Ludwig Lewisohn, Prophet in Israel HIS CONTRIBUTION TO JEWISH LIKE

By HENRY MONTOR

the Jewish problem is intimately interwoven with the Christian problem, The salvation of mankind will come through a combination of Hellenism and Hebraism, is Lewisohn's view, 3ut primarily he is concerned with a renaissance of Hebraism, which will offset the gelatinous quality of Jewish life and counteract the evils <f£ a moribund Christianity.

Because he is a' product of that milieu which he now discusses, because he has been perplexed with those problems which assail American Jews, and because he has been able to transmute the prosy substance of analysis into the poetic fervor of prophecy, Ludwig Lewisohn offers in "Mid-Channel" a healing ointment for the sickness of American Jewry.

PAGE S—THE JEWISH PRESS, FRIDAY, MAY 3, 192D political gesture; they are stirring evidence of the university's dedication, not only to Jewish culture but to the truth, which is for all men.

In its scientific work the university evidences this universal purpose once again; science is so clearly an inrtrument of humanity. Investigating problems related to the health of the people and the natural resources of- their land, the university's department of science reveal their conception of the Jews as fellows, of the oriental peoples and Palestine as the doorway of the greater Near East. Indeed outside of the Hebrew university, little worV is being done.in the Near East in the basic fields of medical research. Two departments have been formed in the medical division of -the university— the department of hygiene, including bacteriology and the institute of microbiology, limited at. present to the department ' of parisitology. Members of these departments have made contributions of hiajor'importance to the science of public health, notably in the control, of malaria and sand* fly fever. The institute of chemistry . has been investigating, among other things, mediterranean red soils and tobacco fermentation.
