NEW YORK, Nov. 2S.-The
corporate bond market edged
cautiously higher this week
but Treasury securities drifted
lower. Trading volume de-
clined. New financing was in
the doldrums while an impos-
ing array Of new issues was
building up to provide a stern
test Of the market before the
year end.
Among the corporates, in
veStment quality issues and
foreign bonds declined. Rails,
industrials and utilities ad-
Vanced.
The Government bond mar
ket was notable primarily for
a lack of investor interest,
dealers said. One reason was
that the Treasury sold 81 bill

Several factors have entered
into these fabulous gains to cli-
max a great historic past. An
able management under leader
ship of President Barnum l..
Cotton has brought more than
NEWS share of normal growth
In a growing area.
=, John L. Lewis and his United
Nine Workers acquired a sub
'stantial interest in the bank in
June, 1949, and this may have
brought in some large union
funds. Mr.. Cotton became pres
ident in 1949.
't Two major mergers, one with
Hamilton National Bank in
1854 and with Liberty National
Bank in 1857 also brought
sharp increases in NBW'S size.
Just 4 Small Town
The bank was organized
hardly more than a generation
after the Revolution. WASH
ington had been the Nations
Capital for only nine years and
1t still was regarded as little
more than a small country
town. Georgetown and Alex
andria had banking services,
but around Capitol Hill there
were no such conveniences. A
group Of businessmen met in
Longs Hotel in CAROLS row,
where the Library of Congress
now stands. Articles of asso-
citation creating the new bank
were drawn on September 4,
1909, and an offering of $4,000
shares at $40 a share was
planned.

In 1881 the property at Sew
enth street and Pennsylvania
avenue NV. was purchased.
The present granite-and-
marble structure on this site
was constructed in 1889 and
for IS years served as the
NBW's main Office.
When Hamilton National
was merged in 1854, its offlce
at Fourteenth and G streets
NV, became the main Office
and the Seventh and Penn

became the banks Washington
branch.
Recent Growth Reviewed

said in the Jewish Scriptures
to have been performed in the
dead of night, like that of the
Passover.
This poem has been part of
the Haggadah for centuries
but the authorship was only
discovered recently, accord
ing to Prof. Caster. Some
30 years ago, Prof. Israel
Davidson made the discovery
that an ancient manuscript of
the Greek Bible was actually
written over a still older
Hebrew document. The docu-
ment proved on investigation
to be a copy of the poems of
Yannai, a Jewish liturgist of
the Seventh Century and one
of the poems was the acroStic.
PROF. CASTER seeks to
trace the origin of the seder
The Arizona post., 1959-04-17

Ritual Differs Around World

poem Xxi Lo Na'eh," an acros-
tic of unknown origin which
reciteS the various attributes
of the Deity. The Dropsie Col
lege expert suggests that the
refrain is really a series of
catchWords referring to Bibli-
cal verses which were meant
to be sung in full.
The background of the
hymn "Addir Hu," the most
rousing tune in the Seder
Service, is described by Prof.
Caster as dating from the
Fifteenth Century. He reports
that "Addir Hu" was the con-
cluding melody for the Seder
services in Germany for
many years.
"Addir Hu" was not reSerV-
ed for Passover in the ritual
of the Jews of Avignon in
France. These Jews sang it as
a general festival hymn.
Prof Caster notes that the
very same attributes as are
assigned to God in "Addir
Hu" are likewise assigned,
and in the same alphabetical
order, to the bridegroom in a
modern Jewish wedding song
from Yemen.
The counting song, which
begins: "Who Knows One?"
is labeled a pure folksong.
The fact that the count pro-
ceeds to 13, in line with the
reference-in Exodus 34-to
the 13 attributes of God, leads
Prof. Caster to suggest that
the song originally was meant
as a kind of catechiSm for
boys, an additional verse be-
ing learned each year until
the boy reached the age of
Bar Mitzvah.
"Who Knows One" has its
counterpart in all languages,
says Professor Caster.
THE LAST and most fam
iliar song, Had Gadya," is
believed to be an imitation
of a Fifteenth Gentry German
rhyme, "The Master Who
Sent the Yokel on an Errand,"
DR.. Caster asserts.
For many years, Had
Gadya" was popularity in
terpreted as an allegorical
history of God, according to
Prof. Caster. The kid was Is
rael, purchased by the Lord
for the price of the two tables
of the Covenant. The fox was
Assyria, the dog Babylon, the
stick Persia, the fire Greece,
the water Rome, the OK ther-
Saracens, the butcher the
Crusaders and the Turkish
domination the angel of
death.
Another example is a poem
found in the prayer-book of
the Jews of Carpentras, which
eloquently describes the sad
ness which so often ac-
companied the celebration of
Passover in medieval times.
A typical verse reads:
In Egypt, when they held
the feast
They were redeemed and
free;
But we who keep it here,
o Lord,
Are bowed meath tyranny.

Songs Of The Hogoddoh

phia. But while the hymns
and folksongs vary from
place to place throughout the
world, a number of them have
become standardized in West
ern countries. These have be-
come an integral part of the
Seder service in the west.
The development and back
ground of the Seder songs are
outlined by Prof. Caster In
a small but perceptive book,
Passover" It's History and
Traditions"
The first of the songs,
which begins: "Laban the
Aramean" and which is re-
cited only at the first Seder,

Guarding Thought

dTulUS 4uOuSUk
Sometimes it is felt that one
cannot control wrong thoughts,
that they come in spite of ones
best efforts to resist them. Scare
advertising, for example, bangles
the possibility of pain and suffer-
ing before ones thought in an eff
fort to compel one to buy a So
called preventive product. One
cannot always avoid seeing the
tobacco and alcohol advertising
which speaks glowingly of the
pleasures derived from their use,
but never hints the physical
bondage and mental slavery they
engender.
The same holds true of sinful
thoughts - the jealousy. envy,
prOcraStination. SelfiShnesS, and
other forms of evil which blight
human existence. Christian Sci
ence shows that one is not neces-
sarily responsible for the thoughts
that come to him. But he is re-
sponsible if he responds to those
thoughts, if he takes them in, if
he mistakenly believes that they
are his own thinking and that he
is helpless to correct them.
Protection lies in the fact that
we are never denied freedom of
choice. We can always apply the
simple directive of Scripture.
"Resist the devil. and he will fee
from you" flames All. The
devil, of course, is not person.
1t is carnal-mindedneSS, wrong
thinking. And it matters not what
the devilish thoughts may be-
fear, accident, disease, envy, sem
suality, lack. hatred-we can al
ways choose to refrain from
making them our own. Outside
our consciousness they can cause
US no harm. but once they are
admitted, we invariably suffer
the consequences.
Salvation begins in this way
choosing good thoughts, resisting
bad. listening to what the Christ
is speaking to the human con-
SciouSneSS, and then needing that
message. Salvation comes from
the daily practice of spiritual
mindedness, and through that eff
fort the consistent overcoming of
sin and disease.
You and | can form the habit
of right thinking by following the
instruction SO clearly set forth in
