Jewish Chaplain
(Continued from page 22)
Five days before Christmas, a
representative group of the Jewish
boys in the Depot got together
and by unanimous vote decided to
ask all of their faith to volunteer
for KP and other duties in the
camp on the holiday as a gesture
of appreciation for the consider-
ation given them by their Chris-
tian comrades on the Jewish holy
days. The offer was accepted by
the unit commanders.
That was not an isolated inci-
dent. The same thing happened
elsewhere, in places as widely sep-
arated as the Amarillo Air Base
in Texas, and our headquarters in
the Admiralty Islands.

AID AT HOLY DAYS
IN PLACES WHERE .NO Jew-
ish chaplains were available, Pro-
testant ministers and catholic
priests were zealous that, at the
Jewish holy days, every facility
would be given men of that faith
to observe the days.
In Germany, in the spring of
this year, when our armies were
driving deep into Germany, many
Christian chaplains on the Euro-
pean front were entrusted with
the preparations for the celebra-
tion of the Passover. Reporting
on their work to the Chief of
Chaplains, Chaplain Aaron Dec-
ter, at Headquarters Normandy
Base, wrote:
"I venture to say that each of
the chaplains entrusted with a re-
gional Seder expended more time,
energy and devotion for it than
he did for his own Easter prep-
arations. The devotion exemplified
by my Christian colleagues in
their ministry to the Jewish men
is an experience that will long live
in my memory."

RESTORED UNITY
WE HAVE won a war that in the
last analysis was started by two
fanatical gangs whose only creed
was race hate and whose chief
political weapon was racial and
religious intolerance. We have
purged the world of their menace.
In doing so we have restored a
large measure of human unity and
sanity to the world. And we are
pledged to perfect that unity
through the United Nations Or-
ganization.
That we can do. We Ameri-
cans have proved that unity is pos-
sible on a continental scale. To
prove it possible on a world scale
is a goal worth striving for with
all our will and strength.

isn't the way of Jews in these
times." He was pointing to the
Jewish scene on earth.
Gabriel, Michael and Uric' be-
held Jews running around in cir-
cles and getting nowhere at all.
They heard Jews in angry con-
troversy over politics. There was
the spectacle of Jews furtively
planting bombs to settle a Jewish
problem.
The sole preoccupation of some
Jews was fighting anti-Semites.
The anti-Semites seemed (to Gab-
riel, Michael and Uriel) no more
than flies in a garbage can but
these Jews were fighting them
furiously.
Gabriel, Michael and Uriel me-
ditated upon the confusion.
"Where," asked Gabriel, "is a
Jew whose head is as high as
God?"
"Where," asked Michael, "Is
a Jew who understands the
spiritual and ethical endowment
of being a Jew?"
"Where," asked Thiel," is a Jew
who is serving at the altar rather
than making a speech in the
forum?"

HEARTS SPEAK
YET THERE WERE a lot of
little people, not at all con-
spicuous, who were walking along
in the quiet ways like the way in
which God walked in the cool of
the evening. They had no speech-
es to give out, except what their
hearts spoke.
Their hearts were saying what
the prophet said about the duty
of man to deal justly and to walk
humbly. They were going humbly
with other kinds of people who
were going their way toward the
brotherhood.
Their way of being Jewish was
in the brotherhood of man; they
knew there can be no brotherhood
where the brothers set themselves
apart in separate exclusive com-
panies.
They knew that there can be no
salvation of Jews that was separ-
ate frOm the salvation of man-
kind. Among them walked the
prophet who had spoken about
the people being all God's children
together.
Gabriel, Michael and Uriel dis-
covered these Jews amid the
confusion of Jewry and they
could rejoice as at a saving
remnant and ran to God with
the tidings.
It's no wonder that the Rab-
binical missionaries have Veen
welcomed by Jews in all cities.
The Jews who never ascend to
the speakers' tables are sick and
tired of the brawl in Israel.
TiTey are grateful to be led into
the spiritual ways of Judaism
where there is peace 'of mind and
a re' urn to the lofty place where
a mi an's head is as high as God.
