I. Origins1 In 1799, my great-great grandfather [surname?] was a chicken farmer in the town of Pushalot, in the state of Lithuania, in the Soviet Union. It was a hard life in the town of Pushalot. The winters were nine months long and unendurably cold. The summers were hot and rainy. There were occasional pogroms or Russian Cossaks rampaging through the streets terrorizing the countryside, gypsies stealing everything in sight, including sometimes even children, and always there was the threat of Siberia. My ancestors, like most Jews, were very poor, hard working and suffering. My greatgreat grandfather bought eggs from all the chicken farmers, packed them carefully on a wagon, covered them with straw to keep them cool and fresh and rode many miles to Kovna, Vilna and Riga to sell the eggs at the big city markets. In 1825, my great grandfather served as a rabbi in Pushalot. In 1872, my grandfather opened a kretchma in Pushalot. A kretchma is a Russian inn somewhat like out modern motels, only they didn’t have swimming pools or air conditioning. It was a place travelers could stop for food or drink or spend the night. One day a Bolshevik on horseback stopped at the Inn and drank a lot of vodka. He got fresh with my grandmother, who I understand was a good looking girl in those days. My father, a teenage boy, picked up a piece of stove wood, hit him on the head and knocked him out. That was an awful crime in Russia for a Jewish boy. My grandfather made a temporary settlement with the Russian and gave him 50 rubles. My father thought that they may send him to jail or Siberia, so he stole his way across the border into Germany. He didn’t like Germany, so he left Germany and made his way to South Africa. He went to work as a house painter in Johannesburg. He became ill from the lead poisoning in the paint. There were no United Way or Federate Jewish Charities down there, but someone took pity on him and nursed him back to health. He sold cigarettes and sandwiches at a stock exchange and he finally opened a resturant. 1 Cite reference �In 1898, right before the English-Boer War, my father sold his resturant for gold coins, got a money belt, and went down to Cape Town. He had a cousin in Australia and a brother in Jacksonville, Florida. By a flip of a coin he came over to Jacksonville, Florida. In Jacksonville, Florida, he went to night school to learn to read and write English. Just Think . . . “Just think,” said Leo Finkelstein, pawnbroker extraordinary, to the writer yesterday, “but for the fall of a coin ‘heads up’ in South Africa nearly fifty years ago, I would be selling kangaroos today in Australia.” We looked at Leo, who was giving such a strange answer to an ordinary question as to the state of business, but he seemed to be in good health and there was nothing in his manner to indicate a sudden stroke or something. Then he continued: “yessir, when my father (Harry L. Finkelstein) was a young man, and many years before I was born, he was in business at Johannesburg, South Africa. He had been in England and was getting tired of South Africa, so when an Englishman came along and gave him (my father) the choice of going to Australia with him, or of visiting the United States, my father tossed up an English shilling: ‘heads for America, tails for Australia’. It came down with heads up, and that is why I am running a poor man’s bank in Asheville, instead of being a kangaroo millionaire in Australia”. Then Leo added the information that his father never regretted the fact that the coin fell for America. “He often told me as a boy”, said the young man, “that he would rather live in Asheville than any place on earth”. -from unknown newspaper dated 1935 The History of Macy Meisal Slott’s Family As Told By The Patriarch Himself Just in case you don’t recognize me, I am your grandfather patriarch, Zaida Macy Meisal. Some of you are named after me: all the Miltons, Michaels, Morrises, Mays, Michels, Melvins and Matthews . . . All named after me, and I am flattered that your parents held my memory in such high regard. My wife was named Faga and all of you Fannies, Fagas, Florences, Frances were named after her. Our parents made the Chiddach between Faga and me before we ever met each other. Boy, were we scared! But, little by little we became acquainted and we had eight children, four boys and four girls. Our first born was a girl. We named her Michla. She married a man named Itzic Schemer and they had eight children, four boys and four girls, Michla and Itzic did not leave Pushalot, our home shtetl. But many of their children did go to America. I am flattered and delighted to see here tonight descendents of their sons, Berra Hirsha, Fivah, Helman, and Velval, and their daughters, Faga Cohen and Malcha Rose. . . Many of Michla’s family live in Jacksonville and are well known to each other. It is especially wonderful to see so many from out-of-town: form Texas, Faga’s children- Ben Cohen and his wife Marjorie, Ely Cohen and his daughter Sandra, Frank Cohen (Fort Worth’s 1975 Physician of the Year) and his wife Sara, daughters, Ann Prenovitz and husband Jacob of Boston, Sary Zimmerman and husband Raymond of Texas. . . Will you all stand so the eyes of Jacksonville can gaze into the eyes of Texas. More of Michla’s out of town family through son Helman, Ben Schemer and his wife Helen, Ft. Lauderdale, FL Willaim Schemer and his wife Val, �Miami. Through son Fivah, all from Miami, all from Miami, Maurice Schemer and his wife Dorothy, Stephen Schemer and his wife Esther, Isadore Schemer and his wife Laura, Fannie Siegel and her husband Irvin. Through son Berra Hirsha Dorothy Legum and husband Irving and son Terry, Richmond, VA. Lynn Legum from Philadelphia, PA, Cheryl Lebeau and husband Jerry, Atlanta, GA, Lee Shemer and wife Lil, Newport News, VA. Through son Helman, Barbara Zwerin and husband Harley, Clearwater, FL. Through daughter Malcha Rose, Etta Drashin and husband Bob, St. Augustine, FL. The oldest descendant here tonight is Minnie Morgenstern, 86, who just beat Max Rose, 85. Our second child was also a girl and we named her Etta. She married Yudi Carmel. They brought their three boys and three girls to America in 1899. All of my children were wonderful but my Etta was an exceptional person. She was the most unselfish, charitable, kindliest, energetic person of her time. She brought many of our family to America. She provided for them in every way until they could help themselves. She shared her worldly goods and love with everyone. She was a regular saint, you should pardon the expression. Children of her daughter, Esther who is 94 and living in Baltimore, and daughter Fannie, who just passed away at the age of 96 and children of her son Frank, have come a long way to be with us tonight. From VA, Macy Carmel and his wife Rose, Melvin Carmel and his wife Sylvia, Percy Carmel, Miriam Carmel, Harriet Kirsner, Mildred Fox, Louis Richman and his wife Tznia and their three daughters. Helda Kirsner from Charlotte, NC. From Baltimore, MD, Harriet Hackerman, Dolly Hackerman Asbell, Milton Hackerman and his wife Mildred. We don’t know exactly how Melvin and Kay Zweig of Chevy Chase, MD and Lester and Eileen Gordon of St. Petersburg, FL fit into the family. If they are not Michpaucha, we certainly wish they were. . . .Will all please stand. My next child was Rossa. She was married to Sarya Sherman, and they had five boys and two girls. Rossa’s children came to this country but Rossa passed away in Pushalot as a very young woman. From Hallandale, FL, Ruth (Cissy) Serman Levy who is the daughter of Rossa’s son Harry and Her Husband Sam is here representing that branch of our family..... Please stand. Our fourth child, finally we had an ingelleh and could make a Bris. We called him Itzic. He had two boys and two girls, all of them came to this country and the families of his sons Harry and Abe and daughters Malcha Kramer and Faga Foor are represented here this evening. Irvin Slott and wife Lois from Bethesda, MD. William Foor and wife Carol, Miami, FL. Elise Foor Haas, husband Frank, Boynton Beach, FL, Renee Slott Montaigne, son Jeffrey, Atlanta, GA. Dr. Marvin Slott, Gainesville, FL. Please stand. Our next daughter we named Miriam and she married Mayer David Cohen. My, was I proud to have a Cahan in the family. They had four boys and four girls, and all came to live in America. Some of their family live here in Jacksonville, and others have travelled thousands of miles.. Sadie Cohen and Florence Levin, Baltimore, MD. Dr. Eileen Cohen, PA. Bessie Cohen Eisenstat and husband Berry from Atlanta, GA. Carl Proser and his wife Helen from Greenville, SC. Helen Sloat Samuel, Sacramento, CA. Lisa Sloat, Miami, FL. Please stand. Then we had another boy and we named him Herschel. He called himself Harry, and �Harry was some sport. He took the last name of Goldman when he came to this country. Our name in the old country was Zloty. It is a Lithuanian coin made of gold. All of our family took the name of Slott to make it more acceptable in America, but Harry took the last name of Goldman, represented by the gold coin. He came to Jacksonville, in 1887 because there was another Pushaloter family here named Finkelstein but they are not Mishpocha, just Landsleit. He [Harry Goldman?] built a big business, was a city councilman and very active in the local community. He brought and helped to establish many of our family to Jacksonville. He had two boys and two girls. His reputation and accomplishments earned him recognition and biographical history is on record in the Florida Archives in the History of the State of Florida. Our next child was Lippa. He called himself Lippman Slott in America and had three boys and five girls and lived in Chicago where he established a meat packing business that his descendants still operate. Our last child was also a boy whom we named Shopsal. He was everyone’s favorite. He came to America but returned to Pushlot to be with Faga and me. I needed him in the business. It is touching to think that we perhaps have family who still live in Lithuania now and are not known to you in America or maybe only the ones who have survived are you in America. You must certainly count your blessings and bless the memory of your parents who had the initiative and gedult to leave the tiny, familiar world of Pushalot to risk their lives and future to establish a new life and hope in America. It was a hard life in Mein Shtetle Pushalot, in a country then called Litta or Lithuania to you. The winters were nine months long and unendurably cold. The summers were extremely hot and rainy. The Goyim barely tolerated us and there were occasional pogroms, or Russian Cossaks rampaging through the countryside or Tzygainer, gypsies stealing everything in sight including sometimes even children, and always there was the threat of Siberia. Like most Jews, we were very poor, hard-working and suffering. My business, I bought eggs from the chicken farmers and packed them carefully in my wagon, covered them with straw to keep them cool and fresh and rode many viorts, miles to you, to Kovna, Vilna, Ponivis, and once in a while to Riga, to sell eggs in the big city markets. I hated the long horse drawn wagon ride and hated being away from my Fagalaand Kinderlach all week from Monday to Friday and often what life would be like, if I were a rich man! But we had good times too in Pushalot. We went to schul a lot. The kinder went to Cheder a lot, our wives benched a lot, we blessed after each meal, we sang songs a lot, we had Bar Mitzvahs and we had weddings. I’ll never forget the Chasinah of our first daughter Michla. What a wedding! After that wedding did we have trouble with our next two daughters, Etta and Rossa. They were so jealous that Michlas had a husband, they nagged us to consult the Shotchun to negotiate a Shiddach for them. I immediately had to set aside the Nadan, the dowry for those two and consult with the Yenta. �But my children were restless. . . They had heard geshichtes about in America. The land of milk and honey with streets paved with gold. No risks seemed too great to escape the agony of serving in the army of the Russian Tzar or the pogroms of the Cossaks. They would not be denied. No obstacles were too great to stop them. . not even the forged visas, not leaving home in the night stealing across unpatrolled borders, enduring the forty-five days rough ocean voyage in steerage class, subsisting on salted herring and black bread to arrive in America. Here in the land of milk and honey. This is the land of milk and honey This is the land of sun and song, And this is a world of good and plenty, Humble and proud and young and strong, And, this is the place where the hopes of the homeless, And the dreams of the lost combine. And, this lovely land is yours and mine. So my children and their children came to America, destitute but determined. They tasted and endured the bitterness of poverty, desperation, and disappointment with dignity, spirit, hopefulness and perseverance to seize the opportunities and glory in the freedom of Columbus’ Medina. . .Our America! Not all of my children could have biographical histories of their lives published in the archives of records, but everyone of them, Michla, Etta, Rossa, Itzic, Miriam, Harry, Lippa, and Shopsal have their accomplishments and noble characteristics inscribed in the hearts of the families and friends whose lives they touched. I am going to fade out of your sight. . .and leave you with just your memories. . . Origins of the Pawnshop The Pawnshop was originated in China 3,000 years ago. established in Bavaria in 1557[?] legally adopted by France during the 18th century London became enchanted with the money-making plan a few years later and it wasn’t long before Pope Leo IX publicly expressed his approval. Five Brothers Finkelstein Five brothers came to the United states at the beginning of the 20th Century and opened pawnshops: Louis Finkelstein at Florence, SC Moe Finkelstein at Columbia, SC Chas. Finkelstein at Wilmington, SC Neal Finkelstein at Jacksonville, FL My father, Harry Finkelstein at Asheville, NC. II. The Dawn of the Twentieth Century in Asheville �In 1900, my father became ill and the doctor in Jacksonville told him the only place to go to get cured would be the mountains. He came up to Asheville, and Doctor Smith told him he would die of anything except what they sent him to Asheville for, so that he might as well go back to Jacksonville. He like Asheville so much he decided to stay here. In 1903, he opened a pawn shop at 23 South Main Street (now Biltmore Avenue). He married Fanny Sherman from Newport News, Virginia, and they made their home in an apartment on Ashland Avenue. In 1905, my father became a citizen of the United States. Among the organizations he joined were the Asheville Board of Trade (now The Asheville Chamber of Commerce), the Fraternal Order of Eagles, Suez Temple of the Oramatic Order of Khorosson, Lodge #1401 BPO, Elks, Mt. Herman Masonic Lodge, Scottish Rite Masonic Lodge, Oasis Temple of Shriners, Congregation Bikur Cholim (now Beth Isreal), and Congregation Betha-Ha-Tephila. So, in Asheville, North Carolina, the Twentieth Century began with: -The pawnbroker named Finkelstein. -S. H. Friedman, who operated a furniture store. He came to Asheville from Maryland, where he peddled tinware. His son, Nat Friedman, later operated the Susquehana Antique Co. -A Jewish lawyer by the name of Goldstein. -A Jewish plumber by the name of A.J. Huvard. He married E.C. Goldberg’s sister. E.C. Goldberg ran a news stand next to the Imperial Theater on Patton Avenue for years. -A Jewish dentist by the name of I. Mitchell Mann. -Harry Blomberg’s father who came to Asheville in 1887. He operated the Racket Store on Biltmore Avenue for many years. -The Palais Royal Department Store operated by Morris Meyers for 40 years. He was a charter member of Congregation Beth-Ha-Tephila and he came to Asheville in 1887. -The Bon Marche Department Store operated by Solomon Lipinsky. -A Jewish postman who delivered mail by the name of Barney Seigle. I was particularly interested in Barney because he had a sister by the name of Ester, who was in my class in high school — a beautiful and affectionate student. -An industrialist named Seigfred Sternberg. -Dan Michalove, who worked at the first movie houses in town and finally advanced to Vice-President of Paramount Pictures and was put in charge of all their theaters in Australia. -Lou Pollock, who operated a shoe store at the corner of South Main and Eagle Streets. He once ran a shoe sale for $.98 a pair. -Leo Cadison, who came here for his health, operated a ladies clothing store on Pack Square, finally moved to Washington, D.C., and became an attorney by act of Congress. He was a speech writer for the Attorrney General of the United States. -An orthodox Rabbi by the name of Londow. -Morris Myers served as Exalted Ruler of the Old Elks Lodge #608. �In 1883 Jews were arriving to become pioneers in the Asheville community. Some came to make a better livelihood and for opportunity. The moderate climate and mountain air attracted others to Asheville, a growing medical haven for the sufferers of chronic respiratory diseases. Congregation Beth-Ha-Tephila August 23, 1891, twenty-seven men met in Lyceum Hall and adopted a constitution for Congregation Beth-Ha-Tephila. Among the charter members were the Blomberg, Lipinsky, and Zagier families. It is noted that the dues were $10 a year, payable in advance. Lyceum Hall was the first home of the Congregation. It was rented from a fraternal order for $75 a year. Congregation Bikur Cholim Rabbi Londow became the rabbi for Congregation Bikur Cholim whose articles of incorporation were filed in the Court Clerk’s office in February 1899. The incorporators were J.B. Schwartzberg, A. Blomberg, Sam Feinstein, S.H. Michalove, A. Shenbaum, M. Zuglier, and R.B. Zagier. Since the community could not pay Rabbi Londow a decent wage, he operated a Jewish grocery store on the side. He was a kindly old gentleman with a big beard, wore his hat around the grocery store at all times except when a lady called him on the telephone. He would remove the hat during the conversation and put it back on his head after the phone call. I remember a big barrel of herring in the center of the store. Plain herring were 5 cents each and milk herring ten cents. A newly married lady in the Congregation once called Rabbi Londow and complained that a duck she bought from him was old and too tough to eat. Rabbi Londow asked what she expected him to do --- look down the duck’s mouth and count its teeth! The first religious services of Bikur Cholim I remember attending were on the second floor of a building at the corner of Patton Avenue and Church Street. It was early in the life of Bikur Cholim that the congregation split up due to a big argument. Half of the members formed another congregation and called it Anshei Hashuron. They rented a second floor of an apartment house at the corner of Central Avenue and Woodfin Street. However, through the efforts of the impartial moderates, a compromise was reached and a permanent division averted. Nevertheless, the apartment was kept for a religious school. It was here I received my first Hebrew lesson. Rabbi Fox was teaching us the four questions to ask at our Passover meal. At this time my father would attend all the board meetings of Bikur Cholim. He would come home upset and nervous. Dr. Smith suggested he not attend any more Synagogue meetings due to his high blood pressure. Rabbi Fox was active on the 9th and 10th degrees of Scottish Rite Masonry. After his death I assumed his parts in these degrees and I am still on the degree teams. �Orthodox rules and Hebrew School 75 to 100 years ago there were two synagogues in Asheville. My family belonged to the orthodox. The orthodox had strict rules for obeying the Sabbath which began Friday at sundown and ended Saturday night. The members of Bikur Cholim who owned an automobile would put them in the garage on Friday evening to observe the Sabbath and wouldn’t take them out until Saturday after sun down. Most of the members lived within walking distance of the Synagogue. To obey the Sabbath correctly you were not allowed to operate a business, spend money, smoke, strike a match, work, cook and many other activities were forbidden. Remember this was about 100 years ago. You weren’t supposed to tear paper. Now if you had a bathroom with paper on a roll, you tore the paper off for Friday in case it may be needed for the Sabbath. The same rule applies to outhouses with old Sears Roebuck catalogues. As far as I know none of these rules are observed today. In 1911, erection of a house of worship was started on South Liberty Street for Congregation Bikur Cholin. Although it wasn’t completed until 1916, the Hebrew School moved there in 1912. When I was 11 years old I attended Hebrew school conducted by the rabbi on Saturday morning in the edifice of the synagogue. The sanctuary contained nothing but pews and a coal stove for heat. The basement was used for storage and rest rooms. In the winter time the rabbi fixed the stove for a fire Friday so that it could be lit Saturday morning to produce heat for the Hebrew class. Since the rabbi shouldn’t light a fire or spend money on the Sabbath, he arranged for a boy in the neighborhood to light the fire Saturday morning. He placed a dime under a prayer book Friday and told the boy where to get a dime after lighting the fire on Saturday. Even in those days educational institutions had trouble with rebelling students. One real cold morning the boy didn’t show up to light the fire. We were attending Hebrew class in sweaters, coats and overcoats and it was awful cold. I asked to be excused and coming up from the basement I reported to Rabbi Redunsky that the plumbing must have frozen as there was water leaking in several places. The Rabbi went to see about it. I advised the class that there were no broken pipes and suggested that we leave the building --- which we did --- not to return until warm weather. For your information, there was no water leaking. While my sisters Rosa and Hilda and I were still children and our parents were out of town for health reasons, Doctor Schandler’s father Dave Schandler, would invite us over to his house for meals, especially on Passover and other religious holy days. About this time when our house at 213 Broadway was being built, I was sliding down a �sloping board and got a big splinter in my rear end. My father couldn’t get it out so he took me to Dr. Mann, the dentist, and he got it out --- no charge. The building of the Synagogue was completed in 1916 and the day before the eve of Rosh-Hashonah a fire completely destroyed the building. Mrs. Rosenfeld had a Jewish Boarding House next door and she cried and complained that she had just cleaned her house for Yontiff and smoke had dirtied the place up. The Masonic Temple was offered to us to use for the High Holy Day Services and we accepted. After the fire that destroyed Bikur Cholim Synagogue on South Liberty Street the second floor of the Sondley Building on Broadway was rented for the use of the congregation. A member of the congregation, a young man, forgot he had made a date with a waitress in the Langren Hotel and attended the meeting of the congregation. The lady waited in front of the Masonic Temple with a gun and took a shot at him after the meeting when he was leaving the building. She missed. After going to Hebrew School in the building we would stop and examine the hole the bullet made in the front wall of the building. The Cemetery In those days Asheville was a place that offered a cure for tuberculosis. Many sanatoriums were located in the hills around town. A Jewish man died in one of the sanatoriums and had no money or family. No cemetery in town would bury him unless someone paid $100 for the grave. It was then that nine Jewish men formed the “West Asheville Hebrew Cemetery Association Inc.” My father was the first president. In their bylaws it was stated that anyone of Jewish faith could be buried there. The price of a grave was $100 and if there was no one to pay it there would be no charge. The cemetery changed it’s name some years later to “Mt. Sinai Cemetery” and sometime after to “The Lou Pollock Memorial Park.” After father died, Lou Pollock became president. After his death, I was the vice-president and assumed the duties of the president. I conferred with David Adler and set up a meeting between the directors of the cemetery and members of Beth Israel. The ownership of the cemetery was transferred to Beth Israel. The following names of the nine founders can be seen on a plaque at the entrance to the cemetery bearing the date 1916: Sam Feinstein, Isaac Michalove, Lou Pollock, S.W. Silverman, Sender Argentar, Rabbi Elias Fox, Dave Schundler, Barney Pearlman, Harry Finkelstein. Benevolent Societies Around this time my father felt that some homemade chicken soup would help the Jewish patients in the sanatoriums. A number of Jewish women set up a kitchen and once a week hot chicken soup was made available to the Jewish patients and to others who requested it. Rabbi Fox acquired business interests in Asheville and served as part-time Rabbi. He was associated with a local butcher who made kosher meat available. He would go by the homes of members and kill the chickens. In 1917, some of us young Jewish boys decided that we ought to have a YMHA or a Community Center in Asheville. Rabbi Fox met with us and suggested that we form a YMHA. �He said a community center was for the community only, but a bigger and better organization would be a YMHA because it extended from coast to coast. He told us a story about when he first came to this country and wanted to see the Brooklyn Bridge. He found a man who could talk Yiddish and after looking at the bridge he asked why they built the bridge with a lot of little cables instead of one big cable. The man explained to him that if one or two cables broke it would not harm the bridge, but if there was one big cable and it broke the bridge would fall in. Rabbi Fox said that therefore us boys should be little cables and hold up the YMHA we were going to form. Mr. Sternberg and Mr. Leavitt Seventy-five years ago there was no United Way in Asheville. There were many local charitable organizations sponsored by churches, synagogues, houses of worship, also the YMCA, the Salvation Army, the Elks Lodge and the Jewish Ladies Aid Society. Lion Joe Sternberg’s father was active in civic, religious, fraternal organizations in Asheville. At that time he was collecting donations for the “Ladies Aid Society” of Asheville. He went to see Mr. Leavitt who operated a ladies ready to wear store on South Main St. near Pack Square. He wouldn’t donate more than $5 and this didn’t please Mr. Sternberg. Mr. Sternberg was the owner of the building in which Mr. Leavitt operated his store. He found Mr. Leavitt violated the terms of his lease because he sublet a portion of the store for a shoe department. Mr. Sternberg told Mr. Leavitt that he would have to give the Ladies Aid Society a suitable donation or vacate the building because he had violated the terms of the lease. They selected three men to determine what amount Mr. Leavitt should give the Ladies Aid Society. It was agreed that the amount they decided would be satisfactory to Mr. Sternberg and Mr. Leavitt. Mr. Sternberg selected a man to represent himself. Also Mr. Leavitt picked out the second man. They needed a man to represent both of them and finally selected my father. The committee decided that Mr. Leavitt should donate $500 to the Ladies Aid Society. ------ In 1936, the movements in founding a Jewish Community Center and to organize Federated Jewish Charities in Asheville was started by Julius Levitch through B’nai B’rith. In 1947 a testimonial dinner was held for his outstanding service to the Jewish Community. ----- On July 25, 1923, the Emporium Department Store owned by Jack Blomberg at the corner of Pack Square and South Main Street was destroyed by a major fire. It was feared that the entire block of Eagle Street would be destroyed. Many of the Jewish merchants who operated clothing stores in the block brought their insurance polices and books to the pawnshop across the street and requested that we put them in our safes which were two of the largest moveable safes in town. These two safes are now located at 21 Broadway. My father and the Sheriff’s Department In the early days of the century, my father would give each member of the Buncombe County Sheriff’s department cuff links for a Christmas present. In appreciation, the Sheriff would always send my father a gallon of corn whiskey. We �always thanked the Sheriff for his gift even though none of my family drank corn whiskey. Flanders 20 About 75 years ago the Studebaker Corporation made two automobiles - the Flanders 20, 20 horsepower and the Emf. 30, 30 horsepower. My family owned a Flanders 20. To start the engine you used a hand crank in front of the auto. You lowered the spark control lever because if you didn’t, you might get a kickback on the crank and get your arm broken. If you had a flat tire, you had to raise the wheel with a hand jack, take the tire off and fix the inner tube with patches that you always carried with you. You had a hand pump to inflate the tire again. Some owners of the Flanders 20 bragged that sometimes they could drive up the hill on South Main Street (now Biltmore Ave.) from Depot St. to Pack Square in high gear and they didn’t have to shift to a second gear. There was a dirt road to Hendersonville. Some of it was red clay that would become slick when it rained. One small section of the road became very slick due to its location. There was a man there with a mule. For a small fee he would hitch the mule to the front of the auto and pull you out of the bad place with the help of the engine of the car. We were invited to a wedding in Hendersonville by Mr. Lewis whose sister, Rose, was getting married to a young attorney named Joe Patece. He practiced law in Asheville for many years. We took our Flanders 20 to the wedding with a couple of our friends. We had no trouble as it didn’t rain. Coming back to Asheville we got a flat tire near Skyland and stopped to fix it. We noticed a lot of berries growing near the road and we all began to eat them. A farmer saw us and accused us of stealing his berries. He took out a warrant for my father. The trial was to be heard by a Justice of Peace in Skyland. My father employed a young lawyer by the name of Bob Reynolds. Bob Reynolds in later years became a U.S. Senator. The Justice of Peace office was too small to hold the crowd that came to the trial so it was held under a large oak tree outdoors. I heard that Bob gave a great speech to the crowd and the Justice of the Peace ordered my father just to pay the farmer a small amount for the berries. The moral of this event is: Don’t eat wild berries beside an old road. You are liable to have more troubles than a stomach ache. Beginning to work When I was eight years old, I started selling newspapers. I wasn’t doing very good so my father gave me job in the pawnshop at 50 cents per week. I had to save 25 cents of it. I was to work when there was no school activity or important events pertaining to my education. I was given Saturday afternoon off to go fishing and Saturday morning to see a serial movie at the �Galaxy movie house on pack square. Many people left their musical instruments as collateral for loans I tried out my musical ability on a guitar, a ukulele, a violin and a saxophone. I took violin lessons from Mr. Popatards, piano lessons from Mrs. Cliphant. My mother insisted that I practice on the piano one hour a day. School In 1911, I started school at Montford Avenue Grammar School. In 1922, I went to UNC-Chapel Hill for 2 days, and had to come home to run the pawnshop. In the February 1922 graduating class in Asheville High School, there were 5 boys and 14 girls. Therefore, each boy was expected to take 3 girls to the Senior Class Dance of February 1922. Things were better when we had a dance for the entire school. There were three Jewish girls in the total 1922 class — Madeline Blomberg, Eva Sternberg, and Ester Seigle. I was the only student to take an automobile to school in 1922. It was a Paige make with a “bathtub back” model. I was the business manager of the “Hillbilly,” the school monthly magazine. I was given any study hall period off that I wanted to collect for ads that appeared in the magazine, so I would take my auto and a girl to help me from the study hall. After collecting for one ad we would ride over to the Charlotte Street Drug Store and participate in ice cream sodas for the balance of the study hall period. Asheville Dixie Jazz Band In 1921, Jr and a violin player from Lewis Funeral Home, Frank McCormiak, formed the first musical outfit Asheville High School ever had. Below is a poem from an issue of the 1921 school paper, “The Hillbilly.” The Dixie Jazz Band Boys and girls, have you heard the news, A new way to get lively without any booze, Just come around and give us your hand, We’re the members of the “Dixie Jazz Band.” We play and play and never get weary, We’ll jazz you up and make you cherry, We’ll make you dance and never set still You’ll have to shimmy, against your will The drummer is a drummer by trade, The fiddler is a musician, self-made, The flute is the best you’ve ever heard, The mandolin sounds like a mocking bird. Leo Finkelstein �Pisgah 1922 In reporting from my historical records on Lion Joe Sternberg, president of our club in 1960-61, I’ve talked about his father, old man Sternberg and Joe’s sister, Eva. I reported that Lion Joe and I were seniors in the 1922 class of Asheville High School. Now, Lion Joe’s mother, Mrs. Sternberg, phoned me and advised me that she was entertaining Joe and three other members of the 1922 class with a trip to the top of Mt. Pisgah. Eva graduated in 1921 but wanted to go with them. Her mother asked if I would like to go and look after Eva if she went, and I told her that I would be delighted. They all picked me up the next morning and Mrs. Sternberg drove us to the home of Mr. & Mrs. Rufus O’Kelly who lived at the base of Mt. Pisgah in her 7 passenger Mormon automobile. We had lunch of possum and sweet potatoes. There was one dirt road (one way) to the top of Mt. Pisgah, 5 miles long. An auto had to go up in the morning at daylight and was allowed to come down after 1 PM until dark. We hiked to a cleared section. Mr. O’Kelly chaperoned the trip and built us a large bonfire and was fixing something to eat. Eva was unpacking some things and I noticed a large bottle of Bromo-Seltzer. I asked if she expected someone to have a headache. She said, “No, I opened a pint bottle of father’s bottled whiskey, took half of it and filled the Bromo-Seltzer bottle. Now you and I can have a drink before we eat.” “That’s a good idea,” I said, “but what is your father going to say when he finds out?” She said, “no problem. I filled the empty half of the whiskey bottle with water.” At nighttime she and I sat around the fire drinking a few drinks of Bromo-Seltzer. ----- On Sundays in 1925, the Jewish crowd of teenagers and somewhat older boys and girls would gather at the home of the Sternbergs on Victoria Road. The Sternbergs had four children: Eva, Joe, Johanna, and Rose. One of the older girls in the crowd was named Jennie. One day I asked her how she managed to be so popular among the boys, and her answer was, “Well, I’m not so pretty, but I’m catchie”. ----- I dated Eva and one night I called at the house to take her out and her father yelled to us from the second floor of the house “Don’t you go to no road houses,” and Eva replied “What’s the matter papa --- you afraid we are going to find you there!” William Jennings Bryan On July 7, 1896, William Jennings Bryan delivered the “Cross of Gold” speech and won the Democratic party nomination for Vice President of the United States. In 1900 he was nominated again for Vice President. In 1908 he was nominated for President of the United States. Later in life he moved to Asheville and his home was at the corner of Evelyn place and Kimberly Avenue--just a few houses away from where Lion Jack Cole now lives. �Mr. Bryan asked by father to order him a special made double barrel Parker shot gun with 28" barrels modified and choke bores, and a 23/4 inch drop. After receiving the gun he wrote my father a letter of thanks. I had this letter in my historical files and it disappeared. Now I don’t know whether to blame it on the Democrats or Republicans. The Emporium Fire of 1923 On July 25, 1923, the Emporium Department store owned by Jack Blomberg at the corner of Pack Square and South Main Street was destroyed by a major fire. It was feared that the entire block of South Main Street (Biltmore Avenue) would be destroyed Many of the merchants who operated clothing stores in the block brought their insurance policies and books to Finkelstein ‘s pawnshop across the street and requested that we put them in our safes which were two of the largest moveable safes in town. The two safes are now located at 21 Broadway. Sewing Machine Mystery A sewing machine was brought in for a loan. The next day some ladies from a church walked in from a church society identified the machine and claimed it had been stolen from the church. The pawn ticket was hunted. “What’s the name on the record?” one of the women inquired. It was read off. “What!” Shrieked the group in unison. “That’s the name of our pastor!” And, the mystery was cleared up. The fact that someone else had pawned the machine giving the reverend’s name. III. Asheville in the 1930's Lions Club I remember when I became a member of the Asheville Lions Club in 1930. The club had 16 members and I was the 17th. Our meetings were held at the S.W. Cafeteria on Patton Ave. In a meeting room on the second floor. A good meal could be had at a cost of less than one dollar. I remember when the club’s membership reached 100 held a stag party at the ski club on top of Beaucatcher Mountain. Out of 100 members we had 97 attend. Three were absent on account of being out of town The club was operated by Boyd and Albertine Maxwell and their daughter was the hostess Albertine was a professional dancer and she did a ‘snake dance’ to entertain the party. Lion Dan Furr fixed us a special drink consisting of a assortment of fluids that we called “Scrape the bottom.” We had a big spaghetti dinner. The cast of the evening was $1.50 per member. The young lady who was hostess, in appreciation of me bringing the Lions Club there for a party, taught me to dance the “Charleston,” a new dance that had just started. I remember when I drove my new automobile to the Stag Party with Lion John Thayer. The automobile was an Terraplane Sedan that Lion Johnnie Groome sold me. It had an electric �gear shift controlled by buttons on the steering wheel. It also had a stick shift in front of the center of the front seat that could be used when the electric shift failed to work. Going down Beaucater Mountain in the Terraplain, Lion John Thayer who had drank a substantial amount of Scrape the bottom,” acted funny, yanked the gear shift stick loose and threw it out of the car into the woods of Beaucatcher mountain. The next day Lion John and I searched the woods, found the stick shift and replaced it. I remember when the club held a “womanless wedding” at a Ladies Night Banquet March 14, 1939 and Lion Dan Furr was the flower girl. I remember when in 1939 the club presented a pair of lions to the city zoo and a few weeks later a baby lion was born. It was named “Leo.” I remember when an alarm clock was placed at the speaker’s table at the club meetings set to alarm at 2 o’clock with a sign: OUR MEETING CLOSES A 2 O’CLOCK AND WE DO NOT APPRECIATE DIRTY JOKES. I remember when Jack Cole was president of the Asheville Lions Club. We held a ladies night banquet at the Battery Park Hotel. Lion Jack invited a U.S. Congressman, Lion Roy Taylor, to make a talk for the gathering. It took Lion Jack 20 minutes to introduce Congressman Taylor. Roy Taylor in response said that there must be a mistake. “It looks like Lion Jack Cole was to give the address and I should have introduced him.” I remember when City Manager Burdette announced to City Council that the police department’s new traffic bureau will begin operating and that ordinances will be strictly enforced. Mr. Burdette left no doubt in the minds of a Lion’s Club committee who called to complain about the parking problem. I remember when Lion Joe Dave announced that the club delivered five pigs to the Candler Pig Club in connection with the Chamber of Commerce’s plan for improvement of water in North Carolina’s livestock through cooperation of civic clubs. I remember when in 1938 at a Lions Club golf Tournament I promised to give a prize for the winner of the first flight. I wrote a check for $1,000 and since I won the first flight, I presented the check to myself. I remember when Lion Roy Phillips, advertising director of the Asheville Citizen-Times talked to me as President of the Lion’s Club and wanted the Club to sponsor a Turtle Race and buy a page ad in the newspaper. I told him to present it to the board of directors that I wouldn’t take the responsibility of investing in a turtle race. He told me I couldn’t be a good president of the club and let grass grow under my feet. I told him that he wasn’t talking to one of his advertising salesman that he was talking to me as President of the club and if he wanted a turtle race to present it to the board of directors at their regular meeting. There was no turtle race. I remember when I was dating a nice young lady in Asheville by the name of Pearl. Pearl was hostess in a restaurant I used to eat at. The Lions Club was giving a Ladies Night �dinner and Governor Hoey was to be our speaker. I was told that I couldn’t bring Pearl. Governor Hoey’s daughter was coming to the dinner and I’d have to set with her at the speaker’s table. It was an uneventful monotonous dinner and when it was over I told the governor’s daughter good night and I went to see Pearl. I remember when a member missed over two meetings Lion Charles Berryman who operated a funeral home would send his ambulance to bring the member to the meeting. I remember when a member missed over three meetings without an excuse. Lion Judge Sam Cathey would send a police car to present the member with the following summons: [City of Asheville etc etc] I remember when I had a phone call from my golf caddie named “Cris” on a Saturday and advised me that Lion Judge Cathey had given him 30 days in jail for fighting and that he wouldn’t be able to caddie for me Sunday. That was a disaster for without “Cris” I just couldn’t play a good game of golf. I called Lion Judge Cathey and advised him of the situation and he told me he would reduce Cris’s sentence from 30 days to one day and for me to go down to the jail and get him. I remember when I was invited to Lioness Hudson’s house for Thanksgiving dinner. She called me the day before and said that Lion Judge Cathey had put her cook in jail and she had no one to cook the dinner. I called Lion Judge Cathey again and told him about it. He arranged for Lion Hudson’s cook to cook over Thanksgiving dinner. I remember when Lion Judge Cathey was named the National Handicap Man of the Year and several of us Lions went to Washington with him receive the award from President Eisenhower. I remember when mimic political campaign speeches by members of the Lions Club were featured at the S.W. Cafeteria during their meeting. In the comic program, four members representing four political parties made “pleas” for support of their candidates for president. Lion Schorr urged the club to vote for Herbert Hoover, Lion Roy Phillips upheld Franklin D. Roosevelt, Lion Nat Friedman asked that William D. Upshaw be given the club’s support and I talked at length on Norman Thomas, socialist candidate. I remember when Lion Dan Stewart, Lion Charlie Miller and I went to Havana, Cuba for an International Convention. We drove to Miami and took the boat to Havana. After the convention - trying to get back to Miami we found it was going to be three days before we could get passage on the boat. I didn’t want to wait three days in Havana so I phoned my girl friend Reggie who was secretary to the Mayor of Miami Beach. She told me she would take care of the situation and for me to go down to the boat office and they would give me passage on the next boat to Miami. She told the boat office they needed me as a witness in a court case, so I spent the night in a big chair in the lounge of the boat that night going to Miami. Reggie and I met Lion Stewart and Lion Ch. Miller in a couple of days and took them fishing. �I remember when on July 10, 1940 the Lions club held a meeting which was described by Lion C.E. Hudson as “in truth the most gratifying gathering of all times in Asheville, of its kind.” It was described by the Asheville Citizen as the largest and most representative civic organization gathering in Asheville in recent years. It was an inter-club banquet and first annual award of the Asheville Lions Club to the most useful civic club member in the city of Asheville, 1939-1940. The idea of this banquet was presented to the Civic Club Union by Lion Jim Divelbiss and myself. They assisted the Lions Club and picked Robert Lee Ellis of the Coca-Cola bottling Company as Asheville’s most useful civic club member in the 1939-40 year. He received a bronze plaque from the Lions Club which he said he would cherish as long as he lived. More than 300 persons representing every civic organization in the city attended the banquet at the Battery Park Hotel. I got Gov. Sholtz of Flirda to make the principal address . Prohibition’s Waning Days It was in 1933, after Franklin Roosevelt was elected president of the United States, that the Volstead Act was repealed and it became legal to sell beer with an alcoholic content on October 1st. I was president of a mens social club, and it became my duty to get beer to serve to the members. This was a difficult job as none was available from distributors around Asheville. 1933 was the year of the Great Depression and Rabbi Goodkowitz bought a second hand truck from Harry Blomberg and was doing some hauling on the side to supplement his income from Bikur - Cholim. Rabbi Goodkowitz said he would go to Baltimore and get us a load of beer as he personally knew the owner of the Valley Forge Beer Company there. I gave him six hundred dollars of the club’s money and he left on a Monday to be back on Thursday. He didn’t show up, but came in the following Monday. The delay was due to the truck breaking down on the trip. Of course I was somewhat concerned but the club had a truck load of Valley Forge Beer available. Leo Cadison saw me and advised that he had talked to the United States Senator Robert R. Reynolds, and the members were starting a campaign to sell the beer before October lst. Captain Fred Jones of the Asheville Police Department and a member of the house committee said he would not recommend selling it before the legal date. At the club that week, I noted about 150 members were present instead of the usual 40. Under “good and welfare” Senator Reynolds, a great orator, spoke in favor of selling the beer and said that we were all brothers in a non-profit and charitable organization, and it would be legal to sell it. Others who spoke in favor of selling the beer were Judge Philip Cocke, State Senator; A. Hall Johnson, Superior Court Judge; Dan Hill, Postmaster; Marcus Erwin, U.S.Attorney; Zeb Mettles, Superior Court Judge; Charles McRae, local attorney; and Leo Cadison. Leo Cadison made a motion that we advise the House Manager to put the beer on ice so that we could drink it after the meting. I advised Mr. Cadison that I could not accept a motion �of an illegal nature but under Robert’s Rules of Parliamentary procedure he could appeal my decision. He appealed and I advised that the question to be voted on would be “Shall the decision of the chair stand” and there would be no discussion. The vote was unanimous against my decision (which suited me) and I instructed the secretary to take everything out of the minutes pertaining to beer, also to advise the house manager to put the beer on ice so we could have it after the meeting. He said that it was too late to advise him because the beer had been on ice for the past two hours. How to Finance a Pawnshop in a Depression It was the Depression of the 1930's. Our loans averaged $10 and we made them as low as 50 cents. The demand was great on loans on diamonds and jewelry. The top loan on a ½ carat diamond was $50 and $200 on a good grade carat. I was running out of money. I saw Perry at the Morris Plan Bank and we agreed to rent a lock box at the Wachovia Bank. Both of us would have a key to it. I would hypothecate the large size diamond and jewelry loans. The ways that worked is I would make the loan, get the cash from Perry on a 90 day note, and put the jewelry in the lock box as security. If the customer came to redeem his jewelry I advised him that jewelry was at the vault at the Wachovia for safekeeping and I would get it for him. This was working very well as the bank was making the legal rate of 6% on 90 day notes which were paid in 30 to 40 days with no refund for unearned interest. I was doing OK also. I charged interest at legal rates plus other expenses incident to the negotiations of the transactions. Then Mr. Wolcott comes to town. He took over the Morris Plan Bank and organized the Bank of Asheville. Perry, the new cashier at the Bank of Asheville, came to see me and said, “Mr. Wolcott advised that the bank wasn’t a pawnshop and to tell Finkelstein to pay off those 90 day notes.” It looked like I was going to have to stop making large jewelry loans and try to meet the 90 day note. But a miracle happened. A girlfriend of mine in the 1922 class of Asheville High School married a man from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, who later committed suicide. She came back to Asheville to live. She saw me and wanted to know if I could help her out. She said she was left a sizeable amount of life insurance and did I know of a safe place where she could invest some of it and get a decent return. I helped her out. Police Chief Beavers On the program of the Asheville Lions Club on July 8, 1992, Chief of Police Beavers talked about prostitution in Asheville and how the APD was trying to cut the activity down. I believe there may be a better way to cut the activity down. In the year 1900 Asheville had a population of 14,694. My historical records indicate at that time the red light district was known as the Eagle Terrace and was operated by a lady known �as “Queen Elizabeth.” There were no problems. The Banov family in Charleston, SC, are part of my kin folks. Doctor Banov was a health physician for Charleston County, SC for 35 years. That was the longest any county health physician stayed in office. In talking to him I found out that the red light district in Charleston, SC, was a large house known as the “Red Brick” on Bensford St. The prostitutes had to have a health certificate from a local doctor renewed every 90 days, frame it, and hang it on the wall by her bed. They had Police Protection. In 1933 I was president of a fraternal order in Asheville. I had a good friend, Lt. Frank Hagan of the local police dept. who was also a member. We decided to drive down to Charleston, SC, for a convention. While in Charleston he said that he would like to go to the “Red Brick” on Bensford Street and get information for the Asheville Police Dept. on how they operated. I asked him how he expected to get in the place. He said “Don’t worry, I’ll get us admitted.” We went down to the “Red Brick” and Frank knocked on the front door. A lady opened a peephole in the door to look at us and Frank said “Back again.” We were then admitted to a large living room with red curtains. We picked out two of the girls in the living room and invited them to have a seat with us and have a drink. The only drink available was a coca-cola and the cost was 25 cents per drink. We asked them if their services would be available to members of a convention and they said that they were. The cost of a short stay would be $3 and for $5 a client could spend the night. I gave the girls $3 each and advised them that all we wanted to do was talk and get information for the convention - they were completely satisfied. Now why don’t we get Chief Beavers to get someone like “Queen Elizabeth” to rent a place like a small hotel, or a large home with red curtains, or a place suitable for a whorehouse like the “Red Brick” in Charleston, SC. Serve soft drinks and ice cream at reasonable prices and furnish police protection. He might even get Lion Penland and me to open a pawnshop next door so that if a man didn’t have enough money to finance his trip to the place, he could pawn his watch or his gun. Don’t think all this would be legal, but its a thought anyway. Streetwalking A young lady friend of my family would pawn a diamond pen for $50.00. She was always months past due on the redemption of it. I felt sorry for her and I didn’t let her pay any interest or charges on any loan after her first loan. After pawning it several times, she came in for a loan on the pen. She asked for one hundred dollars. I told her that a hundred dollars was more than we could loan on it, that I would loan her $50.00 again. She said that she needed a hundred dollars and what was I trying to do, make a “street walker” out of her! �The Preacher and the Bible I helped a preacher financially conduct his Sunday’s services. Back in the depression days of the 1930s there was a preacher who pawned his Bible every Monday morning after Sunday’s services and redeemed it on the following Friday or Saturday for the next service on Sunday. I made the original loan of $10 and advised the preacher that he could get it out at a charge of $1 anytime in 30 days or if needed he could wait three months at no additional charge. In checking the records I found that he had pawned the Bible weekly on many occasions. On the next Friday morning when he came after his Bible I told him he didn’t owe anything on it that he had paid more carrying charges that the original loan. I told him to put that $10 bill he had next to the Ten Commandments in the Bible and the next time he needed $10 to take it out and put it back in the Bible after Sunday’s service. Just don’t bring the Bible back here for a loan. He didn’t. John I had a black man working for me by the name of “John”. There were street cars available to ride from his home to work. I was a law in Asheville that blacks had to ride in the back seats of the street car and the whites rode in the front seats. One day “John”n was riding in a front seat and wouldn’t move to the back of the bus. He was arrested by the Asheville Police Department. I sent my lawyer, Mr. Fortune, to the police court with him and he was fined the costs of the case. A man redeemed a large size radio he pawned. After taking it home he advised us that three of the tubes were missing. “John” kept the storage room where radio pledges were stored. I sent a police detective to John’s home advising him of the situation. He checked the numbers on John’s radio tubes and told “John” that the numbers on his radio tubes were the same as the numbers that were on the missing tubes of our customer’s radio. John admitted stealing the tubes. We supplied new tubes for our customer’s radio. “John was fired from his job at the pawnshop. I understood that he kept his usual custom of delivering sermons at his church on Sundays. I wanted to replace “John” so an employment agency sent me a young man named “George”. I put George in the storage area for guns that were left as collateral on loans. He stole a pistol and after an investigation, he returned it and I fired him. Overcoats During the depression of 1933 the pawnshop had 800 overcoats left at the beginning of the summer. The loans were from $3 to $7 each, and 80% of the loans were past due. There was a problem of moths. We put mothballs in the pockets of all overcoats and sprayed them with DDT. After the overcoats became more than 3 months past due we had them dry cleaned. We made a contract with the cleaners to pick up and return lots of twenty at 50 cents each. The owner of the cleaning company came in the shop and said that he wanted to buy an overcoat for his chauffeur. He tried on one and liked it so much that he said he would keep it for himself and give his to his chauffeur. �It was during 1933 that we had only male clerks working in the pawnshop. There were days when my father and I were both absent from the pawnshop due to health and other reasons. When the overcoat pledges were past due and ready for the cleaners they were hung in a room on the second floor of the pawnshop. Sometimes I would notice a couple of overcoats on the floor of the pawnshop. The electric lights went out on the second floor where the overcoats were. An electrician was called to correct the trouble. It was found that the clerks would invite street walkers to come up to the room at times when my father and I were absent. The electrician found a hole in the floor where the wires were broken. In fixing the broken wires, he pulled about 50 dirty handkerchiefs and other items that caused the trouble. Murders in Pawnshops and Helping Sheriff L. Brown You have probably read in the Citizen-Times about Mark Lane who was killed in a shooting during an armed robbery. His father, Ronald Lane, and he were co-owners of the Leicester Pawn Shop. In a former historical report I talked about Reggie, secretary to the Mayor of Miami Beach, who helped our delegation get faster transportation back to Florida from the International Lions Convention in Havana, Cuba. Lion C.A. Miller was on that trip. Later Reggie’s brother was killed in a holdup in his pawnshop on Flager Street in Miami. A lot of people classify a pawnbroker as a shylock. Those pawnbrokers I have known are kind people and are a asset to any community they operate in. Of course you can exclude me. In November 1934 Sheriff Lawrence Brown of Buncombe County came to see me and said that he needed help. Beacon Manufacturing Company at Swannanoa was having labor trouble and a group from South Carolina was coming up to prevent the employees from going to work. He wanted to rent twenty 12 gauge shotguns to be used by special deputies to guard the entrance to the plant. I rented him twenty 12 gauge Harrington, Richardson shotguns for $1 each. He was successful in guarding the plant and they never fired a shot. The sheriff phoned me and said that he wanted to bestow upon me the honor of being a deputy sheriff and to come over and bring a photo for an identification card. I told him I didn’t know anything about enforcing the law. He said that was okay, to come over and he would swear me in and take out insurance on me. I asked him if it was life insurance. He said, “No, it was liability insurance and if I did anything wrong as a deputy sheriff that they would furnish me legal assistance in court.” I was sworn in November 15, 1934. I got a phone call the next morning from Mr. Seely, Manager of the Grove Park Inn. He said that he needed a gun for his watchman, a 38 Saturday Night Special with a 4" barrel. Sheriff Brown told him I could supply what he wanted. I told him I had it in stock and he asked me to bring it out to the Inn. I got in my dilapidated Ford touring car, drove to the front entrance �of the Inn and started to go in, when the Bell Captain stopped me. He asked “What are you doing here?” I replied “I have a gun for your watchman and Mr. Seely asked me to bring it out to him.” “Well,” he said, “you take that gun to the back door. They have a barrel of money back there and they will pay you for it.” This was during the depression of the 30's and I had quoted Mr. Seely top price, and I was going to do anything legal to complete the sale so I went to the back door. Now I am happy to announce that at the present time I am allowed to go in the front entrance to the Inn. Guns and a Grandfather Clock A friend of mine had a valuable antique clock about 6 feet tall. He said that he was leaving home for a month and there was a lot of larceny going on. He would like to leave it with me for safekeeping. I told him to put it in the storage area on the second floor of the shop. A couple of days later a customer comes in and wants to buy a shotgun. It was summer time and since hunting season didn’t open until fall I wondered why he wanted a shotgun. My salesman said all the shotguns and shells were stored on the second floor and he would take the customer up there. A little later I heard a big loud bang from the second floor. The salesman came running down and said that the customer had committed suicide with a shotgun. I called the Police Department and Dr. Baer, the coroner. Will Hampton, solicitor of police court and the chief came over. I went to the second floor with them and we found the customer passed out on the floor. I didn’t see any blood and upon examination we found part of his clothing blown away under one arm and he wasn’t injured. It’s almost impossible to reach the trigger of a 31" barrel shotgun when you have the muzzle at your chest. Evidently the customer must have tried to reach the trigger and the muzzle slipped under his arm when the gun fired. I remembered the grandfather clock and found that the discharge from the gun blew some of the plaster out of the wall about a foot from the clock. The clock was okay. Dr. Baer asked for a pen. He said that he wanted to find out if the man really passed out. He jabbed him several times with a pen and the man didn’t move. He really passed out. The chief said that the man had violated a law and he would take charge of him. The lesson from this event is: Don’t try to commit suicide - if you do you are liable to get arrested. A secretary’s thoughts My name was Margaret Owen in 1936, when I was Leo Finkelstein’s secretary. It was �the first job I ever had and he really taught me how to be office help. It was an exciting time to work on Pack Square, which was the hub of Asheville’s business world at that time. I remember that Mr. Finkelstein would lend me out to do typing for some of the Jewish organizations he was participating with at that time. I worked for Lou Pollock when he was head of the Jewish Cemetery, and Mr. Gustav Lichtenfeld and Sigred Sternberg when they were working on getting Jewish people out of Germany. I wrote some of the letters which were instrumental in bringing some of the early German Jews to Asheville, who then went on to become very valuable citizens of Asheville, I know of Herbert Schiftan and his family, and Alfred and Irmgard Lichtenfels. There were probably others that Mr. Finkelstein was responsible for that he remembers, but I have forgotten. I was in the store when the internees of Germany and Japan who were billeted at Grove Park Inn came in, and Tom Wolfe came in to visit his friend, Bob Bunn. I was standing out front one day when General George Marshall walked by on is way to the City Hall which was the Air Force Headquarters as that time during World War II. We all were out front one day when President Franklin D. Roosevelt visited Asheville to dedicate the Great Smoky National Park. Mr. Finkelstein was more than a friend to many of the ethnic community of that time. I believe that he was the contact for visiting rabbis, Jewish transient people who needed help and communicated with them in Hebrew. All the employees learned to understand and communicate (somewhat) by talking to each other in Yiddish. Mr. Finkelstein played at least ten or twelve instruments, demonstrating in order to make a sale or loan. The Silver Shirts In the 1930's William Dudley Pelly operated the “Silver Shirts,” a Nazi like organization in a building across the street from the Jewish Community Center on Charlotte Street. He published the “Liberation Weekly,” anti-Semitic literature with a circulation of eight thousand. In a parade, I was playing the saxophone with the Asheville Shrine Club Marching Band, and William Rosenfelt was carrying the American Flag. Pelly in his “Liberation Weekly” published a story that we were disgraced by a Jew with a big nose carrying the American Flag. Pelly was arrested by the Buncombe County Sheriff’s Department in 1941 for selling unregistered stock. He was found guilty through the efforts of Julius Levitch, a young Jewish lawyer by the name of Alvin Kurtus, and a local attorney named R.R. Williams. Unnamed William Rothenberg was a patient at the V.A. Hospital in Oteen. He moved to Asheville to live, married Freda Gross. I gave him a job as salesman in the pawnshop. He would go back to Oteen for treatments but was asked to stop. He got to drinking and was separated from his wife. A railroad watch from our display board was missing. A Taxi driver told me that William Rothenberg went the watch to the other pawnshop in town by him and he pawned it there for $20.00. I checked the serial numbers on the watch and they were the same as the ones on our watch. I asked Rothenberg about it and he said that he won it in a poker game the night before �at the Langren Hotel. I checked with Fred Bradley, the night manager of the hotel and he advised me that there was no poker game in the hotel that night. Rothenberg got the drinking and Judge Cathey put him in jail with a sentence of 30 days. Judge Cathey released him from jail after I promised to send him to Miami, FL where his ex-wife was living. I bought him a bus ticket and told him not to return to Asheville. He did not return. IV. I Am A Dime I was born in the early part of the twentieth century at the United States Mint in Philadelphia, put in a roll with forty-nine other dimes and shipped to the Southern State Bank on Depot Street in Asheville, North Carolina, of which Mr. S. Sternberg was president. Mr. Sternberg had a son, Joseph, who later became president of the Asheville Lions Club. Mr. Sternberg took me and the forty-nine other dimes to his beautiful estate on Victoria Road in order to participate in a ten cent limit poker game with some of his friends. Someone tipped off the police that a game was going on. The home was raided and Mr. Sternberg gave the names of the players as Mr. Aleph, Mr. Baze, Mr. Gimmel, Mr. Dolad, Mr. Hay, Mr. Vove, Mr. Zion and Mr. Hess. The “Asheville Citizen” carried a story after the trial that an attorney appeared in Police Court for Mr. Aleph, Mr. Baze, Mr. Gimmel, Mr. Dolad, Mr. Hay, Mr. Vove, Mr. Zion and Mr. Hess and paid their fines. Very few people knew that Aleph, Baze, Gimmel, Dolad, Hay, Vove, Zion, and Hess are the first eight letters of the Hebrew Alphabet. I got separated from the other dimes that came to Asheville with me. I found myself in the pocket of Chief Bernard of the Asheville Police Department. It was in November, 1906, that the Chief phoned Uncle Harry, the pawnbroker, and said that ne needed firearms and ammunition to equip a posse of fifty men in order to hunt Will Harris, a desperado. Will Harris had shot and killed five men, of whom two were city policemen. Uncle Harry furnished the posse with guns and ammunition, taking only the names of those receiving firearms. It was reported that Will Harris spent the night in a barn in Buena Vista. The posse surrounded him in a field near Fletcher and killed him. His body was brought to an undertaking establishment at 21 South Main Street, and hung out of the second story window in the building in order to show the people that he had been killed and quieten them down. The next day, the Chief called Uncle Harry and asked if all the firearms had been returned. Uncle Harry said they had and commented that the people of Asheville were honest and good citizens. (Now, Thomas Wolfe, famous author and native of Asheville used this event for a story published in the Saturday Evening Post September 7, 1937. He also used it in a chapter in his book “The Child by Tiger.” 2 Bob Terrell, writer for the Citizen-Times talked about this event at one of our meetings. In 1968 the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms in Washington required a record of every pistol, rifle, revolver that we received and disposed of, as well as the model, caliber, serial number and manufacturer. I recently checked the shop that I retired from 25 years ago and they have records of 2 Move note here on Thomas Wolfe etc. �33,000 transactions since 1968 on hand.) The Chief took me to Mr. Pappa’s Cafe on South Main Street, bought his lunch which consisted of a ten cent bowl of soup, a good supply of free crackers and catsup. Mr. Pappa’s brother operated the “Candy Kitchen” on Haywood Street. They were making a lot of stick candy in the shape of walking sticks, colored red and white. The cafe owner bought a half dozen walking sticks from his brother, using me as part payment. He said that he was going to put the candy on his Christmas tree. The next day Mr. Pappas, who lived on North Main Street, was coming to town in a rain storm. North Main Street was paved but all side streets were not. They had stepping stones in order to get across. Mr. Pappas slipped on a stepping stone, getting his shoes all muddy. He stopped at the Pack Square Shoe Shine Parlor, got a shoe shine for five cents and gave the shine boy a five cent tip. The next thing I knew I was placed in a deposit for the Wachovia Bank and I stayed in their vault until the year 1913. Uncle Harry picked me up to use in his petty cash. His son asked for his weekly allowance and I was given to him with four other dimes. The son boarded a South Main Street streetcar on Pack Square with a fishing pole and a can of worms. He got off at the Swannanoa River and walked a hundred yards toward the French Broad. In a couple of house, he caught a nice string of hog suckers, horney heads and perch out of the beautiful clear waters of the Swannanoa River. On his way home, he gave me to the conductor, received five cents change and a transfer to the North Main streetcar in order to go home. The Conductor carried me around a few days and then gave me to a lady on the Riverside “open air” streetcar that ran to Riverside Park. Riverside Park was owned an operated by the Asheville Power and Light Co., the same people who owned the street car company that was finally gobbled up by Lion Smith’s Carolina Power and Light Co. This lady gave me to her husband who went down to the Elk’s Club and lost me in a rummy game to a distinguished looking attorney they called “Judge Cocke.” After the card game the “judge” sat around talking to brother Elks and drinking beer. He was famous for his knowledge of North Carolina, its people and places. He even talked about the house of ill repute in Asheville at the turn of the century known as the “Eagle Terrace” run by a lady called “Queen Elizabeth.” The next morning, Attorney Cocke defended a man in Police Court who was charged with stealing a pair of shoes and pawning them because he couldn’t wear them on account of being too small. The court ordered the man to leave town that day. The man said he was hungry and didn’t have any money. So Attorney Cocke gave me with other change to him. The man went down to the Asheville and East Tennessee Railway Company station at the corner of North Main and College Streets. They operated an electric vehicle between Asheville and Weaverville. The man smelled hot dogs cooking at D. Gross’s Hot Dog Stand next door, so he spent me for a hot dog and a coca-cola. Mr. Gross raised and educated a family of thirteen children from the money he earned at his hot dog stand. Mr. Gross carried me around until Saturday night when he went to Liggett’s Drug Store for some headache powders. He stopped in front of the drug store to listen to the Salvation Army band while they were having a preaching and musical session. He put me in a pot they were using to get donations for their annual Christmas party. �The Salvation Army bought a second-hand truck from Lion Fred Brown to be used in delivering food and clothing to the poor people in town. I was used in this transaction. Lion Brown took me to a Lions Club meeting, where he used me to pay the dime he was fined by the “Tail Twister” for falling asleep during the program. The Tail Twister’s wife took possession of me and bought some ribbon at the Palais Royal, a large department store on South Main Street, operated by Mr. Morris Myers. I circulated around Asheville until 1918, and again, found myself in possession of Mr. Sternberg. He had a large junk yard and warehouse on Depot Street that bought and sold hundreds of cowhides. On all of his advertisements he carried the slogan “We buy anything and sell everything.” A circus came to town and didn’t have enough money to leave. They applied to Mr. Sternberg who was president of the Southern States Bank on Depot Street for a loan of $200. Mr. Sternberg made the loan and took the elephant as collateral. He complained he was losing money on account of the elephant eating so much. Otto Buseck who owned Middlemont Gardens at that time raised his own flowers at a hot house in Candler. He helped Mr. Sternberg out with the elephant - he bought the manure from him. The next thing I recall was four o’clock on the morning of November 11, 1918. The fire bell started to ring at the firehouse. The Armistice of World War I had been signed. People gathered on Pack Square and built a huge bonfire. A fire truck came out of the firehouse to shine its spot light on the American flag flying at the top of the Pack Square flag pole. People were bringing their guns from home to the Square and shooting live ammunition into the air in celebration. The fellow who owned me brought a double-barrel shotgun to town and bought some black powder shells from Otis Green Hardware Store. (Mr. Green years later became Mayor of Asheville). The Chief of Police soon asked all stores selling ammunition to quit selling it as he was afraid someone would accidentally get shot. Mr. Green took me to the Southern Railway passenger station and bought a ticket to New York from Pat Mulvaney, ticket agent. Frank Mulvaney, a brother to Pat, was a chief clerk for the railroad. He later became councilman for the City of Asheville. Pat took me to the Union News Company’s news stand in the station and bought two five cent cigars. Later an engineer from the railroad bought a “Billboard” magazine, and I was given to him in change for a dollar. He took me to the Glen Rock Hotel across the street, and I was used in paying his bill. The clerk at the hotel bought some ice cream at Finley’s Drug Store next door. Mr. Finley gave me to his son, Bob, who took me to Montford Avenue School. Bob in later years became the Supreme Court Justice for the State of Washington. Bob, on leaving Montford Avenue School one day, took me to Mr. Book’s Grocery Store on Cherry Street and bought some cookies. The people across the street from Mr. Book’s Grocery Store had a lot of cherry trees on their land and they would pay boys from the school ten cents a quart to pick cherries. Lion Carol Rhinehart picked a quart of cherries and received me in payment. Lion Carl Rhinehart lost me in a marble game at school to Jack Roberts, who took me home to 219 North Main Street. A creek ran parallel to North Main Street and emptied into the French Broad. Jack found muskrats were running up and down the creek, so he recruited some of the neighborhood boys who acquired steel traps and caught and sold the muskrat hides to St. �Penick and Company, at the corner of North Main and Lexington. The next thing I recall I was in the pants pocket of Lion Bill Michalove, who took me to the Galaxy Theater on Pack Square in order to see a serial movie called “The Black Hand.” Bill’s brother, Dan, was manager of the Asheville Theaters, and he finally became Vice President of Paramount Pictures, with headquarters in Australia. Since Bill had an “in” at the theaters in town, he would, on occasion, take his teen-age boy friends back stage at the Majestic Theater, located at the corner of College and Market Streets, to view the chorus girls at close range. Tommy Elkins, the stage manager, would keep a close watch on the boys in order to see that they behaved themselves. It was in 1922 when I was used as part payment for a second hand Jeffery automobile bought by Harry Blomberg. Harry took his Jeffery Auto to Asheville High School on Oak Street. Someone dropped me on Market Street and I rolled down a storm sewer. I stayed there for a long time and one day a man from the city’s water department found me and used me in a donation to the Democratic Party of Buncombe County. The chairman of the Party put me in a 10 cents slot machine at a social club. The player who won me at the slot machine would always put me back, hoping to win more. I circulated in and out of the slot machine until 1950, when Lion Dr. Feldman won me. Dr. Feldman had a reputation of never buying anything unless he could get it wholesale. Dr. Feldman put me in the zipper change section of his pocketbook, and now I haven’t seen the light of day for twenty years. V. Jewish Jitter Bugs3 A bug is an insect. A Jitter Bug is an insect that jumps from place to place. A Jewish Jitter Bug is a professional bum, claiming Jewish faith— jumping around from city to city — living off the sympathy of his misinformed brothers - other Jews. For twenty years, I have seen this bunch of crooks take from $300 to $400 a year out of my community. I have learned their stories, their approach, their methods, and in fact, I can tell one just by the sight of him. I have seem them go north in the summer-time, and south in the wintertime. I have been awakened at all hours of the night by them, tracked down on Sundays and holidays. I have to put up with them coming in my place of business, with no courtesy to me, or respect for my customers. I have to watch them go away most always with a dissatisfied growl for what help they get, and seldom do I hear a “Thank You”. I have to battle their high-powered maneuvers of artistic chiseling without the help or appreciation of the Jewish Community in which I live. Who are these people? Why, they are Jews — sure, they are a bunch of professional racketeers that cost the Jewish public about one million dollars per year. If a Jew gets to a city and is broke - why, the other Jews are supposed to help him out. What he is or what he does or where he comes from - don’t make any difference - as long as he is a Jew that is all that is necessary. That is what you might think — but I don’t! There is not one Jewish transient in five hundred worthy of any help at all. They travel from place to place using the fact that they are Jews to prey upon other Jews. Many of them are ex-convicts, 3 Cite reference �some just ordinary bums, and all of them liars. In this army of rogues, you will not find one who has a friend or relative who they could obtain help from. I have offered to wire to any person for hundreds of them, but they will tell ;you that all their friends or relatives are broke, or that they wouldn’t think of asking any of them for money. Common sense will tell you that, if a transient is worthy, there must be someone in this world who will help him to some extent. I am sure if any of you gentlemen were to find yourself broke in some far off place, that you would have at least one friend or relative to whom you could wire for help. These swindlers don’t want to get help from friends or relatives. They are just traveling around, enjoying life in a peculiar way, and living on the Jewish public, their so-called brothers. So, when these Jewish Brothers of ours come to town, what are we supposed to do with them? The only sensible thing we can do is to get rid of them as quickly and as cheaply as possible. The most common type of transient is the ordinary bum who claims that he has a job in a nearby city. All he wants from you is a couple of meals in a good restaurant, a room with a bath in a clean hotel, transportation to the place he is going, and maybe a pair of shoes, a couple of shirts and an overcoat. In order to get rid of this man quickly you must start talking before he does. So when I spot one, I start talking first. I ask him if he wants some help, and as soon as he says “Yes” I hand him a half-dollar, a meal ticket to a nearby restaurant, and tell him to get the hell out of town as fast as he can. Most of them will take this and leave because they know, through their grapevine system, that this is all they can get. This system even informs them where to go to when you get to a town, and that is why nobody see the majority of these people, except myself. Some of them insist that they have a special story to tell you about their hard luck, and that they re different from the rest. These stories would make some of you break down and weep, but to me these stories are just a bunch of fabricated lies. Then, we have the group of transients who are physically disabled. Some are partially blind and crippled. They will claim to have tuberculosis, nervous indigestion, high blood pressure or what-not. Some will claim to have a combination or complication of diseases, or an assortment of ailments. If I am convinced that the transient is really ill, then I buy him transportation to the nearest point, and get him out of town as fast as I can. These people are never given cash for their transportation. A check is written to the Bus Station for their ticket, and the Bus Station has instructions to issue a ticket stamped “No Refund”. This method was adopted after I found out some cashed their tickets back in, in order to get cash, and bummed rides out on the highway to get to where they were going. A decent looking, elderly lady once appealed to me for help. She stated that she was almost blind, and was traveling with her son who was so crippled he couldn’t walk. She told me that she and her son had come in on a bus late the night before, and were at a small hotel near the bus station. She advised me that her son was ill in bed, that she was out of funds, could not pay her hotel bill, had nothing to eat, and no way to get to a nearby city where her son was going to enter a hospital. “A worthy case, at last!” I thought. I took her name, and ask her to come back in an hour, and I would see what I could do for her. I inquired at the hotel, and found that nobody by the name she gave me was there. I asked her about this when she returned, and she said that she did not use her real name since it was Jewish, and she didn’t want people to think she was Jewish. I called the hotel again and inquired about the new name she had given me, and the hotel informed me that the two of there were register there, but that her son seemed healthy, and was in and out of the hotel all day long. Asking her about this, she explained that her son went out only when he had to go to the drug store for medicine. It was cold and raining outside, so I called the hotel, and told them I would pay their bill, gave her enough for food, bought her two bus tickets, and gave her instructions to get out of town, by night without fail. It wasn’t long before I received a phone call from a Jewish person in town stating that this old lady had called on him, and pe proceeded to cuss me out for not giving her any help. To make a long story short--she called on three more persons in the city with the same story - that I would not help her. A couple of hours later I went by the hotel where she was staying and found that she had checked out and left in her room many pieces of clothing that had been given to her by these people she had called on in the city. �Then we have the rabbis. They are a wonderful type of transient to deal with. They usually get to town on Friday, so you have to keep them over “shabbos”. That means an expense of two nights lodging and meals for a whole day. In fact, all the transients who arrive on Friday are “very religious” and won’t travel on Friday night or Saturday. I’ve had many rabbis promise to send me back the money I gave them, and never yet has one of them sent back a penny. In fact, of the hundreds of promises that I’ve had from all kinds of transients to return money given them, never has one kept his promise. The president of the orthodox congregation once phoned me, and told me that a rabbi was at this house m and that this rabbi was a very fine person, a scholar, and a gentleman, a man is in need, and suggested that I give him $5. I was just ready to leave my house, and I informed the president that I did not have time to interview the rabbi myself, but that if he thought the man was worthy, to give him $5, and I would return that amount to him later. I happened to pass by the president’s house just as the rabbi was leaving there, and I took a good look at him. The next morning, the same rabbi was at my place of business, wanting to know if I took care of the Jewish transients. He wasn’t a rabbi anymore, and he had changed his name. I told him to come along with me, and I would take him to the man who could help him. He got into the front seat of my automobile, and wanted to know where we were going, and when I told him we were going to see the president of the orthodox congregation, he jumped out and ran. I ran after him, and caught him on Patton Avenue. He started yelling like I was going to murder him, and a crowd started to gather, so I let him go, and he ran away again. I haven’t seen him since. Another Rabbi once appealed to me for help, and he claimed to be a brother-in-law of the rabbi in Greenville, SC. Knowing the rabbi in Greenville personally, I didn’t believe he would send a brother-inlaw of his out of the state to chisel the public, so I phoned long distance to inquire about the man. The rabbi in Greenville informed me that this transient had worried the community there a couple of days before, that he was no relation of his, but claimed to be a brother-in-law of the rabbi in Columbia. This man’s system was to claim relationship to a rabbi in a nearby city, in order to get help. I gave him $.50 and a meal ticket, and told him to get out of town before dark. He didn’t leave, instead he called on other Jews in the city with the same story, and collected around $5 by noon the next day. I finally contacted him, and told him again to get out of town, which he refused to do. So, I had the police department pick him up, and put him in jail. In about an hour, I went over, and talked to him in jail, and he changed his tune quite a bit. He was ready to leave town, so we let him out and this time I gave him fifteen minutes to disappear--and he did! Another rabbi once called on me, and stated that he was a representative of a Jewish institution somewhere in Europe, and wanted a donation for it. I explained to him that we had a Federated Jewish charities here to help him, and he would have to make his request through them. He kept insisting that I give him a donation personally, and I kept refusing him. He finally gave up, proceeded to cut me out in Yiddish, in a extremely loud voice — and this wasn’t all — he spit on the floor, slammed the door as hard as he could as he went out. I felt like killing him, and I think it would have been justifiable homicide. I could tell you many tales of my experiences with these human vultures, but one I remember in particular, was the time when a local judge phoned me, and told me that he would have to try a young boy by the name of Goldberg for vagrancy. He asked me to recommend to him what to do with the boy. I went over to see the defendant, and he happened to be one of the transients I had helped a few days before. He had ordered a sandwich at a small restaurant on the outskirts of town, refused to pay for it, so the restaurant man had him arrested. I told the judge of my experiences with the Jewish transients and asked him to make an example out of this boy, so he gave him thirty days on the road. In sentencing the boy, the judge told him that from now on every Jewish transient that was brought before him would get a road sentence. Then I really got criticized by the Jewish community for putting Jewish Boys on the Chain-gang. I was shown a copy of his criminal record from the FBI a few days later. He had been convicted of all kinds of offenses from stealing a bicycle to highway robbery. After the boy got out, he came to see me again, and feeling sorry for him, I bought him a ticket to Charlotte, and informed him that I would see that every transient from now on coming into Asheville would get a road sentence. Before that time, we had from ten to thirty transients per month appealing for help. It was interesting to note that �we didn’t have another transient come into Asheville, for six weeks after the boy left, and for a long time after that, appeals for help were 50% of what they had been before that. It is my sincere recommendation that every Jewish transient, coming into Asheville, be put in jail for a certain length of time. This is the only way to cure this evil. Of course, the Jewish community wouldn’t stand for anything like that, they would rather give these damned hoodlums a few hundred dollars every year. Then, we have the transients coming through in family groups. These groups consist of a mother and father, with one or more children. They usually arrive in a dilapidated old automobile. Most of the time, the automobile needs some repairs before they can leave town in it; it never has any gasoline and usually needs a couple of quarts of oil. These parties are expensive and hard to handle, because you can hardly send small children on their way without a night’s sleep and proper food. Of course, I have some deserving cases, but I don’t class these with the transients. For instance, a man once came in to see me, with the story that he had tuberculosis, and he had come down here from Detroit as his doctor had recommended this climate to him. He expected to get a job as an elevator boy, or something of the sort, and he was under the impression that the climate here would cure him while he worked. Well, the man was broke, and was waiting for some financial help from his brother whom he had written a few days before. I gave the man $4 and he promised to pay me back as soon as he heard from his brother. He came back the next day. He had heard from his brother. He showed me the letter and his brother enclosed $10 which was all that he could send. He told me that he was unable to find work, and was going to start back for Detroit. He offered me the $4 I had given him. I asked him how he expected to get back to Detroit on $7, and he told me that he would have to hitch-hike. I told him to keep the $4, and wish him the best of luck, and while I am not a doctor, I was under the opinion from his looks that his health would never permit him to hitch-hike back home and get there alive. So for twenty years, I have dealt with the bunch of beggars, coming from North, South, East, and West. They have become a part of my life, and if I could get out of this job right now, I am sure I would miss this horde of gangsters that hop around from place to place like a bunch of grasshoppers in a clover patch. VI. War Years4 Pilot on 023 On admission to the Air Force in 1943 I was interviewed as to what activity I had in a business or profession, also what experience I had in religious, fraternal or civic affairs. I told them I was just a clerk in a pawnshop. I didn’t tell them that I once: was president of a cemetery. was an owner of a company that built floats and decorated the town for the first Rhododendron Festival in Asheville. supplied the Asheville Police Dept. and the Sheriff’s Dept. with guns and ammunition. 4 . A more complete account of Leo Finkelstein’s experiences during World War II is found in his Letters from Leo: Letters to the Asheville Lion’s Club (Center for Appalachian Studies: Appalachian State University, Boone, NC, 1996) �I didn’t tell them anything about my civic, fraternal, religious or social activities. I was sent to Tishomingo, Oklahoma for training in the Oklahoma State College for Agriculture to be an air force clerk in engineering. After graduating from the clerk’s school in Tishomingo, I felt I would have an easy life in the Air Force being an engineering clerk. But my duties from Tishomingo to the islands in the South Pacific were: kitchen police mess hall fireman mess hall garbage director cleaning chickens policing grounds digging ditches hauling poles hauling fire wood hauling coal fighting forest fires assorting merchandise at warehouse assorting salvage merchandise smashing tin cans hauling water finance clerk detail clerk runner for headquarters stacking lumber cleaning rifles and machine guns building roads repairing bridges laying concrete operating gasoline pump telephone operator making inventories of supplies acting C. Q. pulling weeds and grass watering trees loading and unloading trucks loading and unloading freight cars loading barracks bags on boats and trucks cleaning hatches on boats latrine orderly painting machinery communications clerk and finally engineering clerk for the 394th Squadron, 5th bomb group of the 13th Air Force. Getting a good grade on my education at Tishomingo and experience in travel to the South Pacific I thought I was ready to do my job. �My first difficulty was when A pilot comes in to see me after a combat mission on a B-24 Bomber number 023 and said that he failed to put on his reporting form #Y that the tachometer indicator occilates excessively, would I please write it in the form for him. I told him I would. You know, I didn’t know what the h--- he was talking about and I couldn’t even spell it. Tokyo Rose Tokyo Rose was an American girl broadcasting from a radio station in Japan during World War II. Her broadcast was received by the 13th Air Force in the Admiralty Islands located in the South Pacific area. She played recorded American music in her broadcast. She advised us that our wives and sweethearts were dating the 4 F’s - the men who stayed out of military service and they would go to drive inns for hamburgers and coca-colas. She also said that the Japanese would be waiting for our B-24 bombers scheduled for a mission in the morning with anti-aircraft guns and fighter planes. Radios were scarce on the island. I wanted to listen to Tokyo Rose so I wrote home and requested a small radio to be shipped to me. They advised that the smallest radio weighed too much to be shipped overseas by parcel post but they would take it apart and ship it in two packages which was acceptable at the post office. The radio department of the 5th Bomb Group said they would be glad to put the radio together for me. When I received the shipment in two packages I gave it to them. They repaired it the best they could. I found that when I turned it on it would work for about a minute and then quit receiving. They couldn’t find the trouble. One day I took a screw driver, tightened all the screws and thought I found the trouble. I put the radio on the table in the tent, started it receiving and in one minute it stopped. I was disgusted - I hit the radio, knocked it off the table. It hit the floor, bounced about 2 feet and started playing. It was okay from then on. In about a week Captain Gardner in the engineering department sent word that he wanted to see me as soon as possible. I thought I had fouled up on keeping his engineering records but he had this to say: Corporal Finkelstein we are having trouble repairing the radio on airplane No. 022 and we understand that you are the only one in the 394th Squadron that can solve our problem. Will you help us? I forgot what I said, but I couldn’t figure out how to knock an airplane off the table. Topless Women �Now if you read the morning paper, you noticed headlines on the front page: “Topless Night Club Opens in Asheville.” Well, you didn’t need a night club to see topless women on those South Pacific Islands during WWII. The trouble was they would move all the women to another island close by the island we occupied. We built a motor boat made of two airplane belly tanks and a small power unit so that we could go over and see the women at another island. I didn’t go over to see the women. I wasn’t afraid of them, but I was afraid the boat might sink. Sergeant Joe In 1944, Sergeant Joe, the mess sergeant in my outfit in the 13th Air Force located in the South Pacific during World War II, received a shipment of canned corn. Instead of using it for chow, he built a still in a fox hole and made corn whiskey out of it. Joe ran a road house in Greenville, South Carolina before the war and in a neighborly spirit he invited me to drink what I wanted of the corn whiskey and he helped me trade watch bands for coca-cola syrup and ice cream from a Navy C.B. outfit located near by. After the war, he operated his road house in Greenville again. He came to see me and advised that they had arrested his partner for hauling whiskey in Buncombe County and wanted to know if I could help him. I told him that I knew the Chief of Police and Sheriff Brown and I would be glad to see what the situation was. He told me they couldn’t help as it was the Federal authorities that arrested his partner. Thinking of how to get him a light sentence I asked Joe if his partner was in the armed forces and he said that they had turned him down because he has a heart murmur. I told Joe to send him to Dr. Feldman and I’d get the report from him as to his heart murmur. Dr. Feldman told me he had a heart murmur and as Federal Physician he would advise Judge Warlick about in federal court. At the trial Joe’s partner went scott free. Later he came to see me with a roll of hundred dollar bills and wanted to pay me for getting him off. I refused the money and told him that Joe had helped me out during the war and what I did was a favor to Joe. Later he brought me six fifths of Scotch for a present, which I kept. While overseas, besides having corn whiskey made by Joe and medical alcohol diluted 50% by water and flavored with burnt sugar, we were able to buy bonded whiskey from the flying personnel who didn’t drink their ration. Price was $60 per fifth. They were looking for souvenirs so I wrote Lion Nat Friedman to send me a Japanese hare-kari knife from his antique store. He sent me a similar one. It was a circular shape Turkish knife with Turkish letters on it. My cost was $4. It looked like a hare-kari knife. I gave it to Sergeant Joe and asked him to see if he could trade for a Fifth of bonded whiskey. He reported later that he couldn’t get a fifth of whiskey for it but he did get two fifths for it. Sgt. Smokey Joe’s home is just a little bit south of Asheville, NC. He was mess sergeant for the 394th squadron, a good guy, and a GI who could sympathize with all the other GI’s who had to eat the food he prepared. �Before the war Smokey Joe owned a road house on the highway going south from Asheville and after talking to him I found that I had patronized his institution on numerous occasions during my younger years. Since we were practically neighbors in civilian life, we felt that we should continue over there as good neighbors and so we were. There is no better friend in the army than a cook because when you get hungry, he is the only man who can help you out. In passing I might mention that Smokey Joe, Starvin Marvin and I have on numerous instances enjoyed eating surplus stocks of food from the Mess Hall. Smokey Joe told me about Sheriff Brown, in Asheville, taking his automobile away from him once because the sheriff had found some whiskey in it that he was transporting to his road house. Now Smokey is fighting to get his freedom - his freedom to go home and dodge Sheriff Brown some more, and there is Starvin Marvin who wants to go home and see his wife and two year old boy, a child that he has never seen, and so it is with me - I want to go home - I just want to go home. WWII Diary I had nothing to do while recovering from a recent surgery so I found my WWII diary and read the following: Before the war, I thought being the army would be a thrilling adventure - but now I know Sherman was right. Before the war, I thought the Air Force was a mechanized force - but now I wonder what the Hell I’m marching for. Before the war, I thought the Asheville Citizen was a volten newspaper - but now I enjoy reading one four days old. Before the war, I would drink a cocktail before dinner but now I drink milk with my dinner. Before the war, I would sometimes go to be at 4 am but now I get up at 4 am. Before the war, I was particular about what girl I took out - but now I’m not so particular. Before the war I struggled over a golf course - but now I struggle over an obsticle course. Before the war, I used to shine at a dance - but now I shine my shoes. Before the war, I cussed at a golf ball - but now a sergeant cusses at me for not being on the ball. �Before the war, I didn’t have much religion - but now I pray for a furlough. ... Soon after a prayer for a furlough, the Red Cross advised me that a business associate of mine had committed suicide and I had been granted a two weeks emergency furlough for a trip home. VII. After the War Sgt. Smokey Joe After the war Smokey Joe opened his road house again near Greenville, SC. He came to see me and advised that they had arrested his partner for hauling whiskey in Buncombe County and wanted to know if I could help him out. I told him I knew the Chief of Police and Sheriff Brown and I would be glad to see what the situation was. He told me they couldn’t help as it was the Federal Authorities that arrested his partner. Thinking of how to get him a light sentence, I asked Joe if his partner was in the armed forces and he said that they had turned him down because he had a heart murmur. I told Joe to send his partner to Lion Dr. Feldman who was Federal Physician and I would get a report from him as to his heart murmur. Lion Dr. Feldman told me he had a heart murmur and as a Federal Physician he would advise Judge Warlick about it in Federal Court. At the trial, Joe’s partner got a suspended sentence. Later he came to see me with a roll of hundred dollar bills and wanted to pay me for getting him off. I refused the money and told him that Joe had helped me out during the war and what I did was a favor to Joe. Later he brought me six fifths of scotch for a present which I kept. Corn Whiskey at Road House Before the war, road houses would hide the corn whiskey they served their guests in a container under a bed. When the sheriff’s dept. would raid the joint, they usually wouldn’t look for it there. One night they found it and an article appeared in the Asheville Citizen that the sheriff’s dept. confiscated a gallon of whiskey hid in a container at a road house. J im Dwelbiss and Beaver Lake Returning home from World War II, I was interested in building a house to live in. Jim Dwelbiss, president of the Asheville Lions Club 1941-1942, said that he had a lot across the street from his home on Westwood Road in Lakeview Park and if I would build a one story house so he could see Beaver Lake over the roof of my house, he would give me a good deal. I acquired the lot and built the house. He told me that as a resident of Lakeview Park I should take on some activity for the benefit of the park. He took me to the annual meeting of the property owners and I was elected as one of the three commissioners - no salary. When I met with the other two commissioners they told me I �had charge of the lake and fishing and they would back me up in anything I wanted to do. I got phone calls. I got a phone call from a resident and he says “Stop the fishing, the fish are diseased.” I contacted the game warden from the NC Wildlife Resources Commission and we found a service station by the creek that furnished the lake with water that had put old oil from automobiles in it and it had killed a few fish. I get a phone call from a lady that an awful looking man wearing overalls was fishing. I asked her did she expect him to wear a tuxedo. I get a call advising that two women indecently dressed were near the dam of the lake. I found them to be the wives of the two commissioners sun bathing. I found two men swimming in the lake, which was against the rules. They told me they would swim and that I couldn’t stop them. I told them to swim if they wanted to and that a sewer line had broken and was emptying in the lake and would probably get typhoid fever - they stopped swimming. I found a group of women in bathing suits at the lake near Glenn Falls Road with a photographer. I found them to be local beauticians getting their picture with the lake in the background. They were using the picture on a cover of a program for a State Convention of Beauticians in Asheville. Fishing in the lake was allowed for licensed property owners only. I saw a man standing at the edge of the lake for 30 minutes just looking. On investigation I found he had a line tied to his belt that ran down the inside of his pants leg over his shoe into the lake. On the line he had a float and a baited hook. When the fish would bite and pull the float under he would kick his leg, hang the fish, pull it in and nobody would know he was fishing. I appreciated what Lion Dwelbiss had done by getting me elected to be fish commissioner of Beaver Lake. But I got a call that I was going to be elected president of Congregation Beth-Ha-Tephila and that construction would be started soon on a temple at Liberty and Broad Streets. I thought I could use some religion so I didn’t run again for commissioner of Lakeview Park and I took up my duties as president of Beth-Ha-Tephila. I completed the building of financing of the new temple in two years. I was tired out and hoped that maybe I could get some rest by being fish commissioner again at Beaver Lake. Sternberg Hunting Rats �Joe Sternberg was president of the Lion’s Club in 1960-61. His father Seigfred Sternberg, came over to the U.S. at the turn of the century, procured a horse and wagon, drove around western North Carolina buying cowhides and junk. He finally opened a junk yard on Depot Street and became one of the largest cowhide dealers in the United States. Lion Joe was my classmate in the A.H.S. class of 1922. He would rent a freight car on the local freight train to Murphy and buy cowhides at the stations where the train stopped. I was watch inspector for the Southern Railway and would travel on the same train, give the employees a certificate that in my opinion the watch they had wouldn’t vary over 30 seconds a week. Going west you could go as far as Waynesville by auto and then by train to Murphy. Lion Joe Dave, president of the club in 1932, was construction engineer for the Sternberg Co. who supplied steel for the construction of buildings. Later he organized the Dave Steel Co. Old man Sternberg did well financially and became president of the Southern State Bank on Depot St. He became active in civic, religious and fraternal affairs in Asheville. He built a big home on Victoria Drive. He didn’t like the help he was getting in Asheville so he imported a young beautiful maid from Germany. The maid went down to get an item at the garage and found Mr. Sternberg there. Mr. Sternberg got fresh with the maid, the maid picked up a 22 caliber rifle that I sold him and shot him. The wound wasn’t serious. The next morning a news item appeared in the Asheville Citizen with the head line: “Sternberg Wounded While Hunting Rats in the Garage.” Irving S. Cobb and Grove Park Inn About sixty years ago my friend Fred Bradley was night clerk at Grove Park Inn. He would tell me about the operation of the Inn. A guest would find his home town newspaper at his breakfast table. If he paid for anything, what change, if needed, would be given to him in uncirculated money. The only entrance to the Inn’s grounds was a large gate off of Macon Ave. The gate was closed at 10 PM as the noise from any automobile going in and out would disturb the guests. Irving S. Cobb, famous humorist, was spending a couple of days at the Inn. A little after ten o’clock one night he tried to get his auto into the Inn’s grounds. He found the gate locked. He had to park his car on Macon Avenue. He walked to the Inn and complained loudly about it. He was advised that the Inn didn’t welcome any unusual noises after 10 PM. In a little while he came down to the lobby from his room carrying his shoes, nothing on his feet but his socks, walked very quietly to Fred Bradley, the night clerk, and whispered to him “I want to check out.” �In a couple of days a news item appeared in the Asheville Citizen written by Irving Cobb with the headline: “The Bunk of Buncombe.” Read news article from Citizen-Times on suicide This reminded me of a historical event years ago when I was selling guns. A customer said he wanted an inexpensive pistol to keep in his home and he just obtained a permit to buy it. I sold him a 22 cal. Iver Johnson pistol. This type gun was later known as a “Saturday Night Special.” When I completed the sale I said “Thank you mister.” He said “Don’t call me mister, I’m a doctor. You call me doctor.” I said, “Thank you doctor.” He took the gun home and committed suicide with it. Now: I got to thinking if he bought the gun today he would have to make application to get a permit and wait two or three days for the permit to be issued. Maybe if he had to wait that long for a permit, he might have changed his mind about the suicide. Then: As a doctor I wondered why he didn’t write a prescription for some high powered sleeping pills, take several of them and just go to sleep and not wake up. I think I got an explanation. If any of you had to buy prescription drugs today, you know now expensive they are. And if they were that expensive back then when this happened, I guess the doctor felt he could save money by committing suicide with a “Saturday Night Special.” Problems in Water and Sewer Systems If you’ve read the newspapers lately, you know that the city of Asheville has problems in their water and sewer systems. I had some personal problems, so I phoned doctor #1. The lady answering the phone said that she would advise his nurse. His nurse was busy with a patient and the nurse would phone me later. The nurse phones me in about an hour. I asked the nurse if I was supposed to talk to her in a dignified way or call everything by its right name. She said to do what I think best, so I tell her what’s troubling me and that it had the color of Coca-Cola or Pepsi-Cola, I don’t know which. She said she would talk to the doctor and call me back. She calls back and says I ought to see doctor #2 who is a specialist with my troubles. He has a Rotto Rutter. I found out a Rotto Rutter is a gadget used by plumbers on home work. I see doctor #2 and he advises that he can’t find anything of a serious nature wrong. I go back to doctor #1. He makes several tests. He tells me to go back to doctor #2, that he is going to advise him of what he found and would ask him to make a complete examination. Back in doctor #2's office, an assistant brings in a machine for examination. He tells me that this machine is a new one, and it don’t hurt like the old one. After the examination, the �doctor makes an appointment for me to go to the hospital for a I.V.P. examination and bring the x-rays back to him. I take the x-rays back to doctor #2's office and the doctor says that they look pretty good, that all I need would be surgery and a 2 to 3 days stay in the hospital or it may be 6 days. I go back to the hospital for pre-admission tests and they do all the same tests that were done two or three times before and the nurse asked me a lot of personal questions. She asked if I had a BM. I knew that AM meant from midnight to noon and PM meant the time from noon to midnight. So I figured out the BM meant a BAD MORNING, so I told the nurse that I had a BM for about a week. I was told to report for surgery the next Wednesday at 6:30 AM, somewhat earlier than I usually get up. I get a phone call from doctor #2's nurse Tuesday night advising that the doctor is ill and would be unable to do the surgery and it would be postponed. Later I get a phone call that the surgery had been rescheduled for March 2nd at 1 PM. I had 5 days to review the situation and I think I was mentally, physically, and maybe financially ready for surgery. End of Report. I now feel good. SINS OF THE SANCTIMONOUS SUMMIT, OR Shall I live and laugh or cry and die with a prayer, or Laugh and live or cry and die Sylvia dn I decided to go into the Summit, a retirement home, for our golden years of life. We soon found out that the golden years of life are just gold plated- the gold wears off and you find yourself in a situation of assorted problems. I was in the WWII battle in the South Pacific but I found that it was a cinch compared to the “old age” battle in the Summit. Some of the residents here are physically disabled and some are mentally disabled. I am 92 years old and I find that all the residents over 90 years of age are both mentally and physically disabled. In moving to apartment #108, I asked if I could bring my piano. I was advised that my apartment had sound proof walls and it would be OK. A femal resident in an apartment near me said that she enjoyed listening to me practising but please don’t play before eight o’clock in the morning-- “it’s liable to disturb my sleeping.” The Summit was described to me as a “country club” retirement home with beautiful grounds, good entertainment and delicious food. In the so-called “country club retirement home,” I am still looking for the golf course and a swimming pool. �The department serving food is the best outfit here. The meals are delicious but I’ve never been offered a cocktail before dnner. The strongest drink I’ve ever had here has been ice tea. Some day maybe we will have an entree of a Maine Lobster or a wild duck on toast. I couldn’t figure out my monthly bill. I was told that the adding machine I had was an antique and what I needed was a calculator and computer to get the correct amount. I was advised that the easiest thing for me to do was to write a check for the amount listed as BALANCE on my statement. That would be satisfactory with the Summit. I never worry about paying my bills to the Summit-I’ll let them worry. If I go broke, I’ll just go next door to the Veteran’s Hospital where I can get in any time since I have a disability discharge from WWII. The 1997 elections are over and I’m glad I’m a Democrat because I don’t like what the Republicans will do with my benefits I get form Medicare and other government agencies to help pay the Summit. The Democrats are not so hot either. They lowered interest rates so much on my government bonds so now I have to cash them in order to have enough money to buy drugs. Memory My memory is getting worse. In leaving, my apartment I find the following has happened: #1 I forgot to turn the water off in the kitchen and the floor was flooded with water. #2 I forgot to turn the stove off and the coffee pot was melted. #3 I forgot to turn the lights off. #4 I forgot to take my hearing aid with me. #5 I forgot to take my walking cane with me. #6 I forgot to take my reading glasses with me. #7 I forgot to take my teeth. #8 I forgot to go to the bathroom--for my pills. I put a sign by the door where I leave the apartment listing the eight things I am supposed to do before leaving. Most times, I forget to look at the sign. Surgery payment My doctor advised me that I needed major surgery and that he would like to talk to me in his office. He wanted to know how I was going to pay my bill. I told him that a former doctor in his establishment would accept Medicare, also other Insurance benefits and send me a bill for what he didn’t collect. I would then send him a check. �He advised that there were deductions on my insurance during the first part of the year and wanted to know if I had considered them. I told him I didn’t know, but I would write him a check now if he wanted it. “Oh no,” he said. “I’ll take the check after the surgery.” I answered, “I think you are making a mistake. If you take my insurance payments you will get paid in thirty days. If you wait??? take my check and I die, it will take you a year to collect from my estate. He said, “You are wrong. I’m not going to let you die.” So now, I’m looking forward to the future with many years of fears and tears. Suffering from: Memory loss, over-reacting, trouble with eating, sleeping and weeping, co-ordination, irritation, and constipation. Prayer, or Humor, or What? I wondered what the most beneficial to me - PRAYER, or HUMOR, or WHAT? Is it time for me to laugh, cry or die? I sent copies of my WWII Diary [page ???] to two preachers that responded as follows: From preacher #1: Dear Leo: Thanks for the great piece. I enjoyed it! My best to you and Sylvia. From preacher #2: Thank you so much for that great “letter home from WWII.” It’s very funny! Actually it really made my day after shoveling snow. I too could use a furlough. All my best to you and Sylvia. Later both preachers asked for permission to use my thoughts in sermons. Maybe I should have been a preacher instead of a pawnbroker. Finis I had the honor of serving as president of Beth-Ha-Temphila in 1948 and 1949 during the building and financing of the new temple at Liberty and Broad Streets. I was Master of Ceremonies for the 50th Anniversary Banquet program of Beth-HaTehphila in 1941. I also presided at the 75th Anniversary Banquet in 1966. I have put in my application to preside at the 100th in 1991. Unless we are Indians, our ancestors came from Foreign Lands. I am thankful they did �what they did so that I could have the privilege of growing up in a city like Asheville, enjoy this great country of ours---a land of religious freedom and opportunity.

I.Origins1 In 1799, my great-great grandfather was a chicken farmer in the town of Pushalot, in the state of Lithuania, in the Soviet Union. It was a hard life in the town of Pushalot. The winters were nine months long and unendurably cold. The summers were hot and rainy. There were occasional pogroms or Russian Cossaks rampaging through the streets terrorizing the countryside, gypsies stealing everything in sight, including sometimes even children, and always there was the threat of Siberia. My ancestors, like most Jews, were very poor, hard working and suffering. My greatgreat grandfather bought eggs from all the chicken farmers, packed them carefully on a wagon, covered them with straw to keep them cool and fresh and rode many miles to Kovna, Vilna and Riga to sell the eggs at the big city markets. In 1825, my great grandfather served as a rabbi in Pushalot. In 1872, my grandfather opened a kretchma in Pushalot. A kretchma is a Russian inn somewhat like out modern motels, only they didn’t have swimming pools or air conditioning. It was a place travelers could stop for food or drink or spend the night. One day a Bolshevik on horseback stopped at the Inn and drank a lot of vodka. He got fresh with my grandmother, who I understand was a good looking girl in those days. My father, a teenage boy, picked up a piece of stove wood, hit him on the head and knocked him out. That was an awful crime in Russia for a Jewish boy. My grandfather made a temporary settlement with the Russian and gave him 50 rubles. My father thought that they may send him to jail or Siberia, so he stole his way across the border into Germany. He didn’t like Germany, so he left Germany and made his way to South Africa. He went to work as a house painter in Johannesburg. He became ill from the lead poisoning in the paint. There were no United Way or Federate Jewish Charities down there, but someone took pity on him and nursed him back to health. He sold cigarettes and sandwiches at a 1 Cite reference �stock exchange and he finally opened a resturant. In 1898, right before the English-Boer War, my father sold his resturant for gold coins, got a money belt, and went down to Cape Town. He had a cousin in Australia and a brother in Jacksonville, Florida. By a flip of a coin he came over to Jacksonville, Florida. In Jacksonville, Florida, he went to night school to learn to read and write English. II. The Dawn of the Twnetieth Century in Asheville In 1900, my father became ill and the doctor in Jacksonville told him the only place to go to get cured would be the mountains. He came up to Asheville, and Doctor Smith told him he would die of anything except what they sent him to Asheville for, so that he might as well go back to Jacksonville. He like Asheville so much he decided to stay here. In 1903, he opened a pawn shop at 23 South Main Street (now Biltmore Avenue). He married Fanny Sherman from Newport News, Virginia, and they made their home in an apartment on Ashland Avenue. In 1905, my father became a citizen of the United States. Among the organizations he joined were the Asheville Board of Trade (now The Asheville Chamber of Commerce), the Fraternal Order of Eagles, Suez Temple of the Oramatic Order of Khorosson, Lodge #1401 BPO, Elks, Mt. Herman Masonic Lodge, Scottish Rite Masonic Lodge, Oasis Temple of Shriners, Congregation Bikur Cholim (now Beth Isreal), and Congregation Betha-Ha-Tephila. So, in Asheville, North Carolina, the Twentieth Century began with: -The pawnbroker named Finkelstein. -S.H. Friedman, who operated a furniture store. He came to Asheville from Maryland, where he peddled tinware. His son, Nat Friedman, later operated the Susquehana Antique Co. -A Jewish lawyer by the name of Goldstein. -A Jewish plumber by the name of A.J. Huvard. He married E.C. Goldberg’s sister. E.C. Goldberg ran a news stand next to the Imperial Theater on Patton Avenue for years. -A Jewish dentist by the name of I. Mitchell Mann. -Harry Blomberg’s father who came to Asheville in 1887. He operated the Racket Store on Biltmore Avenue for many years. -The Palais Royal Department Store operated by Morris Meyers for 40 years. He was a charter member of Congregation Beth-Ha-Tephila and he came to Asheville in 1887. -The Bon Marche Department Store operated by Solomon Lipinsky. -A Jewish postman who delivered mail by the name of Barney Seigle. I was particularly interested in Barney because he had a sister by the name of Ester, who was in my class in �high school — a beautiful and affectionate student. -An industrialist named Seigfred Sternberg. -Dan Michalove, who worked at the first movie houses in town and finally advanced to Vice-President of Paramount Pictures and was put in charge of all their theaters in Australia. -Lou Pollock, who operated a shoe store at the corner of South Main and Eagle Streets. He once ran a shoe sale for $.98 a pair. -Leo Cadison, who came here for his health, operated a ladies clothing store on Pack Square, finally moved to Washington, D.C., and became an attorney by act of Congress. He was a speech writer for the Attorrney General of the United States. -An orthodox Rabbi by the name of Londow. -Morris Myers served as Exalted Ruler of the Old Elks Lodge #608. In 1883 Jews were arriving to become pioneers in the Asheville community. Some came to make a better livelihood and for opportunity. The moderate climate and mountain air attracted others to Asheville, a growing medical haven for the sufferers of chronic respiratory diseases. Congregation Beth-Ha-Tephila August 23, 1891, twenty-seven men met in Lyceum Hall and adopted a constitution for Congregation Beth-Ha-Tephila. Among the charter members were the Blomberg, Lipinsky, and Zagier families. It is noted that the dues were $10 a year, payable in advance. Lyceum Hall was the first home of the Congregation. It was rented from a fraternal order for $75 a year. Congregation Bikur Cholim Rabbi Londow became the rabbi for Congregation Bikur Cholim whose articles of incorporation were filed in the Court Clerk’s office in February 1899. The incorporators were J.B. Schwartzberg, A. Blomberg, Sam Feinstein, S.H. Michalove, A. Shenbaum, M. Zuglier, and R.B. Zagier. Since the community could not pay Rabbi Londow a decent wage, he operated a Jewish grocery store on the side. He was a kindly old gentleman with a big beard, wore his hat around the grocery store at all times except when a lady called him on the telephone. He would remove the hat during the conversation and put it back on his head after the phone call. I remember a big barrel of herring in the center of the store. Plain herring were 5 cents each and milk herring ten cents. A newly married lady in the Congregation once called Rabbi Londow and complained that a duck she bought from him was old and too tough to eat. Rabbi Londow asked what she expected him to do --- look down the duck’s mouth and count its teeth! The first religious services of Bikur Cholim I remember attending were on the second floor of a building at the corner of Patton Avenue and Church Street. It was early in the life of Bikur Cholim that the congregation split up due to a big argument. Half of the members formed another congregation and called it Anshei Hashuron. They rented a second floor of an apartment �house at the corner of Central Avenue and Woodfin Street. However, through the efforts of the impartial moderates, a compromise was reached and a permanent division averted. Nevertheless, the apartment was kept for a religious school. It was here I received my first Hebrew lesson. Rabbi Fox was teaching us the four questions to ask at our Passover meal. At this time my father would attend all the board meetings of Bikur Cholim. He would come home upset and nervous. Dr. Smith suggested he not attend any more Synagogue meetings due to his high blood pressure. Rabbi Fox was active on the 9th and 10th degrees of Scottish Rite Masonry. After his death I assumed his parts in these degrees and I am still on the degree teams. Orthodox rules and Hebrew School 75 to 100 years ago there were two synagogues in Asheville. My family belonged to the orthodox. The orthodox had strict rules for obeying the Sabbath which began Friday at sundown and ended Saturday night. The members of Bikur Cholim who owned an automobile would put them in the garage on Friday evening to observe the Sabbath and wouldn’t take them out until Saturday after sun down. Most of the members lived within walking distance of the Synagogue. To obey the Sabbath correctly you were not allowed to operate a business, spend money, smoke, strike a match, work, cook and many other activities were forbidden. Remember this was about 100 years ago. You weren’t supposed to tear paper. Now if you had a bathroom with paper on a roll, you tore the paper off for Friday in case it may be needed for the Sabbath. The same rule applies to outhouses with old Sears Roebuck catalogues. As far as I know none of these rules are observed today. In 1911, erection of a house of worship was started on South Liberty Street for Congregation Bikur Cholin. Although it wasn’t completed until 1916, the Hebrew School moved there in 1912. When I was 11 years old I attended Hebrew school conducted by the rabbi on Saturday morning in the edifice of the synagogue. The sanctuary contained nothing but pews and a coal stove for heat. The basement was used for storage and rest rooms. In the winter time the rabbi fixed the stove for a fire Friday so that it could be lit Saturday morning to produce heat for the Hebrew class. Since the rabbi shouldn’t light a fire or spend money on the Sabbath, he arranged for a boy in the neighborhood to light the fire Saturday morning. He placed a dime under a prayer book Friday and told the boy where to get a dime after lighting the fire on Saturday. Even in those days educational institutions had trouble with rebelling students. One real �cold morning the boy didn’t show up to light the fire. We were attending Hebrew class in sweaters, coats and overcoats and it was awful cold. I asked to be excused and coming up from the basement I reported to Rabbi Redunsky that the plumbing must have frozen as there was water leaking in several places. The Rabbi went to see about it. I advised the class that there were no broken pipes and suggested that we leave the building --- which we did --- not to return until warm weather. For your information, there was no water leaking. While my sisters Rosa and Hilda and I were still children and our parents were out of town for health reasons, Doctor Schandler’s father Dave Schandler, would invite us over to his house for meals, especially on Passover and other religious holy days. About this time when our house at 213 Broadway was being built, I was sliding down a sloping board and got a big splinter in my rear end. My father couldn’t get it out so he took me to Dr. Mann, the dentist, and he got it out --- no charge. The building of the Synagogue was completed in 1916 and the day before the eve of Rosh-Hashonah a fire completely destroyed the building. Mrs. Rosenfeld had a Jewish Boarding House next door and she cried and complained that she had just cleaned her house for Yontiff and smoke had dirtied the place up. The Masonic Temple was offered to us to use for the High Holy Day Services and we accepted. After the fire that destroyed Bikur Cholim Synagogue on South Liberty Street the second floor of the Sondley Building on Broadway was rented for the use of the congregation. A member of the congregation, a young man, forgot he had made a date with a waitress in the Langren Hotel and attended the meeting of the congregation. The lady waited in front of the Masonic Temple with a gun and took a shot at him after the meeting when he was leaving the building. She missed. After going to Hebrew School in the building we would stop and examine the hole the bullet made in the front wall of the building. The Cemetery In those days Asheville was a place that offered a cure for tuberculosis. Many sanatoriums were located in the hills around town. A Jewish man died in one of the sanatoriums and had no money or family. No cemetery in town would bury him unless someone paid $100 for the grave. It was then that nine Jewish men formed the “West Asheville Hebrew Cemetery Association Inc.” My father was the first president. In their bylaws it was stated that anyone of Jewish faith could be buried there. The price of a grave was $100 and if there was no one to pay it there would be no charge. The cemetery changed it’s name some years later to “Mt. Sinai Cemetery” and sometime after to “The Lou Pollock Memorial Park.” After father died, Lou Pollock became president. After his death, I was the vice-president and assumed the duties of the president. I conferred with David Adler and set up a meeting between the directors of the cemetery and members of Beth Israel. The ownership of the cemetery was transferred to Beth Israel. �The following names of the nine founders can be seen on a plaque at the entrance to the cemetery bearing the date 1916: Sam Feinstein, Isaac Michalove, Lou Pollock, S.W. Silverman, Sender Argentar, Rabbi Elias Fox, Dave Schundler, Barney Pearlman, Harry Finkelstein. Benevolent Societies Around this time my father felt that some homemade chicken soup would help the Jewish patients in the sanatoriums. A number of Jewish women set up a kitchen and once a week hot chicken soup was made available to the Jewish patients and to others who requested it. Rabbi Fox acquired business interests in Asheville and served as part-time Rabbi. He was associated with a local butcher who made kosher meat available. He would go by the homes of members and kill the chickens. In 1917, some of us young Jewish boys decided that we ought to have a YMHA or a Community Center in Asheville. Rabbi Fox met with us and suggested that we form a YMHA. He said a community center was for the community only, but a bigger and better organization would be a YMHA because it extended from coast to coast. He told us a story about when he first came to this country and wanted to see the Brooklyn Bridge. He found a man who could talk Yiddish and after looking at the bridge he asked why they built the bridge with a lot of little cables instead of one big cable. The man explained to him that if one or two cables broke it would not harm the bridge, but if there was one big cable and it broke the bridge would fall in. Rabbi Fox said that therefore us boys should be little cables and hold up the YMHA we were going to form. Mr. Sternberg and Mr. Leavitt Seventy-five years ago there was no United Way in Asheville. There were many local charitable organizations sponsored by churches, synagogues, houses of worship, also the YMCA, the Salvation Army, the Elks Lodge and the Jewish Ladies Aid Society. Lion Joe Sternberg’s father was active in civic, religious, fraternal organizations in Asheville. At that time he was collecting donations for the “Ladies Aid Society” of Asheville. He went to see Mr. Leavitt who operated a ladies ready to wear store on South Main St. near Pack Square. He wouldn’t donate more than $5 and this didn’t please Mr. Sternberg. Mr. Sternberg was the owner of the building in which Mr. Leavitt operated his store. He found Mr. Leavitt violated the terms of his lease because he sublet a portion of the store for a shoe department. Mr. Sternberg told Mr. Leavitt that he would have to give the Ladies Aid Society a suitable donation or vacate the building because he had violated the terms of the lease. They selected three men to determine what amount Mr. Leavitt should give the Ladies Aid Society. It was agreed that the amount they decided would be satisfactory to Mr. Sternberg and Mr. Leavitt. Mr. Sternberg selected a man to represent himself. Also Mr. Leavitt picked out the second man. They needed a man to represent both of them and finally selected my father. The committee decided that Mr. Leavitt should donate $500 to the Ladies Aid Society. �------ In 1936, the movements in founding a Jewish Community Center and to organize Federated Jewish Charities in Asheville was started by Julius Levitch through B’nai B’rith. In 1947 a testimonial dinner was held for his outstanding service to the Jewish Community. ----- On July 25, 1923, the Emporium Department Store owned by Jack Blomberg at the corner of Pack Square and South Main Street was destroyed by a major fire. It was feared that the entire block of Eagle Street would be destroyed. Many of the Jewish merchants who operated clothing stores in the block brought their insurance polices and books to the pawnshop across the street and requested that we put them in our safes which were two of the largest moveable safes in town. These two safes are now located at 21 Broadway. Flanders 20 About 75 years ago the Studebaker Corporation made two automobiles - the Flanders 20, 20 horsepower and the Emf. 30, 30 horsepower. My family owned a Flanders 20. To start the engine you used a hand crank in front of the auto. You lowered the spark control lever because if you didn’t, you might get a kickback on the crank and get your arm broken. If you had a flat tire, you had to raise the wheel with a hand jack, take the tire off and fix the inner tube with patches that you always carried with you. You had a hand pump to inflate the tire again. Some owners of the Flanders 20 bragged that sometimes they could drive up the hill on South Main Street (now Biltmore Ave.) from Depot St. to Pack Square in high gear and they didn’t have to shift to a second gear. There was a dirt road to Hendersonville. Some of it was red clay that would become slick when it rained. One small section of the road became very slick due to its location. There was a man there with a mule. For a small fee he would hitch the mule to the front of the auto and pull you out of the bad place with the help of the engine of the car. We were invited to a wedding in Hendersonville by Mr. Lewis whose sister, Rose, was getting married to a young attorney named Joe Patece. He practiced law in Asheville for many years. We took our Flanders 20 to the wedding with a couple of our friends. We had no trouble as it didn’t rain. Coming back to Asheville we got a flat tire near Skyland and stopped to fix it. We noticed a lot of berries growing near the road and we all began to eat them. A farmer saw us and accused us of stealing his berries. He took out a warrant for my father. The trial was to be heard by a Justice of Peace in Skyland. My father employed a young lawyer by the name of Bob Reynolds. Bob Reynolds in later years became a U.S. Senator. The Justice of Peace office was too small to hold the crowd that came to the trial so it was held under a large oak tree outdoors. I heard that Bob gave a great speech to the crowd and the Justice of the Peace ordered my father just to pay the farmer a small amount for the berries. �The moral of this event is: Don’t eat wild berries beside an old road. You are liable to have more troubles than a stomach ache. School In 1911, I started school at Montford Avenue Grammar School. In 1922, I went to UNC-Chapel Hill for 2 days, and had to come home to run the pawnshop. In the February 1922 graduating class in Asheville High School, there were 5 boys and 14 girls. Therefore, each boy was expected to take 3 girls to the Senior Class Dance of February 1922. Things were better when we had a dance for the entire school. There were three Jewish girls in the total 1922 class — Madeline Blomberg, Eva Sternberg, and Ester Seigle. I was the only student to take an automobile to school in 1922. It was a Paige make with a “bathtub back” model. I was the business manager of the “Hillbilly,” the school monthly magazine. I was given any study hall period off that I wanted to collect for ads that appeared in the magazine, so I would take my auto and a girl to help me from the study hall. After collecting for one ad we would ride over to the Charlotte Street Drug Store and participate in ice cream sodas for the balance of the study hall period. Pisgah 1922 In reporting from my historical records on Lion Joe Sternberg, president of our club in 1960-61, I’ve talked about his father, old man Sternberg and Joe’s sister, Eva. I reported that Lion Joe and I were seniors in the 1922 class of Asheville High School. Now, Lion Joe’s mother, Mrs. Sternberg, phoned me and advised me that she was entertaining Joe and three other members of the 1922 class with a trip to the top of Mt. Pisgah. Eva graduated in 1921 but wanted to go with them. Her mother asked if I would like to go and look after Eva if she went, and I told her that I would be delighted. They all picked me up the next morning and Mrs. Sternberg drove us to the home of Mr. & Mrs. Rufus O’Kelly who lived at the base of Mt. Pisgah in her 7 passenger Mormon automobile. We had lunch of possum and sweet potatoes. There was one dirt road (one way) to the top of Mt. Pisgah, 5 miles long. An auto had to go up in the morning at daylight and was allowed to come down after 1 PM until dark. We hiked to a cleared section. Mr. O’Kelly chaperoned the trip and built us a large bonfire and was fixing something to eat. Eva was unpacking some things and I noticed a large bottle of Bromo-Seltzer. I asked if she expected someone to have a headache. She said, “No, I opened a pint bottle of father’s bottled whiskey, took half of it and filled the Bromo-Seltzer bottle. Now you and I can have a drink before we eat.” �“That’s a good idea,” I said, “but what is your father going to say when he finds out?” She said, “no problem. I filled the empty half of the whiskey bottle with water.” At nighttime she and I sat around the fire drinking a few drinks of Bromo-Seltzer. ----- On Sundays in 1925, the Jewish crowd of teenagers and somewhat older boys and girls would gather at the home of the Sternbergs on Victoria Road. The Sternbergs had four children: Eva, Joe, Johanna, and Rose. One of the older girls in the crowd was named Jennie. One day I asked her how she managed to be so popular among the boys, and her answer was, “Well, I’m not so pretty, but I’m catchie”. ----- I dated Eva and one night I called at the house to take her out and her father yelled to us from the second floor of the house “Don’t you go to no road houses,” and Eva replied “What’s the matter papa --- you afraid we are going to find you there!” William Jennings Bryan On July 7, 1896, William Jennings Bryan delivered the “Cross of Gold” speech and won the Democratic party nomination for Vice President of the United States. In 1900 he was nominated again for Vice President. In 1908 he was nominated for President of the United States. Later in life he moved to Asheville and his home was at the corner of Evelyn place and Kimberly Avenue--just a few houses away from where Lion Jack Cole now lives. Mr. Bryan asked by father to order him a special made double barrel Parker shot gun with 28" barrels modified and choke bores, and a 23/4 inch drop. After receiving the gun he wrote my father a letter of thanks. I had this letter in my historical files and it disappeared. Now I don’t know whether to blame it on the Democrats or Republicans. III. Asheville in the 1930's Prohibition’s Waning Days It was in 1933, after Franklin Roosevelt was elected president of the United States, that the Volstead Act was repealed and it became legal to sell beer with an alcoholic content on October 1st. I was president of a mens social club, and it became my duty to get beer to serve to the members. This was a difficult job as none was available from distributors around Asheville. 1933 was the year of the Great Depression and Rabbi Goodkowitz bought a second hand truck from Harry Blomberg and was doing some hauling on the side to supplement his income from Bikur - Cholim. Rabbi Goodkowitz said he would go to Baltimore and get us a load of beer as he personally knew the owner of the Valley Forge Beer Company there. I gave him six hundred dollars of the club’s money and he left on a Monday to be back on Thursday. He didn’t show up, but came in the following Monday. The delay was due to the truck breaking down on the trip. Of course I was somewhat concerned but the club had a truck load of Valley Forge Beer �available. Leo Cadison saw me and advised that he had talked to the United States Senator Robert R. Reynolds, and the members were starting a campaign to sell the beer before October lst. Captain Fred Jones of the Asheville Police Department and a member of the house committee said he would not recommend selling it before the legal date. At the club that week, I noted about 150 members were present instead of the usual 40. Under “good and welfare” Senator Reynolds, a great orator, spoke in favor of selling the beer and said that we were all brothers in a non-profit and charitable organization, and it would be legal to sell it. Others who spoke in favor of selling the beer were Judge Philip Cocke, State Senator; A. Hall Johnson, Superior Court Judge; Dan Hill, Postmaster; Marcus Erwin, U.S.Attorney; Zeb Mettles, Superior Court Judge; Charles McRae, local attorney; and Leo Cadison. Leo Cadison made a motion that we advise the House Manager to put the beer on ice so that we could drink it after the meting. I advised Mr. Cadison that I could not accept a motion of an illegal nature but under Robert’s Rules of Parliamentary procedure he could appeal my decision. He appealed and I advised that the question to be voted on would be “Shall the decision of the chair stand” and there would be no discussion. The vote was unanimous against my decision (which suited me) and I instructed the secretary to take everything out of the minutes pertaining to beer, also to advise the house manager to put the beer on ice so we could have it after the meeting. He said that it was too late to advise him because the beer had been on ice for the past two hours. How to Finance a Pawnshop in a Depression It was the Depression of the 1930's. Our loans averaged $10 and we made them as low as 50 cents. The demand was great on loans on diamonds and jewelry. The top loan on a ½ carat diamond was $50 and $200 on a good grade carat. I was running out of money. I saw Perry at the Morris Plan Bank and we agreed to rent a lock box at the Wachovia Bank. Both of us would have a key to it. I would hypothecate the large size diamond and jewelry loans. The ways that worked is I would make the loan, get the cash from Perry on a 90 day note, and put the jewelry in the lock box as security. If the customer came to redeem his jewelry I advised him that jewelry was at the vault at the Wachovia for safekeeping and I would get it for him. This was working very well as the bank was making the legal rate of 6% on 90 day notes which were paid in 30 to 40 days with no refund for unearned interest. I was doing OK also. I charged interest at legal rates plus other expenses incident to the negotiations of the transactions. Then Mr. Wolcott comes to town. He took over the Morris Plan Bank and organized the Bank of Asheville. Perry, the new cashier at the Bank of Asheville, came to see me and said, “Mr. Wolcott advised that the bank wasn’t a pawnshop and to tell Finkelstein to pay off those 90 day notes.” It ooked like I was going to have to stop making large jewelry loans and try to meet the 90 day note. �But a miracle happened. A girlfriend of mine in the 1922 class of Asheville High School married a man from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, who later committed suicide. She came back to Asheville to live. She saw me and wanted to know if I could help her out. She said she was left a sizeable amount of life insurance and did I know of a safe place where she could invest some of it and get a decent return. I helped her out. Police Chief Beavers On the program of the Asheville Lions Club on July 8, 1992, Chief of Police Beavers talked about prostitution in Asheville and how the APD was trying to cut the activity down. I believe there may be a better way to cut the activity down. In the year 1900 Asheville had a population of 14,694. My historical records indicate at that time the red light district was known as the Eagle Terrace and was operated by a lady known as “Queen Elizabeth.” There were no problems. The Banov family in Charleston, SC, are part of my kin folks. Doctor Banov was a health physician for Charleston County, SC for 35 years. That was the longest any county health physician stayed in office. In talking to him I found out that the red light district in Charleston, SC, was a large house known as the “Red Brick” on Bensford St. The prostitutes had to have a health certificate from a local doctor renewed every 90 days, frame it, and hang it on the wall by her bed. They had Police Protection. In 1933 I was president of a fraternal order in Asheville. I had a good friend, Lt. Frank Hagan of the local police dept. who was also a member. We decided to drive down to Charleston, SC, for a convention. While in Charleston he said that he would like to go to the “Red Brick” on Bensford Street and get information for the Asheville Police Dept. on how they operated. I asked him how he expected to get in the place. He said “Don’t worry, I’ll get us admitted.” We went down to the “Red Brick” and Frank knocked on the front door. A lady opened a peephole in the door to look at us and Frank said “Back again.” We were then admitted to a large living room with red curtains. We picked out two of the girls in the living room and invited them to have a seat with us and have a drink. The only drink available was a coca-cola and the cost was 25 cents per drink. We asked them if their services would be available to members of a convention and they said that they were. The cost of a short stay would be $3 and for $5 a client could spend the night. I gave the girls $3 each and advised them that all we wanted to do was talk and get information for the convention - they were completely satisfied. �Now why don’t we get Chief Beavers to get someone like “Queen Elizabeth” to rent a place like a small hotel, or a large home with red curtains, or a place suitable for a whorehouse like the “Red Brick” in Charleston, SC. Serve soft drinks and ice cream at reasonable prices and furnish police protection. He might even get Lion Penland and me to open a pawnshop next door so that if a man didn’t have enough money to finance his trip to the place, he could pawn his watch or his gun. Don’t think all this would be legal, but its a thought anyway. The Preacher and the Bible Back in the depression days of the 1930s there was a preacher who pawned his Bible every Monday morning after Sunday’s services and redeemed it on the following Friday or Saturday for the next service on Sunday. I made the original loan of $10 and advised the preacher that he could get it out at a charge of $1 anytime in 30 days or if needed he could wait three months at no additional charge. In checking the records I found that he had pawned the Bible weekly on many occasions. On the next Friday morning when he came after his Bible I told him he didn’t owe anything on it that he had paid more carrying charges that the original loan. I told him to put that $10 bill he had next to the Ten Commandments in the Bible and the next time he needed $10 to take it out and put it back in the Bible after Sunday’s service. Just don’t bring the Bible back here for a loan. He didn’t. Overcoats During the depression of 1933 the pawnshop had 800 overcoats left at the beginning of the summer. The loans were from $3 to $7 each, and 80% of the loans were past due. There was a problem of moths. We put mothballs in the pockets of all overcoats and sprayed them with DDT. After the overcoats became more than 3 months past due we had them dry cleaned. We made a contract with the cleaners to pick up and return lots of twenty at 50 cents each. The owner of the cleaning company came in the shop and said that he wanted to buy an overcoat for his chauffeur. He tried on one and liked it so much that he said he would keep it for himself and give his to his chauffeur. Murders in Pawnshops and Helping Sheriff L. Brown You have probably read in the Citizen-Times about Mark Lane who was killed in a shooting during an armed robbery. His father, Ronald Lane, and he were co-owners of the Leicester Pawn Shop. In a former historical report I talked about Reggie, secretary to the Mayor of Miami Beach, who helped our delegation get faster transportation back to Florida from the International Lions Convention in Havana, Cuba. Lion C.A. Miller was on that trip. Later Reggie’s brother was killed in a holdup in his pawnshop on Flager Street in Miami. A lot of people classify a pawnbroker as a shylock. Those pawnbrokers I have known are kind people and are a asset to �any community they operate in. Of course you can exclude me. In November 1934 Sheriff Lawrence Brown of Buncombe County came to see me and said that he needed help. Beacon Manufacturing Company at Swannanoa was having labor trouble and a group from South Carolina was coming up to prevent the employees from going to work. He wanted to rent twenty 12 gauge shotguns to be used by special deputies to guard the entrance to the plant. I rented him twenty 12 gauge Harrington, Richardson shotguns for $1 each. He was successful in guarding the plant and they never fired a shot. The sheriff phoned me and said that he wanted to bestow upon me the honor of being a deputy sheriff and to come over and bring a photo for an identification card. I told him I didn’t know anything about enforcing the law. He said that was okay, to come over and he would swear me in and take out insurance on me. I asked him if it was life insurance. He said, “No, it was liability insurance and if I did anything wrong as a deputy sheriff that they would furnish me legal assistance in court.” I was sworn in November 15, 1934. I got a phone call the next morning from Mr. Seely, Manager of the Grove Park Inn. He said that he needed a gun for his watchman, a 38 Saturday Night Special with a 4" barrel. Sheriff Brown told him I could supply what he wanted. I told him I had it in stock and he asked me to bring it out to the Inn. I got in my dilapidated Ford touring car, drove to the front entrance of the Inn and started to go in, when the Bell Captain stopped me. He asked “What are you doing here?” I replied “I have a gun for your watchman and Mr. Seely asked me to bring it out to him.” “Well,” he said, “you take that gun to the back door. They have a barrel of money back there and they will pay you for it.” This was during the depression of the 30's and I had quoted Mr. Seely top price, and I was going to do anything legal to complete the sale so I went to the back door. Now I am happy to announce that at the present time I am allowed to go in the front entrance to the Inn. Guns and a Grandfather Clock A friend of mine had a valuable antique clock about 6 feet tall. He said that he was leaving home for a month and there was a lot of larceny going on. He would like to leave it with me for safekeeping. I told him to put it in the storage area on the second floor of the shop. A couple of days later a customer comes in and wants to buy a shotgun. It was summer �time and since hunting season didn’t open until fall I wondered why he wanted a shotgun. My salesman said all the shotguns and shells were stored on the second floor and he would take the customer up there. A little later I heard a big loud bang from the second floor. The salesman came running down and said that the customer had committed suicide with a shotgun. I called the Police Department and Dr. Baer, the coroner. Will Hampton, solicitor of police court and the chief came over. I went to the second floor with them and we found the customer passed out on the floor. I didn’t see any blood and upon examination we found part of his clothing blown away under one arm and he wasn’t injured. It’s almost impossible to reach the trigger of a 31" barrel shotgun when you have the muzzle at your chest. Evidently the customer must have tried to reach the trigger and the muzzle slipped under his arm when the gun fired. I remembered the grandfather clock and found that the discharge from the gun blew some of the plaster out of the wall about a foot from the clock. The clock was okay. Dr. Baer asked for a pen. He said that he wanted to find out if the man really passed out. He jabbed him several times with a pen and the man didn’t move. He really passed out. The chief said that the man had violated a law and he would take charge of him. The lesson from this event is: Don’t try to commit suicide - if you do you are liable to get arrested. The Silver Shirts In the 1930's William Dudley Pelly operated the “Silver Shirts,” a Nazi like organization in a building across the street from the Jewish Community Center on Charlotte Street. He published the “Liberation Weekly,” anti-Semitic literature with a circulation of eight thousand. In a parade, I was playing the saxaphone with the Asheville Shrine Club Marching Band, and William Rosenfelt was carrying the American Flag. Pelly in his “Liberation Weekly” published a story that we were disgraced by a Jew with a big nose carrying the American Flag. Pelly was arrested by the Buncombe County Sheriff’s Department in 1941 for selling unregistered stock. He was found guilty through the efforts of Julius Levitch, a young Jewish lawyer by the name of Alvin Kurtus, and a local attorney named R.R. Williams. IV. I Am A Dime I was born in the early part of the twentieth century at the United States Mint in Philadelphia, put in a roll with forty-nine other dimes and shipped to the Southern State Bank on Depot Street in Asheville, North Carolina, of which Mr. S. Sternberg was president. Mr. Sternberg had a son, Joseph, who later became president of the Asheville Lions Club. Mr. Sternberg took me and the forty-nine other dimes to his beautiful estate on Victoria Road in order to participate in a ten cent limit poker game with some of his friends. Someone �tipped off the police that a game was going on. The home was raided and Mr. Sternberg gave the names of the players as Mr. Aleph, Mr. Baze, Mr. Gimmel, Mr. Dolad, Mr. Hay, Mr. Vove, Mr. Zion and Mr. Hess. The “Asheville Citizen” carried a story after the trial that an attorney appeared in Police Court for Mr. Aleph, Mr. Baze, Mr. Gimmel, Mr. Dolad, Mr. Hay, Mr. Vove, Mr. Zion and Mr. Hess and paid their fines. Very few people knew that Aleph, Baze, Gimmel, Dolad, Hay, Vove, Zion, and Hess are the first eight letters of the Hebrew Alphabet. I got separated from the other dimes that came to Asheville with me. I found myself in the pocket of Chief Bernard of the Asheville Police Department. It was in November, 1906, that the Chief phoned Uncle Harry, the pawnbroker, and said that ne needed firearms and ammunition to equip a posse of fifty men in order to hunt Will Harris, a desperado. Will Harris had shot and killed five men, of whom two were city policemen. Uncle Harry furnished the posse with guns and ammunition, taking only the names of those receiving firearms. It was reported that Will Harris spent the night in a barn in Buena Vista. The posse surrounded him in a field near Fletcher and killed him. His body was brought to an undertaking establishment at 21 South Main Street, and hung out of the second story window in the building in order to show the people that he had been killed and quieten them down. The next day, the Chief called Uncle Harry and asked if all the firearms had been returned. Uncle Harry said they had and commented that the people of Asheville were honest and good citizens. (Now, Thomas Wolfe, famous author and native of Asheville used this event for a story published in the Saturday Evening Post September 7, 1937. He also used it in a chapter in his book “The Child by Tiger.” 2 Bob Terrell, writer for the Citizen-Times talked about this event at one of our meetings. In 1968 the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms in Washington required a record of every pistol, rifle, revolver that we received and disposed of, as well as the model, caliber, serial number and manufacturer. I recently checked the shop that I retired from 25 years ago and they have records of 33,000 transactions since 1968 on hand.) The Chief took me to Mr. Pappa’s Cafe on South Main Street, bought his lunch which consisted of a ten cent bowl of soup, a good supply of free crackers and catsup. Mr. Pappa’s brother operated the “Candy Kitchen” on Haywood Street. They were making a lot of stick candy in the shape of walking sticks, colored red and white. The cafe owner bought a half dozen walking sticks from his brother, using me as part payment. He said that he was going to put the candy on his Christmas tree. The next day Mr. Pappas, who lived on North Main Street, was coming to town in a rain storm. North Main Street was paved but all side streets were not. They had stepping stones in order to get across. Mr. Pappas slipped on a stepping stone, getting his shoes all muddy. He stopped at the Pack Square Shoe Shine Parlor, got a shoe shine for five cents and gave the shine boy a five cent tip. The next thing I knew I was placed in a deposit for the Wachovia Bank and I stayed in their vault until the year 1913. Uncle Harry picked me up to use in his petty cash. His son asked for his weekly allowance and I was given to him with four other dimes. The son boarded a South Main Street streetcar on Pack Square with a fishing pole and a can of worms. He got off 2 Move note here on Thomas Wolfe etc. �at the Swannanoa River and walked a hundred yards toward the French Broad. In a couple of house, he caught a nice string of hog suckers, horney heads and perch out of the beautiful clear waters of the Swannanoa River. On his way home, he gave me to the conductor, received five cents change and a transfer to the North Main streetcar in order to go home. The Conductor carried me around a few days and then gave me to a lady on the Riverside “open air” streetcar that ran to Riverside Park. Riverside Park was owned an operated by the Asheville Power and Light Co., the same people who owned the street car company that was finally gobbled up by Lion Smith’s Carolina Power and Light Co. This lady gave me to her husband who went down to the Elk’s Club and lost me in a rummy game to a distinguished looking attorney they called “Judge Cocke.” After the card game the “judge” sat around talking to brother Elks and drinking beer. He was famous for his knowledge of North Carolina, its people and places. He even talked about the house of ill repute in Asheville at the turn of the century known as the “Eagle Terrace” run by a lady called “Queen Elizabeth.” The next morning, Attorney Cocke defended a man in Police Court who was charged with stealing a pair of shoes and pawning them because he couldn’t wear them on account of being too small. The court ordered the man to leave town that day. The man said he was hungry and didn’t have any money. So Attorney Cocke gave me with other change to him. The man went down to the Asheville and East Tennessee Railway Company station at the corner of North Main and College Streets. They operated an electric vehicle between Asheville and Weaverville. The man smelled hot dogs cooking at D. Gross’s Hot Dog Stand next door, so he spent me for a hot dog and a coca-cola. Mr. Gross raised and educated a family of thirteen children from the money he earned at his hot dog stand. Mr. Gross carried me around until Saturday night when he went to Liggett’s Drug Store for some headache powders. He stopped in front of the drug store to listen to the Salvation Army band while they were having a preaching and musical session. He put me in a pot they were using to get donations for their annual Christmas party. The Salvation Army bought a second-hand truck from Lion Fred Brown to be used in delivering food and clothing to the poor people in town. I was used in this transaction. Lion Brown took me to a Lions Club meeting, where he used me to pay the dime he was fined by the “Tail Twister” for falling asleep during the program. The Tail Twister’s wife took possession of me and bought some ribbon at the Palais Royal, a large department store on South Main Street, operated by Mr. Morris Myers. I circulated around Asheville until 1918, and again, found myself in possession of Mr. Sternberg. He had a large junk yard and warehouse on Depot Street that bought and sold hundreds of cowhides. On all of his advertisements he carried the slogan “We buy anything and sell everything.” A circus came to town and didn’t have enough money to leave. They applied to Mr. Sternberg who was president of the Southern States Bank on Depot Street for a loan of $200. Mr. Sternberg made the loan and took the elephant as collateral. He complained he was losing money on account of the elephant eating so much. Otto Buseck who owned Middlemont Gardens at that time raised his own flowers at a hot house in Candler. He helped Mr. Sternberg out with the elephant - he bought the manure from him. The next thing I recall was four o’clock on the morning of November 11, 1918. The fire bell started to ring at the firehouse. The Armistice of World War I had been signed. People �gathered on Pack Square and built a huge bonfire. A fire truck came out of the firehouse to shine its spot light on the American flag flying at the top of the Pack Square flag pole. People were bringing their guns from home to the Square and shooting live ammunition into the air in celebration. The fellow who owned me brought a double-barrel shotgun to town and bought some black powder shells from Otis Green Hardware Store. (Mr. Green years later became Mayor of Asheville). The Chief of Police soon asked all stores selling ammunition to quit selling it as he was afraid someone would accidentally get shot. Mr. Green took me to the Southern Railway passenger station and bought a ticket to New York from Pat Mulvaney, ticket agent. Frank Mulvaney, a brother to Pat, was a chief clerk for the railroad. He later became councilman for the City of Asheville. Pat took me to the Union News Company’s news stand in the station and bought two five cent cigars. Later an engineer from the railroad bought a “Billboard” magazine, and I was given to him in change for a dollar. He took me to the Glen Rock Hotel across the street, and I was used in paying his bill. The clerk at the hotel bought some ice cream at Finley’s Drug Store next door. Mr. Finley gave me to his son, Bob, who took me to Montford Avenue School. Bob in later years became the Supreme Court Justice for the State of Washington. Bob, on leaving Montford Avenue School one day, took me to Mr. Book’s Grocery Store on Cherry Street and bought some cookies. The people across the street from Mr. Book’s Grocery Store had a lot of cherry trees on their land and they would pay boys from the school ten cents a quart to pick cherries. Lion Carol Rhinehart picked a quart of cherries and received me in payment. Lion Carl Rhinehart lost me in a marble game at school to Jack Roberts, who took me home to 219 North Main Street. A creek ran parallel to North Main Street and emptied into the French Broad. Jack found muskrats were running up and down the creek, so he recruited some of the neighborhood boys who acquired steel traps and caught and sold the muskrat hides to St. Penick and Company, at the corner of North Main and Lexington. The next thing I recall I was in the pants pocket of Lion Bill Michalove, who took me to the Galaxy Theater on Pack Square in order to see a serial movie called “The Black Hand.” Bill’s brother, Dan, was manager of the Asheville Theaters, and he finally became Vice President of Paramount Pictures, with headquarters in Australia. Since Bill had an “in” at the theaters in town, he would, on occasion, take his teen-age boy friends back stage at the Majestic Theater, located at the corner of College and Market Streets, to view the chorus girls at close range. Tommy Elkins, the stage manager, would keep a close watch on the boys in order to see that they behaved themselves. It was in 1922 when I was used as part payment for a second hand Jeffery automobile bought by Harry Blomberg. Harry took his Jeffery Auto to Asheville High School on Oak Street. Someone dropped me on Market Street and I rolled down a storm sewer. I stayed there for a long time and one day a man from the city’s water department found me and used me in a donation to the Democratic Party of Buncombe County. The chairman of the Party put me in a 10 cents slot machine at a social club. �The player who won me at the slot machine would always put me back, hoping to win more. I circulated in and out of the slot machine until 1950, when Lion Dr. Feldman won me. Dr. Feldman had a reputation of never buying anything unless he could get it wholesale. Dr. Feldman put me in the zipper change section of his pocketbook, and now I haven’t seen the light of day for twenty years. V. Jewish Jitter Bugs3 A bug is an insect. A Jitter Bug is an insect that jumps from place to place. A Jewish Jitter Bug is a professional bum, claiming Jewish faith— jumping around from city to city — living off the sympathy of his misinformed brothers - other Jews. For twenty years, I have seen this bunch of crooks take from $300 to $400 a year out of my community. I have learned their stories, their approach, their methods, and in fact, I can tell one just by the sight of him. I have seem them go north in the summer-time, and south in the wintertime. I have been awakened at all hours of the night by them, tracked down on Sundays and holidays. I have to put up with them coming in my place of business, with no courtesy to me, or respect for my customers. I have to watch them go away most always with a dissatisfied growl for what help they get, and seldom do I hear a “Thank You”. I have to battle their high-powered maneuvers of artistic chiseling without the help or appreciation of the Jewish Community in which I live. Who are these people? Why, they are Jews — sure, they are a bunch of professional racketeers that cost the Jewish public about one million dollars per year. If a Jew gets to a city and is broke - why, the other Jews are supposed to help him out. What he is or what he does or where he comes from - don’t make any difference - as long as he is a Jew that is all that is necessary. That is what you might think — but I don’t! There is not one Jewish transient in five hundred worthy of any help at all. They travel from place to place using the fact that they are Jews to prey upon other Jews. Many of them are ex-convicts, some just ordinary bums, and all of them liars. In this army of rogues, you will not find one who has a friend or relative who they could obtain help from. I have offered to wire to any person for hundreds of them, but they will tell ;you that all their friends or relatives are broke, or that they wouldn’t think of asking any of them for money. Common sense will tell you that, if a transient is worthy, there must be someone in this world who will help him to some extent. I am sure if any of you gentlemen were to find yourself broke in some far off place, that you would have at least one friend or relative to whom you could wire for help. These swindlers don’t want to get help from friends or relatives. They are just traveling around, enjoying life in a peculiar way, and living on the Jewish public, their so-called brothers. So, when these Jewish Brothers of ours come to town, what are we supposed to do with them? The only sensible thing we can do is to get rid of them as quickly and as cheaply as possible. The most common type of transient is the ordinary bum who claims that he has a job in a nearby city. All he wants from you is a couple of meals in a good restaurant, a room with a bath in a clean hotel, transportation to the place he is going, and maybe a pair of shoes, a couple of shirts and an overcoat. In order to get rid of this man quickly you must start talking before he does. So when I spot one, I start talking first. I ask him if he wants some help, and as soon as he says “Yes” I hand him a half-dollar, a meal ticket to a nearby restaurant, and tell him to get the hell out of town as fast as he can. Most of them will take this and leave because they know, through their grapevine system, that this is all they can get. 3 Cite reference �This system even informs them where to go to when you get to a town, and that is why nobody see the majority of these people, except myself. Some of them insist that they have a special story to tell you about their hard luck, and that they re different from the rest. These stories would make some of you break down and weep, but to me these stories are just a bunch of fabricated lies. Then, we have the group of transients who are physically disabled. Some are partially blind and crippled. They will claim to have tuberculosis, nervous indigestion, high blood pressure or what-not. Some will claim to have a combination or complication of diseases, or an assortment of ailments. If I am convinced that the transient is really ill, then I buy him transportation to the nearest point, and get him out of town as fast as I can. These people are never given cash for their transportation. A check is written to the Bus Station for their ticket, and the Bus Station has instructions to issue a ticket stamped “No Refund”. This method was adopted after I found out some cashed their tickets back in, in order to get cash, and bummed rides out on the highway to get to where they were going. A decent looking, elderly lady once appealed to me for help. She stated that she was almost blind, and was traveling with her son who was so crippled he couldn’t walk. She told me that she and her son had come in on a bus late the night before, and were at a small hotel near the bus station. She advised me that her son was ill in bed, that she was out of funds, could not pay her hotel bill, had nothing to eat, and no way to get to a nearby city where her son was going to enter a hospital. “A worthy case, at last!” I thought. I took her name, and ask her to come back in an hour, and I would see what I could do for her. I inquired at the hotel, and found that nobody by the name she gave me was there. I asked her about this when she returned, and she said that she did not use her real name since it was Jewish, and she didn’t want people to think she was Jewish. I called the hotel again and inquired about the new name she had given me, and the hotel informed me that the two of there were register there, but that her son seemed healthy, and was in and out of the hotel all day long. Asking her about this, she explained that her son went out only when he had to go to the drug store for medicine. It was cold and raining outside, so I called the hotel, and told them I would pay their bill, gave her enough for food, bought her two bus tickets, and gave her instructions to get out of town, by night without fail. It wasn’t long before I received a phone call from a Jewish person in town stating that this old lady had called on him, and pe proceeded to cuss me out for not giving her any help. To make a long story short--she called on three more persons in the city with the same story - that I would not help her. A couple of hours later I went by the hotel where she was staying and found that she had checked out and left in her room many pieces of clothing that had been given to her by these people she had called on in the city. Then we have the rabbis. They are a wonderful type of transient to deal with. They usually get to town on Friday, so you have to keep them over “shabbos”. That means an expense of two nights lodging and meals for a whole day. In fact, all the transients who arrive on Friday are “very religious” and won’t travel on Friday night or Saturday. I’ve had many rabbis promise to send me back the money I gave them, and never yet has one of them sent back a penny. In fact, of the hundreds of promises that I’ve had from all kinds of transients to return money given them, never has one kept his promise. The president of the orthodox congregation once phoned me, and told me that a rabbi was at this house m and that this rabbi was a very fine person, a scholar, and a gentleman, a man is in need, and suggested that I give him $5. I was just ready to leave my house, and I informed the president that I did not have time to interview the rabbi myself, but that if he thought the man was worthy, to give him $5, and I would return that amount to him later. I happened to pass by the president’s house just as the rabbi was leaving there, and I took a good look at him. The next morning, the same rabbi was at my place of business, wanting to know if I took care of the Jewish transients. He wasn’t a rabbi anymore, and he had changed his name. I told him to come along with me, and I would take him to the man who could help him. He got into the front seat of my automobile, and wanted to know where we were going, and when I told him we were going to see the president of the orthodox congregation, he jumped out and ran. I ran after him, and caught him on Patton Avenue. He started yelling like I was going to murder him, and a crowd started to gather, so I let him go, and he ran away again. I haven’t seen him since. �Another Rabbi once appealed to me for help, and he claimed to be a brother-in-law of the rabbi in Greenville, SC. Knowing the rabbi in Greenville personally, I didn’t believe he would send a brotherin-law of his out of the state to chisel the public, so I phoned long distance to inquire about the man. The rabbi in Greenville informed me that this transient had worried the community there a couple of days before, that he was no relation of his, but claimed to be a brother-in-law of the rabbi in Columbia. This man’s system was to claim relationship to a rabbi in a nearby city, in order to get help. I gave him $.50 and a meal ticket, and told him to get out of town before dark. He didn’t leave, instead he called on other Jews in the city with the same story, and collected around $5 by noon the next day. I finally contacted him, and told him again to get out of town, which he refused to do. So, I had the police department pick him up, and put him in jail. In about an hour, I went over, and talked to him in jail, and he changed his tune quite a bit. He was ready to leave town, so we let him out and this time I gave him fifteen minutes to disappear--and he did! Another rabbi once called on me, and stated that he was a representative of a Jewish institution somewhere in Europe, and wanted a donation for it. I explained to him that we had a Federated Jewish charities here to help him, and he would have to make his request through them. He kept insisting that I give him a donation personally, and I kept refusing him. He finally gave up, proceeded to cut me out in Yiddish, in a extremely loud voice — and this wasn’t all — he spit on the floor, slammed the door as hard as he could as he went out. I felt like killing him, and I think it would have been justifiable homicide. I could tell you many tales of my experiences with these human vultures, but one I remember in particular, was the time when a local judge phoned me, and told me that he would have to try a young boy by the name of Goldberg for vagrancy. He asked me to recommend to him what to do with the boy. I went over to see the defendant, and he happened to be one of the transients I had helped a few days before. He had ordered a sandwich at a small restaurant on the outskirts of town, refused to pay for it, so the restaurant man had him arrested. I told the judge of my experiences with the Jewish transients and asked him to make an example out of this boy, so he gave him thirty days on the road. In sentencing the boy, the judge told him that from now on every Jewish transient that was brought before him would get a road sentence. Then I really got criticized by the Jewish community for putting Jewish Boys on the Chain-gang. I was shown a copy of his criminal record from the FBI a few days later. He had been convicted of all kinds of offenses from stealing a bicycle to highway robbery. After the boy got out, he came to see me again, and feeling sorry for him, I bought him a ticket to Charlotte, and informed him that I would see that every transient from now on coming into Asheville would get a road sentence. Before that time, we had from ten to thirty transients per month appealing for help. It was interesting to note that we didn’t have another transient come into Asheville, for six weeks after the boy left, and for a long time after that, appeals for help were 50% of what they had been before that. It is my sincere recommendation that every Jewish transient, coming into Asheville, be put in jail for a certain length of time. This is the only way to cure this evil. Of course, the Jewish community wouldn’t stand for anything like that, they would rather give these damned hoodlums a few hundred dollars every year. Then, we have the transients coming through in family groups. These groups consist of a mother and father, with one or more children. They usually arrive in a dilapidated old automobile. Most of the time, the automobile needs some repairs before they can leave town in it; it never has any gasoline and usually needs a couple of quarts of oil. These parties are expensive and hard to handle, because you can hardly send small children on their way without a night’s sleep and proper food. Of course, I have some deserving cases, but I don’t class these with the transients. For instance, a man once came in to see me, with the story that he had tuberculosis, and he had come down here from Detroit as his doctor had recommended this climate to him. He expected to get a job as an elevator boy, or something of the sort, and he was under the impression that the climate here would cure him while he worked. Well, the man was broke, and was waiting for some financial help from his brother whom he had written a few days before. I gave the man $4 and he promised to pay me back as soon as he heard �from his brother. He came back the next day. He had heard from his brother. He showed me the letter and his brother enclosed $10 which was all that he could send. He told me that he was unable to find work, and was going to start back for Detroit. He offered me the $4 I had given him. I asked him how he expected to get back to Detroit on $7, and he told me that he would have to hitch-hike. I told him to keep the $4, and wish him the best of luck, and while I am not a doctor, I was under the opinion from his looks that his health would never permit him to hitch-hike back home and get there alive. So for twenty years, I have dealt with the bunch of beggars, coming from North, South, East, and West. They have become a part of my life, and if I could get out of this job right now, I am sure I would miss this horde of gangsters that hop around from place to place like a bunch of grasshoppers in a clover patch. VI. War Years4 Pilot on 023 On admission to the Air Force in 1943 I was interviewed as to what activity I had in a business or profession, also what experience I had in religious, fraternal or civic affairs. I told them I was just a clerk in a pawnshop. I didn’t tell them that I once: was president of a cemetery. was an owner of a company that built floats and decorated the town for the first Rhododendron Festival in Asheville. supplied the Asheville Police Dept. and the Sheriff’s Dept. with guns and ammunition. I didn’t tell them anything about my civic, fraternal, religious or social activities. I was sent to Tishomingo, Oklahoma for training in the Oklahoma State College for Agriculture to be an air force clerk in engineering. After graduating from the clerk’s school in Tishomingo, I felt I would have an easy life in the Air Force being an engineering clerk. But my duties from Tishomingo to the islands in the South Pacific were: kitchen police mess hall fireman mess hall garbage director cleaning chickens policing grounds digging ditches hauling poles hauling fire wood hauling coal fighting forest fires 4 . A more complete account of Leo Finkelstein’s experiences during World War II is found in his Letters from Leo: Letters to the Asheivlle Lion’s Club (Center for Appalachian Studies: Appalachian State University, Boone, NC, 1996) �assorting merchandise at warehouse assorting salvage merchandise smashing tin cans hauling water finance clerk detail clerk runner for headquarters stacking lumber cleaning rifles and machine guns building roads repairing bridges laying concrete operating gasoline pump telephone operator making inventories of supplies acting C.Q. pulling weeds and grass watering trees loading and unloading trucks loading and unloading freight cars loading barracks bags on boats and trucks cleaning hatches on boats latrine orderly painting machinery communications clerk and finally engineering clerk for the 394th Squadron, 5th bomb group of the 13th Air Force. Getting a good grade on my education at Tishomingo and experience in travel to the South Pacific I thought I was ready to do my job. My first difficulty was when A pilot comes in to see me after a combat mission on a B-24 Bomber number 023 and said that he failed to put on his reporting form #Y that the tachometer indicator occilates excessively, would I please write it in the form for him. I told him I would. You know, I didn’t know what the h--- he was talking about and I couldn’t even spell it. Tokyo Rose Tokyo Rose was an American girl broadcasting from a radio station in Japan during World War II. Her broadcast was received by the 13th Air Force in the Admiralty Islands located �in the South Pacific area. She played recorded American music in her broadcast. She advised us that our wives and sweethearts were dating the 4 F’s - the men who stayed out of military service and they would go to drive inns for hamburgers and coca-colas. She also said that the Japanese would be waiting for our B-24 bombers scheduled for a mission in the morning with anti-aircraft guns and fighter planes. Radios were scarce on the island. I wanted to listen to Tokyo Rose so I wrote home and requested a small radio to be shipped to me. They advised that the smallest radio weighed too much to be shipped overseas by parcel post but they would take it apart and ship it in two packages which was acceptable at the post office. The radio department of the 5th Bomb Group said they would be glad to put the radio together for me. When I received the shipment in two packages I gave it to them. They repaired it the best they could. I found that when I turned it on it would work for about a minute and then quit receiving. They couldn’t find the trouble. One day I took a screw driver, tightened all the screws and thought I found the trouble. I put the radio on the table in the tent, started it receiving and in one minute it stopped. I was disgusted - I hit the radio, knocked it off the table. It hit the floor, bounced about 2 feet and started playing. It was okay from then on. In about a week Captain Gardner in the engineering department sent word that he wanted to see me as soon as possible. I thought I had fouled up on keeping his engineering records but he had this to say: Corporal Finkelstein we are having trouble repairing the radio on airplane No. 022 and we understand that you are the only one in the 394th Squadron that can solve our problem. Will you help us? I forgot what I said, but I couldn’t figure out how to knock an airplane off the table. Topless Women Now if you read the morning paper, you noticed headlines on the front page: “Topless Night Club Opens in Asheville.” Well, you didn’t need a night club to see topless women on those South Pacific Islands during WWII. The trouble was they would move all the women to another island close by the island we occupied. We built a motor boat made of two airplane belly tanks and a small power unit so that we could go over and see the women at another island. I didn’t go over to see the women. I wasn’t afraid of them, but I was afraid the boat might sink. �Sergeant Joe In 1944, Sergeant Joe, the mess sergeant in my outfit in the 13th Air Force located in the South Pacific during World War II, received a shipment of canned corn. Instead of using it for chow, he built a still in a fox hole and made corn whiskey out of it. Joe ran a road house in Greenville, South Carolina before the war and in a neighborly spirit he invited me to drink what I wanted of the corn whiskey and he helped me trade watch bands for coca-cola syrup and ice cream from a Navy C.B. outfit located near by. After the war, he operated his road house in Greenville again. He came to see me and advised that they had arrested his partner for hauling whiskey in Buncombe County and wanted to know if I could help him. I told him that I knew the Chief of Police and Sheriff Brown and I would be glad to see what the situation was. He told me they couldn’t help as it was the Federal authorities that arrested his partner. Thinking of how to get him a light sentence I asked Joe if his partner was in the armed forces and he said that they had turned him down because he has a heart murmur. I told Joe to send him to Dr. Feldman and I’d get the report from him as to his heart murmur. Dr. Feldman told me he had a heart murmur and as Federal Physician he would advise Judge Warlick about in federal court. At the trial Joe’s partner went scott free. Later he came to see me with a roll of hundred dollar bills and wanted to pay me for getting him off. I refused the money and told him that Joe had helped me out during the war and what I did was a favor to Joe. Later he brought me six fifths of Scotch for a present, which I kept. While overseas, besides having corn whiskey made by Joe and medical alcohol diluted 50% by water and flavored with burnt sugar, we were able to buy bonded whiskey from the flying personnel who didn’t drink their ration. Price was $60 per fifth. They were looking for souvenirs so I wrote Nat Friedman to send me a Japanese hare-kari knife from his antique store. He sent me a similar one. It was a circular shape Turkish knife with Turkish letters on it. My cost was $4. It looked like a hare-kari knife. I gave it to Sergeant Joe and asked him to see if he could trade for a Fifth of bonded whiskey. He reported later that he got two fifths for it. Sgt. Smokey Joe’s home is just a little bit south of Asheville, NC. He was mess sergeant for the 394th squadron, a good guy, and a GI who could sympathize with all the other GI’s who had to eat the food he prepared. Before the war Smokey Joe owned a road house on the highway going south from Asheville and after talking to him I found that I had patronized his institution on numerous occasions during my younger years. Since we were practically neighbors in civilian life, we felt that we should continue over there as good neighbors and so we were. There is no better friend in the army than a cook because when you get hungry, he is the only man who can help you out. In passing I might mention that Smokey Joe, Starvin Marvin and I have on numerous instances enjoyed eating surplus stocks of food from the Mess Hall. Smokey Joe told me about Sheriff Brown, in Asheville, taking his automobile away from him once because the sheriff had found some whiskey in it that he was transporting to his road house. �Now Smokey is fighting to get his freedom - his freedom to go home and dodge Sheriff Brown some more, and there is Starvin Marvin who wants to go home and see his wife and two year old boy, a child that he has never seen, and so it is with me - I want to go home - I just want to go home. VII. After the War Sgt. Smokey Joe After the war Smokey Joe opened his road house again near Greenville, SC. He came to see me and advised that they had arrested his partner for hauling whiskey in Buncombe County and wanted to know if I could help him out. I told him I knew the Chief of Police and Sheriff Brown and I would be glad to see what the situation was. He told me they couldn’t help as it was the Federal Authorities that arrested his partner. Thinking of how to get him a light sentence, I asked Joe if his partner was in the armed forces and he said that they had turned him down because he had a heart murmur. I told Joe to send his partner to Lion Dr. Feldman who was Federal Physician and I would get a report from him as to his heart murmur. Lion Dr. Feldman told me he had a heart murmur and as a Federal Physician he would advise Judge Warlick about it in Federal Court. At the trial, Joe’s partner got a suspended sentence. Later he came to see me with a roll of hundred dollar bills and wanted to pay me for getting him off. I refused the money and told him that Joe had helped me out during the war and what I did was a favor to Joe. Later he brought me six fifths of scotch for a present which I kept. Corn Whiskey at Road House Before the war, road houses would hide the corn whiskey they served their guests in a container under a bed. When the sheriff’s dept. would raid the joint, they usually wouldn’t look for it there. One night they found it and an article appeared in the Asheville Citizen that the sheriff’s dept. confiscated a gallon of whiskey hid in a container at a road house. J im Dwelbiss and Beaver Lake Returning home from World War II, I was interested in building a house to live in. Jim Dwelbiss, president of the Asheville Lions Club 1941-1942, said that he had a lot across the street from his home on Westwood Road in Lakeview Park and if I would build a one story house so he could see Beaver Lake over the roof of my house, he would give me a good deal. I acquired the lot and built the house. He told me that as a resident of Lakeview Park I should take on some activity for the benefit of the park. He took me to the annual meeting of the property owners and I was elected as one of the three commissioners - no salary. When I met with the other two commissioners they told me I �had charge of the lake and fishing and they would back me up in anything I wanted to do. I got phone calls. I got a phone call from a resident and he says “Stop the fishing, the fish are diseased.” I contacted the game warden from the NC Wildlife Resources Commission and we found a service station by the creek that furnished the lake with water that had put old oil from automobiles in it and it had killed a few fish. I get a phone call from a lady that an awful looking man wearing overalls was fishing. I asked her did she expect him to wear a tuxedo. I get a call advising that two women indecently dressed were near the dam of the lake. I found them to be the wives of the two commissioners sun bathing. I found two men swimming in the lake, which was against the rules. They told me they would swim and that I couldn’t stop them. I told them to swim if they wanted to and that a sewer line had broken and was emptying in the lake and would probably get typhoid fever - they stopped swimming. I found a group of women in bathing suits at the lake near Glenn Falls Road with a photographer. I found them to be local beauticians getting their picture with the lake in the background. They were using the picture on a cover of a program for a State Convention of Beauticians in Asheville. Fishing in the lake was allowed for licensed property owners only. I saw a man standing at the edge of the lake for 30 minutes just looking. On investigation I found he had a line tied to his belt that ran down the inside of his pants leg over his shoe into the lake. On the line he had a float and a baited hook. When the fish would bite and pull the float under he would kick his leg, hang the fish, pull it in and nobody would know he was fishing. I appreciated what Lion Dwelbiss had done by getting me elected to be fish commissioner of Beaver Lake. But I got a call that I was going to be elected president of Congregation Beth-Ha-Tephila and that construction would be started soon on a temple at Liberty and Broad Sts. I thought I could use some religion so I didn’t run again for commissioner of Lakeview Park and I took up my duties as president of Beth-Ha-Tephila. I completed the building of financing of the new temple in two years. I was tired out and hoped that maybe I could get some rest by being fish commissioner again at Beaver Lake. Sternberg Hunting Rats �Joe Sternberg was president of the Lion’s Club in 1960-61. His father Seigfred Sternberg, came over to the U.S. at the turn of the century, procured a horse and wagon, drove around western North Carolina buying cowhides and junk. He finally opened a junk yard on Depot Street and became one of the largest cowhide dealers in the United States. Lion Joe was my classmate in the A.H.S. class of 1922. He would rent a freight car on the local freight train to Murphy and buy cowhides at the stations where the train stopped. I was watch inspector for the Southern Railway and would travel on the same train, give the employees a certificate that in my opinion the watch they had wouldn’t vary over 30 seconds a week. Going west you could go as far as Waynesville by auto and then by train to Murphy. Lion Joe Dave, president of the club in 1932, was construction engineer for the Sternberg Co. who supplied steel for the construction of buildings. Later he organized the Dave Steel Co. Old man Sternberg did well financially and became president of the Southern State Bank on Depot St. He became active in religious and fraternal affairs in Asheville. He built a big home on Victoria Drive. He didn’t like the help he was getting in Asheville so he imported a young beautiful maid from Germany. The maid went down to get an item at the garage and found Mr. Sternberg there. Mr. Sternberg got fresh with the maid, the maid picked up a 22 caliber rifle and shot him. The wound wasn’t serious. The next morning a news item appeared in the Asheville Citizen with the head line: “Sternberg Hunting Rats in the Garage.” Irving S. Cobb and Grove Park Inn About sixty years ago my friend Fred Bradley was night clerk at Grove Park Inn. He would tell me about the operation of the Inn. A guest would find his home town newspaper at his breakfast table. If he paid for anything, what change, if needed, would be given to him in uncirculated money. The only entrance to the Inn’s grounds was a large gate off of Macon Ave. The gate was closed at 10 PM as the noise from any automobile going in and out would disturb the guests. Irving S. Cobb, famous humorist, was spending a couple of days at the Inn. A little after ten o’clock one night he tried to get his auto into the Inn’s grounds. He found the gate locked. He had to park his car on Macon Avenue. He walked to the Inn and complained loudly about it. He was advised that the Inn didn’t welcome any unusual noises after 10 PM. In a little while he came down to the lobby from his �room carrying his shoes, nothing on his feet but his socks, walked very quietly to Fred Bradley, the night clerk, and whispered to him “I want to check out.” In a couple of days a news item appeared in the Asheville Citizen written by Irving Cobb with the headline: “The Bunk of Buncombe.” Read news article from Citizen-Times on suicide This reminded me of a historical event years ago when I was selling guns. A customer said he wanted an inexpensive pistol to keep in his home and he just obtained a permit to buy it. I sold him a 22 cal. Iver Johnson pistol. This type gun was later known as a “Saturday Night Special.” When I completed the sale I said “Thank you mister.” He said “Don’t call me mister, I’m a doctor. You call me doctor.” I said, “Thank you doctor.” He took the gun home and committed suicide with it. Now: I got to thinking if he bought the gun today he would have to make application to get a permit and wait two or three days for the permit to be issued. Maybe if he had to wait that long for a permit, he might have changed his mind about the suicide. Then: As a doctor I wondered why he didn’t write a prescription for some high powered sleeping pills, take several of them and just go to sleep and not wake up. I think I got an explanation. If any of you had to buy prescription drugs today, you know now expensive they are. And if they were that expensive back then when this happened, I guess the doctor felt he could save money by committing suicide with a “Saturday Night Special.” Problems in Water and Sewer Systems If you’ve read the newspapers lately, you know that the city of Asheville has problems in their water and sewer systems. I had some personal problems, so I phoned doctor #1. The lady answering the phone said that she would advise his nurse. His nurse was busy with a patient and the nurse would phone me later. The nurse phones me in about an hour. I asked the nurse if I was supposed to talk to her in a dignified way or call everything by its right name. She said to do what I think best, so I tell her what’s troubling me and that it had the color of Coca-Cola or Pepsi-Cola, I don’t know which. She said she would talk to the doctor and call me back. She calls back and says I ought to see doctor #2 who is a specialist with my troubles. He has a Rotto Rutter. I found out a Rotto Rutter is a gadget used by plumbers on home work. I see doctor #2 and he advises that he can’t find anything of a serious nature wrong. I go back to doctor #1. He makes several tests. He tells me to go back to doctor #2, that he is going to advise him of what he found and would ask him to make a complete examination. �Back in doctor #2's office, an assistant brings in a machine for examination. He tells me that this machine is a new one, and it don’t hurt like the old one. After the examination, the doctor makes an appointment for me to go to the hospital for a I.V.P. examination and bring the x-rays back to him. I take the x-rays back to doctor #2's office and the doctor says that they look pretty good, that all I need would be surgery and a 2 to 3 days stay in the hospital or it may be 6 days. I go back to the hospital for pre-admission tests and they do all the same tests that were done two or three times before and the nurse asked me a lot of personal questions. She asked if I had a BM. I knew that AM meant from midnight to noon and PM meant the time from noon to midnight. So I figured out the BM meant a BAD MORNING, so I told the nurse that I had a BM for about a week. I was told to report for surgery the next Wednesday at 6:30 AM, somewhat earlier than I usually get up. I get a phone call from doctor #2's nurse Tuesday night advising that the doctor is ill and would be unable to do the surgery and it would be postponed. Later I get a phone call that the surgery had been rescheduled for March 2nd at 1 PM. I had 5 days to review the situation and I think I was mentally, physically, and maybe financially ready for surgery. End of Report. I now feel good. Finis I had the honor of serving as president of Beth-Ha-Temphila in 1948 and 1949 during the building and financing of the new temple at Liberty and Broad Streets. I was Master of Ceremonies for the 50th Anniversary Banquet program of Beth-HaTehphila in 1941. I also presided at the 75th Anniversary Banquet in 1966. I have put in my application to preside at the 100th in 1991. Unless we are Indians, our ancestors came from Foreign Lands. I am thankful they did what they did so that I could have the privilege of growing up in a city like Asheville, enjoy this great country of ours---a land of religious freedom and opportunity. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Subject The topic of the resource Finkelstein, Leo, 1905-1998--Family Jews--North Carolina--Asheville--History PDF Text Text In Nineteen Five I became alive and what I found around this town Was joy and tears for 50 years. Origins In 1799, my great-great grandfather was a chicken farmer in the town of Pushalot, in the state of Lithuania, in the Soviet Union. It was a hard life in the town of Pushalot. The winters were nine months long and unendurably cold. The summers were hot and rainy. There were occasional pogroms or Russian Cossaks rampaging through the streets terrorizing the countryside, gypsies stealing everything in sight, including sometimes even children, and always there was the threat of Siberia. My ancestors, like most Jews, were very poor, hard working and suffering. My greatgreat grandfather bought eggs from all the chicken farmers, packed them carefully on a wagon, covered them with straw to keep them cool and fresh and rode many miles to Kovna, Vilna and Riga to sell the eggs at the big city markets. In 1825, my great grandfather served as a rabbi in Pushalot. In 1872, my grandfather opened a kretchma in Pushalot. A kretchma is a Russian inn somewhat like out modern motels, only they didn’t have swimming pools or air conditioning. It was a place travelers could stop for food or drink or spend the night. One day a Bolshevik on horseback stopped at the Inn and drank a lot of vodka. He got fresh with my grandmother, who I understand was a good looking girl in those days. My father, a teenage boy, picked up a piece of stove wood, hit him on the head and knocked him out. That was an awful crime in Russia for a Jewish boy. My grandfather made a temporary settlement with the Russian and gave him 50 rubles. My father thought that they may send him to jail or Siberia, so he stole his way across the border into Germany. He didn’t like Germany, so he left Germany and made his way to South Africa. He went to work as a house painter in Johannesburg. He became ill from the lead poisoning in the paint. There were no United Way or Federate Jewish Charities down there, but someone took pity on him and nursed him back to health. He sold cigarettes and sandwiches at a stock exchange and he finally opened a resturant. �In 1898, right before the English-Boer War, my father sold his resturant for gold coins, got a money belt, and went down to Cape Town. He had a cousin in Australia and a brother in Jacksonville, Florida. By a flip of a coin he came over to Jacksonville, Florida. In Jacksonville, Florida, he went to night school to learn to read and write English. In 1900, he became ill and the doctor in Jacksonville told him the only place to go to get cured would be the mountains. He came up to Asheville, and Doctor Smith told him he would die of anything except what they sent him to Asheville for, so that he might as well go back to Jacksonville. He like Asheville so much he decided to stay here. In 1903, he opened a pawn shop at 23 South Main Street (now Biltmore Avenue). He married Fanny Sherman from Newport News, Virginia, and made their home in an apartment on Ashland Avenue. In 1905, my father became a citizen of the United States. Among the organizations he joined were the Asheville Board of Trade (now The Asheville Chamber of Commerce), the Fraternal Order of Eagles, Suez Temple of the Oramatic Order of Khorosson, Lodge #1401 BPO, Elks, Mt. Herman Masonic Lodge, Scottish Rite Masonic Lodge, Oasis Temple of Shriners, Congregation Bikur Cholim (now Beth Isreal), and Congregation Betha-Ha-Tephila. So, the Twentieth Century began with: 1. The pawnbroker named Finkelstein. 2. S.H. Friedman, who operated a furniture store. He came to Asheville from Maryland, where he peddled tinware. His son, Nat Friedman, later operated the Susquehana Antique Co. 3. A Jewish lawyer by the name of Goldstein. 4. A Jewish plumber by the name of A.J. Huvard. He married E.C. Goldberg’s sister. E.C. Goldberg ran a news stand next to the Imperial aTheater on Patton Avenue for years. 5. A Jewish dentist by the name of I. Mitchell Mann. 6. Harry Blomberg’s father who came to Asheville in 1887. He operated the Racket Store on Biltmore Avenue for many years. 7. The Palais Royal Department Store operated by Morris Meyers for 40 years. He was a charter member of Congregation Beth-Ha-Tephila and he came to Asheville in 1887. 8. The Bon Marche Department Store operated by Solomon Lipinsky. 9. A Jewish postman who delivered mail by the name of Barney Seigle. I was particularly interested in Barney because he had a sister by the name of Ester, who was in my class in high school — a beautiful and affectionate student. 10. An industrialist named Seigfred Sternberg. 11. Dan Michalove, who worked at the first movie houses in town and finally advanced to Vice-President of Paramount Pictures and was put in charge of all �12. 13. 14. their theaters in Australia. Lou Pollock, who operate a shoe store at the corner of South Main and Eagle Streets. He once ran a shoe sale for $.98 a pair. Leo Cadison, who came here for his health, operated a ladies clothing store on Pack Square, finally moved to Washington, D.C., and became an attorney by act of Congress. He was a speech writer for the Attorrney General of the United States. An orthodox Rabbi by the name of Londow. It was in 1883 Jews were arriving to become pioneers in the Asheville community. Some came to make a better livelihood and for opportunity. Morris Myers served as Exalted Ruler of the Old Elks Lodge #608. The moderate climate and mountain air attracted others to Asheville, a growing medical haven for the sufferers of chronic respiratory diseases. Congregation Beth-ha-Tephila It was on August 23, 1891, twenty-seven men met in Lyceum Hall and adopted a constitution for Congregation Beth-Ha-Temphila. Among the charter members were the Blomberg, Lipinsky, and Zagier families. It is noted that the dues were $10 a year, payable in advance. Lyceum Hall was the first home of the Congregation. It was rented from a fraternal order for $75 a year. Congregation Bikur Cholim Rabbi Londow became the rabbi for Congregation Bikur Cholim whose articles of incorporation were filed in the Court Clerk’s office in February 1899. The incorporators were J.B. Schwartzberg, A. Blomberg, Sam Feinstein, S.H. Michalove, A. Shenbaum, M. Zuglier, and R.B. Zagier. Since the community could not pay Rabbi Londow a decent wage, he operated a Jewish grocery store on the side. He was a kindly old gentleman with a big beard, wore his hat around the grocery store at all times except when a lady called him on the telephone. He would remove the hat during the conversation and put it back on his head after the phone call. I remember a big barrel of herring in the center of the store. Plain herring were 5 cents each and milk herring ten cents. A newly married lady in the Congregation once called Rabbi Londow and complained that a duck she bought from him was old and too tough to eat. Rabbi Londow asked what she expected him to do --- look down the duck’s mouth and count its teeth! The first religious services of Bikur Cholim I remember attending was on the second floor of a building at the corner of Patton Avenue and Church Street. It was early in the life of Bikur Cholim that the congregation split up due to a big argument. Half of the members formed another congregation and called it Anshei Hashuron. They rented a second floor of an apartment house at the corner of Central Avenue and Woodfin Street. However, through the efforts of the impartial moderates, a compromise was reached and a permanent division averted. �Nevertheless, the apartment was kept for a religious school. It was here I received my first Hebrew lesson. Rabbi Fox was teaching us the four questions to ask at our Passover meal. At this time my father would attend all the board meetings of Bikur Cholim. He would come home upset and nervous. Dr. Smith suggested he not attend any more Synagogue meetings due to his high blood pressure. Rabbi Fox was active on the 9th and 10th degrees of Scottish Rite Masonry. After his death I assumed his parts in these degrees and I am still on the degree teams. Hebrew School In 1911, erection of a house of worship was started on South Liberty Street for Congregation Bikur Cholin. Although it wasn’t completed until 1916, the Hebrew School moved there in 1912. Hebrew classes were scheduled every Saturday through the winter. The only heat we had was from a large coal stove in the center of the sanctuary. The stove was prepared for a fire to be lit on Saturday morning before the Hebrew class met. Since the Rabbi wouldn’t light a fire on the Sabbath he arranged for a neighborhood boy to come in and light it. He would place a dime under a prayer book and after the boy had lit the fire he would tell the boy to get the dime 75 to 100 years ago in Asheville. Now about that time there were two synagoges in Asheville. My family belongs to the orthodox. from under the prayer book. The orthodox had strict rules for obeying the sabbath which began Friday at sundown and ended Saturday night. So if you owned an automobile you put it in your garage Friday evening and took it out Saturday night after sundown. You walked to religious services at the synagogue on the sabbath. To obey the sabbath correctly you were not allowed to operate a business, spend money, smoke, strike a match, work, cook and many other activities were forbidden. Remember this was about 100 years ago. You weren’t supposed to tear paper. Now if you had a bathroom with paper on a roll, you tore the paper off for Friday in case it may be needed for the sabbath. The same rule applies to outhouses with old Sears Roebuck catalogues. As far as I know none of these rules are observed today. When I was 11 years old I attended Hebrew school conducted by the rabbi on Saturday morning in the edifice of the synagogue. The sanctuary contained nothing but pews and a coal stove for heat. The basement was used for storage and rest rooms. In the winter time the rabbi fixed the stove for a fire Friday so that it could be lit Saturday morning to produce heat for the Hebrew class. Since the rabbi shouldn’t light a fire or spend money on the sabbath, he arranged for a boy in the neighborhood to light the fire Saturday morning. He placed a dime under a prayer book Friday and told the boy where to get a dime after lighting the fire on Saturday. One real cold morning the boy didn’t show up to light the fire. We were attending Hebrew class �in sweaters, coats and overcoats and it was awful cold. I asked to be excused and coming up from the basement I reported to the rabbi that the plumbing must have frozen as there was water leaking in several places. The rabbi rushed downstairs to investigate the troubles and the Hebrew class rushed out of the synagogue not to return until warm weather. For your information, there was no water leaking. Even in those days educational institutions had trouble with rebelling students. The boy that was to light the fire didn’t show up. It was very cold that day. I asked to be excused and went downstairs. When I came back I reported to Rabbi Redunsky that the pipes had froze and broke. The Rabbi went to see about it. I advised the class that there were no broken pipes and suggested that we leave the building --- which we did --- not to return until warm weather. The member of Bikur Cholim who owned an automobile would put them up Friday afternoon to observe the Sabbath and wouldn’t take them out until Saturday after sun down. Most of the members lived within walking distance of the Synagogue. The building of the Synagogue was completed in 1916 and the day before the eve of Rosh-Hashonah a fire completely destroyed the building. Mrs. Rosenfeld had a Jewish Boarding House next door and she cried and complained that she had just cleaned her house for Yontiff and smoke had dirtied the place up. The Masonic Temple was offered to us to use for the High Holy Day Services and we accepted. The Cemetary In those days Asheville was a place thar offered a cure for Tuberculosis. Many sanatoriums were located in the hills around town. A Jewish man died in one of the sanatoriums and had no money or family. No cemetery in town would bury him unless someone paid $100 for the grave. It was then that nine Jewish men formed the “West Asheville Hebrew Cemetery Association Inc”. My father was the first president. In their Bi-Laws it was stated that anyone of Jewish Faith could be buried there. The price of a grave was $100 and if there was no one to pay it there would be no charge. The cemetery changed it’s name some years later to “Mt. Sinai Cemetery” and sometime after to “The Lou Pollock Memorial Park”. After father died, Lou Pollock became president. After his death, I was the vice-president and assumed the duties of the president. I conferred with David Adler and set up a meeting between the directors of the cemetery and members of Beth Israel. The ownership of the cemetery was transferred to Beth Israel. The following names of the nine founders can be seen on a plaque at the entrance to the cemetery bearing the date 1916: Sam Feinstein Isaac Michalove Lou Pollock �S.W. Silverman Sender Argentar Rabbi Elias Fox Dave Schundler Barney Pearlman Harry Finkelstein Benevolent Societies Around this time my father felt that some home-made chicken soup would help the Jewish patients in the sanatoriums. A number of Jewish women set up a kitchen and once a week hot chicken soup was made available tot he Jewish patients and to others who requested it. Rabbi Fox acquired business interests in Asheville and served as part-time Rabbi. He was associated with a local butcher who made Kosher meat available. He would go by the homes of members and kill the chickens. In 1917, some of us young Jewish boys decided that we ought to have Y.M.H.A. or a Community Center in Asheville. Rabbi Fox met with us and suggested that we form a Y.M.H.A. He said a community center was for the community only, but a bigger and better organization would be a Y.M.H.A. because it extended from coast to coast. He told us a story about when he first came to this country and wanted to see the Brooklyn Bridge. He found a man who could talk Yiddish and after looking at the bridge he asked why they built the bridge with a lot of little cables instead of one big cable. The man explained to him that if one or two cables broke it would not harm the bridge, but if there was one big cable and it broke the bridge would fall in. Mr. Sternberg and Mr. Leavitt Seventy-five years ago there was no United Way in Asheville. There were many local charitable organizations sponsored by churches, synagoges, houses of worship, also the YMCA, the Salvation Army, the Elks Lodge and the Jewish Ladies Aid Society. Lion Joe Sternberg’s father was active in civic, religious, fraternal organizations in Asheville. At that time he was collecting donations for the “Ladies Aid Society” of Asheville. He went to see Mr. Leavitt who operated a ladies ready to wear store on South Main St. near Pack Square. He wouldn’t donate more than $5 and this didn’t please Mr. Sternberg. Mr. Sternberg was the owner of the building Mr. Leavitt operated his store in. He found Mr. Leavitt violated the terms of his lease because he subletted a portion of the store for a shoe department. Mr. Sternberg told Mr. Leavitt that he would have to give the Ladies Aid Society a suitable donation or vacate the building his store was in because he had violated the terms of the lease. They selected three �men to determine what amount Mr. Leavitt should give the Ladies Aid Society. It was agreed that the amount they decided on would be satisfactory to Mr. Sternberg and Mr. Leavitt. Mr. Sternberg selected a man to represent himself. Also Mr. Leavitt picked out the second man. They needed a man to represent both of them and they finally selected my father. The committee decided that Mr. Leavitt should donate $500 to the Ladies Aid Society. Rabbi Fox said that therefore us boys should be little cables and hold up the Y.M.H.A. we were going to form. After the fire that destroyed Birur Cholim Synagogue on South Liberty Street the second floor of the Sondley Building on Broadway was rented for the use of the congregation. A member of the congregation, a young man, forgot he had made a date with a waitress in the Langren Hotel and attended the meeting of the congregation. The lady waited in front of the Masonic Temple with a gun and took a shot at him after the meeting when was leaving the building. She missed. After going to Hebrew School in the building we would stop and examine the hole the bullet made in the front wall of the building. In 1911, I started school at Montford Avenue Grammar School. In 1918, I went to U.N.C. for 2 days, and had to come home to run the paawnshop. In the February 1922 graduating class in Asheville High School, there were 5 boys and 14 girls. Therefore, each boy was expected to take 3 girls to the Senior Class Dance of February 1922. Things were better when we had a dance for the entire year. There were three Jewish girls in the total 1922 class — Madeline Blomberg, Eva Sternberg, and Ester Seigle. I was the only student to take an automobile to school in 1922. It was a Paige make with a “bathtub black” model. I was the business manager of the “Hill Billy”, the school monthly magazine. I was given any study hall period off that I wanted to collect for ads that appeared in the magazine, so I would take my auto and a girl to help me from the study hall. After collecting for one ad we would ride over to the Charlotte Street Drug Store and participate in Ice Cream Sodas for the balance of the study hall period. Around this time Mr. Sternberg had a large junk yard and warehouse on Depot Street. He bought and sold hundreds of cow hides. On all his advertisements he carried the slogan “We buy anything and sell everything”. A circus came to town and didn’t have enough money to leave. They applied to Mr. Sternberg who was president of the Southern State Bank on Depot Street for a loan of $200. Mr. Sternberg made the loan and took the elephant as collateral. He complained he was losing money on account of the elephant eating so much, but was helped out when Mr. Buseck, who owned Middlemont Gardens bout the manure from him. On Sundays in 1925, the Jewish crowd of teenagers and somewhat older boys and girls would gather at the home of the Sternbergs on Victoria Road. The Sternbergs had four children: Eva, Joe, Johanna, and Rose. One of the older girls in the crowd was named Jennie. One day I asked her how she managed to be so popular among the boys, and her answer was, “Well, I’m not so pretty, but I’m catchie”. �I dated Eva and one night I called at the house to take her out and her father yelled to us from the second floor of the house “Don’t you go me no road houses”, and Eva replied “What’s the matter papa --- you afraid we are going to find you there!” One night Mr. Sternberg invited some of his men friends over to his home to participate in a small limit poker game. Sone one tipped off the police that a game was going on. The home was raided and Mr. Sternberg gave the names of the players as Mr. Aleph, Mr. Baze, Mr. Gimmel, Mr. Dolad, Mr. Hay, Mr. Vove, Mr. Zion, and Mr. Hess. The Asheville Citizen carried a story that an attorney appeared in police court for Mr. Aleph, Mr. Baze, Mr. Vove, Mr. Zion, and Mr. Hess and paid their fines. Very few people knew that their names were the first eight letters of the Hebrew Alphabet. It was in 1933, after Franklin Roosevelt was elected president of the United States, that the Volstead Act was repealed and it became legal to sell beer with an alcoholic content on October 1st. I was president of a mens social club, and it became my duty to get beer to serve to the members. This was a difficult job as none was available from distributors around Asheville. 1933 was the year of the Great Depression and Rabbi Goodcowitz bought a second hand truck from Harry Blomberg and was doing some hauling on the side to supplement his income from Bikur - Cholim. Rabbi Goodcowitz said he would go to Baltimore and get us a load of beer as he personally knew the owner of the Valley Forge Beer co. There. I gave him six hundred dollars of the clubs money and he left on a Monday to be back on Thursday. He didn’t show up, but came in the following Monday. The delay was due to the truck breaking down on the trip. Of course I was somewhat concerned but the club had a truck load of Valley Forge Beer available. Leo Cadison saw me and advised that he had talked to the United States Senator Robert R. Reynolds, and the members were starting a campaign to sell the beer before October lst. Captain Fred Jones of the Asheville Police Department, and a member of the house committee said he would not recommend selling it before the legal date. At the club that week, I noted about 150 members were present instead of the usual 40. Under “good and welfare” Senator Reynolds, a great oriator, spoke in favor of selling the beer and said that we were all brothers in a non-profit and charitable organization, and it would be legal to sell it. Others spoke in favor of selling the beer were Judge Philip Cocke, State Senator, A. Hall Johnson Superior Court Judge, Dan Hill, Postmaster, Marcus Erwin U.S.Attorney, Zeb Mettles Superior Court Judge, Charles McRae local attorney, and Leo Cadison. Leo Cadison made a motion that we advise the House Manager to put the beer on ice so that we could drink it after the meting. I advised Mr. Cadison that I could not accept a motion of an illegal nature but under Robert’s Rules of Palamentry procedure he could appeal from my decision. He appeared and I advised the question be voted don would be “Shall the decision of the chair stand” and there would be no discussion. The vote was unanimous against my decision (which suited me) and I instructed the secretary to take everything out of the minutes pertaining to beer, also to advise the house manager to put the beer on ice so we could have it after the meeting. He said that it was to late to advise him because the beer had been on ice for the past two hours. �In the 1930's William Dudley Pelly operated the “Silver Shirts”, a Nazi like organization in a building across the street from the Jewish Community Center on Charlotte Street. He published the Liberation Weekly, anti-semetic literature with a circulation of eight thousand. In a parade, I was playing th esaxaphone with the Asheville Shrine Club Marching Band, and William Rosenfelt was carrying the American Flag. Pelly in his “Liberation Weekly” published a story that we were disgraced by a Jew with a big nose carrying the American Flag. Pelly was arrested by the Buncombe County Sheriffs Department in 1941 for selling unregistered stock. He was found guilty through the efforts of Julius Levitch, a young Jewish lawyer by the name of Alvin Kurtus, and a local attorney named R.R. Williams. On July 25, 1923, the Emporium Department Store owned by Jack Blomberg at the corner of Pack Square and South Main Street was destroyed by a major fire. It was feared that the entire block of Eagle Street would be destroyed. Many of the Jewish merchants who operated clothing stores in the block brought their insurance polices and books to the pawnshop across the street and requested that we put them in our safes which were two of the largest moveable safes in town. These two safes are now located at 21 Broadway While my sisters Rosa and Hilda and I were still children and our parents were out of twon for health reasons, Doctor Schanddler’s father Dave Schandler, would invite us over to his house for meals, especially on Passover and other religious holy days. About this time when our house at 213 Broadway was being built, I was sliding down a sloping board and got a big splinter in my rear end. My father couldn’t get it out so he took me to Dr. Mann, the dentist, and he got it out --- no charge. In 1936, the movements in founding a Jewish Community Center and to organize Federated Jewish Charities in Asheville was started by Julius Levitch through B’Nai B’Rith. In 1947 a testimonial dinner was held for his outstanding service to the Jewish Community. In 1944, Sergeant Joe, the mess sergeant in my outfit in the 13th Air Force located in the South Pacific during World War II, received a shipment of canned corn. Instead of using it for chow, he built a still in a fox hole and made corn whiskey out of it. Joe ran a road house in Greenville, South Carolina before the war and in a neighborly spirit he invited me to drink what I wanted of the corn whiskey and he helped me trade watch bands for coca-cola syrup and ice cream from a Navy C.B. outfit located near by. After the war, he operated his road house in Greenville again. He came to see me and advised that they had arrested his partner for hauling whiskey in Buncombe County and wanted to know if I could help him. I told him that I knew the Chief of Police and Sheriff Brown and I would be glad to see what the situation was. He told me they couldn’t help as it was the Federal Authorities that arrested his partner. . Thinking of how to get him a light sentence I asked Joe if his partner was in the armed forces and he said that they had turned him down because he has a heart murmur. I told Joe to send him to Dr. Feldman and I’d get the report from him as to his heart murmur. Dr. Feldman told me he had a heart murmur and as Federal Physician he would �advise Judge Warlick about in Federal court. At the trial Joe’s prtner went Scott Free. Later he came to see me with a roll of hundred dollar bills and wanted to pay me for getting him off. I refused the money and told him that Joe had helped me out during the war an d what I did was a favor to Joe. Later he brought me six fifths of Scotch for a present, which I kept. While overseas besides having corn whiskey made by Joe and medical alcohol diluted 50% by water and flavored with burnt sugar, we were able to buy bonded whiskey from the flying personnel who didn’t drink their ration. Price was $60 per fifth. They were looking for souvenirs so I wrote Nat Friedman to send me a Japanese hare-kari knife from his antique store. He sent me a similar one. It was a circular shape Turkish knife with Turkish letters on it. My cost was $4. It looked like a Hare-Kari knife. I gave it to Sergeant Joe and asked him to see if he could trade for a Fifth of bonded whiskey. He reported later that he got two fifths for it. I had the honor of serving as president of Beth-Ha-Temphila in 1948 and 1949 during the building and financing of the new temple at Liberty and Broad Streets. I was Master of Ceremonies for th e50th Anniversary Banquet program of Beth-HaTehphila in 1941. I also presided at the 75th Anniversary Banquet in 1966. I have put in my application to preside at the 100th in 1991. Unless we are Indians, our ancestors came from Foreign Lands. I am thankful they did what they did so that I could have the privilege of growing up in a city like Asheville, enjoy this great country of ours---a land of religious freedom and opportunity. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Neither u t i 1 i z e s the traditional three hanging balls symbol as an o u t s i d e identification. "Too rn u c h danger that they would fall and hit somebody in the head," explained Leo Finklestein, who operates what is believed to be North Carolina's oldest pawn shop, founded by his father in 1903. "The day of the old-time hockshop is over," said Finklestein, looking back ta the time when his storage area contained false teeth, surgical appliances, as many as 800 suits of clothing and 2nd Generation Flinkelstein, left, carries on the business by his father in downtown .sheyme. e 500 overcoats (hocked with the arrival of warm weather), and oddities such as an electrical checker board. Once, around 1912, a circus carne to town and went broke Finklestein said. His father took trunks full of abbreviated costumes, a stuffed tiger and lion. "They finally got the money up and sent for them," he said. "In those days we'd take any kind of portable security." In the era before credit cards and the proliferation of banks and other lencting agencies, pawnshops w e r e utilized by persons from <!11 walks of life in need of a loan from 10 cents to $500. "People with any credit rating at all can get a loan today," Finklestein said .. " But even with that, our 'business has increased every year. Much of this increase is in the sale of new merchandise.

Pawnbrokers work closely with the police and are little used in the disposal of stolen articles, Finklestein s a i d . Less than one-tenth of one per cent of his' company's transactions have involved stolen goods. Householders are advised to keep records of serial numbers of appliances, etc., that might be stolen to assist in their recovery. Pawnbrokers date back to China 2,000 to 3,000 years ago. Their legal foundations were set up by the ancient Romans and Greeks. In medieval ages, laws prohibited the charging of interest on money loaned, but pawnbroking was · exempt and carried on by the Jews and Lornbards. The three-ball symbol denoted a Lombard merchant. Pawnbroking became a recognized business in the United States in the 18th Century, and in World War I was a main source of consumer credit. Brokers are required to hold pledges at least three months before offering them for sale to others. Where a!'rangernents are made, many pledges are held for longer periods. About 80 per cent are redeemed. · In the latter part of the 19th Century, Harry L. Finklestein was one of five brothers . who left Russia-he to South Africa; the other four to the United States.

He consulted his doctor. Leon Feldman told him now that he was retired, he needed a hobby. Leo decided to resume the piano lessons he had dropped when he graduated from high school in 1923. He asked Fritz Albertson who plays dinner music at the Great Smokies Hilton to give him lessons. · Pretty soon the two of them were accompanying fellow members of the Asheville Lions Club when they sang "The Lions' Song" and "America" at meetings. One by one, other Lions decided to "help them out" until they became a real band and got invitations to play for other groups. The band called itself "The Unholy Six," partly because a Catholic priest, Father Ralph Neagle, had joined the ranks and played the drums wearing his clerical collar. The "Sanctimonious Seven" became the "exhuberant eight" Wednesday. Band members are (L-R): Father Ralph Neagle, Lt. Charles Long, Ben Skillman (seated), F. Jack Cole, David Albert· son, L e o Finkelstein, Fritz Albertson and D. Blackwell. (Staff Photo by Ewart Ball) As Leo tells it, "First we got invited to play at Father Neagle's church and then at my synagogue, but they wouldn't put our name on the program." By {his time, the "Unholy Six" had become seven and had a lot of invitations to play at churches. So the band decided the name "Sanctimonious Seven" would be more appropriate. Nancy Brower Playing A Polka The band has performed for political doings at the Governor's Western Residence, for several Asheville civic clubs, most Lions Clubs in this area and, members claim, for a fashion show sponsored jointly by Lillie Rubin and Bell's Traditionals. The "Sanctimonious Seven" band had eight members romping through "The Beer Barrel Polka" at this week's Lions' luncheon at the S & W Carousel. Leo was thumping on the piano and Fritz was giving that special lilt to a polka that only an accordionist can. Jack Cole had forgotten hi!! cares as a city councilman and president of Carolina Federal Savings and Loan Association and was sawing away on his granddaddy's fiddle. Lt. Charles H. Long of the Highway .Patrol was scrubbing on the washboard. When the P,Olka realiy got rollicking, the commander of Troop G gave a few clangs on the cowbell and a blast on his police whistle. Father Neagle, chaplain at the Veteran's Hospital, was beating the drum and cymbals with brushes and wearing a beatific smile on his face. Not Second Fiddle Ben Skillman of the Blue CrossBlue Shield office here was playing "co-violin." "I don't play second fiddle to any Democrat," he said, as he plied his bow in competition with Jack Cole. Cole admits he can't read music and adds, " Ben can." Robert F. Moore, counselor for N.C. Services for the Blind, and the band's "banjo plunker" was out-oftown, so D. Blackwell was sitting in for him. David Albertson, son of Fritz and a professional musician like his dad, was filling in the gaps with some good guitar playing. Dave usually plays the . bass, but he didn't want to lug the big instrument around in the snow. After the barrel had been rolled out, the band played some oldies like " When You Wore a Tulip" and "Yes, Sir, That's My Baby." Then .it swung from "Sweet Georgia Brown" to "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown" with Fritz doing things on the piano accordion that made you think there was a horn in there somewhere. The "Sanctimonious Seven," which claims a repertory of 72 tunes, does its only practicing a t Lion' s Club luncheons. When it was announced that Cole was going to sing a 1925 ditty "discovered in an old piano bench," the Lions groaned collectively. Undaunted, Cole belted out "The Asheville Blues; I wish that I was there, a'standin' on Pack Square. I've got those Asheville, North Carolina blue ooo ooo ooos." � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Please find enclosed (I really am sending it this time) photograph use agreement. I have also sent you a couple clippings concerning Katherine Case and the computer descriptions of the two photographs. I tried calling you today but only got through part of my message before I got cut off. I was not sure how quickly you needed the photographs and mostly wanted to te ll you that if you will call Tim Barnwell at 704-251-0040 and tell him what you want, that will activate the process; we have the negatives pulled and ready for him to pick up. If you have any more questions concerning Katherine Case, I'd be glad to ask her, or I'm sure she would be glad to talk with you also. She works here in Technical Services and you could reach her the easiest on Wednesday or Thursday morning. Please let me know if there is anything else we can do to help you.

Neither Leo nor the U.S. Army would ever be the same again. Be with us on Friday, August 1, when Leo Finkelstein will lighten up our Oneg Shabbat by sharing from his new book, Letters From Leo, published by Appalachian Consortium. Leo has been a member of our congregation longer than anyone. He has served as our historian in residence and has a story for every occasion. Don't miss this remarkable view of army life as you hear Leo reading letters written to the folks back in Asheville from the deserts of Utah or the foxholes of the South Pacific. Leo Finkelstein Here are some examples of Leo's humor and insight. From Kearns, Utah: The Air Corps is just like our G.l. Laundry-you get out of It just what you put into it, but you'd never recognize it. From Guadalcanal: Mosquitoes are big here. One lit in the runway and they put seventy gallons of gas in it before they found out it wasn't a P-38. �~:t~,~·v· ·-a~.:-~ ~~1:~:~\.jr.:'-1·· ' ;•. ~. • • to \· . • • .... ' 1.'1 ' .. • ~ . l- • I.

MICHALOVE, HONot CIAaaAI Dear Mr. Finkelstein, I really should start this lett~r with Dear Leo, since everybody here speaks of •t!our Leo 11 , but I dont even know, if y ou remember me at all and so I have to be a bit formal. Your good friend Sendar, our president, has asked me to write all our friends who ch~erfully gave donations during the holiday season. When IsaakGradman started his speech on Jom Kippur night by informing us that your letter and check had ar~ived that very day, he reall~ hit the spot and to make a long story short, I as well as many others believe that your generous gift helped ·us greatly not onlz in reaching our goal of & 2,500.00 but in getting pl~es for $ 3,000 . 00 . Thanks for the gift and the lift you gave us. Tbese pledges and the higher dues promised by all members will help us keep the Schull going in let us say, the old-fashioned orthodox wey. We had a good rabbi for the holidays but he did not stay and we are trying hard to g- t a new one. e You know that our prayers ~lway :3 beg for Scholem. I am sure that these prayers were never said with more conviction than thi s year and it is t~e hope of all that they may be fulfilled. Thanks again, in the name of the whole congregation and with best wi shes for yourself, ��.::J "E: :::;;;~oy C-!Jy/Cp ->.e, D J V t?L JJ J 5 5 .f'(_ ~~ Lj-/-'f)- I( !:? y OlJ AI G.- J_ - ;c;3£t-"37 ~ l'# )1..1-) r? -o/ 1? 3 1-52_ /Cf3 s---~ ?C- LI CJ10::, ~ ~ @ ~<rescde ~-~d- ko h "-'tek,-fe.;w tf Rr;tuJ.~-t- ~-<:Ulj)~ 1 9S 9 0ft;:::SJ-~ W p/liJWN ;c;'fr '-i 3 J13y-lf- 0 19'10- 'II F L~ D - ..n-;'CI# !lVI:- c "L - '?"'" p;:? t:-> {//f-1!2.

He carne up to Asheville, and Doctor Smith told him he would dir of anything except what they sent him to Asheville for, so that he might as well go back to Jacksonville. He liked Asheville so much he decided to stay here. In 1903, he opened a pawn shop at 23 South Main Street (now Biltmore Avenue).

Congregation Beth-Ha-Tephila I served as President 1948 ro 1950. On August 23, 1891, twenty-seven men met in Lyceum Hall and adopted a constitution for Congregation Berh-Ha-Tephila. Among me charter members were me Blomberg, Lipinsky, and Zagier families. It is noted that me dues were $10 a year, payable in advance. Lyceum Hall was me first home of me Congregation. Ir was rented from a fraternal order for $75 a year. Congregation Bikur Cholim I served as Vice President before World War II. Rabbi Londow became me rabbi for Congregation Bikur Cholim whose articles of incorporation were filed in the Court Clerk's office in February 1899. The incorporators were }.B. Schwaraberg, A. Blomberg, Sam Feinstein, S.H. Michalove, A. Shenbaum, M. Zuglier, and RB. Zagier. Since the community could nor pay Rabbi Londow a decent wage, he operated a Jewish grocery sto re on rhe side. He was a kindly old gencleman wid! a big beard, wore his hat around rhe grocery store ar all rimes except when a lady called him on the telephone. He would remove the hat during the conversation and pur ir back o n his head after the phone call. I remember a big barrel of herring in the center of me store. Plain herring were five centS each and milk herring ren cents. A newly married lady in the Congregation once called Rabbi Londow and complained that a duck she bought from him was old and roo rough ro eat. Rabbi Londow asked her �fo ~ In 1911, erection of a house of worship was started on South Liberty Street Congregation Bikur Cholim. Although it wasn't completed until 1916, the Hebr w'Scl!_ool moved there in 191 2. When I was I I years old, I attended Hebrew school conduct the rabbi on Saturday morning in the edifice of the synagogue. The sancruary contained nothing but pews and a coal stove for hear. The basement was used for storage and resr rooms. In the winter time the rabbi fiXed the stove for a fire Friday so thar it could be lir Saturday morning ro produce hear for the Hebrew class. what did she expect him to do - look down the duck's mouth and count its teeth! The first religious services of Bikur Cholim I remember attending were on the second floor of a bwlding at the corner of Patton Avenue and Church Street. lr was early in the life of Bikur Cholim thar the congregation split up due ro a big argument. Half of the members formed another congregation and called ir Anshei Hashuron. They rented a second floor of an apanment house at the corner of Central Avenue and Woodfin Street. However, through the efforts of the impartial moderates, a compromise was reached and a permanent division averted. Since the rabbi shouldn't light a fire or spend money on the Sabbath, he arranged for a boy in the neighborhood ro light the fire Saturday morning. He placed a dime under a prayer book Friday and rold the boy where to ger the dime after lighting the fire on Saturday. Nevertheless, the apanmenr was kepr for a religious school. Ir was here thar I received my first Hebrew lesson. Rabbi Fox was reaching us the four questions ro ask at our Passover meal. At this time my father attended all the board meetings of Bikur C holim.rle ou d come home upset and nervous. Or. Smith suggested he nor attend any mor~agog meetings due to hjs high blood pressure. .f!c- / e..... Rabbi Fox was active on the 9th and I Oth degrees of Scottish Rite ry. After his death I assumed his parts in these degrees and I was on the degree teams until retiring in 1995. Even in those days educational institutions had trouble with rebelling students. One real cold morning the boy didn't show up ro lighr the fire. We were arrending Hebrew class in swearers, coats and overcoats and ir was awful cold. I asked to be excused and coming up from the basement I reported ro Rabbi Redunsky that the plumbing must have frozen as rhere was water lc:alcing in several places The Rabbi went to see about it. I advised the Orthodox Rules and Hebrew School Sevenry-five to 100 years ago there were two synagogues in Asheville. My fam ily belonged ro the orthodox. The orthodox had srricr rules for obeying the Sabbath which began Friday at sundown and ended Saturday night. The members of Bikur Cholim who owned an automobile would put them in the garage on Friday evening ro observe the Sabbath and wouldn't rake them out untjl Sarurday after sundown. Most of the members lived within waJkjng distance of the synagogue. To obey rhe Sabbath correcrly you were nor allowed ro operare a business, spend money, smoke, strike a march, work, or cook. Many other activities were also forbidden. Remember this was abour 100 years ago. You weren't supposed to rear paper. Now if you had a bathroom wirh paper on a roll, you ron: the paper off for Friday in case ir may be needed for the Sabbath. The same rule applies ro outhouses with old Sears Roebuck catalogues. As far as I know none of these rules are observed today. ii > Fannyr on thr porrh ofthr �class that there were no broken pipes and suggested that we leave the building- which we did - not to return until warm weather. For your information, there was no water leaking. While my sisters, Rosa and Hilda, and I were still children and our parents were out of town for health reasons, Doctor Schancl1er's futher, Dave Schancl1er, would invite us over co his house for meals, especially on Passover and other religious holy days. About this time when our house at 213 Broadway was being built, I was sliding down a sloping board and got a big splinter in my rear end. My father couldn't gee it out so he cook me to Dr. Mann, the denrist, and he got it out gue was Harry and Fanny< Finlulsttin with childrm uo, ; o :::uilding of . 0 completed Rouz, and Hilda the eve of Ro honah a fire complecely destroyed the building. Mrs. Rosenfeld had a . / .:::.1ewish".!5i)ardiiig ousc nc:xt door and she cried and complained that she had just cleaned ~ / her house for Yon tiff and smoke had dirtied the place up. The Masonic Temple was offered to us to usc for the High Holy Day Services and we accepted. in(ian~:tfore '? After the fire that destroyed Bikur Cholim Synagogue on South Liberty Street, the second floor of Soncl1ey Building on Broadway was rented for the usc of the congregation. A member of the congregation, a young man, forgot he had made a date with a waitress in the Langrcn Hotel, and attended the meeting of the congregation. The lady waited in front of the Masonic Temple with a gun and took a shor at h~er e meeting when he was leaving the building. She missed. After going to Heb - oo in the building we would ihe building. stop and examine the hole the bullet made in the front me 7 The Cemetery In those days Asheville was a place that offered a cure for ruberculosis. Many sanatoriums were located in the hills around town. A Jewish man died in one of the sanatoriums and had no money or family. No cemetery in town would bury him unless someone paid $100 for the gravt::a. then that nine Jewish men formed ~heville Hebrew Cemetery Associa onjnc. My futher was the first president. e bylaws rated. that anyone ofJewish fai e buried there. T he price of a grave was 0 and if there was no one to pay it there would be no charge. ,S,~m te changed its name some years later to Mt. Sinai Cerneteqt-an after' toA'fle Ld Pollock Memorial Park. After Father died, Lou Pollock became presiden ih, I was the vice-president and assumed the duties of the president. I conferred with David Acl1cr and set up a meeting berween the directors of the cemetery and members of Beth Israel. The ownership of the cemetery was transferred to Beth Israel. < The following names of the nine founders can be seen on a plaque at the entrance to the cemetery bearing the date 1916: Sam Feinstein, Isaac Michalove, Lou Pollock, S.W. Silverman, Sender Argenrar, Rabbi Elias Fox, Dave Schancller, Barney Pearlman, Harry Finkelstein. Benevolent Societies Around this time my futher felt that some homemade chicken soup would help the Jewish patients in the sanatoriums. A number of Jewish women set up a kitchen and, once a week, hot chicken soup was made available to the Jewish patients and to others who requested it. Rabbi Fox acquired business interests in Asheville and served as part-time Rabbi. He was associated with a local butcher who made kosher meat available. He would go by the homes of members and kill the chickens. In 1917, some of us young Jewish boys decided that we ought to have a Young Men's Hebrew Association or a community center in Asheville. Rabbi Fox met with us and suggested that we form a YMHA. He said a community center was for the community only, but a bigger and better organization would be a YMHA because it extended from coast to coast. He told us a story about when he first came to this country and wanted to see the Brooklyn Bridge. He found a man who could talk Yiddish and after looking at the bridge he asked why they built the bridge with a lot of little cables instead of one big cable. The < �man explained to him that if one or rwo cables broke it would not harm the bridge, but if there was one big cable and it broke the bridge would fall in. Rabbi Fox said that therefo re we boys should be little cables and hold up the YMHA we were going to form. Flanders 20 About 75 years ago the Studebaker Corporation made rwo automobiles - the Flanders 20, 20 horsepower and the Emf. 30, 30 horsepower. My family owned a Flanders 20. To start the engine you used a hand crank in front of the auto. You lowered the spark control lever because if you didn't, you might get a kickback on the crank and get your arm broken. Mr. Sternberg and Mr. Leavitt Seventy-five years ago there was no United Way in Asheville. There were many local charitable organizations sponsored by churches, synagogues, houses of worship, also the YMCA, the Salvation Army, the Elks Lodge and the Jewish Ladies')Aid Society. Joe Sternberg's father was active in civic, religious, and fraternal organizations in Asheville. At that rime he was collecring donations for the Ladics...,Aid Society of Asheville. He went to Mr. Leavitt who operated a ladie.?read)loto,.wear store on South Main Street near Pack Square. He wouldn't donate more than $5 and this didn't please Mr. Sternberg. 7 > If you had a Aat tire, you had to raise the wheel with a hand jack, take the rire off and ftx the inner rube with patches t.hat you always carried with you. Y had a hand pump to ou inAate the tire again. 7 see Some owners of the Flanders 20 bragged that sometimes they could drive up the hill on South Main Street (now Biltmore Avenue) from Depot Street to Pack Square in high gear and they didn't have to shift to a second gear. Mr. Sternberg was the owner of the building in which Mr. Leavitt operated his store. He found Mr. Leavitt violated the terms of his lease because he sublet a portion of the store for a shoe deparunent. Mr. Sternberg told Mr. Leavitt that he would have to give the Ladi~Aid Society a suitable donation or vacate the building because he had violated the rercns of the lease. They sdecred three men to determine what amount Mr. Leavitt should ) give the Ladies'Aid Society. It was agreed that the amount they decided would be satisfactory to Mr. Sternberg and Mr. Leavitt. There was a dirt road to Hendersonville. Some of it was red clay that would become slick when it rained. One small section of the road became very slick due to its location. There was a man there with a mule. For a small fee he would hitch the mule to the front of the auto and pull you out of the bad place with the help of the engine of the car. f Mr. Sternberg selected a man to represent himself. Also, Mr. Leavitt picked o ut the second man. They needed a man to represent both of them and finally sclfcted my father. 7The committee decided that Mr. Leavitt should donate $500 to the Ladies Aid Society. 7 In 1936, the movement to found a Jewish Community Center and to organize Federated Jewish Charities in Ash.eville was started by Julius Levitch through .~:~f· In 1947 a testimonial dinner was held for his outstanding service to the Jewi~nity. < Jl{y Father and the Sheriff's Department In the early days of the century, my father would give each member of the Buncombe County Sheriff's Deparunenr cu1f links for a Christmas present. In appreciation, the Sheriff always sent my father a gallon of corn whiskey. We always than.la:d the Sheriff for his gift even though none of my family drank cotn whiskey. uo andfrimds with Flantkn 20 13 �We were invited to a wedding in Hendersonville by Mr. Lewis whose sister, Rose, was gening married to a young anorney named Joe Patla. He practiced law in Asheville fo r many years. We took our Flanders 20 to the wedding with a couple of our friends. We had no trouble as it didn't rain. Coming back to AsheviUc, we got a flat tire ncar Skyland and stopped to fix it. We noticed a lot of berries growing near the road and we all began to ear them. A F.umer saw us and accused us of stealing his berries. He took our a warrant for my father. The trial was to be heard by a Justice of the Peace in Skyland. My father employed a young lawyer by the name of Bob Reynolds. Bob Reynolds in later years became a U.S. Senator. The Justice of the Peace office was too small to hold the crowd that came to the trial so it was held under a large oak tree outdoors. I heard that Bob gave a great speech to the crowd and the Justice of the Peace o rdered my father just to pay the farmer a small amount for the berries. The moral of this event is: Don't ear wild berries beside an old road. You arc liable to have more troubles than a stomachache. -;. Beginning to work I .o;;::. When I was eight years old, I starred selling newspapers. I wasn't doing very good so my father gave me a job in the pawnshop at 50 cents per week. I had to save 25 centS of it. I was co work when there was no school activity or important events pertaining to my education. I was given Saturday afternoon off co go fishing and Saturday morning to sec a serial movie at the Galaxy movie house on Pack Square. Many people left their musical instruments as collateral for loans. I tried out my musical ability on a guitar, a ukulele, a violin and a saxophone. I took violin lessons from Mr. Popala.rdo and piano lessons &om Mrs. Oliphant. My mother insisted that I practice on the piano one hour a day. School In 1911, I st.trted school at Montford Avenue Grammar School. In 1922, I went to University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill for rwo days, and had co come home co run the pawnshop.

Therefore, each boy was expected to rake three girls co the Senior Class Dance of February 1922. Things were bener when we had a dance for the entire school. There were three Jewish girls in the total 1922 class - Madeline Blo mberg, Eva Sternberg, and Esther Seigle. I was the only student to rake an automobile to school in 1922. It was a Paige make with a "bathtub back" model. I t incss man er of Tht: Hillbilly, the school monthly magazine. I was given any study hall perio o .ro1fecc for ads that appeared in the magazine, so I would take my auto and a girl to he p me from the study hall. Alter colleering for one ad we would ride over to the Charlotte Street Drug Score and participate in ice cream sodas for the balance of the study hall period. <.... �Asheville Dixie jazz Band In 1921, I, along with a violin player from Lewis Funeral Home, Frank McCormak, formed the fir.a musical outfit Asheville High School ever had.

Now, Joe's mother, Mrs. Sternberg, phoned me and advised me that she was entertaining Joe and three other members of the 1922 class with a trip to the top of Mr. Pisgah. Eva Sternberg, Joe's sister, graduated in 1921 bur wanted to go with them. Her mother asked if! would like to go and look alter Eva if she went, and I told her that I would be delighted. They all picked m~ up the na~ morning and Mrs. Ster~be~ove us the ho me of 'to Mr. and Mrs. Rufus 0 Kelly who lived at the base of Mr. Prs~ Oen~n passenger Mormon automobileJWe had lunch of possum and sweet potatoes. There was one dirt road (one way) to the top of Mt. Pisgah, five miles long. An auto had to go up in the morning at daylight and was allowed to come down after I p.m. until dark. We hiked to a cleared section. Mr. O'Kelly chaperoned the trip and built us a large bonfire and was fiXing something to eat. Eva was unpacking some things and I noticed a large bottle of Bromo-Selczer. I asked if she expected someone to have a headache. She said, "No, I opened a pint bottle of father's bottled whiskey, took half of it and filled the Bromo-Selt:zer bottle. Now you and I can have a drink before we eat. "' "That's a good idea." I said, "but what is your father going to say when he finds out?" She said, "No problem. I filled the empty half of the whiskey bottle with water. " At nighttime she and I sat around the fire drinking a few drinks of BrumoSelczer. On Sundays in 1925, the Jewish crowd of teenagers and somewhat older boys and girls would gather at the home of the Srernbergs on Victoria Road. The FrimdJ at plAy (1-r Milton Schwamlmg, Harry Stern bergs had four children: Eva, Joe, Roth, William RoJmftld. Sam Roth) Johanna, and Rose. One of the older girls in the crowd was named Jennie Selt:z. One day I asked her how she man~e..so popular among the boys, and her answer was, "Well, I'm not so pretty, but Vm catehie." I dated Eva and one night I called at the house to take her out and 11~-.....,~.p--~­ us from the second floor of the house, "Don't you go to no road houses!" Eva replied, "What's the matter, Papa - you aftaid we are going to find you there?" William Jennings Bryan On July 7, 1896, William Jennings Bryan delivered the "Cross of Gold" speech and �won the Democratic parry nomination for Vice President of the United States. In 1900 he was nominated again for Vice President. In 1908 he was nominated for President of the United Stares. Later in life he moved to Asheville and his home was at the corner of Evelyn Place and Kimberly Avenue - just a few houses away from where Jack Cole now lives. Mr. Bryan asked my father to order him a special made double barrel Parker shot gun with 28" barrels modified and choke bores, and a 2 3/4 inch drop. After receiving the ~ n he wrote my father a letter of thanks. I had this letter in my historical files and it disappeared. Now I don't know whether to blame it on the Democrats or Republicans. The Emporium Fire of 1923 ......., On July 25, 1923, the Emporium ,es>arunen;Jtore owned by Jack Blomberg at the / corner of Pack Square and South Main'"Street was<femoyed by a major fire. It was feared that the entire block to South Main Street (Biltmore Avenue) would be destroyed. Many of the merchants who operated clothing stores in the block brought their insurance policies and books to Finkelstein's Pawnshop across the street and requested that we put them in our safes which were two of the largest moveable safes in town. T he two safes are now located at 2 1 Broadway. &wing Machine Mystery A sewing machine was brought in for a loan. The next day some ladies from a church walked in from a church society, identified the machine and claimed it had been stolen from the church. The pawn ticket was hunted. "What's the name on the record?" one of the women inquired. It was read off. "What!" shrieked the group in unison. "That's the name of our pastor!" And, the mystery was cleared up: someone else had pawned the machine giving the reverend's name. �Hl AsheviHe the 1930s . Ill (ions Club "iremember when I became a member of the The club had 16 members and I was the 17th. Our meetings were held at the S & W Cafeteria on Panon Avenue, in a meeting room on the second floor. A good meal could be had at a cost ofless than one dollar. As{~Ue Lions Club in 1930. I remember when the club's membership reached I 00, we held a stag parry at the Sky Club on top of Beaucatcher Mountain. Out of 100 members we had 97 anend. Three were absent on account of being out of town. The club was operated by Boyd and Albertine Maxwell and their daughter was the hostess. Albertine was a professional dancer and she did a "snake dance" to entertain the parry. Lion Dan Furr fiXed us a special drink consisting of an assortment of fluids that we called "Scrape the Bonom." We had a big spagheni dinner. The cost of the evening was $1.50 per member. The young lady who was hostess, in appreciation of me bringing the Lions Club there for a parry, taught me to dance the "Charleston," a new dance that had just started. I remember when I drove my new automobile to the Stag P~ty with Lion John Thayer. The automo- <:::_ bile was a Terraplane Sedan that Lion Johnnie Groome sold me. It had an electric gear shift controlled by bunons on the steering wheel. It also had a stick shift in from of the center of the from seat that could be used when the electric shift failed to work. �Going down Bcaucatcher Mountain in the Terraplane, Lion John Thayer, who had drank a substantial amount of "Scrape the Bottom," acted funny, yanked the gear shift stick loose and threw it out of the car into the woods of Bcaucatcher Mountain. The next day Lion John and I searched the woods, found the stick shift and replaced it. I remember when the dub held a "womanless wedding" at a Ladies Night Banquet on March 14, 1939 and Lion Dan Furr was the flower girl. I remember when in 1939 the club presented a pair of lions to the city wo and a few weeks later a baby lion was born. It was named "Leo." I remember when an alarm clock was placed at the speaker's table at the club meetings set to alarm at 2 o'clock with a sign: OUR MEETING CLOSES AT 2 O'CLOCK AND WE DO NOT APPRECIATE DIRTY JOKES. I remember when Jack Cole was president of the Asheville Lions Club. We held a ) ladicJnight banquet at the Battery Park Hotel. Lion Jack invited a U.S. Congressman, Lion Roy Taylor, to make a talk for the gathering. It took Lion Jack twenty minutes to introduce Congressman Taylor. Roy Taylor in response said that there must be a mistake. "It looks like Lion Jack Cole was to give the address and I should have introduced him. " I remember when City Manager Burdette announced to the C ity Council that the police department's new traffic bureau would begin operating and that ordinances would be strictly enforced. Mr. Burdette left no doubt in the minds of a Lions Club committee who called to complain about the parking problem. and if he wanted a tunic race, to present it to the board of directors at their regular meeting. There was no runic race. := ::: <__ I remember when I was dating a nice young lady in Asheville by the name of Pearl. Pearl was hostess in a restaurant I used to eat at. The Lions Club was giving a Ladies) Night ~inner and Governor Hoey was to be our speaker. I was told that I couldn't bring Pearl. C Governor Hoey's daughter was coming to the dinner and I'd have to sit with her at the speaker's table. It was an uneventful monotonous dinner and when it was over I told the governor's daughter good night and went to see Pearl. I remember when a member missed over two meetings Lion Charles Bertyman, who operated a funeral home, would send his ambulance to bring the member to the meeting. I remember when a member missed over three meetings without an excuse. Lion Judge Sam Cathey would send a police car to present the member with the following summons: C1TJ' or Anirnt.LE No. 131313 POLICE SUMMONS Dot••..•..ir/ d-J.J·····-···-······· Add"'"-······-·--·--···· ....

I wrote a check for $1,000 and since I won the first flight, I presented the check to myself.

He, ,_./ wouldn't be able to caddie for me Sunday. That was a disaster for without Cris I just coui_Y-. ~ play a good game of golf. I called Lion Judge Cathey and advised him of the siruation "'and he told me he would reduce Cris's sentence from 30 days to one day and for me to go down to the jail and get him. < �More than 300 persons representing every civic organization in the ciry attended the banquet at the Battery Park Hotel.

She called me the day before and said that Lion Judge Cathey had put her cook in jail and she had no one to cook the dinner. I called Lion Judge Cathey again and told him about it. He arranged for Lion Hudson's cook ~ksgiving dinner. Prohibition's I remember when mimic political campaign speeches by members of the Lions Club were featured at the S & W Cafeteria during their meeting. In the comic program, four members representing four political parties made "pleas" for support of their candidates for president. Lion Schorr urged the club to vote for Herbert Hoover, Lion Roy Phillips upheld Franklin D. Roosevelt, Lion Nat Friedman asked that William D. Upshaw be given the club's support and l talked at length on Norman Thomas, the socialist candidate. I remember when Lion Dan SteWart, Lion Charlie Miller and I went to Havana, Cuba for an International Convention. We drove to Miami and took the boat to Havana. After the convention, trying to get back to Miami, we found it was going to be three days before we could get passage on the boat. I didn't want to wait three days in Havana so I phoned my girl friend Reggie who was secretary to the Mayor of Miami Beach. She told me she would take care of the situation and for me to go down to the boat office and they would give me passage on the next boat to Miami. She told the boat office they needed me as a wimess in a court case, so I spent the night in a big chair in the lounge of the boa~ ?~ing to Miam~ Reggie and I met Lion Stewart and Lion Miller in a couple of days an~k them fishing. I remember when on July I 0, 1940 the Lions Club held a meeting which was described by Lion C.E. Hudson as "in truth the most gratifying gathering of all times in Asheville, of its kind.• It was described by the Ashwilk Citizm as the largest and most represenrative civic organization gathering in Asheville in recent years. It was an inter-club banquet and fim annual award of the Asheville Lions Club to the most useful civic club member in the ciry of Asheville, 1939-1940. Tbc idea of this banquet was presented to the Civic Club Union by Lion Jim Divelbiss IDIIIIIJICI£ They assisted the Lions Oub and picked Robert Lee Ellis of the Coca-Cola BOaJias Campaay 11 Asheville's most useful civic club member in the 1939-40 year. He ftCiiWd • tiluale plaque from the Lions Club which he said he would cherish as long as he lnecL ~ning Days It was in 1933, afrer Franklin Roosevelt was elected President of the United States, that the Volstead Act was repealed and it became legal to sell beer with an alcoholic content on October I st. I was exalted ruler of the Elks Club and it became my dury to get beer to serve to the members. This was a difficult job as none was available from distributors around Asheville. Nineteen thirty-three was the year of the Great Depression and Rabbi Goodkowin bought a second hand truck from Harry Blomberg and did some hauling on the side to supplement his income from Bikur Cholim. Rabbi Goodkowin said he would go to Baltimore and get us a load of beer as he personally knew the owner of the Valley Forge Beer Company there. I gave him six hundred dollars of the club's money and he left on a Monday to be back on Thursday. He didn't show up, but came in the following Monday. The delay was due to the truck breaking down on the trip. Of course I was somewhat concerned, but the club had a truck load of Valley Forge~eer available. ~ <( Leo Cadison saw me and advised that he had talked to United Scates Senator Robert R. Reynolds, and the members were starting a campaign to sell the beer before October !st. Captain Fred Jones of the Asheville Police Department and a member of the house committee said he would not recommend selling it before the legal date. At the club that week, I noted about 150 members were present instead of the usual 40. Under "good and welfare" Senator Reynolds, a great orator, spoke in favor of selling the beer and said that we were all brothers in a non-profit and charitable organization, and it would be legal to sell it. Others who spoke in favor of selling the beer were Judge Philip Cocke, State Senator; A. Hall Johnson, Superior Court Judge; Dan Hill, Postmaster; Marcus Erwin, U.S. Attorney; Zeb Nettles, Superior Court Judge; Charles McRae, local attorney; and Leo Cadison. Leo Cadison made a motion that we advise the house manager to put the beer on ice so that we could drink it afrer the meeting. I advised Mr. Cadison that I could not accept a motion of an illegal nature but under Robert's Rules of Parliamentary Procedure he could appeal my decision. He appealed and I advised that the question to be voted on would be "Shall the decision of the Chair srand," and there would be no discussion. The vote was unanimous against my decision (which suited me), and I instructed the secretary to take everything out of the minutes pertaining to beer, also to E �advise the house manager to put the beer on ice so we could have it aficr the meeting. He said that it was too late to advise him because the beer had been on icc for the past rwo hours. How to Finance a Pawnshop in a Depression '7 7 7 193~ It was the Depression of the Our loans averaged $1 0 and we made them as low as 50 cents. The demand was great on loans on diam~d jewelry. The top loan on a 1/2 karat diamond was $50 and $200 on a good grad~ I was running out of money. I saw Perry at the Morris Plan Bank and we agreed to rent a lock box at the Wachovia Bank. Both of us would have a key to it. I would hypothecate the large size diamond and jewelry loans. The way that worked is I would make the loan, get the cash &om Perry on a 90 day note, and put the jewelry in the lock box as security. If the customer came to redeem his jewelry I advised him ¥~lry was at the vault at the Wachovia for safekeeping and I would get it for h.im. ~ This was working very well as the bank was making the legal rate of 6% on 90 day notes which were paid in 30 to 40 days with no refUnd for unearned interest. I was doing OK also. I charged interest at legal rates plus other expenses incident to the negotiations of the transactions. But a miracle happened. A girlfriend of mine in the 1922 cl School married a man from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, who later com came back to Asheville to live. She saw me and wanted to know if I could help her out. She said she was left a sizeable amount of life insurance and did I know of a safe place where she could invest some of it and get a decent return. I helped her out. Streetwalking A young lady friend of my family would pawn a diamond pin for $50. She was always months past due on the redemption of it. I felt sorry for her and I didn't let her pay any interest or charges on any loan afier her first loan. After pawning it several times, she came in for a loan on the pin. She asked for one hundred dollars. I told her that a hundred dollars was more than we could loan on it, that I would loan her $50 again. She said that she needed a hundred dollars and that I was trying to make a "street walker" out of her! The Preacher and the Bible I helped a preacher financially conduct his Sunday's services. Back in e...!l!:prcssion days of the 1930s there was a preacher who pawned his Bible every Mond mor er Sunday's services and redeemed it on the following Friday or Saturday for the next service on Sunday. I made the original loan of $10 and advised the preacher that he could get it out at a charge of $1 anytime in 30 days or if needed, he could wait three months at no additional charge. Then a banker comes to town. He took over the Morris Plan Bank and organized the Bank of Asheville. Perry, the new cashier at the Bank of Asheville, came to sec me and said, •Mr. Wolcott advised that the bank wun't a pawnshop and to tell F"mkdstcin to pay off those 90 day aoca. • It looked like I was going ro haft co atOp making large jewdry .,._ and try to meet the 90 day note. In checking the records I found that he had pawned the Bible weekly on many occasions. On the next Friday morning when he came afier his Bible I told him he didn't owe anything on it, that he had paid more carrying charges than the original loan. I told him to put that $10 bill he had next to the Ten Commandments in the Bible and the next rime he needed $10 to take it our and put it back in the Bible afier Sunday's service. Just don't bring the Bible back here for a loan. He didn't. LM Finlttlsuin in his paunuhop �Overcoats 7 During q{e ~~on of 1933 the pawnshop had 800 overcoats left at the beginning of the summer. ~e-loans were from $3 to $7 each, and 80% of the loans were past due. There was a problem of moths. We pur mothballs in the pockets of all overcoats and sprayed them with DDT. I asked him if it was life insurance. He said, "No." lc was liability insurance and if I did anything wrong as a deputy sheriff that they would fUrnish me legal assistance in court. I was sworn in November I 5, 1934. After rhe overcoats became more than three months pasr due we: had them dry cleaned. We: made: a contract with the cleaners to pick up and return lots of twenty at SO cents each. The owner of the cleaning company came in the shop and said that he wamed to buy an overcoat for his chauffeur. He tried on one and liked it so much that he said he would keep it for himself and give his ro his chauffeur. Murders in Pawnshops and Helping SheriffL. Brown You have probably read in the Citiun-Timls about Mark Lane who was killed in a shooting during an armed robbery. His futher, Ronald Lane, and he were co-owners of che Leicester Pawn Shop. Earlier, I wrote of Reggie, secretary ro the Mayor of Miami Beach, who helped our delegation get fusrer transportation back co Florida from rhe lmernacional Lions Convention in Havana, Cuba. Lion C.A. Miller was on char trip. Lacer Reggie's brother was killed in a holdup in his pawnshop on Flager Screer in Miami. A lor of people classify a pawnbroker as a shylock. Those pawnbrokers I have known are kind people and are an asset to any community they operate in. In November 1934 Sheriff Lawrence Brown of Buncombe County came to see me and said thar he needed help. Beacon M ring-Eompany4t Swannanoa was having labor -;, rrouble and a group from South Car linal_was coming up c~tcvem che employees from going ro work. He wanted ro rene 12 u tglfns to be used by special deputies ro guard the entrance ro rhe plane. 7 Harringro~chardson I rented him twenty 12 gauge shotguns for $1 each. He was successful in guarding the plane and they never fired a shoe. The sheriff phoned me and said char be wanted ro bestow upon me rhe honor of being a deputy sheriff and co come over and bring a photo for an identification card. I cold him I didn't know anything about enforcing rhe law. He said char was okay, ro come over and he would swear me in and cake out insurance on me. uo Finktlsuin, Dq>uty Shmff X~ I goc a phone call che next morning from Mr. Seely, Manager of the Grove Park Inn. ~ He said that he needed a gun for his watchman, a .38 Smith and Wesson SpeciaJ/1 with a 4~ barrel.

They have a barrel of money back ~~· there and they will pay you for ic." ~ression the~ced This was during che of Mr. Seely top price, and was going co do almost anything co complete the sale, so I went to the back door. ~ Now I am happy co announce that at the present time I am allowed co go in the fronL_ entrance to the Inn. ~ ( \ ' '<. �Guns and a Grandfather Clock A friend of mine had a valuable an rique clock abour six fcer tall. He said that he was leaving home for a month and there was a lot of larceny going on. He wanted to leave it with me for safekeeping. I told him to put it in the storage area on the second floor of the shop. A couple of days later a customer comes in and wants to buy a shotgun. It was summer rime and since hunting season didn't open until fall I wondered why he wanted a shotgun. My salesman said all the shotguns and shells were stored on the second floor and he wo uld take the customer up there. A little later I heard a big loud bang from the second floor. The salesman came running down and said that the customer had commirted suicide with a shotgun. I called the Police Deparrment and Dr. Baer, the coroner. Will Hampton, solicitor of police court and the chief carne over. I went to the second floor with them and we found the customer passed out on the floor. I didn't see any blood and upon examination we found part of his clothing blown away under one arm and he wasn't injured. It's almost impossible to reach the trigger of a 32" barrel shotgun when you have the muzzle at your chest. Evidently the customer must have tried to reach the trigger and the muzzle slipped under his arm when the gun fired. I remembered the grandfather clock and found that the discharge from the gun blew some of the plaster out of the wall about a foot from the dock. T he dock was okay. Dr. Baer asked for a pin. He said that he wanted to find out if the man really passed out. He jabbed him several rimes with a pin and the man didn't move. He really passed out. The chief said that the man had violated a law and he would take charge of him. The lesson from this event is: Don't try to commit suicide- if you do, you are liablr to get arrested. .A Secwtarys Thoughts My name was Ma~t Owen in 1936, when I was Leo Finkelstein's secretary. It was the first job I ever had and he really taught me how to be office help. It was an exciting time to work on Pack Square, which was the hub of Asheville's business world at that time. I remember that Mt. Finkdstein would lend me out to do typing for some of the Jewish organizations he was participating with at that time. I worked for Lou Pollock when he was head of the Jewish Cemetery, and Mr. Gustav Lichtenfels and Siegfried Sternberg when they were working on getting Jewish people out of Germany. I wrote some of the letters which were instrumental in bringing some of the early German Jews to Asheville, who then went on to become very valuable citizens of Asheville. I know of Herbert Schifran and his fam ily, and Alfred and lrmgard Lichtenfels. There were probably others that Mr. Finkelstein was responsible for that he remembers, but I have forgotten. I was in the store when the internees of Germany and Japan who were billeted at Grove Park Inn came in, and Tom Wolfe carne in to visit his friend, Bob Bunn. I was standing out front one day when General George Marshall walked by on his way to the City Hall which was the Air Force Headquarters at that time during World War II. We all were out front one day when President Franklin D. Roosevelt visited Asheville to dedicate the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Mr. Finkelstein was more than a friend to many of the ethnic community of char rime. I believe char he was the contact for visiting rabbis, Jewish transient people who needed help and communicated with them in Hebrew. All the employees learned to understand and communicate (somewhat) by talking to each other in Yiddish. Mr. Finkelstein played ar least ten or rwelve instruments, demonstrating in order to make a sale o r loan. The Silver Shirts In the 193{)!;>William Dudley Pelly operated the "Silver Shirts," a Nazi-like organiz.a- <!_ rion in a building across the street from the Jewish Community Center on Charlotte Street. He published the Libaation ~tkry,'tanti-Semitic literature with a circulation of eight thou- ~ sand. 0->n.--ln a parade, I was playing the saxophone with th~ Shrine Club Marching · le Band, and William Rosenfelt was carrying the Ameri n""i=Jag. Pelly in his Libaation Wftkry published a story that we were disgraced by a Jew with , · nose carrying the American flag. Pelly was arrested by the Buncombe County Sheriff's Department in 194 1 for selling unregistered stock. He was found guilty through the efforts ofJulius Levitch, a young Jewish lawyer by the name of Alvin Kurrus, and a local attorney named R.R. Williams. < �The Stolen ~tch William Rothenberg was a parient at the V.A. Hospital in Oteen. He moved to Asheville to live, married Freda Gross. I gave him a job as salesman in the pawnshop. He would go back to Oteen for treatments but was asked to stop. He got to drinking and was separated from his wife. A railroad watch from our display board was missing. A taxi driver told me that William Rotheuberg sent the watch to the other pawnshop in town by him, and he pawned it there for $20. I checked the serial numbers on the watch and they were the same as the ones on our watch. I asked Rothenberg about it and he said that he won it in a poker game the night before at the Langren Hotel. I checked with Fred Bradley, the night manager of the hotel and he advised me that there was no poker game in the hotel that night. Rothenberg got to drinking and Judge Cathey put him in jail with a sentence of 30 days. Judge Cathey released him from jail after I promised to send him to Miami, Florida where his ex-wife was living. I bought him a bus ticket and told him nor to return to Asheville. He clid not return. rv. I Am A Dime was born in the early pan of the twentieth century at the United States Mint in Philadelphia, put in a roll with forry-nine other climes and srupped to the Southern State Bank, of which Mr. S. Sternberg was president, on Depot Sueer in Asheville, North Carolina. M r. Sternberg had a son, Joseph, who later became president of the Asheville Lions Club. Mr. Sternberg rook me and the forry-nine other climes to his beautiful estate on Victoria Road in order to panicipare in a ten cent limit poker game with some of his friends. Someone tipped off the police that a game was goiug on. The home was raided and Mr. Sternberg gave the names of the players as Mr. Aleph, Mr. Baze, M r. Gimmel, Mr. Dolad, Mr. Hay, Mr. Vove, Mr. Zion and Mr. Hess. The Ashroilk Citiun carried a story after the trial that an attorney appeared in Police Court for Mr. Aleph, Mr. Baze, Mr. Gimmel, Mr. Dolad, Mr. Hay, Mr. Vove, Mr. Zion and Mr. Hess and paid their fines. Very few people knew that Aleph, Baze, Gimmel, Dolad, Hay, Vove, · , ess are the first eight letters of < the Hebr ~abet. I got sep te from the other dimes that came to Asheville with me. I found myself in the pocket of Chief Bernard of the AsheviUc Police Depanmenr. It was in Novemb61i'9P6, that the Chief phoned Uncle~ Harry, the pa~er, and said that he needed firearms and ammunition ro equip a posse of fifty men in order to hunt Will Harris, a desperado. Will Harris had shot and killed five men, two of whom were ciry policemen. Uncle Harry furnished the �posse with guns and ammunition, taking only the names of those receiving firearms. It was reported that Will Harris spent the night in a barn in Buena Vista. The posse surrounded him in a field near Fletcher and~him. His body was brought to an undertaking estab? ishmem at 21 South Main Srr e~ hung our of the second story window in the building in order to show the people t he had been killed and quieten them down. The next day, the Chief called Uncle Harry and asked if all the firearms had been returned. Uncle Harry said they had and commented that the people of Asheville were honest and good citizens. {Bob Ton//, wriur for rh~ Citizen-limes, ta/lud about this romt at on~ ofour mutings of Club.) th~ Lions (In 1968 th~ Bur~au ofAlcohol Tobacco and Fir~arms in Washington ~quir~d a ~cord of nl"J pistol rifo, rroolv~r that w~ ~aiv~d and dispos~d of, as ~11 as th~ mod~/. calib~r, urial numbu and manufoctur~r.

The Chief took me to Mr. Pa~e on South Main Street, bought his lunch which consisted of a ten cenr bowl of soup, a good supply of free crackers and catsup. OLM>Pff$'? 1P 1 Pa~rother Mr. operated the "Candy Kitchen" on Haywood Street. They were making a l<~t.gfs;ick candy in the shape of wa.lking sticks, colored red and white. The cafe owner bought a half dozen walking sticks from his brother, using me as part payment. He said that he was going to put the candy on his C hristmas tree. p.~fu,ed The next day Mr. on North Main Street, was coming to town in a rain storm. North Mai~;.:: ~t all side streets were not. They had stepping stones in order to get across. Mr. P~p?~ on a stepping stone, getting his shoes all muddy. He stopped at the Pack Square Shoe Shine Parlor, got a shoe shine for five cents and gave the shine boy a five cent rip. The nc:xt thing I knew I was placed in a deposit for the Wachovia Bank and I stayed in their vault until the year 1913. Uncle Harry picked me up rouse in his petty cash. His son asla:d for his weekly allowance and I was given to him with four other dimes. The son boarded a South Main Street streetcar on Pack Square with a fishing pole and a can of womu. He got off at the Swannanoa River and waiked a hundred yards toward the French Broad. In a couple of hours, he caught a nice suing of hog suckers, homey heads and perch out of the beautiful clear waters of the Swannanoa River. On his way home, he gave me to the conductor, received five cents change and a transfer to the North Main streetcar inor~e~ome. Z e-CondJ cror carried me around a few days and then gave me to a lady on the Rive · pen air" streetcar that ran to Riverside Park. Riverside Park was owned and operated by th~eville Power and Light Company, the same people who owned the street car company at was mally gobbled up by Lion Smith's Carolina Powe~d Light Company. This ady gave me to her husband who went down to the EIWClub and lost ~ me in a rummy game to a distinguished looking attorney they called "Judge Cocke." After the card game, the judge sat around talking to brother Elks and drinking beer. He was <.... ~ F.unous for his knowledge of North Carolina, people and places. He even talked about ._.; 44 the house of ill repute in Asheville at the rum of the cenrury known as the "Eagle Terrace" run by a lady called "Queen Elizabeth." r The next morning, Attorney Cocke defended a man in Police Court who was charged with stealing a pair of shoes and pawning them because he couldn't wear them on account of being too small. The court ordered the man to leave town that day. The man said he was hungry and didn't have any money. So Attorney Cocke gave me with other change to him. The man went down to the Asheville and East Tennessee Railway Company station ar the comer of North Main and College Streets. They operated an electric vehicle between Asheville and Weaverville. The man smelled hot dogs cooking at D. Gross's Hot Dog Srand next door, so he spent me for a hot dog and a coca-cola. Mr. Gross raised and educated a F.unily of thirteen children from the money he earned at his hot d og stand. Mr. Gross carried me around unci.l Saturday night when he went to Liggett's Drug Store for some headache powders. He stopped in from of the drug store to listen to the Salvation Army band while they were having a preaching and musical session. He put me in a pot they were using to get donations for their annual Christmas party. The Salvation Army bought a second-hand truck from Lion Fred Brown to be used in delivering food and clothing to the poor people in town. I was used in this transaction. Lion Brown rook me to a Lions Club meeting, where he used me to pay the dime he was fined by the Tail Twister for falling asleep during the program. The Tail Twister's wife took possession of me and bought some ribbon a Royal, a large department store on South Main Street, operated by Mr. Mo cis Myers.!? )1/t'Jt:R.

That is what you might think, but I don't! There is not one Jewish transient in five hundred worthy of any help at all. They travel from place to place using the fact that they are Jc:ws to prey upon other Jews. Many of them are ex-ronvicts, some just ordinary bums, and all of them liars. In this army of rogues, you will not find one who has a friend or relative who they could obtain help from. I have offered to wire to any person for hundreds of them, but they will teU you that all their friends or relatives are broke, or that they wouldn't think of asking any of them for money. Common sense will tell you that, if a transient is wonhy, there must be someone in this world who will help him to some extent. I am sure if any of you gentlemen were to find yourself broke in some fur off place, that you would have at least one friend or relative to whom you could wire for help. These swindlers don't want to get help from friends or relatives. They are just traveling around, enjoying life in a peculiar way, and living on the Je · pu ·c, their so-called brothers. QL - y So, when these Je "sh Bro / them? The only sensible possible. rs of ours come to town, what are we supposed to do with ng we can do is to get rid of them as quickly and as cheaply as The most common type of transient is the ordinary bum who claims that he has a job in a nearby city. All he wants from you is a couple of meals in a good restaurant, a room with a bath in a dean hotel, transponation to the place he is going, and maybe a pair of shoes, a couple of shirts and an overcoat. In order to get rid of this man quickly you must start talking befOre he does. So when I spot one, I start talking first. I ask him if he wants some help, and as soon as he says "Yet I hand him a half-dollar, a meal ticket to a nearby rataurant, and teU him to get the heU our of town as rut as he can. Most of them will take this and leave because they know, through their grapevine system, that this is all they can get- This system even infunns them where to go to when you get to a town, and that is why nobody sees the majority of these people except mysel£ Some of them insist that they have a special story ro teU you about their hard luck, and that they are different from the rest. These stories would make some of you break down and weep, but to me these stories are just a bunch of fabricated lies. Then, we have the group of transients who are physically disabled. Some are partially blind and crippled. They will claim to have tuberculosis, nervous indigestion, high blood prasure or what-not. Some will claim to have a combination or complication of diseases, or an assortment of ailments. If I am convinced that the transient is really ill, then I buy 40 him transponation to the nearest point, and get him out of town as last as I can. These people are never given cash for their transponation. A check is written to the bus station for their ticket, and the bus station has instructions to issue a ticket stamped "No Refund." This method was adopted after I found out some cashed their tickets back in to get cash, and bummed rides out on the highway to get to where they were going. A decent looking, elderly lady once appealed to me for help. She stated that she was almost blind, and was traveling with her son who was so crippled he couldn't walk. She told me that she and her son had come in on a bus late the night before, and were at a small hotel near the bus station. She advised me that her son was ill in bed, that she was out of funds, could not ay her hotel bill, had nothing to eat, and no way to get to a nearby city where her ~?In to enter a hospital. "A worthy case, at last!" I thought. I took her name, apd asi~Jier t come back in an hour, and I would see what I could do for her. I inquired ahhe.ho e , and found that nobody by the name she gave me was there. I asked her about this when she returned, and she said that she did not use her real name since it was Jewish, and she didn't want people to think she was Jewish. I called the hotel sor, <..___ ~~~red~~~=~~~~~~~~~~~ the two of them were registered there, but that her son seemed healthy, and was in and out of the hotel all day long. Asking her about this, she explained that her son went out only when he had to go to the drug store for medicine. It was cold and raining outside, so I called the hotel, and told them I would pay their bill, gave her enough for food, bought her two bus tickets, and gave her instructions to get out of town by night without fail. It wasn't long before I received a phone call from a Jewish person in town stating that this old lady had called on him, and he proceeded to cuss me out for not giving her any help. To make a long story short- she called on three more persons in the city with the same story- that I would not help her. A couple of hours later I went by the hotel where she was staying and found that she had checked out and left in her room many pieces of clothing that had been given to her by these people she had called on in the city. Then we have the rabbis. They are a wonderful type of transient to deal with. They usually get to town on Friday, so you have to keep them over "shabbos." That means an expense of two nights' lodging and meals for a whole day. In fact, all the transients who arrive on Friday are "very religious" and won't travel on Friday night or Samrday. I've had many rabbis promise to send me back the money I gave them, and never yet has one of them sent back a penny. In filet, of the hundreds of promises that I've had from all kinds of transients to return money given them, never has one kept his promise. �The president of the onhodox congregation on~ phoned me, and told me that a rabbi was at his howe and that this rabbi was a very fine person, a scholar, and a gentleman, a man in need, and suggested that I give him $5. I was jwt ready to leave my howe, and I informed the president that I did not have time to interview the rabbi myself. bur that if he thought the man was wonhy, to give him $5, and I would return that amount to him larer. I happened to pass by the president's howe jwt as the rabbi was leaving there, and I rook a good look at him. The nt:Xt morning, the same rabbi was at my place ofbwiness, wanting co know if I cook care of the Jewish transients. He wasn't a rabbi anymore, and he had changed his name. I told him to come along with me, and I would rake him to the man who could help him. He got into the front seat of my automobile, and wanted to know where we were going, and when I told him we were going co see the president of the onhodox congregation, he jumped out and ran. I ran after him, and caught him on Patton Avenue. He starred yelling like I was going to murder him, and a crowd started to gather, so I let him go, and he ran away again. I haven't seen him since. Another rabbi on~ appealed co me for help. and he claimed to be a brother-in-law of the rabbi in Greenville, SC. Knowing the rabbi in Greenville personally, I didn't believe he would send a brother-in-law of his our of the state to chisel the public, so I phoned long d.isrance to inquire about the man. The rabbi in Greenville informed me that this transient had worried the community there a couple of days before, that he was no relation of his, bur claimed to be a brother-in-law of the rabbi in Columbia. This man's system was to claim relationship to a rabbi in a nearby cicy. in order co get help. I gave him fifty ~nrs and a meal ticket, and told him to get out of town before dark He didn't leave, instead he called on other Jews in the cicy with the same story, and collected around $5 by noon the next day. I finally contacted him and cold him again to get our of town, which he refused to do. So, I had the poli~ department pick him up and put him in jail. In about an hour, I went over, and talked to him in jail, and he changed his tunc quite a bit. He was ready co leave town, so we let him out and this time I gave him fifteen minutes to disappear- and he did! Another rabbi onc.e called on me and stated that he was a representative of a Jewish institution somewhere in Europe, and wanted a donation for it. I explained to him that we had a federated Jewish charities here to help him, and he would have to make his request through them. He kept insisting that I give him a donation personally, and I kept refusing him. He finally gave up, proceeded to ews me out in Yiddish, in a extremely loud voice and this wasn't all- he spit on the floor, slammed the door as hard as he could as he wenr out. I fdt like killing him, and I think it would have been jwcifiable homicide. I could cell you many tales of my experiences with these human vultures, but one I remember in panicular was the rime when a local judge phoned me and told me that he would have to try a young boy by the name of Goldberg for vagrancy. He asked me to recommend to him what to do with the boy. I wem over to see the defendant, and he happened co be one of the transients I had helped a few days before. He had ordered a sandwich at a small restaurant on the outskins of town, refused to pay for it, so the restaurant man had him arrested. I told the judge of my experiences with the Jewish t.ransients and asked him co make an example out of this boy, so he gave him thiny days on the road. In sentencing the boy, the judge told him that from now on every Jewish transient that was brought before him would get a road semen~. Then I really got criticized by the Jewish community for putting Jewish boys on the chain-gang. I was shown a copy of his criminal record from che FBI a few days Iacer. He had been convicted of all kinds of offenses from stealing a bicycle co highway robbery. After the boy got out, he came to see me again, and feeling sorry for him, I bought him a ticket to Charlotte, and informed him that I would sec that every transient from now on coming into Asheville would get a road semen~. Before that time, we had from ten to thiny transients per month appealing for help. It was interesting to note that we didn't have another transient come into Asheville for six weeks after the boy left, and for a long time after that appeals for help were half of what they had been before that. It is my sincere recommendation that every Jewish transient, coming into Asheville, be put in jail for a certain length of time. This is the only way co cure this evil. Of course, the Jewish community wouldn't stand for anything like that, they would rather give these damned hoodlums a few hundred dollars every year. Then, we have the transients coming through in family groups. These groups consist of a mother and father with one or more children. They wually arrive in a dilapidated old automobile. Most of the time, the automobile needs some repairs before they can leave town in it; it never has any gasoline and wually needs a couple of quatts of oil. These patties are expensive and hard to handle, becawe you can hardly send small children on their way without a night's sleep and proper food. Of course, I have some deserving cases, bur I don't class these with the transients. For instance, a man once came in to see me with the story that he had tuberculosis, and he had come down here from Detroit as his doctor had recommended this climate to him. He expected co gee a job as an elevator boy, or something of the sort, and he was under the impression that the climate here would cure him while he worked. Well, the man was broke and was waiting for some financial help from his brother whom he had written a few �days before. I gave the man $4 and he promised ro pay me back as soon as he heard from his brother. He came back the ncxr day. He had heard from his brother. He showed me the lcrrer and his brother enclosed $ 10 which was all that he could send. He told me that he was unable to find work, and was going to scan back for Detroit. He offered me the $4 I had given him. I asked him how he expected to get back to Detroit on $6, and he cold me that he would have co hitchhike. I told him to keep the $4, and wished him the best of luck. While I am nor a doctor, I was under the opinion from his looks that his health would never permit him to hitc€Juk'f_ ~~cf.~m ynd get there alive. ~~ch~ So for twenty years, I have bunch of beggars, coming from north, south, east, and west. They have become a part of my life, and if I could get out of this job right now, I am sure I would miss this horde of gangster.; that hop around from place co place like a bunch of grasshopper.; in a clover patch. Vli. War Years fiiot on 023 / "fin admission co the Air Force in 1943 I was ~ imetkwed as to what activity I had in a business or profession, also what experience I had in religious, fraternal or civic affair.;. I told them I was just a clerk in a pawnshop. I didn't tell them that I once: -was president of a cemetery. - was an owner of a company that built floats and decorated the town for the fim Rhododendron Festival in Asheville. -supplied the Asheville Police Department and the Sheriff's Department with guns and ammunition. I didn't tell them anything about my civic, fraternal, religious or social activities. I was sent to Tishomingo, Oklahoma for training in the Oklahoma State College for Agriculture to be an Air Force clerk in engineering. After graduating from the clerk's school in TIShomingo, I felt I would have an easy life in the Air Force being an engineering clerk. But my duties from Tishomingo to the islands in the South Pacific were: kitchen police mess hall fireman mess hall garbage director cleaning chickens �\ policing grounds digging ditches hauling poles ~ hauling fire:)vood hauling coal ,_ fighting forest fires ~ ) sorring merchandise a~house sorting salvage merchandise smashing tin cans hauling water finance clerk derail clerk runner for headquarrers sracking lumber cleaning rifles and machine guns building roads repairing bridges laying concrete operating gasoline pump telephone operator making inventories of supplies accing C. Q. pulling weeds and grass watering trees loading and unloading trucks loading and unloading freight cars loading barracks bags on boars and trucks cleaning harche.< on boars latrine orderly painting machinery communications clerk and finally, engineering clerk for the 394th Squadron, 5th bomb group of the 13th Air Force. ' Gerring a good grade on my education at lishomin South Pacific I thoughr I was ready to do my job. '---My first difficulry was when A pilot comes in to see me afrer a combat mission on a B-24 Bomber number 023 and said that he failed to put on his reponing form #I that the rachometer indicator occilates excessively, would I please write it in the form for him. I rold him I would. You know, I didn't know what the h--- he was talking about and I couldn't even spell it. Tokyo Rose Tokyo Rose was an American girl broadcasting from a radio station in Japan during World War II. Her broadcast was received by the 13th Air Force in the Admiralty Islands located in the South Pacific area. / She played recorded American music in her broadcast. She advised us that our wives and sweethearts were daring the 4 F's - the men who srayed our of military service - and they would go to drive-ins for hamburgers and ~oca-colas. She also said that the Japanese would be waiting for our B-24 bombers scheduled for a mission in the morning with anri-aircrafr guns and fighter planes. Radios were scarce on rhe island. wanted to listen to Tokyo Rose so I wrote home and requested a small radio to be shipped ro me. They advised that the smallest radio weighed roo much to be shipped overseas by parcel post but they would rake it apace and ship it in two packages which was acceptable at the post office. uo in World Wor II �The radio deparunenr of the 5th Bomb Group said they would be glad to put the radio together for me. When I received the shipment in two packages I gave it to them. They repaired. it the best they could. I found that when I turned it on, it would work for abour a minute and then quit receiving. They could not find the trouble. One day I took a screw driver, tightened all the screws and thought I found rhe trouble. I put the radio on the table in the tent, started it receiving and in one minute it stopped. I was disgusted. I hit rhe radio, knocked it off rhe table; it hit rhc floor, bounced about two feet and started playing. It was okay from then on. In about a week Captain Gardner in the engineering department sent word that he wanted to sec me as soon as possible. I thought I had fouled up on keeping his engineering records but he had this to say: "Corporal Finkdstein we are having trouble repairing cqe radio on airplane No. 022 and we understand that you are the only one in the 394th Squadron that can solve our problem. Wtll you help us?" I forgot what I said, but I couldn't figure out how to knock an airplane off the table. Topless WOmen Now if you read the morning paper, you noticed headlines on the from page: "Topless Night Club Opens in Asheville." Well, you didn't need a night club to see topless women on those Sourh Pacific Islands during World War II. The trouble was they would move all the women to another island close by the island we occupied. We built a motor boar made of two airplane belly tanks and a small power unit so that we could go over and sec the women at another island. I didn't go over to see the women. I wasn't afraid of them, bur I was afraid the boat might sink. Before the war Smokey Joe owned a road house on the highway going south from Asheville and after talking to him I found that I had patronized his instirution on numerous occasions during my younger years. Since we were practically neighbors in civilian life, we felt rhat we should continue over there as good neighbors and so we were. There is no better friend in the army than a cook because when you get hungry, he is rhe only man who can help you out. In passing I might mention that Smokey Joe, Starvin Marvin and I have on numerous instances enjoyed eating surplus stocks of food from the Mess Hall. Smokey Joe told me that Sheriff Brown, in Asheville, took his automobile away from hiJ? once because rhe sheriff had found some whiskey in it that he was rransponing to his road house. In 1944, Sergeant Joe received a shipment of canned corn. Instead of using it for chow, he built a still in a fox hole and made corn whiskey out of it. In a neighborly spirit he _. invited me to drink what I wanted of the corn whiskey and he helped me trade watch bands for coca-cola syrup and ice cream from a Navy,C.B. outfit located near by. ~ While overseas, besides having corn whiskey made by Joe and medical alcohol diluted 50% by water and flavored with burnt sugar, we were able to buy bonded whiskey from the flying personnel who didn't drink their rauon~~were looking for souvenirs so I wrote<( Lion Nat Friedman to send me a Jap~e har~tkari k.ti e from his antique store. He sent<:___ me a similar one. It was a-cir~ ~a~ · e with Turkish letters on it. My cost was $4. It looked Iii<{; hare:kari lq\ife. I gave it to Sergeant Joe and asked him to see if h< 'hl:.oond~hiskey. He reported later that he couldn't get a fifth of could trade for a fifth whiskey for it but he did get two fifths for it. Now Smokey is fighting to get his freedom - his freedom to go home and dodge Sheriff Brown some more. Srarvin Marvin wants ro go home and see his wife and two year old boy, a child that he has never seen, and so it is with me - I want ro go home - I just want to go home. World 'War II Diary Sergeant joe Sergeant Smokey Joe's home is just a little bit south of Asheville, NC. He was mess good guy, and a GI who could sympathize with all the ~er had to eat the food he prepared. sergean~e 394th squadron, a Vo 48 I had nothing to do while recovering from a recent surgery so I found my World War II diary and read the following: Before the war, I thought know Sherman was right. bein[~e army would be a thrilling advenrure - bur now I 7l (_ �Before the war, I thought the Air Force was a mechani~d force- but now I wonder what the hell I'm marching for. cwfff.J VJI[. Mter the War lkfore the war, I thought the .AJhroi/k Citizm was a 9181ten newspaper - but now I enjoy reading one four days old. Sgt. Smokey joe Before the war, I would drink a cocktail before dinner - but now I drink milk with my dinner. Before the war, I would sometimes go to bed at 4 a.m. - but now I get up at 4 a.m. Before the war, I was particular about what girl I took out- but now I'm not so particular. Before the war I struggled over a golf course- but now I struggle over an obstacle course. Before the war, I used to shine at a dance - but now I shine my shoes. Before the war, I cussed at a golf ball - but now a sergeant cusses at me for not being on the ball. lkfore the war, I didn't have much religion - but now I pray for a furlough. Soon after a prayer for a furlough, the Red Cross advised me that a business associate of mine had committed suicide and I had been granted a rwo weeks emergency furlough for a trip home. A ~ 'Jtrer the war Smokey Joe opened his road house agam near Greenville, SC. He carne to see me and advised that they had arrested his partner for hauling whiskey in Buncombe Counry and wanted to know if I could help him out. I told him I knew the Chief of Police and Sheriff Brown and I would be glad to see what the situation was. He mid me they couldn't help as it was the federal authorities that arrested his partner. Thinking of how to get him a light sentence, I asked Joe if his partner was in the armed forces and he said that rhey had turned him down because he had a heart murmur. I told Joe to send his partner to Lion Dr. Feldman who was federal physician and I would get a report from him as to his heart murmur. Lion Dr. Feldman told me he had a heart murmur and as a federal physician he would advise Judge Warlick about it in federal court. At the trial, Joe's partner got a suspended sentence. Later he carne to see me with a roll of hundred dollar bills and wanted to pay me for getting him off. I refused the money and told him that Joe had helped me out during the war and what I did was a favor to Joe. Later he brought me six fifths of scotch for a present which I kept. Corn Whiskey at Road House Before the war, road houses would hide the corn �whiskey they served their guests in a container under a bed. When the sheriff's deparunent would raid the joint, they usually wouldn't look for it there. One night they found it and an article appeared in the AJhroilk Citizm that the sheriff's department confiscated a gallon of whiskey hid in a container at a road house. jim Dive/hiss and Beaver Lake Returning home from World War II, I was interested in building a house to live in. Jim Divelbiss, president of the Asheville Lions Club 1941-1942, said that he had a lot across the street from his home on Westwood Road in Lakeview Park and if I would build a om• story house so he could see Beaver Lake over the roof of my house, he would give me a good deal. I acquired the lot and built the house. He told me that as a resident of Lakeview Park I should take on some activity for the benefit of the park. He took me to the annual meeting of the property owners and I was elected as one of the three commissioners - no salary. When I met with the other two commissioners they told me I had charge of the lake and fishing and they would back me up in anything I wanted to do. I got phone calls. ~ I got a phone call from a resident ~~who said "stop the fishing, the fish arc diseased." contaCted the game warden from thtr:r<i"''ild.life Resources Commission and we found that a service st2tion alongside the creek that fed the lake had put old oil from automobiles in the creek. and it had k.illed a few fish. -v I got a phone call from a lady that an awful looking man wearing overalls was fishing. I asked her if she expected him to wear a ruxedo. I got a call advising that two women indecently dressed were near the dam of the lake. '"">I found..!.- •o be the wives of the two commissioners 811.11 ilafftillg.. t" - j\''Y<;u ~n 1 U1 • I found two men swimming in the lake, which was against the rules. They wid me they would swim and that I couldn't stop them. I told them to swim if they wanted to and that a sewer line had broken and was emptying in the lake, and they would probably get typhoid fever. They stopped swimming. I found a group of women in bathing suits with a photographer at the lake near Glenn Falls Road. I found them to be local beauticians getting their picture with the lake in the background. They were using the picrure on a cover of a program for a state convention of beauticians in Asheville. Fishing in the lake was allowed for licensed property owners only. I saw a man standing at the edge of the lake for 30 minutes just looking. On investigation I found he had a line tied to his belt that ran down the inside of his pants leg over his shoe into the lake. On the line he had a float and a haired hook. When the fish would bite and pull the float under he would kick his leg, hang the fish, pull it in, and nobody would know he was fishing. I appreciated what Lion Divelbiss had done by getting me elected to be fish commissioner of Beaver Lake. But I got a call that I was going to be elected president of Congregation Beth-Ha-Tephila and that construction would be started soon on a temple at Liberty and Broad Streets. I thought I could use some religion so I didn't run again for commissioner of Lakeview Park and I took up my duties as president of Beth-Ha-Tephila. I completed the financing of the building of the new temple in two years. I was tired out and hoped that maybe I could get some rest by being fish commissioner again at Bc:av~r Lake. Sternberg Hunting Rats _) Lio~ub <('_ ~ Joe Sternberg was president of the in 1960-6 I. His father, Siegfried Sternberg, came over to the U.S. at the tum of the century, procured a horse and wagon, and drove around western North Carolina buying cowhides and junk. He finally opened a junk yard on Depot Street and became one of the largest cowhide dealers in the United States. Lion Joe was my classmate in the Asheville High School class of 1922. He rented a freight car on the local freight train to Murphy and bought cowhides at the stations where the train stopped. I was watch inspector for the Southern Railway and would travel on the same train, giving the employees a certificate that in my opinion the watch they had wouldn't vary over 30 seconds a week. Going west you could go as far as Waynesville by auto and then by train to Murphy. Lion Joe Dave, president of the club in 1932, was conmuction engineer for the Sternberg Company who supplied steel for the construction of buildings. Later he organized the Dave Steel Company. Old man Sternberg did well financially and became president of the Southern State Bank on Depot Street. �He became active in civic, religious and fraternal affairs in Asheville. He built a big home on Victoria Drive. He didn't like the hdp he was gerring in Asheville so he imported a beautiful young maid from Germany. The maid went down to get an item from the garage and found Mr. Sternberg there. Mr. Sternberg got fresh with the maid, the maid -;..1 - -:,?ricked up a.22 caliber rifle that I sold him and shot him. The wound wasn't serious. The next morning a news item appeared in the Ash~ilk Citiun: "Sternberg Wounded While Hunting Rats in the Garage." Irving S.

In a couple of days a news item appeared in the Ash~vilk Citiun wrirrcn by Irving Cobb: "The Bunk of Buncombe." Read news article from Asheville Citizen-Times on suicide ;::::..-;::::. ~ I was reminded of an historical event years ago when I was sdling guns. A customer said he wanted an inexpensive pistol to keep in his home and he just obtained a permit to buy it. I sold him a.22 caliber lver Johnson pistol. This type gun was later known as a (_ "Saturday Night Special." sai?J "Don't call me mister, When I completed the sale I sai:)."Thank you, mister." He I'm a doctor. You call me doctor." I said, "Thank you, doctor." He took the gun home and committed suicide with it. Now I got to thinking. If he bought the gun today, he would have to make application to get a permit and wait rwo or three days for the permit to be issued. Maybe if he ~ had to wait that long for a permit, he might have changed his mind about the suicide. c. \ "'-... Then, I wondered why, as a doctor, he didn't write a prescription for some high powered sleeping pills, take several of them and just go to sleep and not wake up. I think I got an explanation. If any of you had to buy prescription drugs today, you know how expensive they are. And if they were that expensive back then when this happened, I guess the doctor felt he could save money by committing suicide with a "Saturday Night Special."

We soon found out that the golden years of life arc: just gold plated - the gold wears off and you find yourself in a situation of assorted problems. I was in the World War II battle in the South Pacific but I found that it was a cinch compared to the "old age" battle in the Summit. Some of the residents here arc: physically disabled and some arc: menrally disabled. I am 92 years old and I find that all the residents over 90 years of age are both mentally and physically disabled. In moving to apartment # 108, I asked if! could bring my piano. I was advised that my apartment had sound proof walls and it would be OK. A female resident in an apartment near me said that she enjoyed listening to me practicing but please don't play before eight o'clock in the morning- "it's liable to disturb my sleeping." The Summit was described to me as a "country club" retirement home with beautiful grounds, good entertainment and delicious food. In the so-called "country club retirement home," I am still looking for the golf course and a swimming pool. The department serving food is the best outfit here. The meals are delicious but I've never been �~ffered a cocktail befor~ dinner. The strongest drink I've ever had here has been i4ea. The Sanctimonious Band / Some day maybe we will have an enuee of a Maine lobster o r a wild duck on toast. I couldn't figure out my monthly bill. I was told that the adding machine I had was an antique and what I needed was a calculator and computer to get the correct amount. I was advised that the easiest thing for me to do was to write a check for the amount listed as BAlANCE on my statement. That would be satisfactory with the Summit. I never worry about paying my bills to the Summit - I let them worry. If I go broke, I'll just go next door to the Veteran's Hospital where I can get in any time since I have a disability discharge from World War 1!. The 1997 elections are over and I'm glad I'm a Democrat because I don't like what the Republicans will do with my benefits I get from Medicare and other government agencies to help pay the Summit. The Democrats are not so hot either. They lowered interest rates so much on my government bonds so now I have to cash them in order to have enough money to buy drugs. b. I played the piano with the Sanctimonious Band and we performed old songs and new, for Lions Club Ladies Day meetings and other gatherings. Sometimes I wrote songs similar to those that were sung by soldiers after World War II. Fritz Abertson wrote melody notes and completed the music for songs about Lions Club members who were veterans of World War II. j - Snapoo - Snapoo j Oh Madame - oh Madre, your daughter i I'd like to take her out a date Snapoo -snap-= . g scannie, Go-sn= Snapoo - Snapo i_n Oh sir - oh sir, she · roo young Snapoo - Sna o Oh sir - oh sir, s is too young She's never been ·sscd by any man's son Snapoo - snap , go-scannie, Go-sneeze Snapoo - napoo LN IINi Sylvia Oh Mother oh Mother, I'm not too young Snapoo - Snapoo Oh Mothe - oh Mother, I'm not too young I've been cd by the Rabbi's son Snapoo - ap-cczc, go-scannie, Go-sneeze Snapoo - Snapoo - �Oh Mother - oh Mother, Shelby's awful nice S apoo - Snapoo / 0 other - oh Mother, Shelbtwful nice 's An ow he's already kissed me icc Sn - snap-cc::zc, go-scannie, Go-sn= Snapoo - Snapoo Oh ~other - oh Mother, we' e leaving to eat S~apoo- Snapoo Oh M~er- oh Mother, e're leaving to eat We'~e t ·ng a ride in his my jeep Sna~a~:a:s:e~o-s Oh nie, Go-sneeze Mbth~ - oh Mo er, the moon is bright Snapo~Sna Oh Mod-i r oh M ther, the moon is bright d I' stay out all night Now Shel , go-scannie, Go-sneeze Snapoo - sn ~ Snapoopoo #2 I forgot to turn the srove off and the coffee pot was melted. #3 I forgot to turn the lights off. #4 I forgot to take my hearing aid with me. #5 I forgot to take my walking cane with me. #6 I forgot to take my reading glasses with me. #7 I forgot to rake my teeth. #8 I forgot to go to the bathroom - for my pills.

He wanted to know how I was going to pay my bill. I told him chat a former doctor in his establishment would accept Medicare, also ocher insurance benefits and send me a bill for what he didn't collect. I would chen send him a check. He advised that there were deductions on my insurance during me first part of the year and wanted to k.now if I had considered them. I rold him I didn't know, but I would write him a check now if he wanted it. Memory My memory is getting worse.

So now, I'm looking forward to the future with many years of fears and tears, suffering from: memory loss, over-reacting. trouble with eating, sleeping and weeping, coor<lination, irritation, and constipation. I had something to say about hc:r in a lenc:r back home which is rc:cordc:d in my <liary as follows: 20 Oaob" 1943 ~ I can't tell you where I'm at because the censor wouldn't like it. I can't tdl you what kind of clothes I've been issued because you would know was going. I can't tell you about the camp because it's against the rules. \ I can't tdl you about my equipment; it would jeopardize my security. Prayer, or Humor, or What? I wondered what is the most beneficial to me- PRAYER, or HUMOR, or WHAT? Is it time for me to laugh, cry or <lie? "";;, I sent copies of my World War II Diary [see page~ to two preachers chat responded ' { as follows: I can tell you this though - I had a date with a girl I knew in AsheviUe by the namf of Sylvia who used to live in C hicago, who is now living in Los Angdes and who is visiting sdlne friends in a town near here and she is JUST AS SWEET AS EVER. After my rerum home after three: years overseas in World War II, I found her JUST AS SWEET AS EVER. And we got married. From preacher #1: Dearw: Thanlu for the grrat pieu. I enjoyed it!

Our Historian, Lion Leo Finkelstein , gave another of his highly am u sing reports from the Pacific Theatre in World War II; It seems that some of his buddies and he on one occasion in particular experienced a rather serious air attack. Immediately I I thereafter, one earned the name Starvin Marvi n and our own pocket pianist became known as " Leo the Hero" what time he wasn't called Foxhole Finkelstein. Without a doubt, foxholes were handy things to be in with the Japs dropping bombs all over the place .

Finklcstcin and a couple of scr 6~ants were dispatched across the airbase to deliver a bomber to another section of the field. Cpl. Finklestein was ordered to sign a receipt for over a million dollars worth of aircraft ; then while apparently he was at the controls, Sgt . hooked a cle-trac to the nose of the airplane and. delivered it to the nearest refueling stop where Cpl. Finkelstein ordered "fill er up" and i t took 3,000 gallons of high octane avi ation fuel for that purpose. Lion PP Leo was grateful that he and the sergeants wer e not required to pay for that load of gasoline out of their own. pockets. Thanks Leo, for the memories.

Before the program, PP Leo regaled us again with one of his tales from an Army Air Corps Base. He had written a letter fro• said base to friends and relatives whose subject was the PX.

In the days when you traveled to Waynesville by car and then caught a train to Murphy, Old Man Sternberg went ab out buying and selling cow hides and junk and sometimes his son, Joe, accompanied him all the way to Murphy. On one occasion, after he had acquired a local bank, the elder Mr. Sternberg lent a circus $200.00 and took an elephant as collateral. The elephant, of course, ate too much; and the only way the bank could recoup was to sell the manure to a local nursery and florist shop Middlemont Gardens.

We have two assurances a 1. There will be no pornography or e•barrasing state•ents such as we see and hear on the radio and television. TODAY'S PROGRAM was presented by Program Chairman, Lion Helen Smith, who introduced Lion PP Leo Finkelstein and Lion Ann Rice. Lion Leo had put together a script containing some of his highly hilarious experiences as a soldier in the Islands of the Pacific during WWII. It took the form of questions--as posed by Lion Ann--and answers by Lion Leo and was entitled "The Love. (?) Life of a Soldier in WWII." To Ye Ed the funniest episode referred to the fact that a much maligned bombardier spotted a red light the women on the island." ~nd "blew up all of All present got many belly laughs out of today's program; and we thank you Lions Helen, Ann, and Leo for presenting to us so many opportunities for same . To Lion Leo: Please keep reducing your memoirs to writing and make them available to all of us in book form. \ Lion Leo then regaled us with another of his Hysterical Moments, this time in ve~y amt~sing poetry. Keep up the good work, Lion Leo, yot1 ft1r~1~h us wi ~ h wonderful opportunit · to laugh; "the best med1c1ne". les ,, �Following Father Bob's exposition, Lion Helen called upon Lion PP Leo Finkelstein for another of his highly humorous experiences on islands in the Far East. This time, Lion Leo · read to us some excerpts ·of letters he had written home--primarily to his m~ther--about Hanukkah and Christmas. These letters told the great contrast between conditions where he was and conditions in the home kept spotleis and extremely comfortable by his "Mom". belo~ed To Ye Ed these letters bespeak of the tremendous love and affection a young soldier had for his beloved mother and the wonderful memories that he had of his home and homeland. Lion Historian Leo added another jewel to his co l lection of letters from the Sout h Pacific. The Historical report was given by Lion Leo Finkelstein aMd was most ent~rtaining as usual. ~hank you Lion Leo for sharing part of your past with us. ~ Lion Leo then gave us the benefit of •ore of his very. pleasurable "Historica~ Mo ~ents." This ti•e he reflected upon experiences that he and so•e friends had at the old Asheville High School--if me•ory s~rves correctly--at or about 1922. According to Lion Leo, those were interesting and memorable days indeed; especially when an auto•obile was available. Thanks, Leo, for sharing with us so•e of you~ wonderful •emeries that re•ind us of how A•erica was and perhaps could be agian. PP Guy Penland presented the Eye Clinic Report as follow: Total Units of work for January, 455; &7 referrals to personal Physicians were made; Eye Glasses donated, 38 and 22 sets of lenses; Eye Exa• and Glasses provided by the Clinic, 2 pair; Eye Care Assistance provided through the eye glass program, 27; Volunteers donated 111 hours of service.

The delicious •eal was supple•ented with a large, chocolate birthday cake. The •eeting was ~alled to order at noon by Lion President Dr. Al Anderson. The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Lion PP John Heatherly and the invocation was given by Lion J.W. Kibler. Lion PDG Ji• Parker introduced our distinguished guest Lion DG Tony Dalton. Lion DG Tony congratulated us on our 70th anniversary •aking us the oldest club in District 31A. We can also clai• the oldest president of a 31A club, Lion PP __.Leo FinkelsteiQ, and the oldest •e•ber, Lion PP Bill Plu••er. L~on Tony urged us to intensify our fund raising for "Sight First" this year and our •e•bership drive to add at least 10% •ore •••bers. The district •ay be rearranged if overall •e•bership continues to fall. By the way, Lion Leo will be 88 in June and Lion Bill will be 9& the sa•i •ontR. -- ~ Lion PDG Jack Cole gave a brief history of our club. We were sponsored by the Wiryston-Sale• Club and beca•e the 10th Club in North Carolina when we received our charter on March 22, 1923. There were 50 charter •e•bers. The oldest ljvjgg ..-p~sldent a L.;igp Lep (1939-ML) followed by Llon - DanFurr <1943-44>. The band started ~n the 70's under the leadership of Lion PP Sheriff Charlie Long. Lion Leo retired and started playing the piano while Lion Jack soon joined as a fiddler. The band now known as the 'Sancti•onious Seven' consisted today of Lions Fritz <and son Dave>, Ben, John, George, Jack, and Bill. This was Lion Bill Anderson's debut on the dru•s and he sounded quite professional without rehearsing or •usic. The band proceeded to play our old favorites: 'Loneso•e Road Blues', 'Yes Sir That's My Baby', 'Five Foot Two and Eyes of Blue', 'In the Good 01' Su••erti•e', ' I ' • Forever Blowing Bubbles', and closed with their the•e song 'She Wore a Tulip & I Wore a Big Red Rose'. awe» 'I Lion PP Leo entertained us with so•e early history of he club. He spoke of •eeting in the '30's in the S&W afeteria when •eals cost less than t1.00. He spoke of a elebration of so•e obscure event when 97 •e•bers out of a possible 100 attended a stag party on Beaucather Mountain hi!:h illu~tr~ted tt;a pa1•ticipat.iu11 in those days. Leo's re•iniscence is always a•using and sti•ulating. \~ �LION LEO presented another install•ent of his historical <I call'•• "hysterical"> experiences in Uncle Sa•'s Ar•y during WWII. The funniest part of today's install•ent had to do with the •any uses of his hel•et; particularly under his bed. It brought the house down when Leo told us that during a" ~------~ ~ J ~specti~ wh~~der hts bed, it was found to contain . 1 '• pretty near a gallon of kickapoo joy juice. This after •any I other valid and necessary uses. Please accept, ~eo, ~ur heartfelt appreciation for the wonderful •anner 1n wh1ch you lighten the burden of our lives.

Lion Leo commented that t h is report was #71 on WWII of a total of 150 such reports. This time he discussed (if memory serves co rr ectly) a ten mile march with a ri~e , a te nt with metal pegs , field rations , a mess kit , toothbrush , a canteen of water a nd other odds and ends of military equipment hanging from his back and shoulders and arms. The way he described this experien ce was very amusing to all of us; but to him at the time, especia lly in a hot desert su n, it couldn't have been and wasn't amusing to him. But we thank you, Lion Leo , for you r reminiscenses and for your having done your patriotic duty-serving your country and doing "everything (they) could get (you) to do" . Keep these reports coming--for they enliven our me e tings. Leo ' s Hysterical Moments consisted this time of Leo's P t·esct•i pt ion fot· a "Good Day" .

Thanks, Leo, and please continue to brighten our meetings with your "Hysterical Moments". ----------------------------~ ' Lion PP Leo t~e ad us a ·letteor ft~oll WWII about his Ait~ Force latrine. Although it sounded luxurious by G.I. standard s , it was s o infested by insects and spiders that Leo couldn't enjoy his customary quiet time to read the paper.

The Pledge o f Allegiance was led b y Bev Watson and the Invocation pronounced b y Lion Father Bob. We sang the usual two songs as led by Lio ns Joe and Jack. We really missed Lion PP Leo in this regard and hope that he can arrange his s c hed ule to be with us at the regular meetings. LION LEO'S HYSTERI~AL MOMENTS: Took us back to the Asiatic Theater and how the military trained and honed recruits into real Soldfers, Sailer s, and Marines. But, from discussions around poker tables and other gaming devices, none of them lost their individual American independence and true patriotism. Nor did Lion Leo ever l o se his wonderful humor and gift of saying so even though now he spends his time between his home and the Summit, where Liones s Sylvia is confined to bed. �PP LEO'S HYSTERICAL MOMENTS consisted of one of his letters to Sylvia in which he could not tell her exactly what he was doing or where he was. But she and home were greatly mis sed by t h at particular GI in the pacific. Lion Leo also told us about a group of Asheville High S chool students, including himself and our departed Lion Joe Ster nb erg in a Marmon automobile in which a good time was had by all. They drove to the fo~t of Mt . Pisgah wh ere they enjoyed <?> "yams and 'po ss um". Lion Leo entertained us with several more letters from the WWI I et'a.

Lion Leo's Hysterical Moments consisted of some very amusing poems that he composed while a student at Asheville High School back in the early 1920s. His Thanatopsis to Algebra was most fitting; especially to those of us who struggled so unsuccessfully with that subject. Keep bringing these gems to us, Lion Leo. They brighten our meetings beyond measure • . .

They continue to c . br1ghten our day. Lion President Ann reminded PP Lion Leo that he owes us two Hysterical Moments, one of which he disch~rged today telling about his typing teacher, Miss Anderson, of Tishomingo, Oklahoma and the fact that she had the pleasure of enjoying the only private bathroom in Tishomingo. This was in Tishomingo's only hotel and was not far from the dining area that also served for linen and storage and a place for lumber. Under Miss Anderson's tutelage, Lio~ Leo ' got up to 30 words per minute on the typewriter. Good gain', Leo and keep'em comin'.

Lion PP Leo reported a recent occurance at the Ashwood Apartments of the Su•mit retirement home which resembles an Alfred Hitchcock movie. We are still trying to figure out who was under the bed. He also t'eported the formula for ",jungle juice" developed during WWII ~hie~ led to marketing of speculative gold mine stock. Thanks Leo. Don't get caught. 2f �Lion Leo'~ "Hysterical Moments" consisted of some of his poignant 111emories of WWII. He told about "Waiting in Lines" and timed various activities: some in minutes and some in seconds. But Lion Leo said that while he was in the Service it took a :ull ·sundC\y to t'ecuperate from the Saturday night before. L1on Leo closed by reading to us a copy of a letter he wrote to "Dear Mom" in which he expressed the tremendous contrast we all experienced between home and the military. He spoke for all of us when he expressed to his mom love and a deep appreciation for the many good things she did for hi~ that so easily ca111e to mind to one particular soldier. . &. Lion Leo gav~ . det4iled instructions on taking a bath out of a helment during WWII. His instructions were somewhat vague but he declined a generous offer to demonstrate the technique at a later •eeting. Too bad, he could qualify for a ~uppor~ . role on NVPD Blue. Leo's Hysterical Moments consisted of a detailed description of Christmas in 1943 on Guadalcanal among Lion Leo and several Gis engaged in conquering the Japanese. Mail call at that particular time was usually very heavy--even for Lion Leo, who had requested no 111ail Ot' gi'f·cs. B•..1t he wcas loaded tou. The Asheville Lions Club's then secretary <who later beca•e a District Governor> Lion Wesley Brown sent Lion Leo a box of eggs in the middle of which was a can of beans, which Lion Leo hid in his gas mask without opening until his birthday many moons away at which time he discovered in the can among some cotton batting two ounces of good bottled in bond whiskey. That had to be the finest can of beans Lion Leo ever opened. Keep' em coming, Lion Leo. We all 1 ove' em. -PP Ll0n L~o put u~ in became obvious to him that ~ prior to WWII. Keep th ~ se l Lion Leo; we love them and ~·---- - ..- - -···-- atitche~ ov~~ th~ fact that it he would not make Sergeant Hysterical Moments coming, we love you. Shortly thereafter, PDG Jim Parker presented and PDGs Jack Cole and Your Truly pinned Melvin Jones Awards (about as high as you can get in Lionis•> upon Lions Leo Finkelstein and Joe Parsons. This honor is well deserved by both of them and as ti111e goes on others of the Club will be so signally honored. Congratulations to both of o~r new Melvin Jones Fellows. Keep on keepin' on. I .\ �3J LION LEO' S "HYSTERICAL MOMENTS" consisted of a quote from the As heville Citizen-Times repeating and extolling Lion Leo's classic poem written from the South Seas during WWII in which Lion Leo expt•essed ovet• and over " I :· W na Go Home " and he gave many good t•easons therefot·. an All of u s , if we could, would h av e joined in that t' e f t' a i n • A g a i n , o u t' t h an k s , L i o n L e o , and k e e p tl p t h e good work .

They had heard of "Queen Elizabeth" and her group of "girls" who occupied a brothel knownas •Red Brick" and proceeded to visit same. Each of Queen Elizabeth's "employees" had a health certificate hanging in her room and there were different prices for different services. According to Lion Leo, he and Lt. Hagen requested and paid for the ~ery . minimal in services; but, apparently, each swore the other to secrecy and Lion Leo at the conclusion of his dissertation stated that he would •answer no questions". As with so many of Lion Leo ' s experiences, •those were good ole days•. Thank you, Lion Leo, for sharing with us so many amusing and memorable occasions as undergone by you--sometimes in the company of others. You always manage to keep us and any visitors in stitches.

It mentioned his participation i ·n the Dixie Jazz Band and contained one of his poems about the band. Then he read from a 1981 edition of . the ·Asheville Times about the class's 50th reunion. Memories of the Jazz Band were still fresh as well as the fact that Leo was one of the lucky few to have a car back in those high school days. Our Sanctimonious Seven was well known about town even back in 1981. Next week Leo tells of "The Love Life of a Soldier in WWII". D~ - "U..L \..IIC" WTt:: 1 ' \J..I...t.JI..I..'-'• LION LEO'S HYSTERICAL MOMENTS consisted of two parts, one of which was--as usual--very funny. The other ~ndicated that within the past several days a lady at the Summit Retirement Center sang to the accompaniment o1 Leo's rendition on the piano of "How Much Is That Doggie i ~n The Window". When her husband commented to Lion Leo ~hat she had been through the years a wonderful musician; but this was the first time that he <her husband) had ~ heard her sing in years. Lion Leo stated that he is now 1 eternally grateful for his mother's having insisted on his practicing on the piano at least one hour per day I during his childhood. After that, Lion Leo stated that his lovely wife, }. Sylvia, suffering from Parkinson's told him that he, Leo, had an affair with a nurse and same was bruited about r among conversationalists and the media. But all of Leo's . sincere and painstaking efforts to ascertain the name of the nurse were to no avail. Tough luck, Lion Leo, but we I add our congratulations for having been so a·ccused.

It is presumed that his partner of the opposit~ sex may have had an answer. Considering all of the circumstances of being 3/4 of the circumference of the Earth away from home, it ia no wonder that Lion Leo and his cohorts kept singing the song with the refrain "I Wanna Go Home". ----···--I mo~ion passed.

As Lion Leo stated "It pays to be on / the good side of an army cook" . Nothing in Leo ' s , Hysterical Moments ever indicated that he or any of his buddies ever suffered from malnourishment. It seems--to ' say the least--that Smokey J oe was 3 good friend to have 1 and once told Lion Leo that he wanted to go home to see his wife and new baby. Lion Leo replied with the universal phrase "I just wanna go home". Lion PDG Jack Cole presented information as to the activities of the Sanctimonious Seven, our splendid band will be extended a special invitation to our annual PATRIOTIC PROGRAM, which will be featured at our June 28 meeting. Hopefully, the band will give mus~cal emphasis to Yours Tr uly ' s pro and con remarks pertinent to the status of PATRIOTISM IN OUR GREAT COUNTRY. The Band's last appearance was at Greentree Ridge Rest Home on Sweeten Creek Road where they were most cordially received and sincerely invited back. Members of the Band who were present: Leo, Beverly, Bill Anderson, "Red" Hoyle, John Matthews and Jack Cole.

We then were informed that the Sanctimonious Seven have now become the Sanctimonious Nine, all of whom are expert with their various musical instruments. On June 28, 1995, many of this group played patriotic tunes as requested by Ye Ed in conjunction with his annual Patriotic dissertation. All concerned were deeply grateful for this and other wonderful appearances by this great band.

Lion Leo's Hysterical Moments consisted of an explanation of some of the City of Asheville's water and sewer problems <where have we heard this expression before?) in 1922. Lion Leo, as always, had a tet•rific grasp of the amuiing lacts surrounding that situation. And he was kind e'nough to share them with us as we 11 as some physical problems that he was having at about the same time. Lion Leo had doctors one and two and Doctor two was very important to the patient; because he happened to have what Lion Leo t•efet•t• ed to as a "roto-rooter". At any rate, at whatever cost financially and from the standpoint of pain and suffering Leo snapped out of it and, as you know, was at today's meeting to show for it. Keep'em comin', Leo; we enjoy your Hysterical Moments as much as some enjoyed hearing about OJ's recent acquisition of a special commuting limousine that he guaranteed to deliver every customer with "time to kill."

Beaver, Editor Published by : The Center for Appalachian Studies AppaJachjan State University Boone, NC 28608 1997 �INTRODUCTION .... .c~c.j..,.~ l~' .Jol.A · Leo Finkelstein was born in Asheville, North Carolina in 1905, and in 191 I began school at the Montford Avenue Grammar School. He graduated from Asheville High School in 1922, where he was business manager of the Hillbilly, the school monthly magazine, as well as pianist for a musical group. From playing saxophone with the Asheville Shrine Club Maiching Band in the 1930s to piano with the Sanctimonious Seven for the Asheville Lion' s Club in the 1990s, Leo has served his community though music, humor, business acumen, and community leadership. In 1922 Leo took over management of Finkelstein's Pawnshop, a downtown Asheville institution, which Leo' s father Harry Finkelstein opened in 1903 shortly after immigrating from Lithuania. Since his retirement from Finkelstein' s in 1970, Leo has continued to be actively involved in the civic, fraternal, and religious life of the community. A member of the Asheville Lion' s Club for over sixty years, Leo has regaled his fellow Lions with his unique view oflife in Asheville and beyond. Inducted into the U.S. Army Air Corps in 1943, Leo was seen off at the bus by Lion C. Fred Brown, past president ofthe Asheville Lion' s Club and former Vice Mayor of Asheville, who advised Lejo to send letters back to the local Lion' s Club. Leo complied. What follows is his record of experiences and observations which were copied and sent back to the Asheville Lion' s Club, to be read at meetings during World War II. Following induction at Camp Croft, South Carolina, Leo endured Basic Training at Miami Beach, Florida, before being sent to Tishomingo, OkJahoma for training as an Air Force Clerk. His collected stories were recorded in a diary, given to him by Miss ~th Anderson, Leo's typing teacher at the Oklahoma College of Agriculture, where soldiers train~ to be clerks in the Air Force recei ..·ee iA&tA:IGtiett. The majority of the following stores, vignettes, and poems originated in the Philippines, where Leo served until4he final days of the war. �MY LIFE IN THE SERVICE rhe Diaxy of Leo Finkelstein 109 Lakeshore Drive Asheville, North Carolina SERVICE RECORD Transfers Spartanburg, SC Columbia , SC Miami Beach, FL Tishomingo, OK Kearns, Utah Pittsburg , CA Camp Croft Camp Jackson 414 Training Group Murray State College 501 Training Group Camp Stoneman Induction Reception Basic Training A.A.F.T.T.C.

I have learned six new cuss words (especially) for top Master Sergeants , how to use an electric potato peeling machine , how to go to Miami without a pass, how to stand at attention (while half asleep), how to shine my shoes with the minimum amount of energy. I have been told that I will be shot if I go AWOL or fall asleep on guard duty and will get half- shot if I drink too much whiskey (like I didn ' t know). I have had so many instructions on making beds , cleaning out toilet bowls and other domestic duties that I think I would make a better wife than a soldier. I have been taught to jump off of nine foot fences on the obstacle course and if I refused to do it - I would be locked up here. If I did things like that at home - I would be locked up there. I have been taught that if a pretty girl walks by- I c an look, think and wish, but I'm not allowed to talk or whistle at her. I have been taught to stand at attention and not move while a fly does calisthenics on my nose. This is the army Air Force. ~ From Tishomingo, Oklahoma Tishominqo was an Indian Chief who died here in the early part of the nineteenth century and t~is place has been dead ever since. This is the spot where the capitol of some Indian tribe was situated and today it is a spot where 500 soldiers are studying to be technicians in the Air Corps and at the same time improving their technique with the co-eds on the campus of this colle ge. *'***•********** �nn. ~t /\\ / / IV -~ \ My mail has been so light lately, I'm getting to t hink my BOis reaching all the way back to Asheville. --***** **'* **-lf**~~t Something happe ned to the water works in Tishomingo and the Army Officers found that the water wasn't pure so none of the soldiers can go into town until the town government gets the water works fixed. T can't imagine soldiers going to town to drink water but I guess some of t he officials are scared one of them will get drunk and take a bath in i t . .......... .... .. .......... Refore the war T thought being i n the army woul d be a thrilling adventure - but now I know Sherman was right . I Before the war I thought the Air Corps was a mechanized force - but now wonder what the Hell I 'm marching for. Before the war, I thought floors we r e to walk on - but now I 've found they are to sweep and mop on. Before the war, I thought the Asheville-Citizen was a rotten newspaper but now I enjoy reading one four days old. Before the war, I would drink a cocktail before dinner - but now I drink milk with my dinner . Before t he war, I would go to bed sometimes at 4 AM - but now I get up at 4 AM. Before the wa r, I was particular about what girl T took out - but now I'm not so particular. Before the war , I struggled over a golf course - but now I struggle over an obstacle course. Before t he war, T u sed to shine at a dance - but now I shine my shoes . Before the war, I cussed at a golf ball - but now a sergeant cusses at me because I'm not on the ball . Before the war, I didn ' t have much r eligion- but now I pray for a furlough . ****** .. *****•** In the Army you are always in a hurry to get somewhere so you ' ll have more time to wait after you get there. The obstacle course is so tough here that they take us on a nine mile hike to get limbered up so we can make it . ******"*****"**** A I reached the height of my social career in Tishomingo yesterday when my typing teacher , Miss Anderson, invited me to have dinner with her at the Payne Hotel in the heart of Tishomingo . Miss Anderson is not only the best looking lady teacher on the campus , but a nice person to t~lk to and get all the information about the r eligi ous, social, f r aternal, and political life in ~rmy �6 this county . I arrived at the Payne Hotel exactly on time - for who am I to keep a lady wait ing who invites me out to dinner and pays t he check. My first view of the interior of the hotel was depressing and to be conservative and brief with my description of this institution (founded in the stage coach days) is that it was a pain. Nevertheless, my companion was nice and the kindly smiles of an understanding teacher to a lonesome soldier helped greatly to make my evening a success. W entered the dining room with a great deal of precision and grace, e dodging some water that was leaking from the second floor through the ceiling and dripping on the dining room floor. Part of the plaster had already fallen from the ceiling and I felt surely the balance would come down at any minute. The dining room was also being u sed for a linen supply room and lumber s torao~ room. During our meal a lady would bring in dirty linen, pile it on the floor, and carry c l ean linen out. I never could figure out why all the l umber was stacked in the corner and was afraid to ask. After dinner my teacher took me for a personally conducted tour through the darkened, dirty and low-ceilinged halls to room #35 (where she lives) and behold - there T visualized her p ride and joy, a private bathroom - the only one in Tag Hotel . To be continued ... This place is thirty mi les from a telegraph office and so far from civilization that one gets awful lonesome at times. In fact o ne soldier got so lonesome that he got married on the telephone last night . This is a dry place, both in climate and drinking alcohol. It seems that Tishomingo is so dry that even the bootleggers don't sell it. ***•*********** They believe in getting married young here and I haven ' t found a single girl over 22 years of age, so I haven ' t found a suitable lady my age to take out. Would take some of the younger ones out but their papas keep shotguns and they know how to shoot straigh t out West. Many times jn my lifetime I have heard about people seeing snakes , especially at moments when more spirits were absorbed than the system could stand. This county here is very dry. In view of this fact I realized that I had not had a drink during the time I had been here - so it wasn ' t whiskey . Therefore i t must be a live snake and there it was on the barrack's floor crawling and wiggling and sticking its tongue out at me. That is not the only type pet that is found in our barracks. Just last week we discovered a couple of live frogs and now and then a stray dog will walk in to look us over . At night we are blessed with some miniature bombers to help put us to sleep. These extra large bugs are supposed to be June bugs but I know bugs couldn't grow that large in the one month of June. They gain a lot of �8 Today we we~e given a demonstration of war gases. I was told to put on my gas mask and was placed in a chamber filled with tear gas. Everything was lovely until I was instructed to t a ke the mask off and breathe the stuff which I did very reluctantly. My eyes burned , my nose burned, my throat burned and I cried and c ried and c~ied so they let me out into the fresh air . After partially r ecovering , I was informed t hat I would be s ubjected to several other popular brands of gasses and all I had to do was sniff each one (li ke a hound dog sniffs at a rabbit track) and associate the smell with something I had s melled i n civilian life. Thi s was easy and my a n alysis was as follows : Chlora-Pic knon gas smelled like corn whiskey . Phosgene gas s me lled like scotch whiskey . Chlori ne gas smelled like rye whi s key. Mustard gas s melled like bourbon whis key . Hydrogen- mustard gas smelled like otdinary coo ki ng whiskey. ****** ********* This camp is a c ross section between a conce n t ~ation camp and t h e Buncombe County c h ain gang.

We are not troubled with rats here - they can ' t live in this climate . I went to Bunny's Beer Garden l.ast night and stayed to 5 AM a nd took Bunny home . Bunny's husband is in the Navy . t tried to be faithful to t he Air Corps , but I couldn ' t find an aviator's wife who owned a beer garden. ****•***+'*+ ** ** Below is a schedule of how I s p e nt a w~ekend here: W aiti n g in line to get a pass Waiting in line to get a bus to town Waiting in line to let an MP check your pass Waiting in line to use phone to call q irl Waiting to get taxi to go after gi rl Waiting in line to get permit to buy a pint of whiskey W aitinq in line to buy whiskey Waiting in line to qet seat i n restaurant W aiting for waitr:-e!'ls to bring gin ger ale and i ce Waiting in lin e for street car to t ake girl home aiting fo r girl to make up her mind (to kiss me good-night) W Walking to bus station Explaining to 1st sergeant why 1 was 1ate getting back to c amp Resting up from Satu rday night's activities 30 min . 43 min. 9 min. 10 min . 52 min . 28 min . 27 min . 40 min . 12 min. 11 min . 02 min. 13 min. 5 min . All day Sunday The worst food in the Army Air Forces is served in the mess halls of Kearns Field, Utah. A soldier here was getti n g something to eat out of a �9 garbage can today and a Lieutenant nearby said, "Here you! Do you think you are better than the rest of the men on this field - get on in the mess hall and eat!" *************** I've had details on this post from the telephone operator on the firing range to the office boy in the Commanding Officer's office, but my most interesting detail was handed to me today when I was made "Garbage Man" for the Mess Hall. Now don't think that a garbage man ' s job is just an ordinary bit of work. To the contrary, i t takes a man who can stand gruesome odors and one who has specialized knowledge of slop and other varieties of waste. Neatly lined up outside of the kitchen of the Mess Hall are thirty-six GI garbage cans. My main duty was to see that the right stuff was put in the right can. There were certain cans designated for wet garbage, dry garbage, vegetable peelings, fruit peelings, egg shells, coffee grounds, bones, ashes and trash : You must be careful not to put coffee grounds in the slop as i t will kill the hogs. Tea leaves will make hogs very sick and if there is any broken glass in i t - it won ' t do the hogs any good. I was quite proud of myself when the K.P. Sergeant complimented me on my work. The onl y thing that worried me was that I was doing all this for the benefit of hogs and pigs. Recently deodorized, Leo I was told that every good soldier should know how to do his own laundry, so I decide that I • m going to do some wash.ing for myself. I tried to find out the best method for washing clothes but it seemed liked very soldier had a different system : After much cal cul ation and thought I start on what I think to be the correct procedure. The first thing I do is steal a bucket from the Mess Hall. Then I go to the PX and buy a box of Rinso and a bottle of Clorox. I put half the box of Rinso and half the bottle of Clorox in the bucket f illed wi th hot water and p l ace my underwear and socks therein . The directions on the box said to soak for one hour but in o r der to do a good job I figured I would put the bucket of clothes under my bed for a day or two. Everything was coming along fine until the Lieutenant came through the barracks on an inspecti on tour and saw the bucket of c l othes under my bed. I couldn ' t explain how the bucket got out of the Mess Hall or why I was doing my laundry during duty hours. The next thing I knew - I was restricted to the Post for a week. Nothing was going to stop me so I started to wash the c l othes . I found that the dye had run out of the socks and had got in the underwear and I couldn't get the dye out of the underwear or back in the socks. Therefore, I went up to t he Supply Sergeant and signed a statement of charges and got mysel f some new underwear and socks. Now I'm all washed up trying to wash my own washing. *************** rrom Ca~~p Ston..aan, CA I can't tell you where I ' m at because the censor wouldn't like it. I can't tell you what kind of clothes I've been issued because you would �10 know where I was going. I can't tell you about ~he camp because i ~s aga ins~ ~he rules . I can't tell you about my equipment because it would jeopardize my security. I can tell you this though - I had a date with a girl by the name of Sylvia who used ~o live in Chicago, who is now living in Los Angeles and who is visiting some friends in a city near here and she is just as sweet as ever. *************** The PX here reminds me of a country store with a night club atmosphere . You can buy anythi ng from beer to buttons with pret~y littl e teen-age girls to serve you. At very reasonable prices you can have coffee, doughnuts, cakes, sandwiches, drinks or ice cream, a gift for mother, a souvenir for sister, a can of shoe polish, a bottle of ink, a bath towel or your favorite pipe tobacco : A nickelodeon bell ows forth music in one corner whi le a group of soldiers are singing favorite songs in another. A Lieutenant-Colonel walks in without a neck tie. A captain is talking to a private in a friendly manner . A sergeant is conversing with a smiling WAC. Here is the common meeting ground of our f i ghting men and women - a last gathering place on ~heir nati ve soil . Soon we will be bound for strange lands and new assignments. *************** Pre. Boat on Paei.~ic oa.an Here I am on a boat on the Pacific Ocean. While I don't have the accommodations of a Cook's tour, I can see the same scenery that many people pay thousands of dollars to see (ocean and sky). The sleeping quarters are a little crowded and the bunks are so close to each other that many times I wake up with another guy's foot in my face or his knee in my stomach. The latrine is also a little crowded. Traffic is so heavy inside (if you can get in ) that it would make a New York traffic cop crazy trying to keep things st~aight. If you ever have to go, you got to go about an hour before you think you got to go so you will get there in time to go - then it takes about twenty minutes to get from where you go to the wash basin . Believe me, Firestone, if I could go out to your cabin for a month and have the privy at my disposal and that creek with fresh mountain water to do my laundry in - I'd be the happiest man in the world . *************** Here I am on an island in the South Pacific with nothing to write about. I can't write about the weather , I can't say whether it's hot or cold, rainy or dry. I can't tell the name of the island or the name of any towns near here or even if there are any towns on the island. I can't tell you if the country has mountains or plains or desert lands. I c a n't even tell you the col or of the soil, I can't tell you about the animal life, the birds; the fish or the insects . I can't tell you if the natives are white or black or yellow. I can ' t tell you what language the y speak or what country owns the island. I can't tell you if we are near an ocean, a river or a lake. I can't tel l you about the military personnel or equipment : I can't tell you about my duties . I can't tell you anything that would demoralize the civilians back home - so I'll close. �I want to tell you a story about a farmer's daughter on an island in the south Pacific . While out walking yesterday I stopped at the farmer's house and bought some cake and pie from the farmer's daughter. I asked her about some music and she brought out an ant~que model Victrola with some records. I thought I would hear some music with a South Pacific rhythm but instead it was some good old North Carolina mountain music played by a hillbilly band. Something always happens to remind me of home - damn it. J'roa Gu.clac•nel Mosquitos are big here. One lit in the runway and they put seventy gallons of gas in it before they found out it wasn't a P-38. *************** Back home it was said that money isn't everything in life. over here it might be said that money isn't anything in life. There is no place to spend it and nothing to buy. A free movie at night is the height of our entertainment. A bottle of beer once a week is the extent of our drinking. We look forward to mail call and chow. Mail from home is our greatest morale booster. On the walls of our living quarters are the pictures of a girl back home, a favorite movie star or maybe a scantly clad native girl. We see strange animals, lizards, and insects and often wonder why they like to crawl in bed with us. We search the region for souvenirs left by the Japs. We are visited by natives who wear a towel where their pants ought to be. We work hard, eat plenty and sleep well. There is no complaining here - we are just one big happy family. We have moved into our new wigwam known as "The Southside Social and Society Club, South Pacific Branch, Incorporated." Believe me it is a masterful piece of architecture in solid mahogany. Our foundation is made of empty gasoline barrels. our roof is made of empty bomb box tins. We got our lumber from an old torn down latrine. We did steal a few good boards after dark when nobody was looking. Our light sockets are home made out of airplane parts . We also have various pieces of antique furniture made out of shipping boxes picked up at the mess hall. We have a front porch. Our roof don't leak (very much). The entire frame-work of our house is covered with mosquito netting and at a distance the shack appears to be a huge bird cage with monkeys running around in it. Anyhow its home and it is good to know that we again have a place to call our own. *************** "Spot is a dog - a white dog with one black spot over his right eye. Spot is the mascot of a certain crew who maintained a certain airplane at a certain field in the South Pacific. Spot knew 'his' airplane - the airplane his crew worked on. Spot would ride out on the bus to the field every morning and would jump off at the bunker on which his airplane was parked. He knew the location of his plane just like a civilian dog would know the location of its home. He stayed by his a.irplane in all kinds of weather and admired the splendid way his crew kept the ship in shape. Not long ago the airplane didn't return from a flight therefore the crew didn't go out to the field. Spot would ride out to the field on the bus as usual every morning and would jump off at the bunker that had held his plane. For many days that followed I could see Spot standing there, a l one, on the empty bunker, waiting for his airplane to come home. *************** �12 I discovered a new animal today. It was a lizard, four feet long , running around in my front yard . The reptile looked like an alligator but it didn ' t have the same disposition . It was supposed to be harmless but he didn ' t look very sociable to me. His skin looked like it would make a good traveling bag but since I wasn't going anywhere , I didn ' t try to capture the thing. He finally ran down in my fox hole and I am hopin g , in the event I have to use that fox hole some night, that he won ' t be there with a wife and family. Anyhow, I am looking forward to the time when I can get home, where there is nothing to bother me but house flies , bumble bees and ants . *************** This is a dehydrated war . our breakfast is made at the mess hall with a powder: they mix with water. 0ut of this mixture comes hot cakes , pan cakes, flat-jacks and wheat cakes and t hey all taste alike . One gallon of dehydrated potato powder is mixed with water and out comes five gallons of mashed potatoes without mashing them. The dehydrated eggs at the mess hall have a sign on them reading " eggs" because they don ' t look like eggs or taste like eggs. The dehydrated milk turns out to be dark grey a nd putting i t in the dehydrated coffee keeps you from getting an infection from the stuff . The dehydrated lemonade could be used for battery acid but we use it mostly for washing our mess kits. If somebody would only invent dehydrated whiskey - that would be a great a contribution to the war effort. Our mail is even dehydrated into V-mail. Yes, everything is dehydrated around here except the weather . I am now a politician. of his tribe. I was the cause of a native being made " chief " This is how it happened. A certain native I called "Joe" would come over to my shack to visit me and even though he taiked very ~ittle English, I found out from him much about his life and the customs of his people . These poor devils work for ten cents a day. They sign up for a year and are paid in full at the end of their contract. Joe always admired a larqe knife that I had . This knife was sent to me from home, being one that I had jn my collection, hanging on the wall of my bar room. Every time I showed it to Joe a big smile would come over his face , his snow white teeth would shine like pearls, his eyes gleamed with fire and he would say over and over, " Nice, I like. Nice, I like! " He would carefully caress the etched figure of a lion on the blade and would gaze for minutes at his image on the shiny steeL One day Joe came over to see me . He had five American dollar bills wra pped in an old cloth bag. He offered me the five dollars and his war club for my knife. f traded wi t h h im and he left my shack the happiest man I've ever looked upon. I followed him over to the native village and there the whole tribe gathered around and made him chief because of his ability to acquire such a wonderful knife. Never would I have thought, when I nailed that knife to the wal l of my bar at home, that someday it wou ld be the cause of a man being made chief of a native tribe on an island in the South Pacific. *************** There are no sheets, no mattresses, no pillows, no springs on my cot but when I ~. ay down to go to sleep I acquire a feeling of comfort and contentment . Sometimes I gaze at the stars shining in the t ropical heavens . Other times I listen to the rain beating down on the tin roof . There are no pains , no nerves, no responsibilities , no vain regrets, no anticipation of gathering difficulties, no financial probJems to di·sturb my hard earned slumber. I wake up in the morning and look at the mountains around me. Their lofty peaks �13 me of the mountains at h ome . Th is is a wo nderfu l place to lead a n easy ci f c but frankly I would not hesitate to accept a n y opportun ity to go back to my civilian life once again . ·:e.~nd ********'*** **** Parts of this a r ea are cov ered wi th ;ungle vegetation. Enormous tree trunks covered with s nake like vines , stran ge flowers and inhabited by screeching parrots tower above the semisolid mass of bamboo , palms , ferns , writhing roots , creepi ng l izards a nd t housands of energetic grasshoppers . There are hellgrammites and s piders to be had on the island but personally I could do well without t hem, especially after seei n g t he effects of their bites. *********"" ••••* Letters , letters , letters - that ' s t he only way I have to kee p in touch with the old country (the United States) and what a problem! Lette r s to my mother must be dignified and cheerful. Letters to my f r aternal brothers, the police department and some of the girls I used to go with don ' t have to b e so dignified. Letters to the Lions Club must be interesting and to the point. Letters to my attorney, accountant , and manager should eKpress my appreciation for their faithful services even though I ' m wonder ing if t hey a re o n the job . In my letters to my Rabbi , I try to be rel igious . In my lette rs to my social club, I try to be a beer drinker and an expert ca rd player . Letters to my best girl must be affection ate even t hough I t h i n k she is going out with a couple of sergeants. In my letters to my banker I am optimistic , cautious and hopeful . In all my letters I can ' t say anything that would demoralize the people at home because I know they are having a tough time with ration points , wh iskey shortages, War Bond Drives and taKes . Finally, T have to please the censor but he has an advantage over you - he can cut out what h e don't like . Foxes don ' t live in a fox hole. It ' s a place we run in, crawl in, fall in, sl ide in, scramble in o r jump in in event of an air raid. Mack and T got orders to fill in an old one by our shack . Mack is lazy as Hell and since I was getting up in years we decided to get a couple of natives to do the job . Mack went over to the native village a nd negotiated for the job, usi ng two bucks of mine for payment, which T furnished very reluctantly. W hen the natives started to fill the hole with dirt , a snake , five feet long , ran out . Mack, being a country boy, picked up the snake by its tail and Powers (a butcher in civilian life) , chopped his head off with an axe before I stopped running. The neKt thing to come out was a ground rat. One of the natives caught him with his bare hands and killed it before I could stop run ning . The next thir.gs to come out were four centipedes about a foot long apiece. One bite from one of these huge worms and you run for the dispensary as fast as you ca n, cussing your draft board ail along the way with words unfit to write. The fox hole is now filled up so guess I'll take a nap because I'm tired out from runnJ.ng. •+ ............ ....., .... .., ... . From Los Neqros-Admdralty Islands Prior to my induction i~ the army I considered myself a respectable upright citizen of Buncombe County , North Carolina . I was always honest except for a few times during my childhood days when I swiped onions from Mrs . Roberts ' garden, stole an apple from Mr. Book ' s grocery store and helped myself to all the cherries I could eat from a n eighbor's cherry tree . My ch~ldhood habits started again the other day when I volunteered (by �14 request) to help unload several barges of beer. Even though our secret weapons are not guarded , each barge of beer has armed guards. I found that if I accidentally dropped a case of beer that sometimes several bottles would fall out and in gathering up these bottles sometimes they accidentally got inside my shirt and as long as they were inside my shirt , I didn ' t see any reason not to drink them . Do you think I ' ll go to Hell for this? ********** * **** On this beautiful (to some people) island in the Adrniralt¥ Group one can sit under a swaying palm tree (until a coconut falls and bounces off your head) and admire the sun- kissed shores (through sun glasses to keep from going blind). You may breathe deeply of the fresh air (saturated with the smell of st3gnant salt water) and gaze at the moon (providing you can see t h rough ¥OUr mosquito net). In the daytime you can enjoy the cool refres h ing rains (if you don't mind getting as wet as a drowned r at) . In the evenin gs i t ' s your privilege to see a new movie featuring William s . Hart or Fatty Arbuckle and go back to your tent knowing you will have a good night ' s sleep (providing you take sleeping pills) . It is thrilling to search the jungle for souvenirs (if you don ' t mind picking up booby traps). If you get the tooth ache you can go to the dentist . If you don ' t feel like working you can go on sick call . If you get homesick you can go see the chaplain. This is an ideal place to be . Every morning at breakfast time I am greeted by " Porkie. " He is a little pig and a cute little pig at that . He could be part dog because he looks up at me and wags his tail. He could be part wild boar because he pushes me around with h is nose . Anyhow in this G·o dforsaken country I welcome most any kind of a friend and believe me Porkie is my friend because he will let me pet him and feed him . Nobody knows where Porkie carne from . Maybe the Japs left him here or maybe he wandered down into the camp from the hills. There have been some suggestions about killing Porkie and roasting h im over a fire but I don ' t think there is any danger of that happening because we can ' t eat Porkie and have him too . ***"~~"**'********• Sometime ago while I was on a troop transport a warning came over the loud speaker than a Jap battleship and two destroyers had been sighted . I was playing checkers , some other guys were playing cards , some reading . You could hear a number of wise cracks about the situation but nobody seemed to be disturbed . We were all in the same boat and i t appeared that regardless of our religious beliefs, political opinions , social or financial standings in civilian life, that being in the same boat under these conditions united us in the closest bonds of fellowsh ip . True this war has made soldiers of us but in (doing so it has not destroyed that individuality, humor and tolerance we possessed . In my opinion it has cemented firmer in us these necessities of a peaceful democratic society . (Adapted from an instruction booklet) Suppose you got lost in the jungle . You would have nothing to worry about as far as food is concerned . You may eat , with safety, anything that the monkeys eat and you can even eat the monkeys. They are considered a delicacy by the natives. �15 More than likely you would start your day off with a breakfast of grasshoppers. The legs and wings pulled off , toasted on the end of a stick or fried in coconut oil, they are not at all displeasing to the taste. Of course if you dcn't like grasshoppers you could eat winged ants , or termites particularly the queens and the eggs of ants . For dinner I would suggest roasted rat smothered with lizard tails . Rats are plentiful and have a taste similar to large fruit bats. Lizards are also plentiful and the meat from the hindquarters is preferred. A nice seaweed salad would be appropriate. Strangely enough seaweeds are not very salty and their water content is fairly fresh. In general, the pink, purple and the reddish or green seaweeds are best. For dessert I would recommend water lilies with chopped white grub worms. Supper should be your biggest meal. You could start out with snake meat sliced li ke bologna, wild sweet potato chips and fern tips. All s nakes are aood to eat - even the poisonous ones , if the head is cut off immediately after capture . Your soup could be turtle soup season ed with bamboo shoots and the buds of palm trees . A salad of bananas and figs would go good i f you could find some. Your main course may be porcupine stew or broiled kangaroo steaks with hard boiled bird eggs on the side. Seriously speaking all the items I have mentioned in this letter are edible and you don't need any ration points to get them. Was just thinking what i t would be like to have an Asheville Social Club here. To begin with you wouldn't have a modern building like the one at home. It would be a frame building covered with n etting or straw. The structur e wouldn ' t need a heating plant because we have an abundance of that here. You wouldn ' t be able to sell beer. The members would have to drink chlorinated river water and like it . The poker players wouldn't be able to concentrate on their hands as the roar of airplanes overhead would disturb them. You wouldn't be able to call a taxi to go home. You would have to wa lk - maybe in some pretty deep mud. You couldn't hold a dance as there are no women to dance with . The rummy players would have to be satisfied with old dilapidated cards as new ones are rare. The trustees would hav~ no worries since there is no place to spend any money. There would be one advantage of havi ng the Club here - you guys wouldn't have your wives calling you up at 1 AM to come home. *************** I got caught with my pants down. I went into the latrine this morning to enjoy a good smoke and to read the funnies. Gracefully, I made myself as comfortable as possible on the GI equipment therein, relaxing and watching the flies , red ants, and lizards playing football , follow-the-leader , and other games on the rafters and walls . Suddenly, I noticed a spider sitting right beside me - not an ordinary one with wire size legs , but one whose size reminded me of the lobsters I used to eat at home, and whose legs reminded me of those of Gloria Swanson . The gruesome and monstrous creature crawled slowly toward me and J. had no trouble doing my duty - it scared it out of me. In order that you might become acquainted with my dai ly routine here , I am listing activities below: 6 AM Wake up. Complain about the heat. Shake my shoes to see if any centipedes are parked inside .

Can ' t imagine why he is singing so early i n the morning. I soon find out the reason - he made Staff Sergeant on a new rating list . Sgt .

The subjects under discussion will be omitted for the benefit of any person under eight years of age who might read this. In this area we have the Army Air Forces and the United States Navy. I am in the Army Air Forces and my old friend , Harry Murdock, former assistant circulation manager of the Asheville Times, is in the Navy. Now, we see each other often , and in order to show how much the Navy will cooperate with the Army , Harry agreed to procure for me an item that the Navy has and the Army has not. (The method of obtai n i ng this item will not be revealed at t his time . ) I had not looked upon one of these luxuries for nine m onths and when he brought it to me, it was too delightful to d~scribe - too wonderful to believe . It was more welcome than an umbrella in t he rain, an ice cold drink on a hot day or a fur coat by a chorus girl. There wa s never such beauty in the mountains of western North Carolina at autumn time - no such glamour in a sunset on the ocean or a bathing beauty content. It was more invigorating than a scotch and soda or a banana split. Never before had I bestowed upon me such a gift and now when I go to sleep on that second hand "Navy issue " mattress , I ' ll dream of days to come when I can be home again . **************• Dear Mom: When I try to eat this GI food, T think of how I ate at home - it ' s then I think of you dear mom.

M fondest y memories are of the c h ildren around town who called me "Uncle Leo.

I think of the n ight that I , a bachelor, presided at a Father and Son Banquet at Congregation Be th-HaTephila . I think very little of the materialistic things I left behind. I realize now that the important things in my lifetime - the things that mean the most to me now were just little things , j u st everyday happenings. •****""********* Corporal Mark is a great g u y and that is why t like to do a favor fo r him if I can . Well, I am the guy who makes up the de t ail list and Corporal Mark requested that I put hi.m on the roving guard detail. Now, a r oving guard has a comparatively easy job . He gets a jeep , rides around all night and sees that no one steals one of our heavy bombers (weight 60 , 000 pounds). Corporal Mark is very efficient in his guarding because he goes beyond the usual call of duty and guards, not only the bombers , but the mess hall and other places where food and supplies are stored. Corporal Mark is very successful in �19 obtaining various types of edibles while on guard duty and during the early morning hours h e and I devour this food wi t h a great deal of pleasure and satisfaction to our always hungry stomachs. Now Corporal Mark is an upright and honest fellow and T think he was getting the idea that we weren ' t justly e n titled to the extra stuff to eat . That idea soon vanished because I told him about the amount of taxes the government was hitting me for while I was over here fighting for world peace so we decided that we could go on procuring this nourishment without hesitation and with a clean conscience. ** * ************ From Waltda , New Guinea I Wanna Go Home Here T ~m ~n enli~ted man , Getting along the best I can, The officers h ave stea k while I eat Spam, I wanna go home.

I assure you it was less trouble for me to get that airplan e than it would be for you to kiss a bride at a wedding . I climbed up in the pilot ' s cockpit while Sergeant Reville hooked his eletrac to the nose wheel of the plane . Now Sergeant Reville can pull these 60 , 000 pound monsters around the field with his eletrac just like a baby pulls a wagon around the living room and knocks over all the furniture only Sergeant Reville never knocks anything over . He pulled me and the airplane down the taxi strip to our area where I stopped the gasoline truck and said, " Hey Corporal , fill her up . I think she will take about 3000 gallons. " As he was filling it up I recalled the time when I was home on my furlough and needed a little extra gasoline to drive my girl up to my favorite parking place on Beaucatcher Mounta in and return home (at a decent hour - of course) . Well, I went to the rationing board and they would only give me five gallons - the stingy devils. Wish they could see me now getting 3100 gallons. The only trouble over here is that I got no automobile and no girl to drive up a mountain. ******* .................. . Thousands of Japs had landed , �20 Near the land of the rising sun , On an island in the Pacific , They had nowhere else to run . Now on this tiny island, A good size town was found , The Japs - they took it over, And wandered all around. Our bombers got their orders, And took off on the mission, To save the town if possible, And bomb the Jap position. One bombardier was fearless, And always on the ball, This flight he made a grave mistake , ith no excuse at all . W He aimed right at the target, He carefully fjxed his sight, He missed the Jap position, Hit a house with a big red light. Now when we take that island, And give the Japs a trimmin ', W 'll still be cussin ' the bombardier, e Who blew up all the women . ************** It all started when I received one of Finkelstein's $7;95 rebuilt watches. A guy offered me an old radio and twenty- five dollars in cash for it and I traded . Money is almost useless over here but I managed to give the twenty-five dollars to another guy who gave me a half gallon of home-made drinking beverage wh ich I think was made out of fe~ented canned corn and 100 octane gasoline. I pooled my half-gallon of imitation "Carolina corn " with a fellow who had a case of beer and we proceeded to drink it all up but he passed out before we finished and I had ten cans of beer left on my hands as my share of t h e party . I traded the beer for a pipe , ten packages of tobacco , a pocket knife and a fountain pen. I traded the knife for a flashlig ht and three cans of beans. I ate the three cans of beans and traded the fountain pen for an electric light socket , a cigarette lighter and two dollars. I invested the t wo dollars i n a crap game, won eight dollars, took the proceeds and bought a radio tube to fix my radio. I traded the radio for a boat which later sank. I traded three packages of tobacco for four cigars and three air mail stamps . I smoked the cigars and used the three air mail stamps to write to three friends back i n t he States requesting from each a box of food. Now, when and if I receive these boxes of food , I will be able to render to you a complete financial statement as to how I came out on the watch. ******* * *•***** Here in the jungle we don ' t have houses fo r house flies to live i n but we do have house flies . These flies look like the flies at home ~who have survived the fly swatter , but they don't lead the same kind of life. They follow us wherever we go but they don't follow us to the mess hall because they don't like the Gl food t he mess sergeant slings at us no more than we do. Once in awhile, if a fly gets about half starved, he will fly around the mess hall looking for something to eat . They are persistent devils and they won ' t ~ �21 be shoo'd away like the American flies. Quring din ner one made eighteen dives at my mess kit before I got him. Many of these brave flies , who dare eat our food, just turn over on their backs after the first bite , kick their legs up in the air and die. It ' s a rough war- even for flies . The war seems to be getting longer every day. *************** From Noamfoor Starvin ' Marvin's real name is Sgt . Marvin Binion but we call him Starvin ' Marvin because he never gets enough to eat. In fact none of us get enough to eat - only he complains about it more than we do. Now Starvin' Marvin has given everybody in our tent a name . Luke the Droop is really Sgt. Lueck, chief engineering clerk. Ed the Red is a crew chief on an airplane. Herman the German is chief clerk in Tech Supply and Leo the Hero is nobody else but me, an ordinary clerk who is fed up with the setup. Luke the Droop has been overseas thirty months and expects to go back to the States on the "Rotation Plan" only i t hasn't rotated far enough to reach him yet. on this account he is very cautious during air raids because he figures he is going home soon and he wants to get there in good shape . One night Hoim the Woim (which is a short name for Herman the German) woke us up yelling "Air Raid. " Luke the Droop was dressed and in a fox hole before any of us got out of bed. By the time I put on my shoes and grabbed my clothes everybody was gone including Ed the Red who moves very slowly especially when it comes to doing any work on his airplane. I wandered out of the tent , the moon was shining brightly and everything seemed peaceful to me . It wasn ' t peaceful long and I beat five guys to a jeep and crawled under it. It was my first air raid experience and now I imagine I ' l l be know as " Foxhole Finkelstein" instead of Leo the Hero . ************** ... Written from Morotai My Helmet My helmet is a useful thing , To wear upon my head, It's made of good materials , And feels almost like lead . My helmet makes a wash bowl, I can use it any place , I fill it up with water, And wash my hands and face. My fox hole roof is awful low, I can ' t stand up in there, So I put my helmet on the floor , And use i t for a chair . Now if I want a ba5ket, To hang down from my bunk, �22 It sure does make a lovely thing, To hold all kinds of junk. Now if I ' m sentimental , For flowers and that rot , I fill it up with good old dirt, ~nd I got a flowe r pot. Now if I want to take a nap, Beneath a weeping willow, I place it down upon the ground , And U5e i t tor a pillow. No w when I ligh t a candle , need a candlestick , I tur n the helmet upsid e down, It always does t h e t r ick . ~d Now when my socks get di r ty , the odor isn ' t right , I fill the thing with soapy water, ~nd let them soak all njght . ~d Now hard boiled eggs are something , I always did admire, So I fill the helmet full of water , ~nd put them on the fire. Now when we had a dim out, There ' s no use to be afraid , I put the helmet on the light , And use i t for a shade . Now when this war is over, (I ' ve often heard it said) , The helmet ' ll be a useful thing , To keep beneath the bed. finis ***********•*** Littl e Wacs Real cute They want Parachute.

Nevertheless , the job can be done without exerting too much effort if t he following di r ections are complied with: Never try to sit in the helmet. P1ace it o n a corne r p o l e o f a tent a nd stand beside it . Buckle the c h in strap and let i t h a ng down like a flower basket. rill t he helmet full of water . Get the water i n a legitimate manner if you can, otherwise steal it from the mess hall or the officer ' ~ showers there is ~J ways plenty there . Place a copy of you r home town n e wspaper on the ground (the Sunday edition is best because i t has more pages and makes a softer bath mat) . Take a cake of soap and using the water in the helmet lather up from feet to head or head to feet - it don't make no difference. Before the soap drjes , fill the helmet with fresh water and pour ove r top of head. This is repeated until all the soap is washed off. If the water is too cold , there is nothing you can do about it . Dry with a towel either clean or dirty. Shake all a nts and bugs out of towel before using. In the event of an air ra1d during the p r ocess of taking the bath , go to your fox hol e at o nce. ALter the " all clear" start all over from the beginni ng. �24 ************ .. ** A j ungle snake, on Guadalcanal , Went crawling over , To see his gal. He found his gal, Did not feel fit , She had a cold, That wouldn't quit. And every time, That she would cough , The jungle snake , Would get hissed off . Master Sergeant Johnson and I started the evening off by opening a can of salmon a nd ended up by opening a gold mine or at least we planned to open o n e after the war. Sergeant Johnson, after looki ng at the label on t he above mentioned salmon can, told me that he was once foreman of the cannery in Alaska that canned this particular can of salmon. He insisted on telling me about the different species of salmon , the white salmon , the pink salmon and I forgot the other colors he mentioned. Anyway I wasn ' t i nterested in the colors of salmon in Alaska because I was hungry and the only salmon I was i nterested in at that particular time was the salmon in the can . In order to be sure we wouldn ' t get poisoned by the salmon, we took several shots of Jungle Juice before and after eating the fish . For you r information Jungle Juice is made of 190 proof medical alcohol, colored and flavored with burnt sugar and diluted w.itl'l a small quantity of water. Jungle Juice seems to build up conversation and the conversation drifted all around Alaska. We finally got on the subject of gold and gold mi nes. According to what Sgt. Johnson said , he had done a goodly amoun t of gold hunting in Alaska and was well versed in mineralogy . We figured we could buy a seaplane after the war from the Navy at a fraction of the original cost , fly to Alaska, land on the many i naccessible lakes , pan their shores for gold and get rich quick (if the income tax man don ' t find us) . I have written all my friends back horne offering to sell them stock in the Finkelstein- Johnson Expedition to Alaska. Smoky Joe's horne is just a little bit south of Asheville, North carolina. He is one of the cooks down at our Mess Hall, a good guy, and a GI who can sympathize with all the other G.Is who have to eat the food he prepares. Before the war Smoky Joe owned a Load house on the highway going south from Asheville, and, after talking with him I found that I had patronized his institution on numerous occasions during my younger years . Since we were practically neighbors in eivilia n life 1 we felt that we should eontinue over here as good neighbors and so we are . There is no better friend in the Army than a cook because when you get hungry - he is the only man who can help you out . In passing , I might mention that Smoky Joe, Starvin' Marvin and I have on numerous i nstances enjoyed eating surplus stoeks of food from the M ess • �25 Hall. Smoky Joe told me about Sheriff Brown taking his automobile away from hi m enee beeause the Sheriff had feund some whiskey in it that he (Smoky) was transporting to his road house . Now, Smoky is fighting to get his freedom his freedom to go home and dodge the Sheriff some more, and there is Starvin' Marvin who wants to go home to see his wife and two year old boy; a child that he has never seen~ and so it is with me - I want te go home - I just want to go home. *************** Less than twenty four hours after we landed here we found it - a path that wound its way through the jungle to a dance hall. Now I have danced in New York night clubs, patronized dine and dance places in Mexico, attended parties in exclusive social clubs in Havana, and participated in barn dances in the hills of North Carolina but never have I witnessed a set-up like this one. The dance hall was a native hut with a grass roof and a wood floor. The admission price two pesos. The band consisting of a saxophone, banjo and drum played familiar tunes like "Johnnie Get Your Gun" and "A1exander's Ragtime Band." Seated around the dance floor were several Filipino girls in their recently washed dresses. It was your privilege to dance with them but before doing so you had to remove your shoes and place them under the girl's chair. GI shoes are dangerous weapons, while jitter-bugging with these fair (slightly dark) bare-footed girls and it is while dancing in your socks that you get the true meaning of "socks appeal". ********** ***** I made Corporal but: 1. It was easier for me to date a New York chorus girl. 2. I expended less energy in climbing to the top of Ht. Mitchell. 3. I had fewer headaches going through the depression of 1933. 4. It was less trouble to figure out my 1942 income tax return. 5. course. 6. It took a smaller amount of skill to break a hundred on the golf It took less will power to stay sober on New Year's Eve . (I expect to make Sergeant during World War III.) ************** Since Finkelstein, Silverstein and Stein live in tent 99 anything is liable to happen. We play. We play gin rummy almost every night and I do not hesitate to take Stein and Silverstein on in any gambling activity that might be beneficial to my financial status. I am glad to take their pesos as both smoke my cigars without any offer of payment for same. Silverstein talked so much that the CO made him news commentator for our radio station. Stein's old man manufactures shirts in New York City and his son, a chip off of the old Stein, tries to take the shirt off the back of everybody he does any trading with. So with the oratorical ability of Silverstein, the progressive attitude of Stein and my Finkelstein knowledge of big business, we procured ten gallons of ice cream at a cost of 8 3/10 cents per gallon. It may interest you to know that the market price of ice cream on this island is $7 per gallon. �26 I will relate to you with brevity just how this trade was made. I received from Finkelstein's an item of merchandise retail value $9.75. Stein and Silverstein, under my supervision, traded this item for the ten gallons of ice cream . Off hand it would seem that the cost of the ice cream would be 97 ~ center per gallon but that is not true. I do not expect to pay Finkelstein ' s Inc. for this item of merchandise , and as a stockholder i n said corporation I have instructed them to c harge the accoun t off as a loss . They will not lose the $9.75 as the wholesale cost is less than this amount and furthermore they can deduct the loss from their income tax returns. After much scientific calculation I find that my stock in Finkelstein ' s Inc. has decreased in value 83 cents therefore the cost of the ice cream to me was 8 3/10 cents per gallon. ******* ******** Assorted Duties: chopping down trees digging a well hauling poles hauling fire wood hauling coal fighting forest fires sorting merchandise at warehouse sorting salvage merchandise smashing tin cans hauling water finance clerk detail clerk runner for headquarters stacking lumber pulling weeds and grass cleaning barracks watering trees loading and unloaaing trucks loading and unloading freight cars loading barracks bags on boats and trucks cleaning hatches on boats latrine orderly painting machinery communications clerk engineering cler k �27 Editor's Note: At the end of his tour of duty, Leo Finkelstein returned home to Asheville, North Carolina to resume management of Finkelstein's Pawn Shop.

Leo graduated from Asheville High School in 1922, where he was business manager of the Hillbilly, the school monthly magazine, as well as pianist for a musical group. From playing saxophone with the AsheviJie Shrine Club Marching Band in the 1930s to piano with the Sanctimonious Seven for the Asheville Lion's Club in the 1990s, Leo has served his community though music, humor, business acumen, and community leadership. In 1922 Leo took over management of Finkelstein's Pawnshop, a downtown Ashevillt> institution which Leo's father Harry Finkelstein had opened in 1903 . Since his retirement from Finkelstein's in 1970, Leo has continued to be actively involved in the civic, fraternal, and religious life of the community. A member of the Asheville Lion' s Club for over sixty years, Leo has regaled his fellow Lions with his unique view oflife in Asheville and beyond. Inducted into the U.S. Army Air Corps in 1943, Leo was seen off at the bus by Lion C. Fred Brown, past president of the Asheville Lion's Club and former Vice Mayor of Asheville, who advised Leio to send letters back to the local Lion' s Club. Leo complied. What follows is his record of experiences and observations which were copied and sent back to the Asheville Lion's Club, to be read at meetings during World War II. Following induction at Camp Croft, South Carolina, Leo endured Basic Training at Miami Beach, Florida, before being sent to Tishomingo, Oklahoma for training as an Air Force Clerk. His collected stories were recorded in a diary, given to him by Miss Ruth Anderson, Leo's typing teacher at the Oklahoma College of Agriculture, where soldiers trained to be clerks in the Air Force. The majority of the following stories, vignettes, and poems originated in the Philippines, where Leo served until the final days of the war. �r ~ ~ 9-- "'-""-" '-- dl V b, (9 ft.t.\-0 ) le..o ~-t ~""' ~ • .:· c: • ·.. • .:. ,_:·.·!:'.. ;: . .: ... ~l.·.......... ........

I have learned six new cuss words (especially) for top Master Sergeants , how to use an electric potato peeling machine, how to qo to Miami without a pass , how to stand at attention (while half asleep) , how to shine my shoes with the minimum amount of energy . I have been told that I will be shot if I go AW OL or fall asleep on guard duty and will get half- shot if I drink too much whiskey (like I didn ' t know). I have had so many instructions on making beds , cleaning out toilet bowls and other domestic duties that I think I would make a better wife than a soldier . I have been taught to jump off of nine foot fences on the obstacle course and if I refused to do it - I would be locked up here. If I did things like Lhat at home - I would be locked up there. I have been taught that if a pretty girl walks by - I can look, think and wish, but I ' m not allowed to talk or whistle at her. I have been taught to stand at attention and not move while a fly does calisthenics on my nose . This is the Army Air Force . From Tishomingo , Oklahoma Ti shomingo was an Tndian Chief who died here in the early part of the nineteenth century and this place has been dead ever since. This is the spot where the capitol of some Indian tribe was situated and today i t is a spot where 500 soldiers are s tudying to be technicians in the Air Corps and at the same time improving thejr technique with the co-eds on the campus of t h is college. *************** �5 My mail has been so light lately, all the way back to Asheville . I ' m getting to think my BOis reaching *************** Something happened to the wa ter works in Tishomingo and the Army Officers found that the water wasn ' t pure so none of t h e soldiers can go into town until the town government gets the wate r works fixed. I can ' t imagine soldiers going to town to drink water but I g u ess some of the officials are scared one of them will get drunk and take a bath in it. Before the war I thought being in the army would be a thrilling adventure - but now I know Sherman was right. I Before the war I thought the Air Corps was a mechanized force - but now wonder what the Hell I 'm marching for. Before the war, I thought floors were to walk on - but now I ' v e found they are to sweep a nd mop on. Before the war, I thought the Asheville-Citizen was a rotten n ewspaper but now I enjoy readi n g one four days old. Before the war , I would drink a cocktail before dinner - but now I drink milk with my dinner . Before the war, I would go to b ed sometimes at 4 AM - but now I get up at ll AM . Before the war, I was particular about wha t girl I took out - but now I ' m not so particular. Before the war, I struggled over a golf course - but now I s truggle over an obstacle course . Before the war, I used to shine at a dance - but now I shine my shoes. Before the war , I cussed at a golf ball - but now a sergeant cusses at me because I ' m not on the ball . Before the war, I d i dn ' t have much religion - but now T pray for a furlough. *************** In the army you are always in a hurry to get somewhere so you ' ll have more time to wait after you get there. *********'****** The obstacle course is so tough here that they take us on a nine mile hike to get limbered up so we can make i t . I reached the height of my social career in Tishomingo yesterday when my army typing teacher, Miss Anderson , invited me to have dinner wi th her at the Payne Hotel in the heart of Tishomingo . Miss Anderson is not only the best looking lady teacher on the campus, but a nice person to talk to and get all the information about the religious , social , fraternal , and political life in �6 this county. I arrived at the Payne Hotel exactly on time - for who am J to keep a lady waiting who invites me o ut to dinner and pays the check. My first v iew of the interior of the hotel was d epressing a nd to be conservative and brief with my description of this institution (founded in the s t age coach days) is that it was a pain. Nevertheless , my compan jon was n ice and t he kindly smiles of an understanding teacher to a lonesome soldier helped greatly to make my evening a success. We entered the dining room with a great deal of precision and grace , dodging some water that was leaking from the second floor through the ceiling and drippi n g on the dining room floor. Part of the p laster had already fallen from the ceiling and I felt surely t he balance would come down at any minute . The dining room was also being used for a linen s upply room and lumber storage room. Du ri ng our meal a lady would bring i n dirty line n, pile i t on t h e floor , a nd carry clean lin en out. I never could figure out wh y all the lumber was stacked in the corner and was afraid to ask . After dinner my teacher took me for a personally conducted tour through the darkened, dirty and low-ceilinged halls to room #35 (where she livesl and behold - there I visualized her pride and joy , a private bathroom - the o~ly one in ~ iotel. 1"'""' I" To be continued ... This place is thirty miles f rom a telegraph office and so far from civilization that one gets a wful lonesome at times . In fact one soldier got so lonesome that he got married on the telephone last night. This is a dry place, both in climate and drinking alcohol. It seems that Tishomingo is s o dry that even the bootleggers don't sell it. ••************* They believe in getting mar r ied youn g here and I haven ' t found a single girl over 22 years of age , so I haven ' t found a suitable lady my age to take out . W ould take some of the younger ones out but their papas keep shotgut:s and they know how to shoot straight out W est. Many times in my lifetime I have heard about people seeing snakes, especially at moments when more spirits were absorbed than the system could stand. This county here is very dry. In view of this fact I realized that I had not had a drink during the time I had been here - so it wasn ' t whiskey. Therefore it must be a live snake and there it was on the barrack ' s floor crawling and wiggling and sticking its tongue out at me. That is not the only type pet that is found in our barracks. Just last week we discovered a couple of live frogs and now and then a stray dog will walk in to look us over . At night we a re blessed with some miniature bombers to help put us to s l eep . These extra l a rge bugs are supposed to be June bugs but I know bugs cou l dn't grow tha t l arge in the one month of June. They gain a lot of �7 altitude and all of a sudden will dive at you and manage to find the one bare place that is out from under t h e cover . Otherwise t here is nothing much to bother you in Tishomingo. No pretty girls to get your mind off of your studies and you don ' t even have to be afraid of Indians because they are all tame . ************* * * From Kearns , Utah My frie nds never seemed so numerous - my bed never felt softer - my heart never beat faster - my Hudson never purred so smoothly - days never went by quicker - Mama's food never tasted so delicious - Patton Avenue never looked so glorified - the mountains were never more thrilling - the grass never looked greener - the girls never seemed prettier - the sun never shone brighter - and The Lions Club never looked better as i t did on my furlough home . Don ' t know what the city debt is now but take my word for it - Asheville is worth every damned penny of it. *************** Am here at an overseas replacement training center and considering the tough training I ' m getting now - it looks like the Army is going to make a commando out of me instead of an Air Force Clerk . ****** *** ***** * The Air Corps is just like our G.I. laundry: you get out of it just what you put into it , but you ' d never recognize it. *************** (Copied from another source) ~J~~ ~\. "After returning from my Homing uevice' (furlough), I went to Salt Lake City and done some Blind Flying (date with a girl one has never seen). W e we nt to the USO and had some Battery Acid (coffee). The Hash Burner (cook) didn ' t do so well that n ight so we didn ' t eat , instead we went out to look for some Serum (intoxicating beverage). After a few drinks I had to tell her to roll up her flaps (stop talking) . Then she left me and I had to go on ~ Patrol (search for more female companionship) . Believe me, I walked so much that night that I was ready for a Dog Show (foot inspection) ." *************** Yesterday I went on a ten mile hike in the blazing sun and a dust storm with GI shoes on my feet , leggings on my legs , a steel helmet on my head, a cartridge belt around my waist with a first aid kit and a canteen full of water beating against my side, a gas mask on one shoulder , an eight pound rifle on the other, a pack on my back with a tent, a tent pole, 5 tent stakes, a tent rope , a raincoat, a blanket , a knife, a fo rk, a spoon, a cup, other mess equipment , a suit of underwear, a pair of socks, a handkerchief, a towel , shaving cream, shaving brush, toothpaste , a comb , a razor, a mirror, soap, a bayonet i n my belt and two hand grenades in my packet . I spoke several cuss words out loud before I returned. I'll be court marshaled for that? *************** Do you think �8 Today we were given a demonstration of war gases. I was told to put on my gas mask and was placed in a c hamber filled with tear gas. Everything was lovely until I was instructed to take the mask off and breathe the stuff which I did very reluctantly. My eyes burnedt my nose burned, my throat burned and I cried and cried and cried so they let me out into the fresh air. After partially recovering, I was informed that I would be subjected to several other popular brands of gasses and all I had to do was sniff each one (like a hound dog sniffs at a rabbit track) and associate the smell with something I had smelled in civilian life . This was easy and my analysis was as follows: Chlora-Picknon gas smelled like corn whiskey. Phosgene gas smelled like scotch whiskey. Chlorine gas smelled like rye whiskey.

A soldier here was getting somethinq to eat out of a �9 garbage can today and a Lieutenant nearby said, "Here you! Do you think vou are better than the rest of the men on th~s field - get on in the mess hall and eat!" ••••••••••••••• I've had details on this post from the telephone operator on the firing range to the office boy in the eommanding 0fficer's office) but my most interesting detail was handed to me today when I was made "Garbage Man" for the Mess Hall. Now don't think that a garbage man's job is just an ordinary bit of work. To the contrary, it takes a man who can stand gruesome odors and one who has specialized knowledge of slop and other varieties of waste. Neatly lined up outside of the kitchen of the Mess Hall are thirty-six GI garbage cans. My main duty was to see that the right stuff was put in the right can. There were certain cans designated for wet garbage, dry garbage, vegetable peelings ) fruit peelings, egg shells, coffee grounds, bones, ashes and trash . You must be careful not to put coffee grounds in the slop as it will kill the hogs. Tea leaves will make hogs very sick and if there is any broken glass in it - it won't do the hogs any good . I was quite proud of myself when the K,p , Sergeant complimented me on my work. The only thing that worried me was that I was doing all this for the benefit of hogs and pigs. Recently deodorized, Leo *************** I was told that every good soldier should know how to do his own laundry, so I decide that I'm going to do some washing for myself. I tried to find out the best method for washing clothes but it seemed liked very soldier had a different system. ALter much calculation and thought I start on what I think to be the correct procedure. The first thing I do is steal a bucket from the Mess Hall. Then I go to the PX and buy a box of Rinso and a bottle of Clorox. I put half the box o f Rinso and half the bottle of elorox i n the bucket filled with hot water and place my underwear and socks therein. The directions on the box said to soak for one hour but in order to do a good job I figured I would put the bucket of clothes under my bed for a day or two . Everything was coming along fine until the Lieutenant came through the barracks on an inspection tour and saw the bucket of clothes under my bed. I couldn't explain how the bucket got out of the Mess Hall or why I was doing my laundry during duty hours. The next thing I knew - I was restricted to the Post for a week. Nothing was going to stop me so I started to wash the clothes. I found that the dye had run out of the socks and had got in the underwear and I couldn't get the dye out of the underwear or back in the socks. Therefore, I went up to the Supply Sergeant and signed a statement of charges and got myself some new underwear and socks . Now I'm all washed up trying to wash my own washing . ••••••••••••••• l'roa ea~~~p Ston~, CA I can't tell you where I'm at because the censor wouldn't like it.

I can't tell you about my equipment because it would jeopardize my security.

While I don't have the accommodations of a Cook's tour, I can see the same scenery that many people pay thousands of dollars to see (ocean and sky). The sleeping quarters are a little crowded and the bunks are so close to each other that many times I wake up with another guy's foot in my face or his knee in my stomach. The latrine is also a little crowded. Traffic is so heavy inside (if you can get in) that it would make a New York traffic cop crazy trying to keep things straight. If you ever have to go, you got to go about an hour before you think you got to go so you will get there in time to go - then it takes about twenty minutes to get from where you go to the wash basin. Believe me, Firestone, if I could go out to your cabin for a month and have the privy at my disposal and that creek with fresh mountain water to do my laundry in - I'd be the happiest man in the world • ••••••••••••••• rroa Hew caledonia Here I am on an island in the South Paeifie with nothing t.o write about..

While out walking yesterday I stopped at the farmer ' s house and bought some cake a nd p)e from t h e farmer ' s daughter. T asked h er about some music and she brought out an antique model Victrola with some records . I thought I wo uld hear some music with a South Pacific rhythm but instead it was some good old North Carolina mountain music played by a hillbilly band . Something always happens to remind me of h ome - damn it. *'** *•**** .. *'***? From Guadacana.l Mosquitos are big here. One lit in the runway and they put seventy gallons of gas in i t before they found out it wasn't a P-38. ******* ******** Back home it was said that money isn't everything in life. Over here it might be said that money isn ' t anything in life. There is no place to spend it and nothing to buy. A free movie at night is the height of our entertainment . A bottle of beer once a week is the extent of our drinking . We look forward to mail call and chow. Mail from home is our greatest morale booster . on the walls of our living quarters are the pictures of a girl back home, a favorite movie star or maybe a scantly clad native girl . We see strange animals, lizards , and insects and often wonder why they like to crawl in bed with us. W search the region for souvenirs left by the Japs . We are e visited by natives who wear a towel where their pants ought to be. We work hard, eat plenty and sleep well. There is no complaining here - we are just one big happy family. We have moved into our new wigwam known as " The Southside Social and society Club, South Pacific Branch , Incorporated. " Believe me it is a masterful piece of architecture in solid mahogany . Our foundation is made of empty gasoline barrels. Our roof is made of empty bomb box tins. We got our lumber from an old torn down latrine. We did steal a few good coards after dark when nobody was looking. Our light sockets are home made out of airplane parts . We also have various pieces of antique furniture made out of shipping boxes picked up at the mess hall. We have a front porch. Our roof don ' t leak (very much) . The entire frame-work of our house is covered with mosquito netting and at a distance the shack appears to be a h uge bird cage with monkeys running around in it . Anyhow its home and it is good to know that we again have a place to call our own . *************** "Spot is a dog - a white dog with one black spot over his right eye . Spot is the mascot of a certain crew who maintained a certain airplane at a certain field in the South Pacific. Spot knew ' his' airplane - the airplane his crew worked on . Spot would ride out on the bus to the field every mo rni ng and would j~p off at the bunker on which his airplane wa s parked. He knew the location of his plane just like a civilian dog would know the location of its home . He stayed by his airplane in all kinds of weath ~r a nd admired the splendid way his crew kept the ship in shape . Not long ago the airplane didn't return from a flight therefore the crew didn't go out to the field . Spot would ride out to the field on the bus as usual every morning and would j ump off at the bunker that had held his plane . For many days that followed I could see Spot standing there, alone, on the empty bunker , waiting for his airplane to come home. ********* ****** �12 I discovered a new animal today. It was a lizard, four feet long, running around in my front yard . The reptile looked like an alligator but it didn ' t have the same disposition. Tt was supposed to be harmless but he didn't look very sociable to me . His skin looked like it would make a good traveling bag but since I wasn ' t going anywhere , I didn ' t try to capture t he thing. He finally ran down i n my fox hole and I a m hoping , in the event I have to use that fox hole some night, that he won ' t be there with d wife and family . Anyhow, I am looking forward to the time when I can get home , where there is nothing to bother me but house flies, bumble bees and ants. **********"***** This is a dehydrated war . Our brea k fast is made ~ t. the mess hall with a powder they mix with water. Out of this mixture comes hot cakes , pan cakes , flat - jacks and wheat cakes and they all taste alike . One gallon of dehydrated potato powder is mixed with water and out comes five gallons of mashed potatoes without mashing them . Th e deh ydrated eggs at the mess hall have a sign on them reading " eggs " because they don ' t look like eggs or taste like eggs. The dehydrated milk turns out to be dark grey a nd putting it in the dehydrated coffee keeps you from getti n g an infection from the stuff. The dehydrated lemonade could be used for b attery acid but we use it mostly for washing our mess kits . If somebody woul d only i n ven t dehydrated whis ke y - that wo u ld be a g reat a contribution to the war effort . Our mail is even dehydrated into v-mail . Yes, everything is dehydrated a r ound here except the weather. *****•*** ... **** I am now a politician. of his tribe . This i~ I was the cau se of a na t i ve being made " chief " how it happened . A certain native J called " Joe'' would come ove r to my shack to visit me and even though he talked very little English , I found out from him much about his life and the customs of his people . These poor devils wor k for ten cents a day. They sign u p for a yea r and are paid in full at the end of their contract . Joe always admired a large knife that I had. This knife was sent to me from home , being one that I had in my collection , hanging on the wall of my bar room. Every time I showed it to Joe a big smile would come over his face, his snow white teeth would shine like pearls, his eyes gleamed with fire and he would say ove r and over , " Nice , T like . Nice, I like! " He would carefully caress the etched figure of a lion on the blade and would gaze for minutes at his image on the shiny steel . One day Joe came ove r to see me . He had five American dollar bills wrapped in an old cloth bag. He offered me the five dollars a nd his war club for my knife. I traded with him and he left my shack the happiest man I ' ve ever looked upon. I followed him over to the native village and there the whole tribe gathered around and made him chief because of his ability to acquire such a wonderful knife. Never would J have thought, when T nailed t hat knife to the wall of my bar at home , that someday it would be the cause of a man bei ng made chief of a native tribe on an island in the south Pacific. **********'***** There are no sheets, no mattresses, no pillows, no sprin gs on my cot but when I lay down to go to s leep I acquire a feeling of comfort and contentment. Sometimes I gaze at the stars shining in the tropical heavens . Other times I l is t e n to the rain beating down on the tin roof. There are no pains , no nerves, no responsibilities, no vain regrets , no anticipation of gatherin g difficulties , no financial problems to disturb my hard earned slumber . I wake up i n the morning and look at the mountains around me . Their lofty peaks �13 remind me of the mountains at home. This is a wonderful place to lead a n easy life but frankly I would not hesitate to accept any opportunity to go back to my civilian life once again. Parts of this area are cove r ed with j ungle vegetation . Enormous tree trunks covered with snake like vines , stra nge flowers and inhabited by screeching parrots tower above the semisolid mass of bamboo , palms, ferns , writhing roots , cree ping lizards and thousands of e n ergetic grasshoppers . There are hellgrammites and spiders to be had o n the island but personally I could do well withou t them, especially after seeing the effects of their bites. Letters, letters , letters- that ' s the only way I have to keep i n t ouc h with t h e old country (the United States) and what a problem ! Letters to my mother must be dignified and cheerful . Letters to my fraternal brothers , the police department and some of the girls I used to go with don ' t have to be so dignified. Letters to the bion s Club must be interesting and to the point. Letters to my attorney, accountant, and manager should express my appreciation for their faithful services even though I ' m wondering if they are on the job . In my letters to my Rabbi , I try to be religious . In my letters to my social club, T try to be a beer drinker and a n e xpert card player . betters to my best girl must be affectionate even though I think she is going out with a couple of sergeants. In my letters to my banker I am optimistic , cautious a nd hopeful. In all my letters I can ' t say anything that would demoralile the people at home because I know they are h aving a tough time with ration poi n ts, whiskey shortages , War Bond Drives and taxes . Finally, I have to please the censor but he has an advantage over you - he can cut out what he don ' t like . Poxes don ' t live in a fox hole . Tt ' s a place we run i n, crawl in , fall in , slide in , scramble in or jump in in event of an air raid . M ack and I got orders to fill in an old one by our shack . Mack is lazy as Hell and since I was getting up in years we decided to get a couple of natives to do the job . Mack went over to the native village and negotiated for the job, using two bucks of mine for payment , which I furnished very reluctantly . When the natives started to fill the hole with dirt , a snake , five feet long , ran out . ack , being a country boy, picked up the snake by its tail and Powers (a M butcher in civilian life) , c hopped his h ead off w1th a n axe before T stopped running. The next thing to come out was a ground rat . One of the natives caught him with his bare hands and killed it before I could stop running. The next things to come out were four centipedes about a foot long apiece. One bite from one of these huge worms and you ~un for t h e dispensary as fast as you can , c ussing your draft board all along the way with words unfit to write. The fox hole is now filled up so guess I ' l l take a nap because I'm tired out from running . From Los Negros-Admiralty Islands Prior to my induction in the army I considered myself a respectable upright citizen of Buncombe County , North Carolina. I was always honest except for a few times during my childhood days when I swiped onions from Mrs . Roberts ' garden , stole an apple from Mr. Book ' s grocery store and helped myself to all the cherries I could eat from a neighbor's cherry tree . My childhood habits started again the other day when I volunteered (by �14 request) to help unload several barges of beer . Even though our secret weapons are not guarded, each barge of beer has armed guards . I found that if I accidentally dropped a case of beer that sometimes several bottles would fall out a~d in gathering up these bottles sometimes they accidentally got inside my shirt and as long as they were inside my shirt, I didn ' t see any reason not to drink them. Do you think I'll go to Hell for this? *************** On this beautiful (to some people) island in the Admiralty Group one can sit under a swaying palm tree (until a coconut falls and bounces off your head) and admire the sun-kissed shores (through sun glasses to keep from going blind). You may breathe deeply of the fresh air (saturated with the smell of stagnant salt water) and gaze at the moon (providing you can see through your mosquito net). In the daytime you can enjoy the cool refreshing rains (if you don't mind getting as wet as a drowned rat). In the evenings it's your privilege to see a new movie featuring William s. Hart or Fatty Arbuckle and go back to your tent knowing you will have a good night ' s sleep (providin g you take sleeping pills). It is thrilling to search the jungle for souvenirs (if you don ' t mind picking up booby traps). If you get the tooth ache you can go to the dentist. If you don't feel like working you can go on sick call. If you get homesick you can go see the chaplain. This is an ideal place to be . ******* ... '**'~~~'***'* Every morning at breakfast time I am greeted by " Porkie ." He is a little pig and a cute little pig at that. He could be part dog because he looks up at me and wags his tail . He could be part wild boar because he pushes me around with his nose . Anyhow in this Godforsaken country I welcome most any kind of a friend and believe me Porkie is my friend because he will let me pet him and feed him. Nobody knows where Porkie came from. Maybe the Japs left him here or maybe he wandered down into the camp from the hills . There have been some suggestions about killing Porkie and roasting him ove r a fire but I don ' t think there is any danger of that happening because we can ' t eat Pork]e and have him too . Sometime ago while I was on a troop transport a warning came over the loud speaker than a Jap battleship and two destroyers had been sighted. I was playing checkers , some other guys were playing cards , some reading. You could hear a number of wise cracks abo u t the situation but nobody seemed to be disturbed. We were all in the same boat and it appeared that regardless of our religious beliefs, political opinions, social or financial standings in civil ian 1 if~, that being in the same boat under these conditions united us in the closest bonds of fellowship. True this war has made soldiers of us but in doing so it has not destroyed that individuality, humor and tolerance we possessed. In my opinion it has cemented firmer in us these necessities of a peaceful democratic society. *************•* (Adapted from an instruction booklet) Suppose you got lost in the jungle. You would have nothing to worry about as far as food is concerned . You may eat, with safety, anything that the monkeys eat and you can even eat the monkeys. They are considered a delicacy by the natives. More than likely you would start your day off with a breakfast of �15 grasshoppers . The legs and wings pulled off , toasted on the end of a stick or fried in coconut oil , they are not at all displeasing to the taste . Of course if you don ' t like grasshoppers you could eat winged ants , or termites particularly the quee n s and t he eggs of ants. For dinner I would suggest roasted rat smothered with lizard tails . Rats are plentiful and have a taste simi l ar to large fruit bats. Lizards are also plentiful and the meat from the hindquarters is preferred . A nice seaweed salad would be appropriate . Strangely enough seaweeds are not very salty and their water content is fairly fresh . In general , the pink, purple and the reddish or green seaweeds are best . For dessert I would recommend water lilies with chopped white grub worms . Supper should be your biggest meal . You eould start out with snake meat sliced like bologna, wild sweet potato chips and fern tips. All snakes are good to eat - even the poisonous ones , if the head is cut off immediately after capture. Your soup could be turtle soup seasoned with bamboo shoots and the buds of palm trees . A salad of bananas and figs would go good if you could find some . Your main course may be porcupine stew or broiled kangaroo steaks with hard boiled bird eggs on the side . Seriously spea king all the items I have mentioned in this letter are edible and you don't need any ration points to get t h em. *** .. **'********* Was just thinking what it would be like to have an Asheville Social Club here. ~o begin with you wouldn't have a modern buildin g like the one at home. It would be a frame buildjng covered with netting or straw. The structu re wouldn ' t need a heating plant because we have an abundance of that here. You wouldn't be able to sell beer. The members would have to drink chlorinated river water and like it. The poker players wouldn't be able to concentrate on their hands as the roar of airplanes overhead would disturb them. You wouldn ' t be able to call a taxi to go home . You would have to walk - maybe in some pretty deep mud . You couldn' t hold a dance as there are no women to dance with . The rummy players would h a ve to be satisfied with old dilapidated cards as new ones are rare. The trustees would h a v e no worries since there is no place to spend any money. There would be one advantage of having the Club here - you guys wouldn ' t have your wives calling you up at 1 AM to come home. **** •* ********* I got caught with my pants down. I went into the latrine this morning to enjoy a good smoke and to read the funnies . Gracefully, I made myself as comfo.r table as possible on the GI equipmen t therein, relaxing and watching the flies, red ants , and lizards playing football, follow-the-leader, and other games on the rafters and walls. Suddenly, I noticed a spider sitting right beside me - not an ordinary one with wire size legs , but one whose size reminded me of the lobsters I used to eat at home, and whose legs reminded me of those of Gloria Swanson. The gruesome and monstrous creature crawled slowly toward me and I had no trouble doing my duty - it scared i t out of me . In order that you might become acquainted with my daily routine here, I am listing activit~es below : 6 AM Wake up . Complain about the heat . Shake my shoes to see if any centipedes are parked inside . Put on my clothes. 6 : 04 AM Think about washing my hands but decide it is too much trouble so I start for chow. 6 :06 AM Look for Porkie (the pet pig) but he don't seem to be around �16 yet. Guess he is still asleep - the lucky hog. 6:15AM After a short argument I get the cook to turn my egg over because I don't like i t half done. 6:35 AM wash my mess ki t and complain about the heat. I 6:40 AM Go back to my tent. decide to postpone the job. Looks like it needs cleaning up but 6:41 AM Lay down on my cot and read a few pages of a wild west story. 7:10AM Complain about the heat. 7:30 AM Climb on a GI truck and ride out to my office at the field . The truck jars so much i t almost shakes my kidneys loose. 7:45 AM Arrive at my office (a tent) and dust off the furniture. I don't have to sweep the f l oor because it is a d~rt f l oor and i t don't do no good to sweep the dirt off of dirt. 8:00 AM Sgt. Lueck comes in singing. Can't imagine why he is singing so early in the morning. I soon find out the reason - he made Staff sergeant on a new rating l i st , 8:05 AM Sgt. Lueck says that I didn't make Corporal on the new list because the squadron is lousy with corporals and some of them will have to die, transfer, go horne or get promoted before I could get another stripe. 8:20 AM Capt. Gardner comes in and offers S/Sgt , bueck congratul ations and me his sympathy. He tells me that he did his best to get me a rating and he thinks he will be able to push me up next time. 9:00 AM Pfc. Runnels comes in and wants to know if I made corporal. When he found out I didn't he suggested I enter a complaint . I explained that I wasn't making the army my career and it didn't make much difference one way or another. 10:00 AM I 11 : 00 AM beave the f i e l d for the camp area in the same kidney- shaking 11:15 AM Arrive at the camp area . do the same thing I did at 7:10AM. truck. 11:20 AM Stop at the PX and since they were sold out of candy, cookies and food; I didn't buy anything . 11:31 AM Thought that I would wash up but I go to chow instead. 11:59 AM Lay down on my cot for my noon time nap. heat and fall asleep. Complain about the 1:30 PM Wake up and jump on the truck goi ng back to the field , 1:45 PM Arrive at the office and i t is so hot I take my shirt off. 1:47 PM The flies, using my back for a landing field, worry me so much that I put my shirt back on. 2:10 PM Some pilot does a buzz job with his plane over my tent and I go out to see if the tops of the coconut trees are still there. �17 3:00 PM I do the same thing I did at 10 AM only twice as much! 4:00 PM My day's work done. T hop on the truck for the camp area. Caught one of the new easy riding trucks with eight wheels and no spring. 4 : 20 PM Went by the mail room for my mail which didn ' t arrive. 4:30 PM Against my better judgement I took a shower. 5 : 00 PM Chow. ~ : 4~ PM Write letters . 7:00 PM Moving picture starts. previous occasions , I go see it again. Since I ' ve seen it on only three 10 : 00 PM Lights out. Discussion of various tepics goes o n between t he members of the tent. The subjects under discussion wi ll be omi t ted for the benefit of any person under eight years of age who might read this. Tn this area we have the Army Air Forces and the United States Navy . 1 am in the Army Air Forces and my old friend , Harry Murdock, former assistant circulation manager of the Asheville Times , is in the Navy. Now, we see each other often, and in order to show how mu~h the Navy will cooperate with the Army, Harry agreed to procure fo r me an item that the Navy has and the Army has not. (The method of obtaining this item will not be revealed at this time.) I had not looked upon one of these luxuries for nine months and when he brought it to me , it was too delightful to describe - too wonderful to believe. It wa s more welcome than an umbrella in the rain, an ice cold drink on a hot day or a fur coat by a chorus girl. There was never such beauty in the mountains of western North Carolina at autumn time - no such glamour in a sunset on the ocean or a bathing beauty content . It was more invigorating than a scotch a nd soda or a banana split. Never before had I bestowed upon me such a gift and now when I go to sleep on that second hand " Navy issue'' mattress , I'll dream of days to come when I can be home again. Dear Mom: When I try to eat this GI food, I think of how I ate at home - it's then I think of you dear mom. When I look at my floor of dirt, I think of how the floors at home were so shiny and clean - it ' s then I think of you dear Mom. When I try to go to bed at night, I think of the soft bed I had at home with clean sheets and clean pillow cases - it ' s then I think of you dear Mom. When I have the toothache and nobody here seem to care - it's then I think of you dear Mom. When buttons come off I try to sew them on - it ' s then I think of you dear Mom. You were my cook, my nurse, my advisor , and my teacher and now when I need one of these - it's then I think of you dear M . om ~-*~** ********* �18 If you should become ill all you would have to do is call the doctor and he usually fixes you up . A sick airplane is a different story . To begin with there is a crew who makes general repairs on the ship. Besides this crew there are propeller specialists, engine specialists, hydraulic specialists, bomb-sight specialists• men who specialize in changing engines; ~adio men who repair the radios, a tire change department, a section that looks after parachutes, life rafts, emergency rations, oxygen bottles and fire extinguishers, a supply department for parts needed, a refuel unit to service the ships with gas and oil• i nstrument specialists, welders, sheet metal men; electrical experts, painters, ordnance men to load bombs, a~ent men to look after the guns, carburetor specialists, guards to guard the planes, a clerical staff to keep the records, inspectors, crew chiefs to supervise the crews, flight chiefs to supervise the crew chiefs and line chiefs to supervise the flight chiefs. Aren't you happy that you do not require as much attention as an airplane to keep you in shape? ................ over here, far away from horne, I think a lot and what do you think I think about? First of all, I think a good deal about my family, my loved ones and my friends I left behind. I also think about Sunset MOuntai n, Pack square, Vance Monument, Morn's cooking, the shiny floors in my house - the green grass in the yard. Happenings that didn't seem important at the time now seem to be great events . I think of the time when I was in the second grade of grammar school and stole an apple from Mr. Book's Grocery Store on ~herry street. I remember the first licking my daddy gave me for throwing a rock at my sister - he shook me so hard that the cuff links fell out of my shirt sleeves and I never could find them. I think about the first time I went fishing and caught a fish. I remember the time I went hunting, killed a deer, and was sor~y that I did it. I think about my golf games at Beaver Lake. I can recall the time I almost had a fight with or. Robinson at a Temple Club meeting. I think of the time I beat John vance in an election for trustee of the Elks Lodge. My fondest memories are of the children around town who called me "Uncle Leo." I think about the Christmas day when I played Santa Claus with the rne.m bers of the Lions Club at the Salvation Army Chapel. I think of the night that I, a bachelor, presided at a Father and Son Banquet at Congregation Beth-HaTephila. I think very little of the materialistic things I left behind. I realize now that the important things in my lifetime - the things that mean the most to me now were just little things, just everyday happenings. Corporal Mark is a great guy and that is why I like to do a favor for him if I can. Well, I am the guy who makes up the detail list and Corporal Mark requested that I put him on the roving guard detail. Now, a roving guard has a comparatively easy job. He gets a jeep, rides around all night and sees that no one steals one of our heavy bombers (weight 60,000 pounds). Corporal Mark is very efficient in his guarding because he goes beyond the usual call of duty and guards, not only the bombers, but the mess hall and other places where food and supplies are stored. ~orporal Mark i s very successful in obtaining various types of edibles while on guard duty and during the early morning hours he and I devour this food with a great deal of pleasure and �19 satisfaction to our a : ways hungry stomachs. Now Corporal Mark is an upright. l and honest fellow and I think he was getting the idea that we weren't justl y entitled to the extra stuff to eat . That idea soon vanished because I told him about the amount of taxes the government was hitting me for while I was over here fighting for world peace so we decided ~hat we could go on procurin g this nourishment without hesitation and with a clean conscience. *************** From Wakde , New Guinea l WfiDDil Go Home Here I am an enlisted ma n , Getting along the best I can , The officers have steak while I eat Spam, I wanna go home. Women I crave there is no doubt , Can ' t have nurses here about , Because the officers take them out , I wanna go home . en like me will get the blues , M No whiskey for us and that ain ' t news , Because the officers get all the booze , I wanna go home . can't can ' t But the I wanna I I get a furlough regulations say, rest and I can ' t play, officers manage to find a way, go home . ********"'**"**'*1r The Engineering Office sent Sergeant Reville and me over to the other side of the field to get a new bomber for our squadron . I sure felt important when the fellow over there asked me to sign a receipt for the ship. Can you imagine Pfc . Finkelstein signing for $250,000 worth of airplane? I assure you i t was less trouble for me to get that airplane than i t would be for you to kiss a bride at a wedding . I climbed up in the pilot ' s cockpit while sergeant Reville hooked his eletrac to the nose wheel of the plane . Now Sergeant Reville can pull these 60,000 pound monsters around the field with his eletrac just like a taby pulls a wagon around the living room and knocks over all the furniture only Sergeant Reville never knocks anything over. He pulled me and the airplane down the taxi strip to our area where I stopped the gasoline truck and said, " Hey Corporal , fill her up. I think she will take about 3000 gallons ." As he was filling it up I recalled the time when I was home on my furlough and needed a little extra gasoline to drive my girl up to my favorite parking place on Beaucatcher Mountain and return home (at a decent hour - of course) . W ell , I went to the rationing board and they would only give me five gallons - the stingy devils. W ish they could see me now getting 3100 gallons. The only trouble over here is that I got no automobile and no girl to drive up a mountain. *************** Thousands of Jnps had landed, Near the land of the rising su~ , On an island in the Pacific, �20 They had nowhere else to run . Now on this tiny island , A good size town was found , The Japs - they took it over , And wandered all around. Our bombers got their orders, And took off on the mission, To save the town if possible , And bomb the Jap position. One bombardier was fearless, And always on the ball , This flight he made a grave mistake, With no excuse at all . He aimed right at the target , He carefully fixed his sight, He missed the Jap position , Hit a house with a big red light. Now when we take t hat island, And give the Japs a trimmin ' , We ' ll still be cussin' the bombardier, Who blew up all the women. It all started when I received one of Finkelstein's $7 . 95 rebuilt watc h es . A guy offered me an old radio and twenty-five dollars in cash for it and I traded. Money is almost useless over here but I managed to give the twenty-five dollars to another guy who gave me a half gallon of home-made drinking beverage which I think was made out of fermented canned corn and 100 octane gasoline. I pooled my half-gallon of imitation "Carolina corn " with a fellow who had a case of beer and we proceeded to drink it all up vut he passed out before we finis h ed and I had ten cans of beer left on my hands as my share of the party. I traded the beer for a pipe , ten packages of tobacco , a pocket knife and a fountain pen. I traded the knife for a flashlight and three cans of beans. I ate the three cans of beans and traded the fountain pen for an electric light socket, a cigarette lighter and two dollars. I invested the two dollars in a crap game, won eight dollars, took the proceeds and bought a radio tube to fix my radio. I traded the radio for a boat which later sank. I traded three packages of tobacco for four cigars and three air mail stamps . I smoked the cigars and used t he three air ma il stamps to write to three friends back in the States requesting from each a box of food. Now, when and if I receive these boxes of food , I will be able to render to you a complete financial statement as to how I came out on the watch. Here in the jungle we don ' t have houses for house flies to live in but we do have house flies. These flies look like the flies at home who have survived the fly swatter , but they don't lead the same kind of life . They follow us wherever we go but they don't follow us to the mess hall because they don ' t like the GI food the mess sergeant slings at us no more than we do . Once in awhile , if a fly gets about half starved , he will fly around the mess hall looking for something to eat. They are persistent devils and they won ' t be shoo'd away like the American flies. During dinner one made eighteen dives at my mess kit before I got him. Many of these brave flies, who dare eat our �21 food , j ust turn over on their backs after the first bite , kick their legs up i n the air and die. It ' s a r o ugh war - even for flies . ************** * The war seems to be getting l onger every day . * ******* ** ***** From Noemfoor Starvin ' Marvin ' s real name is Sgt .

Luke the Droop has been overseas thirty months and expects to go back to the States on the " Rotation Plan '' only it hasn ' t rotated far enough to reach him yet . on this account he is very cautious during air raids b ecause he figures he is going home soon and he wa nts to get there in good shape . One night Hoim the Woim (which is a s h ort name for Herman t h e German ) woke us up yelling "Air Raid. " Luke the Droop was dressed and in a fox hole before any of us got out of bed. By the time I put on my shoes and grabbed my clothes everybody was gone including Ed the Red who moves very slowly especially whe n i t comes to doing any work on his airplane . I wa ndered out of the tent , t he moon was shining brightly a nd everything seemed p eaceful to me . It wasn ' t peaceful long and I beat five guy s to a jeep and crawled under it. It was my first air raid experience and now I imagine I ' ll be know as " Foxhole Finkelstein " instead of Leo the Her o . ************k** Written from MOrotai My Helmet M helmet is a useful thing , y To wear upon my head, It ' s made of good materials , And feels almost like lead .

He found his gal, Did not feel fit , She had a cold, That wouldn ' t quit. And every time , That she would cough, The jungle snake , Would get hissed off. Master Sergeant Johnson and I started the evening off by opening a can of salmon and e nded up by opening a gold mine or at least we pla nned to open one after the war. Sergeant Johnson , after looking at the label on the above mentioned salmon can , told me that he was once foreman of the cannery in Alaska that canned this particular can of salmon. He insisted on telling me about the different species of salmon, the white salmon, the pink salmon and ! forgot the other colors he mentioned. Anyway I wasn ' t interested in the colors of salmon in Alaska because I was hungry and the only salmon I was interested in at that particular time was the salmon in the can. In order to be sure we wou ldn ' t get poison ed by the salmon , we took several shots of Jungle Juice before and after eating the fish. For your information Jungle Juice is made of 190 proof medical alcohol , colored and flavored with burnt sugar and diluted with a small quantity of water. Jungle Juice seems to build up conversation and t h e conversation drifted all around Alaska . W fi nally got on the subject of gold and gold mines . e According to what Sgt. John son said , he h ad done a goodly amount of gold hunting in Alaska and was well versed in mineralogy. W figured we could buy e a seaplane after the war from the Navy at a fraction of the original cost , fly to Alaska , land on the many inaccessible lakes , pan th~ir shores for gold and get rich quick (if the income tax man don ' t find us). I have written all my friends back home offering to sell t h em stock in t h e Finkelstein-Johnson F.xpedition to Alaska. Smoky Joe ' s home is just a little bit south of Asheville , North Carolina. He is one of the cooks down at our Mess Hall , a good guy, and a GI who can sympathize with all the other GTs who have to eat the food he prepares . Before the war Smoky Joe owned a road house on the highway going south from Asheville , and, after talking with him I found that I had patronized his institution on numerous occasions during my youn ger yea r s . Sin ce we were practically neighbors in civilian life , we felt that we should continue over here as good ~eighbors and so we are. There is no better friend in the Army than a cook because when you get hungry - he is the only man who can hel p you out . Tn passing , r might mention that Smoky Joe, Starvin' Marvin and I have on numerous instances enjoyed eatin g s urplus stocks of food from the M ess Hall . Smoky Joe told me about Sheriff Brown taking his automobile away f rom him once because the She riff had found some whiskey in it t h at he (Smoky) was �25 transporting to his road house. Now, Smoky is fighting to get his freedom his freedom to go home and dodge the Sheriff some more, and there is Starvin' Marvin whe wan~s te go heme ~o see his wife and two year old boy; a ehiid that he has never seen, and so it is with me - I want to go home - I just want to go home . ................ rraa s-r; Phi.l.ipp:lna za. Less than twenty four hours after we landed here we found it - a path that wound its way through the jungle to a dance hall. Now I have danced in New York night clubs, patronized dine and dance places in Mexico, attended parties in exclusive social clubs in Havana, and participated in barn dances in the hills of North Carolina but never have I witnessed a set-up like this one. The dance hall was a native hut with a grass roof and a wood floor. The admission price two pesos. The band consisting of a saxophone, banjo and drum played familiar tunes like "Johnnie Get Your Gun" and "Alexander's Ragtime Band." Seated around the dance floor were several Filipino girls in their recently washed dresses. It was your privilege to dance with them but before doing so you had to remove your shoes and place them under the girl's chair. GI shoes are dangerous weapons, while jitter-bugging with these fair (slightly dark) bare-footed girls and it is while dancing in your socks that you get the true meaning of "socks appeal". *************** I made corporal but: 1. It was easier for me to date a New York chorus girl. 2. I expended less energy in climbing to the top of Mt. Mitchell. 3. I had fewer headaches going through the depression of 1933. 4. It was less trouble to figure out my 1942 income tax return. 5. course. 6. It took a smaller amount of skill to break a hundred on the golf It took less will power to stay sober on New Year's Eve. (I expect to make Sergeant during World War III.) ************** Since Finkelstein, Silverstein and Stein live in tent 99 anything is li.a ble to happen. We play. We play gin rummy almost every night and I do not hesitate to take Stein and Silverstein on in any gambling activity that might be beneficial to my financial status. I am glad to take their pesos as both smoke my cigars without any offer of payment for same. Silverstein talked so much that the CO made him news commentator for our radio station. Stein's old man manufactures shirts in New York City and his son, a chip off of the old Stein, tries to take the shirt off the back of everybody he does any trading with. So with the oratorical ability of Silverstein, the progressive attitude of Stein and my Finkelstein knowledge of big business, we procured ten gallons of ice cream at a cost of 8 3/10 cents per gallon. It may interest you to know that the market price of ice cream on this island is $7 per g.allon. I will relate to you with brevity just how this trade was made. I received from Finkelstein's an item of merchandise retail value $9.75. Stein and Silverstein, under my supervision, traded this item for the ten gallons of �26 ice cream. Off hand it would seem that the cost of the ice cream would be 97 ~ center per gallon but that is not true. I do not expect to pay Finkelstein's Inc. for this item of merchandise, and as a stockholder in said corporation I have instructed them to charge the account off as a loss. They will not lose the $9.75 as the wholesale cost is less than this amount and furthermore they can deduct the loss from their income tax returns. After much scientific calculation I ti nd that my stock i n Finkelstein's Inc . has decreased in value 83 cents therefore the cost of the ice cream to me was 8 3/10 cents per gallon . ***** ... ***'**'**** Assorted Duties : chopping down trees digging a well hauling poles hauling fire wood hauling coal fighting forest fires sorti ng merchandise at warehouse sorting salvage merchandise smashing tin cans h auling water finance clerk detail clerk runner for headquarters stacking lumber pulling weeds and grass cleaning barracks watering trees loading and unloading trucks loading and unloading freight cars loading barracks bags on boats and trucks cleaning hatches on boats latrine orderly painting machinery communications clerk engineering clerk �~ 21 Editor' s Note: At the end of his tour of duty, Leo Finkelstein returned home to Asheville, North Carolina to resume management of Finkelstein's Pawn Shop.

One of the highlights of the event was having Ben Steinberg of Toronto, Ontario in anendance. He is, without question, the "dean" of composers of music for Jewish worship (you all know the "Shalom Rav" we sing). He was very candid in his views of cum:nt musical "fads" and highly critical of the UAHC leadership's position on worship music for temples. Very thought-provoking, indeed. I have known Ben for many years. and this was a terrific opportu· nity to hear from one of the greatest of Jewish composers about the "State o f Jewish Music." Our morning and afternoon worship services were magnificent, musically speaking. Can you imagine a congregation of cantors, soloists and other music professionals singing together? The four-part harmonies WCT'C absolutely delicious! I hope to have a chance to present more about the conference to you soon.

LUNCH WITH THE RABBI At Noonon February ts•, in Uneer Hall, we'll meet over sack lunches and discuss an article by Joe Hie/cs entitled "Common Good/Special Interest: Can They Creatively Co-Exist?" Today, ''the concept of the common good," says Hie/cs, "is nearly lost as groups posture themselves for advantage in the service of their group's interests." In many ways, this discussion will focus on the very old Jewish problem of universalism vs. particularism.

"In 1996, in the final season of the 13·yearexcavation of Tel Miqnc in Israel, excavaton discovered a monumental inscription that is surely one of the most sensational finds of the 1990s," Demsky writes.

Schandler (Dr. Joe Schan dier and Rutl1 Fox's father}, Sender Argintnr, B. Pearlman, S. Finestein, Isaac Michalove (Dr. Paul Michalove's grandfather's brother), S. W. Silvem1an, H. L.

As you know, the commission follows confirmation by the Senate after nomination by the President.

I particularly thank you for writing to the Senators in my behalf - for this, I am truly grateful. I look forward to seeing you soon.

The gold wears off and you find yourself in a dilapidated condition. In a retirement home some of the residents are physically disabled a nd some are mentally disabled.

MARIAN C. CASE, '22. (2) (8) �.ftlfranhg's l'ribt Mildred Askew, '21. MirandY and Hiram Pennywick had livl>d at Hobrook Farm ever since they were marr'led. Seeing that there were six grown sons and daughters with families of their own, we must conclude that that had been quite a long while. But strange to say, these years had not been spent in peace and tranquility as you would most likely think, for, as Mirandy sometimes said, "Me and Hiram ain't spoke one to 'tother for nigh on to fifteen years." Myra, the long suffering "hired" girl, was the medium through which these two stubborn people s poke to one another. It was always "Myra, you tell Hiram, I said-" and "Myra, you tell MirandY, I said-" and in that way it had gone on year after year, until it became almost a habit. Now, don't mistake me and think that the Pennywicks were disagreeable people at all. They were merely two stubborn people, probably a little more proud and determined than their neighbors, but at the Rock Creek Baptist Church Mr. and Mrs. Pennywick were very fine members and at every "singin'" or picnic !irs. PennywicJc>s well laden basket always made its prompt appearance. So did Mirandy and Hiram, although at the far-famed "camp meetings" when even one sang "Old Time Religion" at the top of his or her voice and t he preacher called for all of them who had any hard feelin's toward one another to shake hands and be at peace with mankind forever more, Mr. and Mrs. Pennywick sat stolidly immovable. Sons, daughters, friends, affectionate relatives, all had tried to restore the mother and father to their former relations, but alas, in vain, Now, it was nearing another Tba'lksgiving and all the children and their families were coming home, perhaps some loving little grandchild could undo the tangle. But, the thought of patching up the disagreement was far from Mirandy's mind, for Pat, her favorite and youngest (4) son, was coming from Arkansas, bringing his new wife with him. She could only guega what this new daughter was like. Of course, Pat bad written and his version was that ''Cornelia is the dearest and best girl in the world and Motb~ would just adore her." But that was Pat, and Pat was ic love, and Cornelia was one of those highbrow names one sees in novels. So Mirandy was not so sure she would admire this new daughter so much. At any rate, the house must be cleaned from ce1.lar to garret, and great-grandmother Pennywick's woven samplers brought out from among the moth balls and spread on the high feather beds. Then, of course, there was to be cooking-lots and lots of it, for she remembered how many cookies and pies her children always ate. This year everything must be as perfect as possible, for Mirandy had a great deal of pride, and was determined to show Cornelia that her mother-in-law knew as much as the "city folks." Hiram and the hired man had their hands full, too. There were big logs to get for the immense fireplace in the front room. Then, there was the big strutting turkey gobbler to be killed. Everywhere in the bouse one could smell the spicy odors from the kitchen. In fact, you could just feel that Thanksgiving was near. As last Thanksgiving morning dawned and with It Myra came down with a dreadful toothache. "Myra," said Mirandy, "you can go to Doc Simmons and have that tooth pulled as Jim goes to the depot to fetch the children. Call Hiram and tell him it's time for him to hitch up to leave now." Then as Myra proceeded to bundle up for the ride, groaning all the while with her aching molar, Mirandy lectured her on th11 advantage of having false teeth. "They never ache nor do you have to go to the dentist with them," she explained. Then Jim and Myra left and Hiram went outside. Finally, Uie dinner was all cooking splendidl:v and, upon looking at the clock, M.irandy discovered that nearly two (6) �hours had passed. They would aoon be returning; so she went to her room to put on a clean apron, smoothed her hair and gazed thoughtfully at herself for several minutes. "Well, Mirandy Pennywick, if your hair didn't grow so high upon your head, you'd look better, but at any rate, you'd better be thankful that your teeth are nice tmd white and never wiU ache like poor 1\b'ra's, and city folks sure do notice teeth more t han anything else, so they say; so I guess I have one good point, anyway." A s she passed into the front room, she made a resolution that whether Cornelia pleased her or not, she would try to like her for Pat's sake. With this splendid resolution in mind, she went toward the fi.r e and was about to give it a good shaking up, when-she sneezed. No mild little cough but a full snee1.e, and horrors I her teeth flew out and went into the middle of the fire. What should she do? She could hear the bells now. They would be there in about ten minutes now. She gave several frantic jabs with the poker .but all to no avail. She could not call Myra, for Myra was gone. Could she possibly get along without her teeth until they came back? Certainly the children wouldn't mind but-the thought of Pat's new wi~e came to her mind. A glance in the mirror on the mantle told her that her sagging jaws and toothless gums would not be pleasing to a fashionable city-bred girl. There I the horses would be at the gate in a minute now. Just then she heard Hiram's heaVY step in the kitchen. "Oh, thank goodness!" She dashed into the kitchen, seized Hiram by the arm and dragged the astonished man after her into the front room. She pointed and gesticulated wildly, but all of no use. Hiram could not or would not see those teeth. There! She heard Jim say, "Whoa!" With one mighty effort, she llsped, "lliram, pleath get mY teeth, they're in the fire." Instantly, it seemed, Hiram saw the missing plate, and (6) in a flash they were out of the flames. Both of them rushed into the kitchen and plunged the teeth into cold water. In a second they were back in Mirandy's mouth again, clean and white a s usual. Just then they heard stamping on the front porch. "Mirandy," Hiram almost whispered. "You always were right about that--that I've just been a stubborn fool not to have admitted it before." "Of course, Hi, you weren't to blame," Mirandy said smilingly. "But 1 was right after all, wasn't 1?" "Yes, I guess you must have been, for it surely did turn out that way," replied he" husband. But in the meantime they heard a fresh young voice calling, "Mother, 0 Mother! Pat , wher e is my new mother? I do want to see her so badly." So Hiram and Mirandy went out together to welcome their pleasing new daughter. A little Inter when Mirandy went into the kitchen to see how t11e big turkey was getting along, Myra said, "Oh, Mrs. Pennywick, Doc Simmons said he would have to make me a false plate, but that he could make me one every bit as satisfactory as yours has been."

"Go I And if ever you return, may the god Lolu help you, for you shall be burned to death and your ekull shall adorn the shelf of the sacred tempe." Saying this, HAmbo leaned back upon his throne and whispered an order to one of his attendants. Bobo looked at the face of Rambo and realized the uselessness of further argument. Without more ado, he turned and folJowed the man who had his arms. He was led to the edge of t he village, where he was given his bow and assegai and told to be gone. He was even denied the privilege of bidding farewell to Rambo's daughter, Plutorina, the cause of all .the trouble. He was not in a very good frame of mind, as he entered the dark jungle. He was Gornia that is, one who bas been exiled from his tribe and is not allowed to join another. Be was the enemy of every one, and whoever met him would instantly give battle to him. While Bobo is threading his way through the bamboo and vines, I will tell you who he is, and why be is exiled f rom hls tribe. Be was the last of the old line of Wabangos, or the Long-toothed. They were the real rulers of the Rolybow tribe. Thirty years before this, befor e Bobo was born their power had been usurped by the present king, Hambo: The father of Bobo died without being able to regain his throne, but Hambo was secretly afraid that Bobo would some day recover It, so he eagerly waited some excuse to get rid of him. However, he could find no pretense, until h.e learn~ that.Bobo was in love with his daughter, Plutonna. Usmg this as an excuse, he banished Bobo--he was afraid if he put h im to trial, the tribe .would r ebel. Many of them favored Bobo and wished him to be king. But Barnbo was satisfied that Bobo would meet his death fn the jungle. Even if be escaped the lions and other carnivorous beasts, be was sure of being kiJied by some hostile t ribe. As Bobo was gliding along in the vefvet darkness the realiza?on of his danger became keener every instant. 'This self-evtdent fact, coupled with the knowledge that he bad lost Plutorina, the one whom he cared for more than anyone ebe in the world, caused him to break down and give way ~o h!s feelings. . Su~denly he seemed t o hear some one crymg )uat a few fe~t m front of. him. He stopped in surprise, fo~ he thought hunself alone m the forest. The mysterious vo1ce stopped al.so. Bobo was mys tified. Be be1ran crying (8) again in exactly the same way as before, and the voice also beg&n crying. He cried loude!:-the voice sounded farther away. He cried softly-the voice sounded nearer. He had discovered his power as a ventriloquist. In the next two weeks, by constant practice, Bobo became quite an expert in t he art and could throw his voice wherever he desired. Also, he could imitate the wild Africnn animals and make their roars and growls come from any place he wished. After two weeks of exile, Bobo felt a great longing to return to the tribe. He wanted to see Plutorinn and try to persuade her to escape with him to some friendly tribe. Finally. he decided to return and spy around the village. That night found him outside the stockade. At first, he wall unable to find an openlng; but on circling the long row of posts of thick bamboo, he came upon one that was loose enough to enable him to wriggle through. On entering the encampment. he found himself at the back of the temple of the r,od Lolu. First, he ascertained as to \Vhether the high priest and his numerous assistants were asleep. L ifting the heavy kala grass mat that served as a door, he peered within. Lying on the floor 'vere the devotees of Lolu; but !~tAnding nt one end of the temple were two warriors in all the paraphernalia that distinguishes the African savare when war is on. They appeared to be looking earnestly out into the black jungle that showed above the stockade, and there wm~ on their ebony faces an e;<pression of watch fulness coupled with fear. The way in which they gripped their a~segais and war shields sh owed that they were expecting an enemy of some ki nd. Bobo softly let the mat fall back into place and quietly withdrew to the shadow of the largest hut in the enclosur e, that of Hambo, t he king. No lights gleamed, but the !ow murmur of voices coming from it showed that quite a crowd was collected within. Bobo crept closer in an ende~wor to hear what they were saying. In doing so, be nearly ran into two more guards also in lheir har11ess of war. and also with the same halffearful. half-expectant expression as they gazed fixedly at the dark j ungle that showed up so blackly under the rays of the full Africa moon. Bobo surmised that the tribe was at war with one of its numerous enemies. What he next heard confirmed this. Hambo was saying in the language of the tribe: "Friends and fellow-tri besmen, we are now at the limit of our resouJ·ces. The siege hns been carried on now for ten days (9) �and our food is gone-the last ration o f meat and corn was given out this evening. We have not seen the enemy aU day. They are probably waiting outside until some one ventures forth , when they will gain the gate before it can be closed. I myself know not what to do. If we remain here, we shn11 starve-if we go out, we shall be kiled. In the morning let every one assemble in the temple of Lolu. There we shall ask the great god to deliver us from our plight and to help us overcome our enemies, the fierce Wallyhoos." After Hnmbo had finished s peaking, aU grew quiet. It was evident that all would stay in the largest hut, as it offered the best protection in time of war. Bobo sat thinking long into the night. Finally an expression of determination setUed on his face. He rose softly and glided like a shadow into the darkeru;s outside the stO<'knde. The next morning the entire village assembled within and in front of the temple. There '''ere nearly two hundred all told, and all showed the effects of the siege. The women were hollow-cheeked and weak lo okin~t, while the bnbies and the small children that they held had a look of dumb fear and suffering written large upon their faces. The men, all of whom were in thei r harness of war, showed themselves capable of putting up a stiff fight by the expressions or hate and anger with which they were talking of their enemies. There were about seventy-five nble-bodied wnrriors and about twenty youths and old men who would give a good account of themselves, if the worst came to the worst. Suddenly everyone of them grew quiet and an air of hope and expectancy showed on their dark f aces. Hambo, accompanied only by n little slave boy, came from his tent and rwostrnted himself before the hideous idol. At that m<>ment, if any one hnd been looldng at a certain tree about fifty feet distant, he would have seen a movement in its branches that could hAve been caused only by some heavy object. But all were listening in wrapt attention to Rambo, ns he gro,relled in the dust before the image of Lolu. "0 thou God of my tribe, tell me what to do to prevent t he destruction of your people. The accur sed WaUyhoos have us \vhere we arc nearly defeated ; and if that happens, all our men will be killed, and our wives and children sold into slavery. Tell me, 0 Mighty God, what to do to sav~ ~·our people." Sayinp this, Hambo again prostrated himself before the idol. Suddenly from the graven lips of the image came forth the one word, ''Ka-goda," which literally interpreted, means "Attention !" The space in front of the temple was still as death while all held their breath and gazed with wild-eyed amazement at the idol. And no wonder-it was the first time Lolu had ever condescended to speak to his subjeeta. There was a pause-then from the idol's lips there issued the following: "0 Hnmbo, false king, and you, 0 children of th~ Rolybo, you desire me to aid you in getting out of the .Phght you are now in. 1 will grant what you so much destre, on one condition-the exiled warrior, Bobo, your real king, must be recalled and you must do lvhatever he command.s you. And you, 0 fnlse King Ilambo, you also must be di:ected by him; And if he, under my guidance, lends you to vtct?ry, you must give in mnrriage to him, you r daughter, Plutorma. If you do not accept these conditions, I will not only refuse to aid you, but I will lend your enemies, the savage Wallyboos, to victory over you. Answer." And the entire village murmured in one voice, "It shall be as you wish, 0 mighty Lolu." "Then be prepared to fight, 0 ye warriors, for I shall summon Bobo (rom the forest, and he shall be at the gate tomorrow at dawn." As the crowd disappeared, talking in awed whispers of the miracle that harl happened in their midst, there was on their faces a look of hope and courage-they were now certain of victory, J<ince the gods were on lheir side. Early the next m:>rning the entire ~pulati~n was .assembled at the village gate. All the wamors-Wlth th~IT long, keen-bladed assegais and boat-like shields of rhin?C~ros hide-were ready for battle. They wore their bnlbant bea<l-dt·esscs of fenthcrR of the manu-bird and ostrich. Their faces wer e made doubly hideous by the weird paintings on them. Everyone was talking exci~y, when .a cry was heard outside the ~:ate. All recogruzed the votce 88 Bobo's, nnd the gate was quickly opened. In walkec1 the exiled warrior, also clarl in his armor. They made room for him, lL'I he strode up to the idol. Kneeli!lg pn the ~und, he sairl: "0 Lolu 1 have come at t hy btddmg. Wtth thy help, I wlll overco~e the enemies of thy people." Rising to his feet, he joined the warriors, and quickly gave them instructions. "The enemy " he said. "are encampes.i at the large clearing in the fore;t. They bave withdrawn aJI their spies save two, and are now celebrating their seemingly eASY victory (10) (11) �by a war-dance. The two spies whom they had watehing the village are now dead, and two of you shall put on their accroutrements. Then go to the camp and report that all is well nt the village. l n the meantime, the rest of you will go to the camp and surround them. Wl1en you hear t he roars of Muma, the black lion, coming from the heart of the large palm in the center of the clearing, make ready; and when the words, 'You are about to die !' come from it, charge, and the God Lolu, will help you to victory." In the enemy's camp t here was great rejoicing-at last the dreaded Rolybows would be defeated. There was much spoil to be taken in the village. There were mm1y women and children there who would bring much money from the Arab slave-trader s. Had not their scouts just reported that all was well in the village? Soon it would be so weakened that its capture would be an easy matter . Accordingly, the sa\·age Wallyhoos relaxed all vigilance in their camp and gave themselves over to the pleasures of the war-dance. When the danee was at its wildest, there suddenly sounded from the tall palm tree in the center of the clearing, the frightful roar s of thei r dreaded natural enemy, Muma, t he lion. The Wallyhoos stood as if t urned to stone, as immediately after the roars, there came these words, "0 Wallyboos, be r eady for death, as you r doom is upon you!" Then with wild yells and shrieks of fear, they broke and ran in every direction. Then did the warriors of Rol ybow fall upon them and fierce was the fight that took place. The Wallyhoos, though outnumbering their opponents, were so handicapped by their fears t hat in a shor t time, all those wlto were not captured wer e either dead or dying o'C their wounds. At last it was discovered that Rambo, the false king, had been killed in the batUe. No matter how great a scoundrel he was, he was still a great warrior-as the circle of dead Wallyhoos arouncl him testified. Then came the triumphant return to the village. Bobo was the hero of all, for they knew that only by his and the God Lolu's help, had the battle been won. That night at t he big dance of victory, Bobo and Plutorina were escorted to. the royal throne, amid loud shout~ of "Long live the great King Bobo and his beautiful Queen Plutorina !"

One of the llB boys is said to have gone without meat to buY books. Excited Junior: "Oh , I swallowed a pin." l'tfrs. Barton: "Don't worry. Here is another one." is still much to be SAid on this subject, and a final decision has not yet been reached. We have been attempting to choose a standard school ri ng or pin to be used by all the coming Senior Classes, so that anyone seeing a person wearing either at any time or anywhere will know him to be a graduate of the Asheville High School. The members of the liB Class have been concerning themselves with the selection of a ring also. However, up . o this time, no choice has been made. t On October 26th, we were very pleasantly entertained with a reception by the eleventh year Cooking Class. Dainty refreshments were served, and the occasion was highly enjoYed by all present. 1\iiss Zeitha Patterson delightfully entertained us with a Hallowe'en party on November 1st. Our faculty adviser, Mr. Hanaman, acted as chaperon. Many games were played, and every one had a most enjoyable time. A hike to Weaverville planned by the lOB girls for some time has been postponed. It is thought that tht)y will go soon and they are looking forward to a jolly and good time. The 9A girls ·m,~t Tuesday, October 25th, and organized their class. The following officers were elected: President, Mary Harris; vice-president, Margaret Whitlow; secl'etary, Evelyn Miller. The girls will take charge of their assembly next Thursday morning and a very interesting program is being ar ranged.

Marc Rudow Fundraising VP, TBA Programming VP, Carol Deutsch House VP, Alan Levy Membership VP, Marty Lee Treasurer, Kerry Friedman Secretary, TBA Immediate Past President, Frank Gilreath Direct or's D esk Dear Friends, This month we print our last issue of the ·center of Things", our JCC newsletter. This publication has been part of our local landscape for many years, and its retirement marks the end of an era. We (the staff, the board, and committees who want to get the word Alison Berkey Gilreath Lillian Bieber Phil Cohen out for events) have recognized for Julius Blum Arlene Doloboff quite some time that as an advertising/ Shirley Cohen Janet Grant marketing tool, the newsletter didn't Hilda Ehrlich Stan Greenberg quite "worl<". We routinely sent at least Art Green one extra flyer for every program (more Sue Greenberg Jan Kahn if we were depending on a big turnout) Ed Katz Joe Karpen Ellie Miller because the newsletter never seemed Gary Kramer Cele Resnick to remind anybody where to be, let Barbara Pasternack alone when, all by itself. Gary Schwartz Jules Resnick There's no doubt that this reflects the David Seidenberg pace of our lives- do we call them overbooked or admit that they border H o n o r ary Dir e ctors on the chaotic? Despite such obRabbi Shmuel Birnham Fred Kahn Rabbi Robert Ratner Sidney Schochet stacles, however, our goal is to effectively communicate with our commuJerry Sternberg nity, and it seemed to many of us that our old modus operandi had become Staff obsolete. Moreover, as the Center Executive Director, struggles to become an economically Marlene Breger-Joyce self-sustaining institution, we have to Administrative Director, Diana Sutton Publications & A quatics, Penny White focus on an efficient use for every cent. At last week's board meeting, and Maintenance, Robert Ramsuer several prior finance committee meetings, we examined every disCh ild re n's Staff Judaica Coordinato r, Debi Miles bursement with this thought in mind. It was decided that we would return one Lani Anderson seminar room to the preschool proCatherine Brockwell Cindee Cooke gram and alter components of our Nelly Garcia Carson Gilbart camp/pool format to increase revenue Kim Harrison and allow for zero excess expense. Nicketie Jayne Susan Hedgepeth Max Keller Lisa Lorr Stephanie Lynn Adam Mills Anna Morgan Carolyn Myers Nancy Patterson Lola Oswald Terri Stamm Shelly Mehlen Dietra Saunders Paige Butler Under this kind of scrutiny, the newsletter just didn't make the cut. We will continue to communicate via e-mail and post upcoming events at Congregation Beth Israel and Temple Beth Ha Tephila. If you are a JCC member you will continue to be notified of the programs designed for you. ryYe are going to carefully code our mailing list so you'll receive mailings by category, i.e. seniors, family, etc.) If you are not a JCC member, $50.00 will purchase a year's worth of JCC mailings. As with all changes, even th e sensible and positive, there is loss. My earliest JCC memories include watching Penny cut and paste this bulletin and the hours that staff and seniors spent hand-collating the copies when they came back from the print shop. (No desktop publishing or machine collating a decade ago.) For the past six years, I've 'talked' to y'all every month through this newsletter, celebrating our best moments together and commiserating over our worst. Whether I was telling you, chapter by chapter, th e story of how this new Center came to be, inviting everyone to Amy's Bat Mitzvah, or just sharing my top ten reasons for loving the Chanukah dinner, I've treasured this connection with you. Being loathe to totally give it up, you may find shorter communications from me worked into our other publications from lime to time. And some things, mercifully, will never change. So I'll see everyone at dusk on Sunday, December 13th to light the first Chanukah candle together just like we always do. Til then, Shalom, /"\-.~ Marlene �Around the Center Thank You To Hilda Eh rlic h for her contributions to the JCC:In honor of Mr. and Mrs. Abe Fnedman's 50th Anniversary, in honor of Abe Friedman's 75th birthday, in honor of Roz Fnedman's birthday, and in appreciation of Walter ZiffP.r.

Camp Colby, outside of Birmingham. AL, the weekend of October 23-25. We slept (to some degree) in cabins together, attended services. made new friends, (the kids are great minglers) and ate and benched together. Great programming by the older Bogrim, including our own Rene Breadon, was presented on issues relating to aliyah to Israel. We/you have a great group of kids and they're a pleasure to spend a weekend with. On November 8, Michelle Gregory came to the JCC to speak to us about the international language of Esperanto (created by Dr. Ludwig L.Zamenhof, a Jewish citizen of Bialystock in 1887). We all studied the simple grammar rules of Esperanto, learned many important words/nouns (like the always useful word 'wonderbra ') and listened to Michelle speak the language. After a grueling one hour study session, we went to the Hop for ice cream and played both indoor and outdoor kickball. A fine outing with a tie in to Hebrew and its origins in 20111 century as well.

I regret t o a d vise you that they continue to deny service connection for the u lcer . The law provides that service connection can be granted for a n ulcer if diagnosed in service or "properly diagnosed" within twelve months following service . This has long been interpreted as r e quiring a GI series or other appropriate and acceptable medical tests in provi ng the existence of the ulcer within tha t t ime limitations . The evidence which we have does not meet this interpretation . You will receive official notice of this from the VA shortly and sincerely regret a more favorable report is not possible.

Ash.~ville , IJ . C. 2RA04 DPar Hr . Finkelstein : Responding to your l~tter of June 15 , addres~ed to Capt. Best , I can advise you that you r VA e xamination on Augus t 2 , 1950, included a chPst r.out:inc x-ray . The radi ologist inter pceted some of the find inqs us Lhose showing a pcobablc minimal genera li z~~ pulmonary emphysema . This was carried forward as a diagnosis on the examination reporl itsel f, therefore it was necessary for the VA Rating Boaru to dispose of ~he question as t o whether or not this '"'as related to your mil! tary sP_rvice . Service connection was denied as there was no indication of this condition ducing your service . As I tndicoted to you in my letter of June 27 , 1971 , records show your admission to a service hospital , Samar, Phillipines , 1-'.ay 14 , 194S . The r eferrul by your squadron physician was for the purpose of investigating your complai nts of pain in the lower part of your chest . He apparently suspected a heart attack , si nce the hospital r-eport consist of rather thor-ough and complete cardiac e xamination , whi ch chec.'<ed out. comrlt>tely negative . During t he process of this medical investigation , a " c<~tu:-ha l b:-onchi Vs ", or chest cold , was dtagnosed . You was retur ned to duty the following day . These examinations c ontain no complain t s nor findings of any stomach disease and since none of the examination , nor laboratory wo rk concerned the g astro -intes tinal system, I presume that a gastro- intestinal condition was not even su5pected . A gas tric u lcer is sometimes difficult to detect as so many other things can bring on almost identical symptoms . Gen erally speaking , it does not cour over night, and can exist sornetlme without it being recognized for what i t is . The present law administered by the Veterans Administration cecognizes this insidious character and the fact that it can have its beginnit~ in service , but n ot b e recognized until some subse~uPnt date . The law provides a protective period of one year �Mr . Leo Finkelstein A~hcville, N. c. 28804 c 16 017 150 following discharge from service . That is , if a gastric ulcer is diagnosed withi n twelve months following your discharge from service , the law presumes it to have begun during military service , thereby granting service connection . If the condition , however , is diagnosed more than twelve months after service , there is no prot ection and no way under present law that service connection cou l d be granted . Your present compensation of 10% for bursitis and surgical residuals of your right shoulder . It is possible that this condition has gotten worse s ince your last eva l uation . If t his is the case and you can send me a statement of your physician as to the present di sabling factors of your right shoul der , I wi l l be g l ad to file a ny additlonal claims or take whatever action the evidence might justify .
