U. N. AGENCY ISSUES BOOKLET ON JEWISH THOUGIIT; JEWISH OONTBIBUTIONS TO SOCIETY ACKNOWLEDQED
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (AJP) - The U. N. Educational Scien¬ tific and cultural organization i UNESCO) has |)ubll8hed a fl'l-page booklet on "Jewiah Thought as a Factor In Civilization." The work, one of a series on "The Race Question In Modern Science," was written specially for this vital U. N. Agency by Leon Roth, a Fellow of the British Academy and a lecturer at the Hebrew University.
The most important aspect of the work Is not the brilliant exposition by Leon Roth, but the statenjent of UNESCO Itself In the Preface, a statement which now becomes the official U. N. position on ttie Jewish question. The following are some of the highlights expressing that position:
"... It was folt that the theory of "Jewish Racism" should not be combated in tho setting/ of Antl- Semittc dialects. Professor Leon Roth's (booklet, therefore, does not deal with race. In asking the au¬ thor to give a short description of Judaism's specific cont^bution to world civilization, we had a double aim in view: firstly, to refute the accusation of "Racism" so often levelled against the Jews, by un¬ derlining what. In Judaism, Is the very negation of racial cxcluslve- ness; and secondly, to record the' extent of tho debt humanity owes to Judaism.
"IT IS NOT the least of the Olt^ustlcies dommlttecd by tho W^est towards tho Jews tbat It haattorr gotten their contribution to that Intellectual and moral heritage of mankind which iVe regard as thu
very essence of our civilization. We cannot of course expect from peo¬ ples the feelings of gratitude that are, under certain circumstances, due from' Individuals; but the idea of "debt" has, all the same, played its part In history. Yet the sam; Christian West has all too often displayed indifference and cruelty when the Jews were going through times of grievous trial. Even today, those whoae Indifference or silence enabled massacres of the Jews to take place set their conscience at rest by accusing 'them of having been the Instrument of their own misfortune, through their own ex- cluslveness and their own racism." The UNESCO iMoklet, which was published at the^aris headquart¬ ers of the Agency, is Bcheduleu for American release during the latter part of June.

I was confirmed in the Temple there and can re¬ member very well how often my dear Dad would bring our Hebrew Union College atudent-rabbis homo to dinner. My dad was one of the founders of the Temple, which was built in 1911.
