Look to Their Future

Nowadays, every healthy man can provide
for his wife and children "as long as he
lives—and longer." How much "Longer"
is determined by the amount of life insur-
ance he holds in companies like The Great
West Life.

In looking to the future of your loved ones
—and to your own future after retirement
age—it will pay you to see what this great
Company has to offer. You will be sur-
prised how small an outlay will provide
life insurance to meet your needs. Let me
give you details.

renowned author of "Songs of
Wanderer" and "Songs and
Dreans" now turns a multi-color-
ed lantern on his muse and the
result is a collection of little glow-
ing poems varying in intensity
and depth. Raskin allows his
fancy to wander freely and it
strikes rhythmically and musically
on a variety of persons and things.
Now and then we get glowing ef-
fects; sometimes, mere glints of
light; at times an angry flash only
to be followed by a soft, soothing
ray. Raskin's lantern lights up
the world he lives in to make it
more significant and appealing to
his readers.
The book is divided into four
sections: (1) Dusk and Dawn,
dealing with nature; (2) Out of
the Depth, dwelling on personal
philosophy; (3) The Selves that
are I, describing the nationalist
element in the poet, and (4)
Moods and Moments, hinting of
love and romance.
The poet's deep and reverent
love of nature is describe in

"UNION"
"A single crystal drop of

The limpid mother joins her

The golden grain meets his

And we have the Land.

A human being, then an-

Then more and still more;
And brother recognises

And we have War!"

Most alive and stirring are his
poems touching on people and
events affecting Jewish life, such
as "A Jew to Hitler," "Moses
ben Maimon," "Henrietta Szold."
Angrily Raskin turns to the
brown-shirted demagogue whose
ill fame is spread throughout the
world and says in

"A JEW TO HITLER"
"Hitler, I shall outlive you,
As the Pharaoh's and Hamann
before you;
May hordes of slaves acclaim
you chief,
And throngs of fools—adore
you."

Warming up to his theme he
goes on to proclaim:

"I am the deathless son of the
earth,
Life is my heaven-signed
charter;
And what is another auto?da.fe,
To • race—an eternal mar-
tyr?"

the gaps in the young and nascent
industries in these countries. At
present a few of these countr ea
are making efforts to become finan-
cially independent, but whether
their initial success will becom e
permanent it is too early to say.
Most of these Latin American re-
publics still feel the need for fresh
capital; at a recent League of Na-
tions committee session, indeed, a
South American representative
made it clear that the lands of
that continent would need outside
funds to finance any large immi-
gration.
While the possibilities of South
American immigration must not
be regarded with exaggerated
optimism, it is none the less true
that opportunities exist there, and
that in these times when most of
the world is barred to further im-
migration, for reasons largely un-
connected with the Jewish question
—the most must be made of every
opportunity. Indications of an in-
creased Jewish migration move-

unmistakable, and as far as Ger-

Community Merger
Under the leadership of the J.
W. B., mergers of YMIIA's, YW-
HA's and other organizations with
similar objectives took place with
great rapidity. Within two years
such mergers were effected in 63
communities, with a view to es-
tablishing active community cen-
ters and centers of Jewish life in
accordance with the ideals of the
movement. Gradually these groups
enlisted the support of the more
prominent people in the commun-
ity and became community-wide
in scope, with respect to both pro-
gram and purpose. The program
was widened to include all age
groups and sexes and the pro-
vision of educational and recrea-
tional activities to meet the vary-
ing needs of all members of the
Jewish family. The objective of
the movement became the devel-
opment of a consciously Jewish
group-life, which at the same time
is properly integrated in the life
of the community. Although a
number of societies retain the
name YMI1A, YWIIA or kindred
titles, for reasons of tradition, or
provisions in their corporate char-
ters, they function with very few
e xceptions as Jewish community
centers for men and women, boys
and girls. The center Is not
merely another Jewish institution
In the community, but rather a
centrallizing agency t h r o ugh
which the entire Jewish commun-
ity may express itself culturally.
Under the leadership of the J.
W. B. the movement has expand-
ed tremendously. Today there
are 318 organizations affiliated
with the board, with a member-
ship of 350,000 adults, young men
and women, boys and girls. Build-
ings are owned by 220 associa-

ment has impressed itself upon
the American Jewish scene. There
is hardly a city or town with Jew-
ish residents that does not have
one. The center has come to be
regarded as necessary to Jewish
living in the community. It pro-
vides for the leisure of young and
old, for the meetings and activi-
ties of all types of Jewish groups,
for Jewish education of the chil-
dred and frequently for religious

center, in its positive Jewish phil-
osophy and program, has encour-
aged them to look to the center
for effective leadership in the
larger area of Jewish communal
life and organization. In the
center, people of varying opin-
ions and interests have learned
to work together for common
purposes and the experionce thus
gained is increasingly being util-
ized in the solution of other com-
munal problems and the building
up of a comprehensive program of
communal activity. The center
has indeed never assumed that
its activities should be confined
to the program that could be car-
ried out in the four walls of its
structure. It viewed the whole
Jewish community as its field of
useful service and it is only nat-
ural that people should turn to
this proven and tried instrumen-
tality to point the way to a bet-
ter ordered plan of communal or-
ganization.
