As the convention comes at a
critical hour for Judaism and the
Jewish people, its debates, reso-

What Weizmann said about Zionism, Palestine,
the Histadruth, is also applicable to himself. The
spirit of youth predominates in his addresses.
The strength of the pioneers is in his words,
and in his inspiring calls to action. The human
spark which distinguishes his leadership comes
to the fore by virtue of his being the very per-
sonification of the wit and wisdom of his people.

"Judaists": A Classic Headline

•The classic headline of the year will be found
on the church page of the April 12 issue of the
Detroit News. It reads:
1,500 JUDAISTS
WILL CONVENE
National Temple Groups
Also to Meet
For your information, "Judaists" are supposed
to be Jews, and the story dealt with the forth-
coming convention of the Union of American
Hebrew Congregations and its affiliated groups.
But don't hold this "classic" against the News.
The man who edits its church page—Henry
George Hoch—is one of the ablest church editors
in the land, and 'tis human to err even when
Jews suddenly become Judaists.
