Black_ candidate for judge to this court for the long term, is gradu- ally rolling up the undisputed sup- port of the Jewish voters, individ- ually and Jewish organizations as a whole. Many Jewish organizations in the city, such as the Berdichever, progressive Aid Society, the Zit- °met Progressive Vnterstitzung Vert. , . the Odessa Verein and par- ticularly the Unity Voters League, the only Jewish political organiza- tion in the city, have not only en- dorsed Mr. Black but active com- mittees have been appointed to as- s is t the general "Black for Judge Campaign ('ommittee" to put him over. Many Jewsih women's organiza- tions under the able leadership of Eve Prenzlauer are taking part in the campaign in the hope of it suc- cessful conclusion at the primaries on Monday. Mr. Black not only has the sup- port of the Jewish noon unity, but is backed by the Polish citizenry under the official leadership of the Polish Daily News.

The instruction in the schools is organized into three distinct de- partments: the kindergarten, ex- tending over a period of a year where five year old children are ad- mitted; the elementary department, extending over a period of seven years; and the high school, which offers a three year course. The studies include prayers, the Torah, the Prophets, Jewish History, the Hebrew language, ethics and mor- the queen of the god of light. Taking their cue from the name- jugglers, the historians try to find some meaning in the similarity of Marduk with Mordecai, Ishtar with Esther. They seek for a holiday in the Persian calendar, that would correspond to the feast of I'urim on the fourteenth and fifteenth of Arian If such a holiday existed. it might be that the Jews, while in exile in Persia, took over the fes- tival, and later brought it hack to Jerusalem with them, and Made it over into a Jewish holiday. But unfortunately for that theory, no one has been able to find a Persian holiday that corresponded to the fourteenth of Ader.
