biennial convention of the National
Jewish Welfare Board,

Sabbath service, Rabbi Emanuel
Rackman of the Fifth Ave. Svna.
gogue said "our world is quite
mad. The century that made pos-
sible the greatest prolongation of
human life destroyed more tens of
millions of h man beings than any
preceding ce ury. The century
that worships science—fact, proven
data—is more obsessed with myths
and idols than many pagans were
in the past."

mittee of tq JWB, said the Ameri-
can Jewish. community "must do
whatever we can" to improve the
Jewish knowledge of Jews in the
military, "so that when they com-
plete their duty tours and return
to civilian • life they will become
full and active members of the
American Jewish community."
Dr. Eugene B. Borowitz, editor
of Sh'ma and professor of Jewish
thought at Hebrew Union College-
Jewish Institute of Religion in New
York, told the convention that he
foresaw a Jewish cultural explo-
sion in the United States in the
coming decade.
One factor, he said, is "the in-
creased ethnic self-confidence in
the Jewish community," as a re- -
suit of which "a greater propor."

seen in American Jewry, parti-
