B'nai B'rith Names
Cultural Head
CINCINNATI: Appointment
of Rabbi Paul Richman as direc-
tor of the newly-established B'nai
B'rith National Bureau of Mem-
bership and Cultural Activities, has
been announced by Alfred M. Coh-
en, president of the order.
Rabbi Richman, who enters up-
on his new duties immediately, will
not only co-ordinate B'nai B'rith
membership efforts on a national
scale, but will develop Jewish cul-
tural and communal programs for
the guidance of the order's 400
American and Canadian lodges.
Born in Latvia 32 years ago,
Rabbi Richman was brought to
this country before he was a year
old, and received his public sshool
education in Columbus, Ohio. Later
he attended Columbia University,
New* York, and Rollins College,
Florida, where he received his de-
gree. He was induced by Rabbi I.
S. Moses of Temple Beth-El,New
York, to enter the rabbinate, and
he graduated from Hebrew Union
college in 1932. He married Miss
Cland, Ohio.
Miriam Carolyn Blum, of East
Cleveland, Ohio.
For the last three years he has
been Rabbi of the Reform con-
gregation at Steubenville, Ohio,
where he was also active in B'nai
B'rith lodge work. Eleven years
ago, when he was scarcely 21 years
old, he was one of the organizers
of the original Orlando (Fla.)
lodge, and its first secretary. For
several years he was associated
with private camps as associate
director of boys in the White
Mountains, N. H.
for the settlement in Palestine of
greater numbers of the Jews of
Germany, Poland and other lands.
The conference was called by a
provisional committee headed by
Dr. Stephen S. Wise, Dr. Israel
Goldstein, Maurice Levin, Louis
Lipsky, Morris Rothenberg and
Nathan Straus. Representative
'cwish leaders of the United
States are expected.
Among the outstanding per-
sonalities at the conference will
be Lord Bearsted (left), Sir
Herbert Samuel (center), for-
mer British home secretary, and
Simon Marks. philanthropist
(right), comprising the delega-
tion of British Jewry coming to
America to confer on plans for
the solution of the Jewish prob-
lem in Germany. These plans
have as their keystone the en-
largement of the absorptive ca-
pacity of Palestine.

The rinsing cry, in a letter which
James G. McDonald has addressed
to the secretary-general of the
League of Nations, the manifest
cry of both horror and alarm from
the lips of this judicious American
should and must silence once and
for all the mutterings of those non-
Jews who want to believe in an
anti-German campaign and the
even more contemptible interior
protests of certain Jews who want
to be left alone and hope that,
whatever happens to the Jewisn
people as a whole, they themselves
will get by. "Desperate sufferings
in the countries adjacent to Ger-
many," Mr. McDonald wrote, "and
an even more terrible human ca-
lamity within the German fron-
tiers are inevitable unless present
tendencies in tne reich are checked
or reversed." Note these weli-
weighed words on the part of a
very sober man: "desperate," "ter-
rible," "inevitable." And indeed
every news item, the elimination
of Jewish commercial travelers, the
further arrest of rabbis, confirms
the truth that the Nazis are wag-
ing a war of extermination against
German Jewry.
At the same time as Mr. McDon-
ald's letter there reaches us the
protest of Weizmann and his col-
leagues against the establishment
of a legislative council in Pales-
tine. "The Jews of the world are
now summoned in a mobilization!"
This is the call that the Zionist Ex-
ecutive issues to world Jewry. And
it is the right and timely call; it is
the only call. For what is it that
has caused stupid colonial offi-
cials to devise the plan of a Leg-
islative Council for Palestine? It
is the supineness of the Jewish
people; it is the cowardice of the
Jewish people; it is the disunion of
the Jewish people; it is the con-
temptible Ghetto Spirit of large
masses of the Jewish people.

ment were untrue or that it were

The recent establishment of ;i conference committee of
national Jewish women's organizations representing the five
leading Jewish women's groups, is a heartening development.
Designed "to inform all national Jewish women's organiza-
tions of the purposes, ideals and achievements of each con-
stituent organization in order to bring about a closer co-op-
eration between them and in order to avoid unnecessary du-
plication of activities," the conference committee should
serve a very useful purpose.
This conference committee, representing Hadassah, the
National Council of Jewish Women, the National Federation
of Temple Sisterhoods, the Women's League of the United
Synagogue and the Women's Branch of the Union of Ortho-
dox Jewish Congregations, has an excellent opportunity to
bring about that much-sought Jewish unity. If it can elim-
inate organizational partisanship, competition for member-
ship and funds and overlapping functions it will have more
than justified its existence. Co-ordination of Jewish wom-
en's activities on a national scale can become a wholesome
factor in Jewish life because the present rivalries between
women's organizations have always been discouraging to
constructive Jewish communal efforts.

A Farewell
By NICK KENNY
Radio Editor, New York Dailv
I hate to leave Miami Beach.
It'- the grandest \acation ever I
had, and it seems this was the
beat of all the vacations the old
aall ever had. I like your night
life ... I like the daytime la/i-
nesx ... I like most everything
here. There Beema to he an utter
indifference to everything here-
abouts, and a- I >a bo many of
my frinds, I wondered why we ail
eouldn't carry on in the north the
same way with the same openness,
the sane cheerio and hello that we
learn to acquire with our tan. Per-
haps that's why Miami Heach is
the world's winter vacation land.
It's the tops.
The greatest thrill of my life-
time well there were two.
Sunday niht at the V. M. H. A.
benefit, which was sponsored with
that fraud uroup of boys and the
ever-working Boris Schlachman (I

esl working fellow c\er I met. He
caunht me off my iruard, sold me

there I was vacationing with a
benefit in my mind. Hut it wa

It's not unu-ual. and many times

one who h.i- given iinstintingly to

I interrupted the judge. who
couldn't stop me. You know as a
supreme court justice in New York
I can't talk back, but from the
other side of the bench we're real
pals. I can't take it. I didn't
want thanks for helping others do
such grand work. To have assist-
ed them in their unselfish work
was sufficient recompense. Well.
I sat them all down. There was
Judge Albert ("ohn of the New
York bench and Seymour Dresner
of Long Beach and Olga Perosove
of some orphanage, and many oth-
ers. I couldn't take it. So then
the mayor of Miami Beach, Louis
Snedigar, interrupted us all and
presented me with a huge loving
cup on behalf of all the Jewish
groups whose assistance I had
t iven them in their drive for funds.
Vnd I bad to give the mayor pref-
erence. He'- ihe boss here and I

put on the benefit and the presen-
tation of the cup at the family Ja-
cobs Alamac Hotel at your glo-
rious Miami Beach is the other of
the two greatest thrills ever I had.
And before I sign off I want to
thank Boris Schlachman for giv-
ing me the opportunity of helping

Alamac Hotel for his unselfish as-
sistanceto Auby Keoskie for
shouldering a five-man job and to
him and great is his pain; but he

The war has just been called and
the earth resound- with the tramp-

in uniforms which flap like sacks
on their emaciated bodies.
The broken apostle waits on a
hill and when the armies have
gathered on the plain, he speaks:
"My fellow Christian-:"
And when they see him in his
feathers and observe the grotesque
rolling of his head on his broken
neck, there arises from them such
a laughter as echoes in all the hills
'round about, and it is as if the
whole world were laughing at him.
"My fellow Christians! Whom

Even as the apostle speaks, the
lieutenant general summons a fir-

"My fellow Christians!" The
apostle's voice fills the valley and
is in all the hills, and he rejoices
for it seems as if all the world is
hearing this assertion of fellow-
'Ready! Aim! Fire!"
The apostle to the Christians
falls and rolls down the hill and he
seems a bull of feathers rolling.

No, my dear friend, I do not care
to be an apostle to the Christians.
Rather would I suffer the pain of
being a Jew. which is an ancient
pain and by long suffering has be-
come endurable.
I shall remain a Jew who is
hopeful that in due time all men
must come to see the justice and
compassion of our law and our
prophets and take them as a way
for the common life.

Think, Work
and Smile
By JACOB H. KAPLAN, Ph. D.
Zionism has become so impor-
tant a subject for every thinking
Jew that I take pleasure to quote
here in full an article on the sub-
ject of Zionism and Patriotism, by
the great American thinker, Louis
I). Brandeis of the Supreme Court
of the United States:
"Let no American imagine that
Zionism is inconsistent with pa-
triotism. Multiple loyalties are
objectionable only if they are in-
consistent. A man is a better cit-
izen of the United States for be-
ing also a loyal citizen of his state,
and of his city; for being loyal ti
his family, and to his profession
or trade; for being loyal to his
college or his lodge. Every Irish-
American who contributed towards
advancing home rule was a better
man and a better American for the
sacrifice he made. Every Amer-
ican Jew who aids in advancing the
Jewish settlement in Palestine,
though he feels that neither he nor
his descendants will ever live there,
will likewise be a better man and
a better American for doing so.
"Note what Seton-Watson says:
'America is full of nationalities
which, while accepting with en-
thusiasm their new American cit-
izenship, nevertheless look to
some center in the Old World as
the source and inspiration of their
national culture and traditions. The
most typical instance is the feel-

Chenette, a member of the
American Bandmasters' Associa-

War and was decorated by the
British government on several oc-

consecutive years. He has com-
posed many nationally popular

Strivings can we develop the lust

Two Campaigns Begin
When, many months ago, this
column confidently predicted that
the United Jewish Appeal would
be dissolved and that its constit-
uent agencies would launch upon
separate activities, there were
murmurings of complaint against
our boldness and accuracy. But
time has corroborated the evidence
which your New York correspond-
ent had accumulated. And now the
Joint Distribution Committee and
the American Palestine Campaign
have established their own offices,
the former remaining on 42nd st.,
the latter going a little further
downtown to 111 Fifth ave., which
has, for many years, been the
headquarters of Zionist activity in
Statements of mutual admira-
tion have been issued on both sides.
That is the technique of polite
gentlemen. But these gracioua
nothings do not hide the fact that
love is not lost between the lead-
en of both sides. And for the in-
formation of my country readers
who always see enmities between
Jewish leaders in New York as
nothing more than personal rival-
ries and inconsequential jealousies,
let it be said at once that there-
is brewing in New York today as
violent and as significant a con-
troversy as the American Jewish
scene has ever witnessedinclud-
ing even those almost ten years
ago when there was bitterness
about Russia as against Palestine.
The Joint Distribution Commit-
tee and the American Palestine
Campaign did not break up be-
cause, as the announcement so spe-
ciously said, "each could raise
more that way." The opposite is
probably true. The truth is that

The Rambling
By jean s. EPSTEIN An Open Letter
J. D. C. were beginning to fear the
effect on their constituency and oil
their program of too constant em-
phasis on Palestine. And the Pal-
estine leaden were beginning to
champ at the notorious suppres-
sion, insofar us it was possible, of
everything important and interest-
ing that was happening in Pales-
tine. What is happening in Amer-
ica today is merely a reflection of
what has happened in the past year
in Get many when the non-Zionists
fought to the death almost with
the Zionists and had finally to suc-
cumb because they eould not brush
away the truth that Palestine was
saving the Jews of Germany.
There is no secret about the fact
that Stephen S. Wise, most Im-
politic but truthful Jew in Amer-
ica today, has been chafing at the
restraint imposed upon him as
loader of the Palestine forces in
America. He is eager to engage-
in battle, to come before the masses
in that role of tribune to which he
brings not only great forensic pow-
er, but overwhelming sincerity.
But there is fear that if he
launches upon this momentous bat-
tle his motives may be misinter-
preted; there may be harm done
to the fund-raising effort which he
heads. But this column confident-
ly predictsas it did so accurate-
ly months ago on the preceding
eventthat trie year 1936 will wit-
ness the staging of a great strug-
gle, a struggle in which much will
be said that is bitter and harmful
but that in the end much will be
cleaned out that is corrupt and un-
clean. That prophecy starts off
our New Year.

Product arrived timely, as stated. It was heavy but rolled out flat. We used a $2.00 plastic carpet knife from Home Depot and replaced the blade twice - this blade was easier to use than a utility knife. I plan on installing a rubber transition in the doorways due to the high traffic in/out of the room - otherwise everything is staying in place without using glue or tape to hold it down. I installed black rubber cove base (baseboard) on the lower wall and it looks great. It does show foot prints easily but they come off ok with a damp mop - I'll be searching for a way to minimize this to keep the maintenance less intensive. We use this room for Boot Camp, Pilates, Abs class, Step Aerobics, Zumba, Spinning, etc. (spinning bikes do not leave any marks on mat). You do need a cushioned mat when doing floor exercises.
good stuff ! easy to install
Customer reviews are critical to my purchasing decisions, but I rarely take the time to add my feedback. In this case, I simply must post the outstanding experience of working with Rubber Flooring, Inc. My install was for a home gym (14 ft. by 11 ft.) I Asked for and promptly received samples. Customer Service agreed to allow me to take delivery from their plant in Lancaster, PA to save on shipping. They notified me when it was ready. The install was easy -- although I would suggest 2 men because of the weight of the flooring. My wife and I have been doing p90x on the flooring which we installed directly over the concrete slab and are pleased with the quality. Don't expect this to be yoga mat soft -- it isn't. Excellent for aerobic movement. Stiff and hard enough for a treadmill and weight bench not to leave any marks. Does have a strong rubber smell at first, but this is diminishing with time. Would strongly recommend the product and the company.
My wife and I have been doing circuit training on the Plyoribic floor for several months now and have found it a comfortable shock-absorbing surface. It is not soft to the touch, but it provides a comfortable base for jumping, down-and-up exercises, and push-ups. For extended ab work or for yoga we find it more comfortable to lay a yoga mat over the plyorobic.
Delivery was timely. I was concerned at first because the thin layer of plastic in which the roll was wrapped for transit was torn away in several places, but the flooring itself was durable enough not to have been damaged by whatever friction had torn the wrapping.
The roll is laid over a painted cement floor. We have not needed to glue it down. It does travel slightly (about half an inch over the course of 10 workouts) but I simply move it back in place.
I have been doing P90X for 3 years. It is a great workout but can be hard on some joints, particularly when working out on a surface that is too hard or too slick. This product is like a dream come true for my knees. I have had 13 meniscotomy surgeries over the last 40 years and deal with some arthritis issues that make certain compressive motions very difficult. After installing this flooring in a finished basement gym, I noticed immediate relief in my knees. I highly recommend the product. The rolls are too heave to carry, even for two people so you will need an alternate location near your delivery point to cut the rolls down to the lengths that you need. Also, you will want to lay out the rubber roll for a few hours before cutting it, if exact lengths are important. I needed 14'6'' lengths to go from wall to wall. I cut them at 14'8" to allow for some adjustment and then re-rolled the smaller pieces and carried them to the basement. The next day when I rolled them out, they were actually just barely long enough to reach the opposing wall. That was "operator error" and not a problem with the product.
I installed this in less than a couple of hours, literally just rolling it out and cutting with a utility knife to fit. I did not need carpet tape. The rubber flooring has enough grip and weight to stay still. We do a lot of plyo- metric workouts and even some boxing and it holds up great.
We ordered the 3/8" thick rubber flooring, and can't say enough great things about it. It has exceeded our expectations. The people from Rubber Flooring had VERY good customer service. We knew what to expect, and the delivery people were also very professional. My husband brought each of the 3 rolls down our bulkhead stairs on a 2 wheel dolly (I never could have done this) they're heavy. They where pretty easy laying out, and cutting with utility knife, and they laid nice and flat immediately. I do martial arts, yoga, cardio and step on these mats...they are durable but aren't hard like wood or cement. You can pivot on them without wrenching your knees either. We are really happy with this purchase, and it looks fantastic too. I'll send along a photo.
Loving our new FLOOR !
Great flooring. Easy to install although heavy. Customer service was very helpful and guided me to the correct product.
I was skeptical on the durability of this product for a mnaufacturing environment. It has been installed for over three months now and the employees love it. Thank you Rubber Flooring Inc!
I bought the 4x50 foot roll and received more than enough to cover a 12x17 area. I placed it on my concrete basement floor. I bought carpet tape, but found I don't even need it, as this stuff is heavy duty and doesn't move despite jumping around doing p90x plyometrics workouts. Great stuff. Wish the shipping was less expensive, but overall 5 star product and worth it.
My wife and I are involved in P90X, P90X2, Insanity, Asylum, Body Beast and One on One with Tony Horton. We started P90x 7 years ago and have had the same 1/2" thick, 2' x 2' foam tiles on the floor since the beginning. The lateral stability with jumping movements was lacking- the tiles would shift. We looked into professional gym flooring with installation and found that this would cost in the thousands of dollars. We ordered 3 of the 25' PlyoRolls and installed the flooring ourselves, making the gym flooring wall to wall. The installation was much easier than I thought it would be. We used a T-Square for drywall to draw a line across the 4' sheet and cut it with an ExactoKnife- nothing stronger/more powerful was needed. The other very unexpected and positive thing- the flooring is very comfortable on the hands. I was concerned about push ups/ski abs/plank runs etc- not an issue at all.
I would highly recommend this product for any home gym.
I ordered the plyorobic roll after receiving four samples of different flooring. I went with 1/2 inch. What sold me on this one is that it is less dense than the others so it is perfect or my plyo and high intensity interval training routines. I was used to working on 2 layers of old carpet and was worried that ANYthing would be too hard but this stuff is great! It gives with your body to protect your joints yet is sturdy enough for my husband's weight bench. I am a Beachbody coach and have done P902, Insanity, and both Asylum volumes on this so far and it works amazing. Kinda hard to see my black agility ladder on the black floor so I put sports tape on my ladder so I could see it :)
Like you, I read reviews for hours. I agree with many of the reviews I read. Don't use a utility knife to cut this stuff. Use a saw blade. Worked perfect. Smooth, straight edges. We took the 4x50 foot roll and cut it into 3 sections and it is seamless. So now I have a space to work out in that is about 12x16. I purposely did not go wall to wall because I want to take it with me when I move. I used double-sided carpet tape and there is no movement to it. Easy-peasy to clean (and I sweep it every day just for the heck of it because I love how it looks!). Couldn' be happier...now off for my next workout!
The flooring was pretty easy to install. The floor is very stable, nothing slips or moves when we work out. We are very pleased with it.
Here @ FanaticFitness we love your product, we are a start-up web site and this rubber floor is just what we needed. I installed the floor my self, It was not that hard to install. I was able to install a 20x24 room in a day. Your product was wrap and shipped the right way so none of the rolls showed any damage. They used 57 tires to make my floor how cool.
I ordered plyometric flooring for my new gym. Unfortunately some of the rolls showed up damaged. I called the company and they sent out rolls immediately to replace damaged ones. I would recommend these guys for anyone. Thanks
Just installed the plyorobic rubber flooring in our home gym in our basement. It turned out better than I expected. However the cutting and install was a bit more difficult than the videos show. The Utility Knives cut a very raw edge and didn't match up well, so we ended up borrowing our neighbors circular saw that has a 4' track to guide your cut, and it made beautiful edges that matched up perfectly. Would definitely recommend this product. Also since walls aren't perfectly straight make sure you measure several places along your wall to ensure a tight fit. Love, love, love, this flooring!!! Looks amazing and easy to clean. Thanks!
Installed our 3/8" Plyorobics flooring a few weeks ago in our new home gym, and I love it. I've done P90X and other at home workout programs for a year now and needed a room dedicated to working out. I've done plyometrics, yoga, and weightlifting on it, and while it is firm and tough, it has enough give to keep your joints safe. While I recommend still using a yoga mat, you can do some moves directly on the floor. At first it had a strong rubber smell, but that went away in a few days. I let it acclimate for 48 hours as suggested before cutting, so I had problem with it shrinking or expanding.
We removed the existing carpet. We left the carpet pad under this product in a 12 X 12 workout room. We used carpet tape to hold the seams together.
Super durable product. Perfect feel for polymetrics. A bit firm for yoga so we sometimes put a yoga mat down on top of it.
Very happy with this flooring. It is perfect for my P90X workouts. It was very easy to cut and install. No tape or glue necessary and the floor has not budged at all. It does have a slight odor which I anticipate will subside over time.
I ordered the Plyorobic rolls for my basement workout room. Received the rolls with no damage. The rubber was a little more dense and speckled then I had thought, but it was a welcomed change. The rubber cuts with ease, but make sure that you have a new or very sharp razor, or else you will get some rough tearing cuts. I made the mistake of using a duller blade and had some rough cuts. All in all the material is very easy to install, and lays down nicely. I used the double sided tape to keep it from moving, but it doesn't move all that much if you have it installed wall to wall. Seams match up well, and I recommend finding the direction of the cut, it seems that the material was directional, and looked different depending on which way you lay it down. We also used the sealant which I highly recommend. It added a nice shine to the product and gave it a professional look. The rolls are heavy, but I was able to carry the 25' rolls by myself, and we cut the 50' to length before moving it. We also received a little extra on each roll, which helped to finish a closet that we initially thought we would be short on (Thanks). Products sits well, and is great for working out, thanks.

Raw Japan
Slices of Japanese business, politics and life
Disengaged on rings
Six years ago when I decided to propose to my Japanese wife-to-be I went to the main jewellery strip in the Ginza district of Tokyo ready to part with two months' salary for a diamond ring.
The two-month rule was in my head from my years of growing up in the United States where men are conditioned into thinking that this is the price for locking in your lifetime partner.
If only I knew then what I know now.
The fact is in Japan you can get away with spending a lot less - or with not buying an engagement ring at all.
Diamond producer De Beers is widely credited with creating the two-month tradition with its famous "A Diamond is Forever" campaign that began back in 1947.
