The Eternal Fire
.•ONCLUDED CROSS EDITORIAL PARIS
of the theoretical conception of the world and
of the meaning of life us experience and ob-
servation had presented these to thinking men
every step of the way. . . . In the place of the
merciless, inexorable grinding of the Wheel of
Fortune with its humiliation, slavery and endless
suffering in body and soul for the millions, in
order that but a few, a handful in each genera-
tion, might taste power, affluence and happiness,
Judaism held out the hope of a new and juster
dispensation in the future. Therewith it broke
not only the vicious chain of fatality, which had
weighed as an ineffable burden upon antiquity,
it also dared to advance the affirmation, be it by
implication, that the most sacred thing in this
world is not the existing order, but that the sense
of life and history lies in the constant replace-
ment of one order by another. Not change in
itself is the highest good, but change alone can
pave the way for and to a new ideal. In reveal-
ing the changeability of phenoMena, Judaism
therefore may be said to have established the
changeability of social relationships.
To me as time went on there became visible
on an unbroken line running from the Burning
Bush, where the deepest meaning of life revealed
itself to Moses as an unwavering obedience to
the voice that calls, to the ever-widening vision
of a human brotherhood by the Prophets, to the
Reformation, the Content Social, the Declaration
of the Rights of Man and ultimately to the mod•
ern socialist conception of the City of God. That
line indicated a constantly enlarged conception
of the destiny of man. That line goes back to
Sinai and in our time vibrates as a living force
in the islands of socialism which have been cre-
ated by the Histadruth in Eretz Israel. Those
kvutzoth are the children of the old messianic
hope. For messianism, to my way of thinking,
represents the strongest motif-power in history
which gathered double momentum front the no-
went that a teacher in Israel, giving expression
to the sentiments of a Jewish religious school
of his day, placed the infinite value of every
soul in the center of all moral experience. There
you have the spiritual dynamite of Judaism
which undermines all the laws of "this world"
and which has furnished the strongest impulse in
the social transformations of the last 2,000 years.
The Revolutionary Prophet
The historical materialists, who belittle or
totally reject the revolutionary impulse of reli-
gion in history, have countered with the bitter
but unavoidable slogan about religion as an
opium of the people. This rests upon a con-
fusion of religion with what it has become in
the hands of a privileged class which preaches
resignation and submission to the unprivileged
in order to remain in the unhindered enjoyment
of their own privileged position. In that way
the doctrine of resignation has become a lie
and an instrument of the vilest egoism. Reli-
gious resignation is not that of the unprivileged
to abide for all time by the existing state of
things and to abdicate all claims to human
rights: It is an understanding on the part of the
now-privileged that their position of advantage
is neither sacred nor of lasting character.
The prophet—and only Judaism has given us
prophets—is active, militant and demands that
spiritual values be translated into reality, that
they be made flesh and blood and take embodi-
ment in an attitude toward life and in human
relations. The prophet does not compromise. He
formulates unconditional demands—let your yea
be yea and your nay, nay. Ile stands in constant
high tension to his people: because he loves them
tie lashes them; because he wants to see them
great hr belittles them. He turns in the first
place against petrified tradition, against the rigid
immobile forms of a cult of which the priest is
the guardian. The priest seeks to guard the
continuity of religion, even when the sense of
it has been lost to the people. That is his resig-
nation. But the prophet is the revolutionary
who breaks with the fossilized forms of life:
"Away with the melody of your viols! I will not
regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts..
Of what value are they when the one thing is
lacking, when justice does not flow like water and
righteousness as a mighty stream?" The prophet
tolerates no treason to ultimate values. He will
not hear of compromise. That is why the corn-
promise-makers, the politicians, the kings, the
priests, so often have him removed. Yet he does
not ask for personal salvation. What matters
his life, if only the eternal value of the kingdom
is served? What if his own life is burned up in
restless striving, if only the fire of God burns
in this world?

What a tremendous thing when a man can
say—straight into the face of the mighty of the
world, contrary to his own private interest and
personal profit, too, here stand I, in the name of
God. You may acorn me with your derision, you
may laugh nie away with your pity, you may even
take my life—nevertheless, here I stand in God's
name. 1 did not will this; I did not seek this;
I have sought to ecsape it as an insane pride
that 1, little man, should testify of God's great-
ness and of His right over as in this world; I
have turned my face away in great fear when
the voice came to me. Nevertheless here I stand
in His name!
All things beat His sign; the flower in the
field is the work of His fingers, the stars in the
deep nocturnal firmament turn around Him; man
is His creature that can praise Him with his life.
For in us burns' His fire and His spirit drives
us to the service of righteousness on this earth,
to announce peace among the peoples, to build
it community of brethren as a house where the
Eternal may dwell, as a holy temple where His
spirit may sojourn.
Are not the millions of the poor and desolate,
the downtrodden and the destitute your brothers;
how can you live and utter the name of God and
not serve justice which is the reflection of God
among men? Here I stand—in the name of
God,—you who feed on the sufferings of the mis-
erable, who grow rich on the poverty of the
oppressed; you, who arm yourselves to murder
your brothers, who exploit the world in a slavery
of money— and who declare your own right
thereto sacred—the world in a slavery of money
—and who declare your own right thereto
sacred—against you and your system I preach the
revolt, the sacred revolt of Love. I will not rest
till the people have been awakened in the name
of freedom and in the name of
highest love.
When I go out to battle, yea, when I go under
in the struggle, I will yet call out: "People-
-fight yourself free .. , The fire of God burns
and Ills flames are the flames of freedom!"
What a tremendous thing when a man can
say honestly: here I stand in the name of God!
So stood and stand the true Prophets!

STRAIGHT FROM THE
SHOULDER
The World at Your Elbow
Float any telephone of this com-
pany you can talk not only to booth-
ties throughout Michigan, but also
to distant cities, ships at sea, many
foreign lands—to thirty million tele-
phones distributed all over the
world. You can do this because the
Michigan Bell Telephone Company
is ■ component part of the Bell
System.
In addition to wider service, that
relationship enables us to give you
better service; for it places at our
disposal thousands of valuable pat-
ents and the most efficient methods
of operation; it secures for us the
benefits of constant research by hun-
dreds of scientists in the famous Bell
Laboratories, specialists whose only
mission year in and year out is to
develop means of improving the ser.
vice — to find "a better thing or
better way." It assures us assistance
in financing; it provides us
with the world's finest tele-
phone equipment, produced
by the Western Electric Company,
manufacturing division of the Bell
System. It permits us, in short, to
share in every progressive step in
the evolution of the telephone.
And it enables us to render
cheaper service; for all these assets
—the fruits of a long-sustained
policy of good management— come
to Wunder our contract with Ameri-
can Telephone and Telegraph Com-
pany at a cost much lower than
would be possible without our asso-
ciation in the Bell System.
America today holds undisputed
world supremacy in telephonic com-
munication. That leadership grew
out of the facilities and the forward-
looking policies of the Bell System.
And it is because the Michigan
Bell Telephone Company is a part
of that system that we are now sup-
plying the people of this State with
a service never surpassed in
quality, and reaching to Moat
civilized areas of the globe.

Thirty Million Miles
of Ford Economy
Mon scars. Faster miles. Greater economy ... that
is the story of the Ford V-8. There are conclusive fig-
urea horn owners to show that it is the most economical
Ford car over built.
A particularly interesting and complete report of
costs comes from a national fleet owner who has owned
854 Ford cars which have run more than thirty million
miles in business use.
175 were Model T Fords which were run 5,017,075
miles. 599 were Model A Ford cm-s which were run
24,041,632 miles. 80 are Ford V- 8 cars which have been
run 2,982,886 miles.
This owner's cost records show that Ford V-8 cars
cost 12% less to operate than the Model A Fords and
31% less than the Model T Fords. And they covered
more miles per month) The monthly average for the
Model T Fords was 1509 miles.. . . For the Model A
Fords. 1866 miles.... And 2571 miles for the Ford V-8.
Each year the Ford car gives you more in value and
performance and costs you less to operate.
