Out of Tune? Psalm
Heard to Tune of
Tliristian Soldiers'

Chronicler, writing in the Lon-
don Jewish Chronicle under the
heading "Out of Tune," tells this
interesting story:
"Idly twiddling the knob of
my radio set last Friday after-
noon I suddenly heard some
glorious choral singing in per-
fect Hebrew. The melody was
unfamiliar, but I soon recog-
nized the Psalms which form
the Hallel. The solo parts were
magnificently sung by a cantor.
There was a pause in the sing-
ing while an official recited in
German, in a beautifully modu-
lated voice, a Psalm. I thought
I identified the 116th Psalm.
Then came Hodu sung most im-
pressively by cantor and Choir. At
least, it was impressive until it
came to Even Moasu when the
choir began to sing a tune which.
was vaguely familiar. When I
placed it I was sure my ears had.
deceived me, so I listened with
special concentration to the sec-
and and third verses. No! I was
not mistaken. The tune was
`Onward Christian Soldiers.' The
station was Rias, Berlin."

a member of the Haganah, and,
in 1931, while instructing a class

covering a bomb which exploded
prematurely. The injury resulted

Early Americans Founded
Government on Hebrew Tenets
We neither claim nor -wish to
be understood as inferring that
the structural parts of our form
of government were derived
from what was believed to be
the components of the Hebrew
Commonwealth, bUt only that
this Scriptural model of govern-
ment, which was democratic, as
distinguished from kingly rule,
had a deep influence upon the
founders of our government and
prepared the minds- of the peo-
ple, especially in the New Eng-
land colonies, so that they not
only longed for, but would not
content themselves with any
other form of government than
that form which had the divine
sanction, the government of the
Hebrews under the judges.
Puritans and the Pentateuch
Looking backwards over a
period of nearly 300 years it may
be difficult for us in this age
to understand why the early
Puritans should have gone back
nearly 3,000 years for their form
of government, but we must not
forget the intense religiousspirit
of Puritanism, which was a Pro-
testant renaissance of the Old
Testament and a reversion to
biblical precedents for the regu-
lation of the minutest details of
daily life. They were not content
even to administer justice by
the civil or common law, but
regulated the punishment of
crimes by the Pentateuch, and
in framing their criminal code
every section cited the Biblical
chapter and 'verse.

NEW YORK, (JTA) - A na-
tional conference of teachers of
Hebrew in public high schools
and colleges in eight cities was
held here under the joint aus-
pices of the Hebrew Culture
Service Committee for Ainerican
High Schools and Colleges, the
Hebrew Culture Council of. the
Jewish Education Committee of
New York, and the American
Association of Teachers of He-
brew in the Public Schools.
The conference was devoted
to the problem of coordinating
the instruction of Hebrew at
junior and senior high levels.
Judah Lapson, chairman of the
Hebrew Cultural Service Com-
mittee and director of the He-
brew Culture Council, reported
that 71 public secondary schools
in 12 American cities were -now
offering Hebrew as a modern
language.
He also said that 10 New York
colleges offered Hebrew courses.
Other .reports revealed the pro-
gress of Hebrew in the schools
over the last 25 years, a period
which saw a decline in language
study in high schools and col-
leges.
A citation of honor was pre-
sented to Prof. Joseph Pearl,
chairman of Classical Lan-
guages • and Hebrew at Brooklyn
College, by Rabbi Abraham M.
Heller, founding member of the
Hebrew Culture Service Com-
mittee, who paid tribute to Prof.
Pearl for his pioneering in the
establishment of Hebrew at.

An AJP Tercentenary Feature

the development of our form of
government, to leave out of ac-
count the ecclesiastical side,
freedom from Lords-bishop as
well as from Lords-temporal, is
to overlook not only imporant
but essential elements. In the
resolution whic71 led to the first
meeting of the Continental
Congress, passed by the House
of Representatives of Massachu-
setts Bay on June 17, 1774; ap-
pointing Samuel and John
Adams, Thomas Cushing, Rob-
ert Treat Paine, and James
Bowdoin, a committee to meet
delegates and representatives
from the other colonies at a
congress to be held in Phila-
delphia the following Septem-
ber, the reasons recited for
such actions were "to deliber-
ate and determine upon wise
and proper measures, to be by
them recommended to all the
Colonies for the Recovery and
Establishment of their Just
Rights and Liberties Civil and
Religious."
In devising the plan of -our
government, the founders not
only drew their inspiration from
first sources but reverted to
first principles, the "unalien-
able rights" of man. They
built well on a - broad a n d
lasting foundation, and to their
wisdom and foresight we owe
the blessings of liberty we en-
joy. Freedom of person, freedom
of conscience, and a republican
form of government constitute
the creed of our political faith,
and they alone can insure for
us and our posterity liberty,
happiness, and stability. •
