bridges. Israel simply announces its contribution—the
Torah. The other nations depended upon the material and
hate, therefore, fallen, but Israel had as its raison d'etre
the spiritual and is, therefore, a soul-people. Just as the
soul is immortal, so is Israel immortal.
As president of the Union of Orthodox Jewish Con-
gregations of America, I summon the Jews of this country
back to the ancient Orthodox faith. Our faith is ancient
and at the same time modern, just as truth is ever old yet
ever new. Every generation has called itself modern. The
fifteenth century was the modernity of its time and the
20th century is the modernity of our time. Yet the Torah
in its completeness has lived through all these modernities
because it is Truth.
We have departed from the Torah. We have become
fractionally loyal and disloyal. Everywhere throughout
the country, because we wanted to ape our neighbors in
their non-Jewish practices, we have built synagogues, fash-
ioned our homes, conducted our businesses and reared our
children not in accordance with historic, traditional, gen-
uinely loyal, Orthodox Judaism. We, in this country, are
the only section of our people who have permitted imita-
tion, ease and convenience to dominate our lives so flag-
rantly. This is evidenced by the entrance of a third party
in Jewry. In all the countries of the world a Jew is either
loyal or disloyal to the Torah. Now we see the sad spec-
tacle of a conservative party that is neither loyal nor dis-
loyal, forcefully coming to the front and tending to
crumble still more our bread of faith.
The silver lining behind the dark cloud is that a num-
ber of American-born young men are beginning to devote
themselves uncompromisingly to an Orthodox ministry.
Upon them will fall the task of bringing the moral and
ethical duty of complete loyalty to our sons and daughters.
Then, through the saving remnant of the present, there w ill
he revived, with the help of God, a just spirit of loyalty,
All the busyness in constructing synagogues and centers
that are not true and represent disloyalty to the faith is
only a salve to mollify the Jewish conscience. Israel mist
return, and I pray that it will return, of its own accord
rather than be forced by the big stick of the political mas-
ters of the world. The rabbis in the Talmud give the
beautiful but simple illustration of a fowl which has been
sitting in the sand. The master comes and tries to remove
the dirt from its feathers. When the hand of man tries to
clean it, then the feathers and the wings are broken.
When, however, the fowl of itself rustles its feathers and
wings, then, without any hurt to the body, does it become
once more pure and clean. So, in the spirit of the Now
Year, do I say to Israel, our people, that they, of their own
accord, should shake off from themselves the uncleanlin.• s
of imitation and disloyalty anad become pure once again ht
body and soul. The answer as to the future of Jew-r)
America is in Jewry's own keeping.

TALMUD STORY

Rabbi Meir once found it oases-'
! nary to flee from Palestine on account
'of persecutions. He stopped at an ,
inn in Armenia, in which a number
of guests were being served with
pork. Several of them, believing that
, they recognized the fugitive, decided
to put him to the test by seeing
( whether or not he would eat with
, them.
Rabbi Meir seated himself among
the guests and apparently partook of
the food. In reality, however, he
dipped one finger in the dish and car-
ried another one to his mouth.
"It is not Rabbi Melt," they said
among themselves.
His stratagem thus stood him in
good stead and permitted him to
make his escape.
