A—12 =¥ IEWRY BSERVE TAYOFATONEMENT “Fasting and Prayer Mark Yom Kippur’s Tradi- tional Rites. - With the chanting of “Kol Nidre” and the sounding of shofar, the tra- ¥ ditional ram’s horn, Hebrew congre- gations of Washington filled their ¥ temples and synagogues today to con- * tinue observance of Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. . Religious services for the holy occa- * sion began at sundown last night and today was to be wholly devoted to resting, fasting and prayer, cul- minating in more religious services in the various synagogues this evening. Leading Rabbis Speak. Ceremonies this morning were . marked by sermons by the city's lead- ing rabbis. At Adas Israel Synagogue Rabbi Solomon Metz spoke on the “Conquest of Death” and Rabbi J. T. Loeb of the Southeast Hebrew Con- gregation discussed “Our Youth.” At the temple of the Washington Hebrew Congregation Rabbi Abram Simon delivered a sermon on “Our Eternal Covenant,” followed by chil- dren’s rites at 12:15 pm. The an- nual memorial service was to be held at 3:30 this afternoon and Neelah, the concluding prayer, at 4:30 p.m. B'nai Israel to Elect. The B'nai Israel Congregation will elect a new synagogue president and other officers at 9 p.m. as the New Year holidays come to a close. Rabbi Aaron Volkman preached this morn- ing on “Our Contribution.” Residents of the Hebrew Home for the Aged today, clad in their white | prayer shawls with black stripes, | gathered at the brilliantly lighted | altars in the two churches for a series of worship and memorial services under the direction of Maurice Maser, executive director of the home, who | was assisted by M. Lerner and Phillip Miller. All the 62 residents of the home. from the youngest to the oldest, a woman of 100 years, were to partici- pate in the purifying rites and the elaborate feast given afterward to | break the fast. | Washington Jewry will celebrate | Succoth, the Feast of Tabernacles, next Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Succoth, following a series of holy | days, including the Day of Judgment and the Day of Atonement, has a two- fold significance. Celebrated at harvest | time, it is the festival of gratitude | for the bounties of nature, and his- torically it commemorates the Israel- ites’ 40 years of wandering in the Desert of Sinai. MOONEY PETITION IN SUPREME COURT| Presentation Made in Second Ef-| fort to Obtain Release on . Habeas Corpus. By the Associated Press. The second petition for a writ of habeas corpus to obtain the release | of Thomas J. Mooney, who is serving a life term for participation in the bombing of the Preparedness day parade in San Prancisco in 1916, was formally presented to the Supreme Court today. It was filed several days ago by John F. Finerty, counsel for Mooney, who in a statement said the action was taken because proceedings in the California Supreme Court have been a “travesty.” Last January the Supreme Court refused to entertain such proceedings, because it was not satisfled that Mooney had exhausted every avenue in California courts. He contended he was convicted on perjury. The second petition for habeas corpus allezed that develop- ments in the State courts had dem- onstrated there is no adequate cor- rective process available there to ob- tain a proper hearing. The high court probably will an- nounce next Monday whether it will permit the petition to be filed. MEMBERSHIF; IN C.-C. C.

By the Associated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, October 7.—Re- instatement of 1,600 union longshore- men who had been suspended because of refusal to handle so-called “hot” cargo was announced by the San Francisco Water Front Employers’ As- sociation yesterday. The announcement followed a rul- ing by M. C. Sloss, Labor Board ref- eree, that employers had no authority under last year’s strike award to maintain a “suspended list.” Cargo aboard the steamer Point Clear, which the longshoremen have thus far refused to work because it was diverted from British Columbia, where a strike was in progress, re- mained the principal obstacle to water front peace. Harry Bridges, president of the San | Francisco local of the I L. A, said | that he believed the Point Clear dis- pute will be cleared up “within the next day or so.” Girl Killed When Auto Skids.

This was revealed today in the an- nual report for the fiscal year ended last June 30, prepared for the Board of Education by Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent of schools. The re- port, a series of comparative statis- tical tables, will be included in the annual report of the District govern- ment, now in preparation for publi- cation. During the five-year period covered the enroliment jumped from 84,648 to 99,722 and the increase in cost of operation went up from $9,805,321.89 to $9,805,727.31. The enrollment figures do not take into consideration the Americaniza- tion schools, training of deaf and blind pupils, tubercular pupils and crippled children. Their inclusion will reduce the cost per pupil still further. Shifts in Personnel. The number of administrative offi- cers dropped from 194 to 189. The clerks increased from 96 to 114. An attendance officer added one clerk, for a total of 21. The teaching and library forces increased from 2,783 to 2,906.

Deal ‘with it in seriousness. A cold is too fraught with dan- ger to be taken lightly. Many a case of flu and pneumonia has started with nothing more than a “common cold”. Treat a cold for what it is—an internal infection. Therefore, in- ternal treatment. Treat a cold with a preparation made for colds and not a“cure-all”. Grove's Laxative Bromo Quinine is your answer to a cold. It is a cold tablet, made expressly for the trehtment of colds and not for all kinds of ailments. It is internal in effect and it does four important things. First, it opens the bowels, an Im]gorunt step in overcoming a cold. Second, it checks the infection in the system, a vital step.

By the Associated Press The National Aeronautical Associa- | tion announced today that plans had | been drawn up for a 50-ton flying | boat to carry pay loads of passengers, mail and express between New York | and London on regular overnight schedule, “every hour on the hour.” | The proposed flying boat, which en- | gineers were said to hold “entirely feasible,” will be a reality soon, the assoclation declared. The ship, the association contended, will be twice as large as the 51,000-pound clipper ship being built for use on the projected trans-Pacific route. | According to the technical report, | first-class passengers might pay as| low as $415 for a one-way trip from New York to London at the start of the transoceanic service of two round | trips a week, with the rate dropping to $265 when nine or more trips were made each week.

Representative Mitchell, Democrat of Ilinois, only colored member of Congress, said today he had not advised members of his race regard- ing their actions in the Italo-Ethi- opian situation. He was described in press reports Saturday as advising colored persons not to demonstrate against Italians in | this country. Mitchell sald that while he saw “the attitude of Italy | as being a well planned and deliberate | move to exploit what she regards as a weaker nation,” he refrained from recommending any course of action to members of his race in this country. Negroes, he added, should not be | held responsible when they ‘“are attacked as they were in recent cases.” - One-House Town.
