NEW YORK, (AJP) — "Eddy
Duchin never hurt anybody in

his life", said Dr. Julius Mark of
Temple Emanual at the funeral
of the great band leader.
Death took the 41-year-old
virtuoso whose tintillating piano
selections earned themselves an
honored- place in the musical
world. Eddy was a naval :officer
during World War II serving in
the operations •and landings at
Iwo Jima and later at Norman-
dy. He was discharged in 1945
as a Lieutenant Commander.
Eddy Duchin was ill with
Lukeniia since his discharge but
kept on working until the dread
disease finally cut him down
this week.

Kvutzah Offer Memorial
To Mrs. Benjamin Stein

Democratic Experiment in New York
Is Clue to Real World Brotherhood

By FRANK SIMONS

Often the crossroads of
A Memorial meeting for Mrs. America are referred to as New
Benjamin Stein, who passed York's famed intersection,
away a month ago, will be held Broadway and 42nd street. To
Rev. Richard E. Evans, minister
of the Presbyterian Labor Tem-
ple, the real crossroads is at
14th street -and 2nd Avenue
where the Temple is situated
and where "the glits of Ameri-
can Democracy is rooted."
Rev. Evans,. in Detroit early
this week on his way to a Broth-
erhood Week meeting in Mil-
waukee, stopped to chat with a
small group of civil rights peo-
ple on the work of his Temple,
called "the most amazing ex-
periment in democracy ever
tried." .

LATE MRS. B. STEIN

at 2:30 p.m., Sunday, in the
auditorium of the Rose Sittig
Cohen Bldg.
Held under the auspices of
the Kvutzah Ivrith and its La-
dies Auxiliary, it will include
appropriate readings from the
Psalter, brief talks by Bernard
Isaacs and Alex Gershon, a
reading by Aaron Taback and
the chanting of the Mole.
The committee in charge of
the program includes Mrs. Jo-
seph Geselia, Mrs. M. Rappaport,
Mr. and Mrs. Abraham Panush,
Norman Ruttenberg, Morris No-
bel, J. M. Mathis, Mrs. Julius
Ring and Bernard Isaacs.

The Labor Temple, started
by the Presbyterian clergy in
New York 40 years ago, has
functioned since it opened as
a non - sectarian i n stitution
dedicated to an open door
policy Which discriminates
against no person on the
grounds of race, color, reli-
gion or nationality. From a
small start, the Temple has
grown into a democratic com-
munity in itself where five re-
ligious groups worship and
where 11 different demonina-
tion hold their activities.
The Labor Temple owns its
o w n building, a seven - story

fulfillment of a promise he
made 30 years earlier when he
decided on the ministry. He told
his foster mother that if he
entered the clergy it would be to
aid people. Not just Presbyter-
ian or whites, but people —
whether white or Negro, Cath-
olic, Protestant, Jewish or what-
haveyou. He even singled out
Labor Temple as THE place at
which he would enjoy working.
The "rebel," as Rev. Evans
likes to call himself, has been a
crusader for man ever since his
boyhood which was spent in the
stockyard district of Chicago,
where he was born in 1900.

When he took his mother
down South years back be-
cause of her health, the fiery
Rev. Evans preached to a
Negro congregation, which
brought immediate threats
from the Ku Klux Klan. His
life was threatened in Tampa
if he didn't leave town. He
invited the note sender to
occupy a front pew at the
church service and remained
in Tampa.
One of the first Christians in-

terested in aiding the upbuild-
ing of Israel, Rev. EVans is an
active member of the American
Christian Palestine Committee.
When Rev. Evans was in-
ducted as minister of the Tem-
ple in December the sermon was
preached by Rabbi Arthur Liely-
veld, national director of Hillel
Foundations.
Brotherhood as practiced at
the Presbyterian Labor Temple,
at which there strangely is not
a Presbyterian congregation, is

responsibility that we all love."
