Beef Herd Sire's
Qualities Are Varied

An ideal sire for a beef herd
is one with good body conforma-
ton and the ability to put on
fast and efficient gains. And
since these two qualities are in
dependently inherited, it is nee,
essary to select for each indie
pendently, according to Boyt T.
White, University of Maryland
Extension animal husbandman in
word received today at Mont
gomery County Agents office.
Whittle recently attended the
fourth annual field day held at
the Beef Cattle Research Station

operative research work between
the Virginia Polytechnic Institute
and the U. S. Department of Ag-
riculture is being done there to
study ways of using performance
test records in selecting beef cat

In order to find more effective
ways of improving quality and

each calf are taken at 14-day in,
tervals throughout the feeding
tests in order to determine
growth rates and efficiency of
feed utilization. Body measure
ments and type scores are taken
at the beginning and end of each
set of trials.
"A total of 50 bulls of the three
breeds were under test this
year." Whittle says. THE seven
bulls rated at the top of the group
were retained for use in the test
herds. The % bulls next to them
were offered for sale to private
cattle breeders. A group of %
were not allowed to go as breed
ers because they failed to make
proper gains or show the requir

The University of Maryland

that bulls in the Virginia test are

unit of nutrition among fish is
pink canned salmon.
In general, all varieties of fish
are economical sources of pro-

of the small amount of waste

To Back Diem
In Indo-China
By the Associated Press

The United States was re-
ported today to have decided to
continue its support of Premier
Ngo Dinh Diem's government in
southern Wet Nam despite in
creasing French opposition to
his policies.
Informed officials here re-
ported that decision in the face
of dispatches from Paris quoting
diplomats in the French capital
as saying this country has final
ly agreed Mr.. Diem must go.
Washington informants said
Gen. j. Lawton Collins. Presi-
dent Eisenhower's special am
bassador to Indo- China, was in
structed to make the United
States stand known before re-
turning here for consultations
on the future of the divided
country. Gen. Collins left Saigon
last night.
The Washington officials said
Secretary of State Dulles has

decided against French sugges-
tons that Mr.. Diem be replaced
by another anti-Communist fig
ure more acceptable to religious
sects now opposing his govern
ment.
They said Mr.. Dulles has de-
cided to back Mr.. Diem to the
hilt and to make this known to
squelch growing reports Mr..
Diem is to be dumped.
Many American officials pri-
vately are upset at what they
consider to be undercover French
efforts in Indo- China to Dust Mr..
Diem as ruler. The Frenchiview
is that Mr.. Diem is not ADEQUATE
to the task Of building up his
embattled country.

of Indo-China policies to pre-
pare for congressional hearings

East.
officials said one reason for
Mr.. Dulles determination to sup
port Mr.. Diem is that a sudden
switch now might make Con-
gress more reluctant to vote any
money to build up anti-Commu-
mist forces in Southern Wet Nam
and neighboring Laos and Cam

Dear Sir:
Through the kindness of Jew
ish friend read your articles in
'"The Southern Jewish Weekly"
and noted with interest yours and
Mayor Abe Abronovitz' reply to a
certain Mr.. Frank Kelley.
If America is pure Aryian it is
news to me as 1 always heard it
was the melting pot" of the
world, and it seems like the off
scourings Of every country on the
globe
Maybe Mr.. Kelley had never
heard cit is better to keep ones
mouth shut and be thought fool
than to open it and prove it"
An interesting verse in Scripture
is Acts 1925. All nations are of
one blood (proven by analysis
made by laboratory technicians at
blood banks)-no Negro blood,
nor Jewish nor Aryian and their
habitations were determined by
God and boundaries set. Africans
came from Africa, Germans from
Germany etc., and we certainly,
on the face Of Gods world, are a
mongrel race.
I love Israel and according to
my Interpretation, the Bible is a
Jewish book written by the Jews
to the Jews about Jew. Unto
them were committed the "oracles
of God" to the Jew first and also
the Gentle" Romans 10:1.

With great trepidation Harry
phoned his Uncle and was invited
to come to the Rabbinical abode.
Here is the gist of the conversa-
ton that followed:
But Uncle, I am married to a
non-Jewess."
eyes, I have heard. Bring your
wife along"
So the families met. Harry left
for his stage appearance, Lillian
stayed behind to enjoy the hos
pitality of the learned Rabbi and
his Titan Haired Rebellion. May
l digress for moment to note
that more sanity soul than the
Red Head never lived. She was
raising a family of eight bandits
and bandetti and through all the
attendant trials and tribulations,
plus her extra curricular activi-
ties, she carried her queenly
stature as Rebellion to her Rabbi,
with a wide and never-ceasing
smile. She was GREAT, she was
GRAND.
1t was a pleasant evening for
all concerned. Lillian and the
Rabbits wife were attracted to
each other from the first. No
words had to be spoken, but
there arose mother and daugh-
ter relationship that was beauti-
full to behold. Frequent CORE
spondence, each with the other,
ensued and condolences were
mutually exchanged. Two years
later Harry and Lillian were
again in the city in which their
Uncle lived. Lillian confided to
the Rebellion that her greatest
desire was to be accepted and rec

ognized by Harry's father, so that
Harry should be afforded the
happiness of filial associations.
Here is the gist of further con-
versation.
''Tante, I'd give anything to be-
come a Jewess and be married in
accordance with Jewish tradi-
ton"
''That is very wifely, and be-
cause it is so wifely, it is very
normal. Normal things, could and
do happen, that's why they are
normal. Why don't you tell this
to your Uncle?"
J The Rabbi was informed and
with the sage look that is pre-
served for the Wise, the Rabbi
made arrangements for a further
meeting the following evening.
Uncle and niece retired to the
Rabbits study and with great
solemnity the ritual of "conver-
sion" was enacted" There was
the recital and repetition of The
Golden Rule and then the Rabbits
admonition:
my child, adhere strictly to
the precept and example of this
great rule of conduct and by so
doing you can be a good Jewess,
good wife, a good daughter and
a good mother
After a lengthy pause, came
Lillian's query, What is next,
Uncle?"
Live the life which every mir
ror will reflect as The Good Life,
your happiness and the happiness
of those about you will be en-
HANGED thereby"
Two nights later Harry and
Lillian stood under the Chupah.
The Uncle declared them man and
wife and they were together for
thirty nine ensuing years, in all
the joys and happiness that two
devoted people can give to each
other.
The Rabbits work was not yet
completed. He made a trip east
and contacted his brother, the
piouS Chazan. After considerable
discussion there was agreement.
Harry and Lillian m d many
visits to the parental home and
differences seemed to have van
ished into thin air.
Harry? He is the late Harry
Jolson, brother of AL. The Cha
zan? He is the late Cantor Moishe
Ruebin Yoelson of Washington,
D. c. The Rabbinic Uncle? He was
my revered father, the late Rabbi
Julius Hess, brother of Cantor
Yoelson.
The Golden Rule is the greatest
of all rules of life and conduct. !
believe in it, it has been taught
to me, try to practice it.
It might possibly be that "The
Girl and her JIM could be guided
by the practice of such a rule of
conduct. Of course parents are
always so guided (?).
Have l bored you? If so, my
apologies.
