ity," This goal has remained
unaltered. The organization
devotes itself to the spiritual
and human welfare of the
Jewish race and of the coun-
try in which they reside. The
start was difficult. There were
various interpretations of or
thodoxy. Languages were a
barrier. There were Zionists
and non-Zionists. But each
had the rich heritage of the
Jew-of the law and tradi-
tion. B'nai Birth advocated
no doctrine and espoused no
political controversy. 1t never
has.
German Jewish immigrants
were the founders. They first
chose the name Bundles
Brueder," a German-Yiddish
term for Band of Brothers"
Later Independent Order Of
B'nai Birth (Sons of the
Covenant)" was chosen. It
has been shortened to the
last two words. A motto was
selected. 1t has remained un-
changed. "Benevolence,
Brotherly Love, and Har-
mony." Charity was and is
a major activity.
BY 1850 the first commun-
ity center had been opened in
New York. In 1860, when
President Lincoln'S call for
volunteers was made, B'nai
Birth recruited and equipped
with rifles and uniforms an
entire company of Jewish
soldiers. (The Confederate
Army also had a number of
Jews who distinguished them
selves in the Army and gov
ernment). The first citation

Time was when this cor
respondent used to hear the
expression: I'm an Ameri-
can first and a newspaper
man second" But today
things seem different. No
matter how damaging to
ones own country, the ten
dency now is to give the in

who promptly quotes it in
his propaganda speeches.

II can find no evidence that
fingerprinting teachers is desir-
able. Also, it might interfere
with the hiring of some teach
ers who object to being finger
printed"
1t was the first time a county
school official has taken a pub
lie stand on the controversial
issue since it was raised nearly
four months ago by States At
torney Leonard T. Hardy.
At that time, Hardy called on
the Board of Education to put
into immediate effect the grand
jury's recommendation for a po-
lice check of all present and
prospective school workers.
Hardy said the check should in
clude fingerprinting.
Two weeks later, in response
to a letter from Hardy, the
School Board instructed Whit
tier to make a study of it's en-
ployment procedures and to sug-
gest any changes believed nec-
essary.
No announcement on the mat
ter had come from the board or
from Whittier until the schools
head revealed his opinion under
questioning by The Sentinel.
Whittier insisted that the
boards present teacher hiring
methods are adequate and
sound. They are based prima-
rily on:
l. A thorough check with the
applicants former employers,
along with a careful study of
his employment record.
2. Examination Of a tran
script Of the applicants college
record, together with the COM
ments of his instructors.

shown me why fingerprinting
should be instituted as part of
the selection process. In the
first place, it would be costly
to the taxpayers because we
would have to have five or six
people to do nothing but finger
print school employees. And
there is no educational justifica-
ton for this added expense.
"Also, it would prevent US
from hiring those teachers who
would object to being finger
printed. We are in a very COM
petitive market, and those OBJ
jecting to such a practice could
easily 60 somewhere else"
States Attorney Hardy, in
commenting on Whittier's state
ment, cohtended school employ
ees could be fingerprinted at no
extra cost through the use of
present county fingerprint ia
cilities.
AFTER ALL" Hardy said, "all
of the teachers and other Board
of Education employees wouldn't
have to be fingerprinted at one
time. We could easily have them
report at their convenience so
that none of the school func-
tons would be disrupted. After
that, it would be a simple mat
