talk, during which most of the admiraI's fine
brain was on dfferential calculus, Madeleine
fired the first gun. Il loved your sweet little
note, she said.
Mote? Oh, yes" He remembered writing

outside the club this morning. to hand over
Madeleine'S request that the admiral prevent

chauffeur had produced pen and paper for a
reply, and the admiral had Scribbled, I'm be
there at g. Charles" He hadn't meant the
note to be particularly sweet.
Madeleine left the matter of the note for
moment. You've met Lieutenant Morley
haven't you, Charles?"
Barely" The admiral remembered little
more about Morley than the gossip that had
connected Morley's name with Madeleine's
Hes been ordered to sea-" Madeleine said.
I'D like you to get the orders cancelled
The admiral was shocked. You make il
sound like fixing parking ticket!'
What would happen if you recommended
cancellation"
THAT would depend | certainly have no
intention Of finding out" The admiral reached
for his hat.
Madeleine seemed not very surprised.
Il loved your sweet little note," she repeated.
''Eh?" The admiral settled back, conscious
of pricklng feeling in his scalp. He hadn't felt
those warning prickleS since his submarine days.
Madeleine took the slip of paper from her
bosom and read it aloud: I'll be there at ;,
darling. Charles
The admiral could feel his own eyebrows riS-
ing. Somebody's added the darling Is this
joke?"
He reached for the note, but Madeleine put it
back inside the print blouse and faxed an elabo-
rate, catlike yawn. Its all written with the
same pen, Charles wonder if it would amuse
your wife"
''She wouldn't believe it for minute" the
admiral said. Not actually believe, he was sure.
And yet. Helen's only fault was that funny,
insecure feeling about her own attractiveneSS.
And she thought Madeleine was so ALFRED
beautiful.
Madeleine sat quite still across from him,
small smile on her face. She waited, and the
admiral didn't know what to do.
The Navy wanted Morley at sea, and that was
that. But it wouldn't do to let Helen be hurt
She could be hurt by something like this, silly as
it seemed, and he knew it. Madeleine must
know it, too, since she obviously appreciated the
value of the paper as a weapon.
Madeleine seemed to be reading his mind. :!

Before painting a new wall or
re-painting an old one with to-
days popular alkyd fiat odorless
enamels, a coat of vinyl plastic
base sealer, such as sealer-
coater, is recommended.
This combined sealer and un.
dercoater, designed for any type
wall or ceiling, dries in 30 min
utes, bridges fine cracks and,
most important, prevents the
topcoat from developing dull
spots over very porous areas.
Sealer-coater dries so fast it
makes two coat day room

PLAIN TALK.
CONTINUED from Page II

"The Academy on High" (Yeshi-
bah shell maaloh) where learned
Jews could continue studying the
Torah after the yisgadal veyiska-
dash had been said for them at
the graveside. The ancient rabbis
said: "The disciples of the wise
have no rest even in the world
to-come."
Rabbi Minda quoted the cele-
brated French artist Corot who
"rebelled against the thought of
Heaven as a place of eternal slu1n-
ber." He said: I hope with all my
heart there will be painting in
Heaven And il was the noted
Shakespearean actor Sir Henry
Irving who said: I believe in i'm
mortality but if am permitted
TO express any preference. I shall
ask to be allowed TO play Shake
speare's dramas for all eternity. I"
The Southern Jewish weekly., 1956-07-13
T.. I'll.


You see, as Rabbi Minda under
stands it, there's no meaning or
comfort in staying asleep eternal
ly Says he: whatever valid
ity the idea of immortality posses
ses rests on the faith that the
values of human personality are
too precious to be destroyed in a
universe that has been designed
to conserve even the smallest
atom of matter and unit of
energy. Somehow God of JUS
tice and love who made it possible
for man, the child of dust, to
yearn and aspire for truth, beauty
and goodness, will not permit the
drama of life to end in the black
out of the tomb.
IF Immortality means anything.
it signifies the opportunity not
only to conserve these values of
personality but TO enhance and
develop them. beyond the level of
earthly limitations Bereaved
families might find healing in the
thought that their dead live in the
sense that they once knew them
to live that earthly careers
cut down in the heat of mondays
sun have not terminated in the
sleep of dusk. but rather that they
march on to the fulfillment Of
those goals and detectives which
constitute the real and noblest in
their earthly lives and personali-
ties"
Well, what Rabbi Minda has
said starts this Mr.. Segal toward
asking: But, really, what's the
matter with sleeping forever? :.
lust to be at peace after the hard
hot day? not to know thing
more about the agonized living
The Southern Jewish weekly., 1956-07-13

that goes on all around? not
pain left in the heart?
Segal likes TO recall an opera
tion he had three years ago: he
slept dreamless under it through
four hours. He asks himself. Sup
pose I had kept on sleeping
dreamless through all the hours
and the days and the years to
come one and one Wouldn't
that have been heavenly reward
enough after everything?
But he woke up after the four
hours, and as soon as his mind
was clear enough he picked up a
newspaper, and there The
front page was full of all the trou-
bles of mankind, alas! after
the four perfect, untroubled, pain
less hours of sleep!
Yet. mind you. Segal wasn't
unhappy TO find himself alive
again. There were those seven
grandchildren of his. He must
stay alive to see them grow up .
maybe TO help them keep the twig
straight to know them in lat
ter life as fine people in the world
who by their good way of living
may confer bit of Immortality
on Segal. their ancestor.
That accomplished, Segal would
be content to 60 his way and sleep
forever. And wouldn't that be
heaven enough? Reward enough?
Would a good God wish more toll
and trouble upon a man after He's
thankfully through with all that?
Rather, doesn't the good God let
man sleep as one who has done
as good a job as he knew how
and is leaving behind bit of him
self in whatever good he has done
and in his part of the heaven on
earth he may have helped to
build, and in the worthy descend
ants he had produced. immortal
ity is in all that immortality
with sleep isn't it good?
Well. that's it. as Segal sees it.
Still. he can't be sure. He is just
another guy cropping in the mYs-
terry. He thanks Rabbi Minda for
his eloquent answer.

Top Priority For USR 2l

the road construction activity which would
result should prove to be boom over
period of several years.
The state highway department has urged
that the 100 mile stretch roughly paralleling
USR 81, be included on the system to con-
meet the heavy industrial area of northeast
Ohio with the industrial area of southeastern
Ohio and northwestern. West Virginia.
Just notice any Friday evening of any
week the terrific amount of traffic on this
highway from Canton into West Virginia and
the Importance of this section speaks for
itself.
West Virginia realizes its Importance
and they are already seeking an extension
from Marietta to Charleston, connecting with
the West Virginia turnpike.
The department pointed out to the
federal government that the expected busi-
ness boom in northern Ohio from the St.
Lawrence seaway might make its traffic
estimate too small. There is the boom
already underway in neighboring Monroe
county and some of it is bound to be felt in
Noble county and its main artery of traffic.
At the present time, there is no major
throughway running north and south
through southeastern Ohio.
The journal. (Caldwell, Ohio) 1934-1961, 1956-09-27

The state highway department has
estimated that the proposed Canton-Cald-
well-Marietta expressway would carry a
volume of traffic amounting to about 10000
vehicles daily by 1875.
The department made its estimate in
asking the Federal Bureau of Public Roads
to include the proposed route on the inter-
state system and thereby eligible for 80
percent federal aid in construction costs
The federal government has 1000 miles
to allocate across the entire nation in addition
to the 10000 miles now on the interstate
system and competition for the extra mile
age will be keen.
Although the state department has given
it top priority in this state with the govern
ment, there is no assurance at this date that
the latter will feel so keenly about it when
the additional 1000 miles is allocated.
However, every community and more
especially the USR 81 association, must keep
busy and use every angle possible to impress
on the government the Importance of this
highway from Cleveland to Florida.
Every community bordering on USR q
will benefit from Canton to Marietta and
not the least of these will be Caldwell It is
true that the highway may be relocated but

Scientists Make Great
Contribution

All of us are aware that
scientific research has been
responsible to a large degree
for the great industrial expan-
sion that this nation has ex-
perienced and for our ever
bettering standard of living.
But l wonder how many of us
realize just what big factor it
really has been in making
America so outstandingly pros
porous among the nations of
the world?
Research has been a power
full force in launching new
industries and in the success
and growth of thousands of
established companies and in
dustries. Illustrating just how
important business executives
consider it is to the continued
prosperity and expansion of in
dustry, it is estimated that in
1856, approximately $5.5 bill
lion will be spent by industry
in scientific research.
AS result of scientific re-
search, millions of Americans
are now gainfully employed
helping to produce things that
were unknown a few years
ago. AS cases in point:
A recent statement made by
the Proctor and Gamble Com
pany emphasized the fact that
in 1855 it was using 105 chemi-
Gals that were not in use ten
years previously.
The president of General
Electric Company recently re-
ported that one out of three
workers employed by that
company is engaged in making
new products that GE did not
make in 1889.
Radio Corporations presi-
dent is on record to the effect
that 80 percent of its more than
81 billion in sales in 1855, was
in products and services which
did not exist or were not COM
mercially developed just ten
years ago.
The experiences of company
after company could be cited
to prove that from scientific
research has come an ever-il-
creasing flow of new products
to provide new jobs and to
create ever-rising living stand

WASHINGTON
REP. JOHN E. HENDERSON
General Accounting Office

Outside Government circles,
the functions of the General Ac-
counting Office are often not
too well understood. This impor-
tant arm of the Congress was
created in 1921 and performs an
important daily mission of audit
ing all financial transactions Of
the Federal Government. The
GAO also provides the basis for
the settlement of accounts and
determines how well the depart
ments and agencies are managing
their financial affairs. To accom-
plish this service, GAO has the
power to disallow claims and
prevent the expenditure of pub
lie funds. It reports its finding
on the many broad Investigations
it conducts directly to the Con-
gress as we'll as to the agency
affected.
Under the direction of the
Comptroller General of the Unit
ed States who is appointed by the
President to serve a term of Is
years, it is the General Account
ing Office which completes the
cycle of control which Congress
exercises over Federal funds.
This process starts with the ap-
preparation Of money by the Con-
gress and is completed as GAO
examines every expenditure to
assure that it conforms to the
expressed intention of the legis-
Iation which authorized the
money to be spent.
This cycle clearly carries out
the intention of our Constitution
which places such a large
measure of our fiscal control in
the hands of the Congress COM

The campaign to raise $35O.00 as Noble
county's share of the $1,50O.0O which it is
costing to build memorial to John Gray,
last surviving veteran in Ohio, is tagging
and to date only $1,000 has been received
by the committee.
Constructed and sponsored by the Ohio
Monument Builders Association, Inc, this
organization is meeting practically all the
initial cost in constructing and erecting of
the memorial at the state roadside park on
USR 21 between Caldwell and Belle Valley.
The contribution of $4,000 was asked
from this county in order that they might
play some part in paying tribute to Ohio's
last survivor of the Revolutionary war, who
lies buried in McElroy cemetery, at Hirams-
burg. ...
Several organizations and a number of
individuals have contributed to this fund
which only last week reached $187O0.

ards. This makes it imperative
that there must come steadily
to scientific research larger
numbers of trained recruits to
carry on both the basic and
practical research activities
which will help this country
maintain it's place at the head
of the parade of nations, and
with each passing year to make
more and more things available
to more and more of our peo-
pie.
Professional scientists COM
mand above average salaries
and thus maintain for them
selves a high standard of living
which creates an additional de-
mand for goods and services.
Their requirements for hous-
ing, automobiles and the vari-
Gus niceties of suburban living
have contributed much toward
the trend to decentralization
from many of our badly-over-
crowded metropolitan centers.
The nations outstanding uni
versities are contributing much
to keeping up the supply of
scientific researchers; private
corporations are doing their
bit; industrial research labora-
tories are on the job; and to the
efforts of these agencies credit
must also be given to govern
ment, which is also rendering
yeoman service in this field.
Many of the individual
states have departments de-
voted to economic development
involving research. There are
also numerous local industrial
foundations and commissions
active in developing scientific
researchers. Commercial banks
and other financial institutions
also have fingers in the pie.
Many of these agencies work
together, as for example, a
number of universities cooper
ate with industry both on
and off-campus research pro-
grams in realization of the fact
that the education of the train
ed scientist is never done.
Despite all of these activities
that are in operation to i'm
prove and broaden the opport-
unities available to our scien-
fists, much more can be done
to attract young men and
women to this nations labora-
