Today and Tomorrow By Frank Parker Stockbridge NAMES .. nation-wide study What is the commonest name in America? Right--it's Smith. But in Brook- lyn, N. Y., and the Borough of the Bronx there are more Cohiens than Smiths, and in The Bronx, almost entirely populated by Jews, there are also more people named Schwartz and Miller. A study qf the telephone books and city directories of the whole nation has just been made, and shows that the names which ap- pear oftenest are, in order of their frequency, Smith, Johnson, Brown, Williams, Jones, Miller, Davis, Anderson, Wilson and Moore. Smith is a universal name. It means the worker in metals and it is the same whether Johnson is usually Seandinavian in this country, but it is also English and Scotch. The Browns may have started out as Brauns or Le Brun, but the more likely to be of Eng- lish descent. Williams and Jones are straight Welsh, as are the Davises. The Millers are another inter- national family, Mueller and Mou- lineaux being other spellings. The Andersons and Wilsons are Scotch of course, and who ever heard of a person named Moore who didn't Trace back to the Emerald Isle ?

The principal objection to the "lame duck" session is that it per- mits a defeated Member to remain in the House for a session after his defeat, where he may possibly obstruct legislation and be unre- sponsive to the will of the ele~- torate. Such objection is not valid as applied to the quality of statesmanship which you repre- sent. Because of the service which you have rendered, and will render, to your State and the Nation, I re- quest that your resignation be not submitted. Very sincerely yours, (Signed) JOHN N.

Will they ever submerge their own selfish de- sires so that the greatest good may be accomplished for the most people? The cause for all this discus- sion is the recent meeting held at the old Library building un- der the joint auspices of the B'nai Brith and the Young Men's Club. An attendance that sur" prised everyone and particularly the officers of both organizations greeted the first call to the Mi- ami Jews. However, as is usual cit such meetings, the orators came to the fore. They orated at length and as a result little was done. Some of the men at- tending realizing the necessitV for saving the situation wisely moved- the appointment of a joint committee to submit plans. This was done. Next Thursday evening the test of what Miami Jewry wants done; whether or not it is ready to work jointly for the common good; the solution to what is the problem of the day regard. ing Jewish activities; all will be determined once and for all. To .the leaders of both organiz- ations under whose auspices the meeting has been called, we re- spectfully urge: It is admitted that both of you have done some good work, and that this fact should be recognized. It would have been a very splendid thing for both organizations to con- tinue, but this has been conceded a ell ni h impossible. Why no or the common good of all Miami Jewry recognize this fact and, come prepared to give up your identity if by doing that, all Miami Jewry will be united for the common cause and the common good. The test is here .. It must be met .. It is the duty of every Miami Jew, old or young, athletically or socially inclined, to attend this meeting. Come prepared to do and act for the common good, not merely to make speeches and delay action. We have sufficient faith in the com- mon sense and good judgment of all Miami Jews to believe that if calm consideration and ma- ture reflection is given this mat- ter, some real good will come of it all.

"I don't assume any school can teach a boy how to succeed," he said. "What I want is to have my son learn something about the history of business." He proceeded to illustrate from his own experience. Until 1904 he was a newspaper reporter, but that year he took a job with the manufacturing concern of which he is now the head. In 1907, when he was just be- ginning to get under way, along came a pamc. "We cleared away the wreckage and started again," he said, "but in 1910 there was a strike which tied up our plants, destroyed part of our property and disrupted our trade. "Suddenly the war, and the slump was transformed into a boom! But don't imagine the boom was any picnic. To be sure, the orders rolled in from every side, but prices of raw material sky-rocketed, our capital was limited, and I wore out my shoes and got grey headed borrowing money from one bank to pay back another. "Then the war ended, and w% ~ took an awful beating in our in- ventory. Then the 1920-22 de- pression. Then another boom. "And now this. "It would be advantageous to my boy, I believe, if he were fam- iliar with this sequence of events, if he knew the ups and downs not only ofi modern business but Of business through the ages. May- be he would come into life with- out the illusion which has handi- capped so many of us--that there is any such thing as 'normal' in the sense of permanently settled conditions and uninterrupted pro- gress." I thought these were very wise remarks. As far back as I cani remember I have been hoping and planning for a time when I should be "com- fortably fixed." At first I thought Sif I could ever accumulate $20,- 1000 in good safe bonds I'd have an income of $1,000 a year and then I could look out with philo- sophic calm! upon the foibles of the world* The only progress I have made during the past three years has been in health. I try to ride horse- back more, swim more, play more golf, and keep generally tough and supple. I'm quite sure that as long as I live I shall have to keep hustling--that just about the timle I get everything nicely /fixed something will happen. STAIMPS .. and their value Many readers have written me to ask the value of old stamps in their possession since I wrdte something about the prices some rare stamps bring. I am not an authority on stamps, but experts tell me that the value of any giv- en stamp is what it will bring at auction, where stamp prices are fixed. Most stamp dealers are honest, but one man who sent a very rare stamp to a dealer found himself ' victimized. The dealer paid him $165 for the stamp, then sold it for $7,500. The original owner sued the dealer and the courts have ordered him to pay the diff~er- ence. * The best way to find out whbeth, or an old stamp has value is to send a photograph of it to the American Phillatelle Sciety, Den. ver. -- -- - - The cash value of the materials cradle of the human race may in the human body has fallen off have an object which is as yet~ FL 0 RIDING PUBJISHED BVERIY FRIDAY EWISH PLORIDIAN PUBLISHING CO. 107 BOUTH MIAMI AVENUE J.

"We have been very faithful, sr" Going: Back Thirty Years (Reprint, B'nal Brith Magazine) Thirty years ago when, in many communities, public educational facilities were still meager, Jew- ish organizations were on their own account performing secular educational functions of their own people. In many a city manual training was still unknown in the public schools, but Jewish organizations were conducting manual training schools. The Jewish "kitchen gar- den" was providing instruction in domestic arts long before public education came to this. The playgrounds of Jewish in- stitutions were delighting and safeguarding Jewish children be- fore playgrounds came generally rio be regarded as prime essentials to social welfare. "These," said the Jewish organ- izations, "are our people. As eiti- sens of this community they are entitled to the best that education has to give, to the end that they may be the worthiest of citizens. Since the general community seems unable or unwilling to pro- vide its citizens with a full meas. ure of education, it is our duty to do this for our people in its stead n So many a Jewish community taxed itself for functions which the local government ought to have performed. Indeed, the first classes in citizenship, by which immigrants were made ready for naturalization, were under Jewish auspices. NT, thit, .dr l t e unconfessed.

Come back to nie, please, I won't mind if you're wild; I'll no more be cross with you, My buddy, my child. I miss your morning kiss, Your warm body at night As you'd curl up against me With a sigh of delight. I took you for granted, Did nothing to hold you, And now that you're gone I long to enfold you. Just name your own pleasure, I'll do anything you say- I'll walk with you at midnight And play with you all day. I'll perform miracles for you, I'll even like the fog, If you'll only come back to me, "Hobo"?-my dog! ! Do you wonder today what The postman will bring As he travels along your way ? Will there be a letter from Friends who are near, Or from those who are far away? Will the missive impart Some joy to the heart, about 50 per cent since the slump began, and is still going down. Whereas, for the last two or three weeks hogs have steadily gone up. Laugh that off. If the new theory is true that America was discovered long be- fore Columbus or Eric the Red by wanderers from the South Seas, they have had plenty of time to make good their escape.

(ple,- a Jewish group adopts a health service which, as a public institution, had to be dropped. In Chicago the Jewish People's Institute takes over a portion of the burden of public education. Chicago, its treasury depleted, has no summer schools this year. In summer schools children make up subjects in which they were de- ficient and thus are enabled to pass, and other children speed the process of graduation by taking extra courses in these schools. Says the Jewish People's Insti- tute in effect: "When public fune- tions fail we must look after our own. The burden that falls from the shoulders of government be- comes ours. Our children shall not run idle on the streets this summer." So the Jewish People's Institute has ~opened a summer school for Jewish children to provide for them all the courses that the pub- lic schools would have given them. The Jew continues to be con- scious of his responsibilities even when the public agencies fail. .AL TI[RGA By HAROLD DEBREST Oh Lord, tell Jacob's tormentors, The blind, the timid dissenters, "There's nothing to fear!"

His father was minister of correspondence to the English, Hungarian and Italian embassies, and his mother prin- cipal of the Royal university for girls in Vienna.

Radio found him, or he found radio, he isn't sure which, in 1924, making his first appearance on station WJZ, New York. During the following five years, he made strides toward success, managing station s, directing and anno uncing programs, and always creating new ones. Perhaps the most out- stanrding of these is the "Music Appreciation Hour," familiar to Miami fans. He .originated the program and worked with it two years, then passed it to Walter Damrosely, who directs it now.
