas, generally
the spread of the branches, ac-
cording to tree experts.
Weekly intervals are usually
about right. Under extreme con-
ditions a five-day schedule is
better. Transplants even in the
third or fourth year in their new
locations may require this at
tention. That's because in many
cases roots are still underbal-
anced in relation to lush top
growth.
In addition to frequent water
ing during dry spells, feeding
with a tree food high in nitro
gen content will give an assist
to growing vigor. And healthy
trees are less likely to be dam
aged by insects and other trou-
bles that are often injurious to

flower. All plants need light
Some foliage plants require sc
little that they are well suited
to the planters used in many
modern homes today in place oi
the more conventional parti-
tions. 1t is wise to place out oil
direct sunlight plants that are
in bud and about ready to open.
If plants are sprayed. and most
plants require a good spraying
every two or three weeks to re-
move the dust and perhaps some
insect pests, be sure to dry
them off well before putting them
back in the strong light.
Use Of Woter, Fertilizer
Water should be at room tenn
perature for best results. Often
it is well to set the plant, in its
pot. of course, into a larger con-
tainer filled with water. Give
it enough time to soak up the
water. Often overnight is about
right.
When plants are bought at
the nursery they will not soon
require fertilizer. For such plants
two or three feelings a year will
probably be sufficient. Foliage
plants will need less.
8onemeal is always safe
fertilizer not because it is so
slow acting, but because it has
lime added it is not safe to use
with azaleas or other plants of
the heath family.
Remember to turn the plants
in your windows from time to
time to help them symmetrically.
Some Plonts to Choose
Here are a few suggestions
for plants which may interest
you. Perhaps some of them have
been out on the terrace or COW
cred porch all summer. There are
so many that might be suggested
that it is nearly impossible to
choose a few.
In foliage plants only may we
suggest the ferns, Dumb Cane
Dieffenbachia seguine), Crotons
(Codiacum variegatum). Norfolk
Island Pine (Araucaria excesla),
the Chinese Evergreen tAglaone-
ma modeStumD and the Jade
plant (crasSula arboresceno).
These plants will do well in
partial sun. Most of them are
old favorites of yours. Impatiens,
Fuchsia, strawberry geraniums
'saxifraga sarmentosa) Flower
ing Maple tAbutilon hybridum)
Dragon Flower (Anthurium) and
the ever popular Saintpaulia ion
antha.
And last of all there are the
ones who like full sun. There
are so many of these that it is
difficult to choose. Amaryllis
tHippeastrum). azaleas, begon-
las. shrimp plant CBeloperone
guttala), chrysanthemums, poin-
settias, geraniums coming to be
called pelargoniums, and last of
all, camellais is carefully chosen.

Dried Flowers Live Again;
New Book Tells Techniques

From grandmother's day and
even before, the drying of flowers
and foliage has come down to
us. Remember the funeral f1ow-
ers that were so carefully pre-
served? All those dull shades Of
brown?
It has taken the imagination
and the untiring efforts of Mrs.
Eleanor Bolton of Fairfax. Va.
to find methods whereby we may
have flowers for winter arrange
ments that have preserved not
only the color but also the form
and substance.
Mrs. Bolton became seriously
interested in dried plant material
when she prepared a program for
her own garden club back in
1852. She was SO successful that
her friends urged her to continue
her work. So as time went on
she developed the techniques
which she describes in her new
book, It'll Summer Comes

most too beautiful to be true.

This Is the time Of year when
the interest of the gardener and
the gardeners wife turns more
and more to the use of house
plants. many of which may be
brought in from their garden.
New house plants just seem
to be part of house cleaning
And the nice part is that apart
ment dwellers can find beautiful
and suitable plants to add to
their homes. too.
Before naming any specific
plants. most of which are ia
vorites of many years, perhaps
1t will be well to give some gen.
eral rules.
Let's begin with the pots. If
using old ones be sure to wash
them thoroughly before using
them. New pots should be
soaked for several hours before
use. Clay pots or glazed ones
are equally satisfactory The
common clay ones are more po-
rous and so allow more rapid
evaporation which may be large
ly overcome by placing them in
boxes filled with peat.
The glazed ones look better
but need extra care in provid-
ing good drainage, for some of
them have no outlet. Place
pebbles. gravel. or broken bits
of pot in the bottom and add
an inch or so of sphagnum moss.
Perhaps one-third of the pot
should be taken up by this drain
age material.
Just After New Growth Storts
The best time to put up plants
for inside bloom is just after
new growth has started. The
roots are then in best condition
to withstand shock
It is a common fault to use
too large pot. A pot that is
too large allows oVerWatering.
which may result in sour soil and
consequently sparce bloom. In
fact, amaryllis and some of the
lilies will not bloom unless they
are pot-bound.
Be sure to pack the soil firmly
but not so hard that no air can
enter the soil, nor even sufficient
water.
1t is to be hoped that most
plants have been moved in
during these past beautiful fall
days. Plants respond to the fine
fresh air which open windows
permit. OF course a blast of
cold air often causes plants to
drop their buds.
Most plants do we'll at so to
68 degrees, with 10 degrees lower
temperature at night. OF course
some plants must have lower
temperatures. For them a cooler
spot must be found or other
plants used instead.
