The words of the mentor have born weight with the pupil. Hitler has taught, Father Coughlin has followed. The Voice of Royal Oak has indulged in an attack on the Jews unsurpassed for its vehemence and utter falseness. The American prince of demagogues, intoxicated with his own words,, is using all the time-proven catchwords and methods to capture popular attention. The advantages of anti-Semitism have become manifest and he has not hesitated to indulge. A recent pamphlet issued by the General Jewish Council points out the baselessness of certain of Father Coughlin's aecusations and reveals the amazing similarity between/an article by Goebbels and a radio broadcast by the hate-mongering priest. His authorities for certain other statements are revealed to be unreliable cranks. Nor is the pamphlet of these.Jewish groups alone in condemning the tactices of Coughlin. The Catholic publication, "The Commonweal," one of the better religious publications, in articles by Monsignor Ryan and Special Editor George Schuster has accused the radio priest of-being a liar. Rev. Birkhead, Kansas City Unitarian minister, charged that by his half truths, Father CougMin has made himself a national menace. More significant than charges by either Jews or Catholics were those Nazi cheers that greeted the mention of Father CoughlinJs name at the Bund meeting in Madison Squqare Garden. At another gathering sponsored by sympathizers of the : Spanish insurgent cause, the names of Coughlin, Hitler, and Mussolini were given the ovation of the evening. In his attempts to undermine the good name of the Jew, he has held them up as an international menace—as though the Catholic church has suddenly become nationalised. To discredit the present administration, he told how a group of international Jews met in September, 1938, in Paris. Attending •were Blum, Litvinov, Bullit and Morgenthau. This statement \ was broadcast to the nation as a fact. Morgenthau was not in Paris in September, 1938. If Blum was there, he had a right to be. It's his home. Bullit, whom Coughlin terms a half-Jew though in reality he probably doesn't have enough Jewish blood to qualify as a non-Aryan even in Germany, is the American ambassador to Paris and also had a right to be in the French capital. As for Litvinov—he is forced around our necks like a red-handkerchief. Cardinal Mundelein has stated that oCnghlin does not speak for the Catholic church. Yet at hearings in Washington, Father Coughlin did appear as a representative of the Church and was given certain privileges. Only in the instance of the ''Commonweal" has the Catholic press raised its voice against the falsehoods disseminated by the Priest—falsehoods gleaned from the notorious "Weltdienst" (which on occasion has aecused the Jesuits and Freemasons with being in league for the destruction of Germany). Surely, no one questions Father CougnUn's inalienable privilege of free speech. His being a priest does not abrogate / .- the right to express himself on injustices. But because he is a priest he has the double-duty of being quite sure of his statements. The priests who spoke for the Spanish loyalists did -not speak very long as priests. We believe the Badio Priest has an obligation to fulfill to a higher destiny than his own ego;

Purim—5699 • . To the distinguished French Jew, Catulle Mendes, the world has'long been indebted for a beautiful story published many years ago entitled, "The Lost Words of Love." In this ;•.-;.; tale an evil fairy, .smarting under some fancied^wrong, took 1 from the memory of men and women the words ' 1 love you." ^Tho ensuing tragedy can be better understood now because an : evil spirit has removed from the world the better sentiments ; that should exist between nations. . Purim is the season when the falseness of injustice and Xhate are realized, and hope fora better world and the eventual triumph of justice reborn. Annually in the press and pulpit at Purim the parallel between Hitler and Haman is drawn. This chronicle of an ancient enemy of Israel is held up as the lesson fo rail of Israel's enemies. Ao Hainan was evil so is Hitler, although alongside Hitler, Haman was only a beginner in the black arts. In the Book of Esther is recorded no such incident as happened last week when, after signing the agreement with the Evian committee that the measures against the Jews would be eased, an order is promulgated demanding the emigration of one'hundred Jews a day or 365,000 Jews a year. A man, a regime, with so little concern for the niceties of human relations can flourish for only so long. He can build his empires as one builds houses of cards. As long as the winds are favorable, the cards will not fall, but one slight breath will brins them tottering. Such precarious conditions.do not build "Greater Germanies" or "greater anything." The forces of evil enjoy their hour—but never for long, the gallows, so Hitler is blind to the fact that the wages of the gallows, so Hitler is blind to the fact that the wage sof sin 'are death.'

A Just Protest The "Canadian Jewish Chronicle" registers a just and honest protest concerning the activities pf Communists here and Communist Russia. "Many are wearied of and, indeed, annoyed with, the tactics pf those Communists who upon this

continent seek to give the impression that they, and they alone are the fighters against Fascism and the saviours of the German refugees. Upon every occasion, they call their mass-meetings, draw up their protest resolutions, and in general issue the propaganda which seeks to impress upon the world at large that in the forefront of the battle aaginst Hitler Germany, will : be found their intellectual kin." . . "It is in the light of this boast that we find the official attitude of Soviet Russia of peculiar significance. For while all enlightened bodies in the various democracies of the world have been carrying on a boycott against the totalitarian states, a boycott which has been so effective as to cause the very moustached maestro to squeal with pain, Soviet Russia has been importing 15 per cent of its imports from Hitleria." Not only has the Soviet Union given material comfort to Germany, but it has likewise entered into trade relations with another of the totalitarian nations, Italy, and between the Soviets on one side and the Fascists on the other there has been ready exchange, particularly of the war materials of which Hitler stands in need. With this in mind the "Chronicle" asks: "Will some loyal Marxist be good enough, therefore, to explain to us by what ideological sophistry the breaking of the boycott is justified on the pa^rt of the Soviet Union? Or is there one standard of action for Stalin, and another for his transatlantic satellites?'

OK NOO

By DR. THEODORE V. LEWIS Babbl, Mount Sinai Temple, Sioux City P R I E S T S AND EROPHETS" JACOB HOSCHANDER. 362 PGS. JEWISH THEOLOGICAL SEWWARY. NEW YORK CITY. This is an heroic but, I fear, unconvincing effort to defend the traditional Jewish point of view regarding the relationship of priest to prophet. Not only Is it unconvincing', but rather astonishing, in view of the radical opinions expressed in the first chapter, where the entire case for religious orthdoxy, Jewish and Christian, is given away. In the initial pages the author admits Judaism to be a religion of syncretism, th.at it borrowed elements of worship and ritual from Canaanites, Babylonians, and others, that the Jahveh religion was an offshoot of Baal worship. Yes, despite this scientific attitude, Dr. Hoschander seeks to establish the thesis that there was little conflict in principle between priest and prophet, that the prophet was not morally superior .to the priest. The priests were as honest and true teachers of Judaism as the prophets. Only their pecular position In the sanctuary, which was in control of the royal family, made it Impossible for them to espouse the cause of righteousness as boldly and uncompromisingly as did the prophets. Doubts as to their sincerity on this score are without basis and justification. The author defends passionately the ceremonial law. He maintains correctly that loyalty thereto need hot necessarily conflict with a high ethical life. It is perfectly true that one may lead an honorable and examplary existence and yet obey unquestioningly all of the six-hundred and thirteen commandments, s u bscribe' to the minutiae of creed and dogma. Yet, how account for the grotesque and common spectacle of sinful and Immoral men, practising punctiliously religious ceremonial, serving faithfully as Pillars of synagogue and church? For well known psychological reasons, obedience to irrational ritual and blind belief in dogma dull the moral sense, sooth and solace an uneasy and sin laden conscience. In charge of the sanctuary and rich beneficiaries thereof the priests conveniently shut their eyes to the guilt, to the social crimes, of those who brought, frequent and expensive gifts. The" prophets, indifferent to this type ,ot bribery, placed all emphasis on justice and ethical conduct, and daringly spoke;of the Temple as a *'den of robbers." The elaborate and artificial temple rites thay riot only ridiculed but denounced because Tthe hands of those who made such services possible "were filled withlblood." It has always

been a mooted question whether

the prophets disapproved of ritual per'se, or because It became an easy substitute for "clean hands and a pure heart." Personally, I am Inclined to the latter view, and agree with the author that the prophets1 denounced the sacerdotal system because it had become a surrogate for goodness.

Because of his enormous sympathy • with the ceremonial and ritualistic in religion, which renders a priestly class indispensable, the author condones the compromises the priests made and their failure to denounce the wickedness of kings and princes in whose sanctuaries they served, on the ground that, had they done so, the religious life of Israel would have come to a complete' stoppage, at the order of the kin^. This is an unworthy apology for compromise and hypocrisy. The same excuse can be offered for those ministers in Germany who have made their peace with Hitler. Are. these not rendering a greater service to religion than Niemoller and his associates, now imprisoned, who refuse to compromise with their convictions, and to espouse Nazi paganism? Had the ancient priests taken their stand with the prophets against the king, a social, political, and moral revolution would have resulted. The religion they gave the people was a narcotic. As the German ministers betray God In serving Nazism, so did the priests betray God, when lacking In courage, they chose the more profitable and more secure path' of surrender to the State. The author tragically misses the majesty of the Hebrew pro-

phets, and fails to grasp the divine essence of the phenomenon of prophecy. Here too, loyalty to the traditional approach and conception leads him to unpardonable fallacy. It is fearfully pathetic for a- great scholar to state that "there 13 no rule by which true prophecy can be distinguished from false," and to pose such an irrelevant question as to whether there "is any criterion for judging the truth of prophetic predictions." The test of a true prophet is very simple. According to Jeremiah, false prophets "speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the Lord' (Jeremiah 23:16.) A true prophet is always loyal to his inner convictions and preaches the Divine word with absolute sincerity, without evasion or compromise, and.with an utter indifference to

personal fate or fortune. He who disregards or violates the promptIngs of the soul and who speaks

as those in power wish him to do is a false prophet, dishonest and cowardly. He is a traitor to God, country, and to self. Failure to grasp .this elemental, and yet so crucial, distinction is amazing. Furthermore, to confuse prophecy with prediction and to think of an Amos in terms of a soothsayer, or a magician, is to outrageously misinterpret prophecy.; Those prophets .of , old had nothing in common with soothsayers and fortune tellers. Being naught but human, they had no more than any other individual knowledge of future events. And when they yielded to the temptation of making specific predictions, they frequently erred. For their power lay hot in foretelling the future, but in boldly and fearlessly preaching love and truth and righteousness, and in championing the cause of the poor and the widow and orphan, to the point of personal danger. Prophecy requires uncommon courage which only a Jeremiah, an Isaiah, or-a Ghandi possess. And prophecy always encounters the blind and. unprincipled opposition of the greedy, tnel aristocratic and the sheltered, those who rejoice in and prosper from the statusquo. If a case can be made for priestcraft, the author makes the best possible one. But even at best, the priests were morally inferior, spiritually beneath the prophets. The two bodies of men lived In opposite religious worlds. The goal of the prophet was fulfillment of the moral law; that of the priest rams and bullocks for the altars —? and himself. The prophets directed their vision on the eternal and the true. The priests preferred the transient and the deceptive, and above all, the security and. power*, rewards meted out to those; who stifle conscience, who conform to the prevailing mores. Though one may reject the fundamental thesis of the book, the book itself will make profitable reading by virtue of its great scholarship and its quite delightful, lucid style. And it always does "one good to read a staunch defense of the traditional point of view, even though it can -not be accepted. Especially Is this true here where tradition is defended with passionate conviction and scholarly equipment;

Reich Editor Says Anti-Hitler Bloc Will Avert War New York (WNS) — Friedrich Stampfer, former editor-in-chief of the German daily Vorwaena in Berlin, declared in an interview here that "an anti-Hitler coalition on the largest possible basis," -was necessary to avoid a war. Mr. Stampfer said that "according to confidential reports which were received from Germany, distrust of Hitler has increased since the annexation of Austria and Sudetenland for two reasons. Ffrst, through the Munich agreement the German people learned how close they were to -war and they don't ivant war. Second, the anti-Jewish riots opened even the eyes of those who

Incline thine ear, and hear the words of the wise, and apply thy heart unto knowledge. TAIiSfUD Politics kills the politician prematurely. One enters the world naked, and naked he leaves it, O, were he but as clean -/hen he goes out as when he came in! If one says, "I'll sin, and the day of atonement will atone for my sins," the day of atonement will bring no atonement for him. Only sins affecting the relation of man to God does the day of atonement for, but Bins affecting the relation of man to his fellow man are.not atoned for by the day of atonement until he appeases his fellow man. Our Babbls were taught: "In three respects is social service greater than charity. 1. Charity is done at the mere sacrifice of money, while social service is performed both with money and personal service. 2. Charity is only for the poor, while social service is for both rich and poor. 3. Charity is only for the living, while Eocial, service is for both the living and the dead. If one studies the law for the sake of knowledge and to teach to others, it becomes a law of kindness. But if he studies only for the'sake of knowledge for himself and not to teach to others, it becomes a law of unkindness.

PHI BETA KAPPA JOINS IN ATTACK ON TOTALITARIANS New York (JTA) — An American "counter-attack" on the dictatorships of Europe for their destruction of culture, true science and intellectual freedom

dictators of Germany, Russia and Italy. He noted that "science and humanity have already suffered too much through the suppression of freedom of inquiry to make any policy of appeasement possible in this field." Prof. Percy W. Bridgman, Harvard physicist and one of the world's top - ranking scientists, served notice in the current issue of Science that nis laboratory at Cambridge is closed to visitors from totalitarian states. The decision was hailed by leading scientists and educators.

Terming the Jews the front-line soldiers apainst the forces of darkness, Dr. Louis Finkelsteln, Provost of the Jewish Theological Seminary, spoke to three hundred persons at a dinner last Snnday evening at the Blackstone Hotel. "There are those who believa the Issue between the enemies of the. Jews and us is merely that of onr personal safety and comfort;' that our opposition to Hitler bt merely a reaction to his enmity to the Jew." "We are being persecuted ftf Hitler and his cohorts not because of what we are, but because of what we stand for. We stand for peace, for liberty, for learning, for human dignity, for the equality of the sexes, for the right. He stands for war, for subjugation* for barbarism, for the annihllatlon of the individual." "His persecution of us is but! the first step In the persecution of all who love the truth, and, who refuse to bow down before the Golden Image of Savagery." Delegates from Des Moines and Lincoln headed by Rabbi Levensf and Rabbi Jolt were also present. Arthur Cohn was toastmas* ter of the evenine. Mrs. J. Blanfc was chairman of the commute* in charge of arrangements. In 1348 the Duke of Grubenhagen issued patents of proteo* tion to the Jews of Goettingen.
