Pearson of Canada and top figures of the Israel gov- ernment Sunday paid tribute to Allan Bronfman, noted Canadian Jewish leader, who was honored as Montreal's "Man of the Year" at a dinner here sponsored by the Israel Bond Organization. Pearson, who was the principal speaker at the dinner, described Bronfman as a leader "whose en- tire adult career has been marked by service to good causes and to the communities that make up our land." The Canadian prime minister emphasized that Bronfman's record includes service not only to Israel and to the Jewish communities of Montreal and other cities, but to all sections of Canada's popula- tion, English-speaking and French- speaking, Jewish and non-Jewish. Close to $750,000 in Israel Bonds were sold in conjunction with the dinner, which was attended by over 1,000 business, civic and reli- gious leaders.

Traditionalist Suggests Way of Life to Transmit Unique Jewish Values "If you want to see your child live justice, he must see you act justice." A traditionalist rabbi, speaking "not as a rabbi, but as a fellow Jew, a parent," urged his listen- ers to transmit Jewish values to their children as a way of life. "I see," said Dr. Emanuel Rackman, "simple values disappearing be- cause Jews are not living Jewish lives." Dr. Rackman, assistant to the president of Yeshiva University, delivered Wednesday the final lecture in the Midrasha Institute on "Values and Commitments for Our Day." One of those "simple values." the Jewish love of learning, he said, is being forfeited for prac- tical, Western values. "How many parents sit down with their child on a Friday night and study for love of study? .. . If your child told you he wanted to devote his life to learning in a Yeshiva, you'd take him to the doctor." Dr. Rackman also suggested that the value of charity has lost its meaning among the younger generation and that Jewish family life has declined, with an accomp- anying rise in juvenile delin- quency, alcoholism and suicide. "The 'togetherness' of Jewish life is gone," he said, adding that there was more internal security "in the ghetto of the Middle Ages." Even the concept of "mishpa- chah," the hierarchy of kinship, has disappeared, he said. "Jews weren't afraid to become old .. . they were entitled to respect. To- day, old people must pretend to be young" for a place in the family. While the world cherishes many Jewish values, much that is uniquely Jewish is not shared by western civilization, Dr. Backman said. As an example, "How does man use both body and soul to the glorification of God?" He cited the "different element," the spiritually uplifting customs and ceremonies that Jews "added to all sensual gratification." And right to work laws are nothing new, Dr. Rackman con- tends. Citing the Talmud, he said Jews long recognized that "the right to a job is the right to live." He also pointed out that Jewish law emphasizes duty over right, whereas "in western culture, everyone knows his rights, but how many know their duties?" Dr. Rackman mentioned, as a Jewish value, the "deflating atti- tude to state." The idolatry of a nation's sovereignity, he said, is alien to Judaism. "To the Jews it was never so horrible to be a second-rate state." "What was unique about Jewish values was the philosophical vali- dation of these values," he said. "If values are relative (to each civilization)," Dr. Rackman went on, "who would be so foolish as to die for them? The traditionalist says that rightness or wrongness of behavior is not relative, but absolute. "To believe in law and justice isn't uniquely Jewish, but to be- lieve they are the will of God is uniquely Jewish. And the ultimate fulfillment of that absolute is a partnership between man and God."
