...operation to such jet-age innovations as new fuel supplies (the jets eat up 2,000 gal. of kerosene per hour). American's 1,000 maintenance men must virtually relearn their jobs; the jet training manual alone consists of two volumes four inches thick. ¶ Charles A. Rheinstrom, 56, executive vice president for sales, quit American in 1946 after 18 years, went into advertising, came back this year at Smith's request to take on the job of selling jet seats to the public.

Judaism is much more than a religious denomination, and a Jew is a Jew not necessarily by virtue of his religious affiliation. A Jew may be an agnostic and yet he still passes for a Jew by virtue of his descent from the Jewish race. To say this is of course rank heresy, and now that we have made this statement we are quite prepared for the attacks which...
