be able to appreciate what it means to be persecuted? After all, these, common people^ of Roumania who have lived side by side with the Jews have had an opportunity to know their qualities and to realize that they, too, deserve fair treatment. However, even if these facts of the Roumanian situation were not known, we would still expect to find tolerance on the ascendancy in the Balkan state. The mere fact that democracy was beginning to assume proper proportions in that country would assure us that tolerance would also be recognized as the only just policy. For, when we analyze democracy, we find that it really amounts to little more than tolerance. It is a declaration and practice of the principle that all men have equal inalienable rights. An aristocracy recognizes a difference in privilege and therefore discriminates against the common people. Probably the only reason that we use both the words democracy and tolerance is that, all too often in the past, it has been assumed that mere political equality meant democracy. The word tolerance, finding no use in that field, came to be used to represent recognition of the right of men to have and to observe their own religions. Although it is true that the words tolerance and democracy have become separated for the grammarian, for practical purposes the divorce was never effected. Where true political democracy succeeds, there one finds as a concomitant circumstance tolerance. United States history proved it almost two centuries ago, and, God willing, Roumanian history will reaffirm it in our present day.

Rita turned tb face her parents, but she could not see them in the gathering gloom. With a supreme gesture of defiance she turned on the light. Her mother and father stood blinking, more in surprise at the act than at the glare. "It's not fine a Jewish daughter should talk so. You should : be proud, too." her father reprimanded her. "Yes, Rittele. proud of your brother, proud of your family." The girl tossed her head. "Pride. Hmmm. Family pride.

ment and policy which were bound to arise among Jews, situated in circumstances so diverse as Koumania. let us say, and Detroit. There, in Eastern Europe, he has seen the Jew, still handicapped by a lack of intellectual opportunity and, indeed, worse off than before the war. For in Poland, where thc-re are 3,000,000 Jews, it was at least possible to trade with Russia and as far east as the Great Wall of China. But today, the Jewish merchant finds that his market is bounded at the frontiers of Poland by a wall of tariffs. On the other hand, in the United States and Great Britain, the Jew is a citizen, with a career before him which may lead to wealth, knowledge and high office. Into these discussions, I will not enter.

ticular attention to some of his specials by a similar method. He found that by hanging a drop light over some special on berries or fruit or something like-that, he had no difficulty in selling the commodity. Cutting cheese with an ordinary knife is not so easy, as any grocer knows. But it's simple if you follow the idea discovered by a Iiouisiana grocer. He removed the blade from a scroll saw, and stretched a banjo wire across the frame.

A western grocer who knows what children like, doubled his cookie sales recently by putting them up in half-dozen lots in glassine bags. The bags were scalloped at the top so that when twisted together they looked like open flowers, and the cookies looked unusually attractive showing through the lower part of the bag. "Just the thing for the kiddies' lunches," many a mother said. And to the children they tasted ever so much better all dolled up. It took the grocer but a few minutes to scallop 50 or 100 bags with a wissors.
An investigation once revealed a school of weakfish being chased by another school of bluefish. Panicstricken, the weakfish had swum right into the bathers. Fishermen said they had never seen such a large school of fish. It extended three miles out to sea. And that's the way the chain store used to scare some of us—before we learned how to stand up and fight like men. They had some of us on the run—even like unto the weakfish.

WHO PAYS? (Continued from Page 2) "But it's not right, Mamma," a sob broke in Rita's throat. "It's not right. Why can't I live? Live my own life? In a decent place so I can have my friends up. Even when I. do meet someone I like, I can't invite him here, to sit in the dining room with the whole family. And I never get a new thing to wear." "Sha, sha. Wait already, when Sammy finishes school." Rita twisted out of her mother's preferred embrace. Her father turned on her threateningly. "Rita, let it be quiet I So it must be!" "Oh, so that's all the difference I make? That's all what I say counts? Very well. I'm tired of this. I'm going to do something for myself for a change. I've a right to live my own life. Let Sammy go fish for his tuition money. See how he likes it!" Breathing heavily from excitement, Rita ran into the next room, and came out with her coat on. On the faces of her parents amazement was written. Quickly she jerked on her hat and threw open the door. Sammy, a lank youth of nineteen, stood framed in the doorway.
Rapidly zooming across the horizon speeds the open season for the omniscient experts to take their annual fling at making mistakes in selecting All-sometnlng-or-otner mythical grid elevens. And as a brother scribe has so aptly pointed out, unfortunately some Jewish periodicals ' also have a member of the AllKnowing, All-Wise, All-Seeing selectoriate to entertain as. All-Star pigskin selections may be all right in some places, preferably in the joke column, but when these Jewish snort commentaries begin choosing All-Jewish all-star teams, a : halt is in order. The first of the trillion' reasons why, such a group should not be issued is that no writer, whoever and wherever he may be, is in a position' to nominate a specific All-star Jewish eleven. The dailies do not carry reports on more than half a dozen Yiddish gridsters in the entire country, and surely.little assistance is to be derived from the Jewish press, with their local concentration..

'Hello," he said, smiling easily, "what's all the excitement? I could hear you all the way down the stairs," "You were going to meet me here this afternoon for the tuition money!" Rita confronted him. N "I know, Rit, but I can take the money Monday just as well. Some of the fellows came around, so we went to a matinee. Roughly, Rita pushed him aside. "Well, now I'm going out. Ask Mamma where." As she closed the door, Rita called back chokingly. "Ask Mamma where." •

In a Greenwich Village cellar which had been converted into a cafeteria, dingy as to walls, unclothed tables huddled together, Rita sat, her eyes shining. A young man obviously of the Village, faced her across the table. Before them the soiled dishes of their meal sprawled. The young man lit a cigarette, tilted his chair back and, said, "Now, tell me all about it." "Oh, Karl, it's so wonderful to have somebody who understands. I don't know what I would have done without you. I don't know what I would have done if you .weren't home when I telephoned." "Probably called again. Well?" "And not asking me anything until we'd eaten, Karl, you understand so perfectly." . "There's nothing to understand. You've just begun to live, that's all. Why, my dear, you are exactly two hours old! I've always told you you were wasting yourself. Throwing yourself away. Not doing anything. Not living, just existing." "But what can I do now, Karl? I can't do anything, I can't write or paint." "Just live your own life. That in itself is the keenest satisfaction. Oh, I know how you felt. I was the same. I thought it was my bounden duty to support my old mother. Every hero I had ever read about did. And then I discovered it was
wrong for one life to be lost in order that another could exist. There was someone else who looked after my mother after I cut loose. And in the meantime, I became a person. With thoughts." With a life, not just a machine to earn a living for my mother." Rita clasped her hands. "Oh. why haven't I seen this before? I was always afraid to voice my opinion. I never dared do anything I really wanted to do while Sammy was in college and everything had to be paid for out of my salary." "And I'm not the only one," Karl waved his hand about the roomful Of noisy diners. "All these people, they've learned the same thing, to do what they want to do. Never mind about anyone else, that's our motto." He shoved back his chair. "I'll have some more coffee after that speech. That is. if you say so. You know, you'll have to treat, I'm dead broke." "Oh. sure. I'll treat." Rita said, thinking happily of her poeketbook full of the money which was to have
been Sammy's tuition fee. "Get me| some more, too." Karl rose and stationed himself at the end of the queue of people moving slowly past the counters of food. Rita sighed, her face flushed with the spiritual excitement of emancipation. Then she gazed about her, at the others who had been emancipated. At the next table a woman was taking money from her purse, scanning the holes punched on the two checks she held. Her escort, a man with soft flowing tie and a poet's brow, lolled back in his chair. •'It might interest you to know," the woman said, "that the rent is due tomorrow." "Tell her to call again, that's all," the man yawned. "She ought to b"e used to it by now." "Yes, she's more than used to it, that's why it won't work again." "Well, we can't steal it can we?" "Xo, nor pawn anything. There isn't much left. Oh. I don't know why I stand it any longer."
