Dr. Emanuel Rackman, assistant
to the president of Yeshiva Uni-
versity, will be concluding speaker
in the Midrasha Institute lecture
series 8:15 p.m. Wednesday at the
Esther Berman Auditorium, United
Hebrew Schools.
He will discuss "Values and
Commitments for Our Day: a
Traditional Rabbi's Point of View."
A former president of the Rab-
binical Council of America and
the New York Board of Rabbis
and a former vice president of
the Religious Zionists of America,
Dr. Rackman also is associate pro-
fessor of political science at
Yeshiva U. and spiritual leader of
Cong. Shaaray Tefila, Far Rock-
away, N.Y.
During World War II, Dr.
Rackham was Jewish chaplain
at Army Air Force headquarters,
Washington, and military aide to
the European theater comman-
der's special adviser on Jewish
Affairs. For his work with dis-
placed persons, he received the
Army Commendation Ribbon
with oak leaf cluster.
He holds bachelor of laws and
doctor of philosophy degrees from
Colombia and was ordained at the
Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological
Seminary in 1934. Dr. Rackman
also holds the honorary degree of
doctor of divinity at Yeshiva Uni-
versity.
He is author of "Israel's Emerg-
in Constitution," "Jewish Values
for Modern Man" and Sabbaths
and Festivals in the Modern Age,"
a part of the Yeshiva "Studies in
Torah Judaism." He is contributor
to a number of law reviews as well
as Commentary and other Jewish
periodicals.

"We Jews have been denied
freedom so often, how could we
bring ourselves to deny freedom
to others?" With this observation
on "minority ethics," Dr. Abraham
Kaplan brought out another in his
list of "Values and Commitments
for Our Day" at the Midrasha In-
stitute Wednesday.
Dr. Kaplan, professor of philos-
ophy at the University of Michi-
gan, pointed out that Jews "come
naturally by certain social ideals
of equality. Our God constantly
identifies Himself as the God who
brought us out of the land of
Egypt, . . . who freed us from
bondage."
By way of analogy, he added,
"When two 'Yids' (Jews, - or the
Hebrew letter yod) are side by
side, they spell God." But there is
no word, no godliness, "when one
'Yid' is over the other."
Dr. Kaplan also commented
that "integration which shares
basic rights and opportunities"
has his support, but he de-
nounced integration that would
"melt us all down into a com-
mon culture which lacks char-
acter because of its commonal-
ity."

Courage—moral, not physical—
is "among the classical cardinal
virtues of Judaism," Dr. Kaplan
said. "Throughout history we've
been down but never out."
Later, he urged Jews not to
"condemn ourselves" premature-
ly. "Are we making undue de-
mands on our generation? If our
concern (for Jewish life) is a
genuine one, it will find its
way.
"The great spiritual skill in Ju-
daism is being able to find Jew-

a broader cultural setting. Why
be afraid to associate with non-

He also insisted there is a "tre-

fication among young people, coin-
