Commencing next week a new column will
salute outstanding Jews whose achievements through
the ages have enriched the social, cultural and
scientific composition of the world. Discover the men
and women whose pioneering leadership in all
disciplines give us reason for pride in ourselves as a
people.
They are many -- the scientists, healers,
writers, educators, scholars, inventors and others to
whom we are indebted.
. For two-thousand years, we have told and
retold accounts of the brutalities and banishments
from countries which Jews served loyally, creatively
and productively. Yet we have told all too little of the
accomplishments of our kinsmen in every field of
human endeavor. Despite the importance of their
contributions some may be virtually unknown
We intend to help correct that omission in the
spirit of our geographic cultural chain that spans
three-thousand years of Jewish history and touches
every enlightened country.
Recent links in our historic chain are Jewish
Nobel Prize Laureates who have won almost 21% of
the 663 Nobel Prizes awarded from 1902 to 1995--
although Jews constitute less than one-quarter of one
percent of the world's population.
Jewish scientists have continued to make
enormous strides in physics, chemistry and particularly
in medicine during modern times. The values and
evolutionary ideas common to these and other
prominent Jews have helped insure the health, culture
and harmony of future times--for us all. You will
meet them in forthcoming issues of The Jewish News.
Our columns will also announce several free
book offers to complement our profiles of people who
have earned notable records of service to humankind.
- Saul Stadtmauer

"A modern Jew is the descendent of a people which
developed human consciousness and the moral code, modem
science and progressive technology. We Jews had a
superior culture and civilization at a time when most other
nations were primitive savages, or did not even exist."
- From a letter to President Charles DeGaulle by noted
French mathematician, Jacques Bergier, protesting anti-
semitic institutions emerging in the nation. Professor
Bergier was credited with helping sabotage Hitler's atomic
weapons program and was cited as a war hero by Winston
Churchill.
