age was caused early tadsy
but only the bus driver was
injured when a huge trailer
truck collided with . Grey
hound bus a mile and a half
north of Tavernier, the State
Highway Patrol reported to-
day.
Patrolman r. C. Young reported
that the truck, laden with $500 gal
Ions of diesel oil was travelling

The entrance to the new Jewish
cemetery near Fitzgerald.
has used the synagogue rooms
when it was needed.
The congregation and its syna-
gogue has become a part of the
community. The men who built
it have proven that progressive
Judaism can become a force for
good in the life of the town, and
it's people.
When Kruger retires from bust
ness his Department store will be
taken over by Belks. This is a
name as well known in Georgia as
Sears and Roebuck is throughout
the country. Its presence in a
town places it on the map. But
if Belks is now helping the fu-
ture of Fitzgerald, it must be
remembered that it is men like
Abe Kruger, Jewish immigrant,
who with their genius for mer-
chandising, and their devoted pa
triotism have pioneered in the
hinterlands to bring prosperity to
the small communities and its
people.

RICE GROWING

HERZLIAH, = QSD = Expert
ments in the growing of lake rice
have recently been undertaken in
the Herzliah area and it has been
found that the rice plant becomes
acclimatized here exceptionally
well and ripens in 70 days after
sowing as compared with 100 days
usually taken for ripening in the

this type of rice in carp-breeding

When Abe Kruger of Fitzger-

paper had this to say about him:
''It is possible to blot out the

GERMAN PARLIAMENTARY
COMMITTEE APPROVES
GENOCIDE BILL

BONN, (JTA) = The Bundle
stag Legal Committee has en-
dorsed, with certain changes in
definition and phraseology, a bill
ratifying the United Nations
Genocide Convention. This brings
West Germany a step closer to-
ward the outlawing of the crime
originated by Germany.
The present bill, which pro-
claims West Germany's adherence
to the convention and incorpo-
rates its provisions into the Ger
man Penal Code, received the
parliament's unanimous consent
in first reading last January.
Thereafter, it was referred to the
Legal Committee for further
study. The revised bill now goes
to the Bundestag for a second and
third reading, which is expected
some time in the Summer. No
open opposition to its adoption is
anticipated.

A Pioneer is Honored

ent prosperity. However, while
Kruger has given up his business
activities he has not said farewell
to public life, and in the Jewish
community still remains active
and vocal.
Kruger was one of the found
ers of the synagogue in Fitzger-
aid. He was the power behind its
initial organization, and three
years ago instituted the opening
of the Jewish cemetery. His inter
est in Judaism is not merely or
ganizational. He has a profound
love for things Jewish, and a deep
appreciation of religious values.
Prior to the time when his con-
gregation secured the services of
Rabbi Nathan Kohen as spiritual
leader, it was Kruger who served
as Cantor for the services.
It was under the leadership of
the Fitzgerald pioneer that the
present synagogue was purchased
from the Northern Methodist
Church in 1941.
The town of Fitzgerald was
settled by Northern soldiers who
had fought in the Civil War, and
who had elected to remain in the
South. These men had chosen to
remain aloof from the Southern
Methodists for almost half a CEN
fury, but when in the forties the
two branches of the church were
ready to merge, the wooden build
ing where the Northern branch
worshipped was placed for sale.
For the sum of $25,000.00 the
building was purchased by the
Fitzgerald and Ocilla Jewish fam
lilies, and in the next ten years
over fifty thousand dollars was
subscribed to brick in the walls,
add school annex, air-condition
the building, and further beautify
the site.
On the entrance hall wall hangs
the dedication plaque naming
those men who through their
organized group as B'nai Birth
members served as the first board
of directors Of the congregation.
There are inscribed the names of
Philip Halperin, Abe Kruger,
Dick Kaminsky, I. Silverstein, A.
S. Harris and Alec Kruger.
During the decade of its exist
ence the congregation has been
cited nationally for its friendship
with the Christian population.
Several years ago when the Bap-
fist Church was under repair the
congregation invited its members
to meet and use the synagogue
for educational and church pur-
poses. The public school system
