¦ NliW; YORK (WNS)—Newspaper men throughout the world are molirning the sudden death of Louis Wi.ley, who as. business manager of the Nciv York Times fur twenty-nine years stood shoulder to shoulder with Adolph S. Ochs. in recon¬ structing the A'^r^t' York- Times from a derelict and moribund sheet into the coun¬ try's best Itnown newspaper and who during his notable career became one of the most written about and talked about men in Americain journalism. Born in Hornell, Nevv Y^rfe, sixty-six years ago, Wiley, started his newspaper career as a reiiortcr in Fort Wayne, Indiana'^ when he was sixteen. At the age of eighteen he wag on .the staff of the Rochester-Post 'Express. In the year he joined this paper he started the Tidings, an Anglo-Jewish weekly. Although this paper made money, hc sold .it when he was twenty-four in order to become, business manager of the Post-Express. ¦ . ,
¦ In-1895 he left Rochester, to jbin the Nctu York Sun. The following year he met Adolph S. Ochs,who had bought the moribund TiViej. Ochs gave hini a job and years later said that was^ the biggest biargaiti he ever made. Within ten years he was business manager. Wiley's broad cohccution of what a newspaper should be made him a valuable ally of Ochs. To¬ gether tlie two meii. built up the paper to its present position of international eminence. ". Although he, was business manager, Wile/s catholicity of interests made hini world-famous.' He was a bril¬ liant speaker and active ih innumerable communal movements. He was decorated by virtually, every country of' Europe.
. \ Few: men in America knew more fa¬ mous persons than Wiley. He was the friend of presidents, kiiigSi merchants, intellectuals, and bankers. Gifted wUh a. shrewd business sense as well-as journal:- istic talent, he devoted the best years of his life to the Times. Without stint he worked t& make the Times, vvhat it is today. H'is voluminous correspondence with the great and hear-great, his contacts vvith important people everywhere and his personal interest in many public affairs ¦were a-ijournajistic .Wadition.-,. A^ indefatigable ihdtistry, he never rtiarried/ his only love being the Tiiiies which in many respects is as much a monument to his genius as it is to that of Adolph S. Ochs.' .:. .¦ ....

WASHINGTON, D. C. (W;NS)— ¦: Empbasing that the synagogue is not or-'/ ganizcd for political'pr economic action, Di-; David Lefkowitz of Dallas, Texas, a. former [Jresident of the Central Confer- , ence of American Rabbis, warned the delegates.to the 34th Council of the,Union ol American Hebrew Congregations that the synagogue must guard against any¬ thing or any action savoring of politics. Addressing the closing business ¦ session, Dr. Lefkowitz Meclarcd that "the syna- . gogue is organized to .foster the spirit of religion,' it is not organized, as a machine to tinker here or tliere in the repairs of, other parts of the human mechanism," At the banquet which marked the close of the session, Judge Irving H. Lehiriaii of New York,asserted that he did not fear the spread of Nazi doctrines in this coun¬ try because "this nation was fofmed in a spirit of love and freedom and of equal. justice., The triiest service which its citizens can give this country is throiigh the prcservationof that.spirit. There lies . the future of Judaism in this country." ¦
Urging measures to strengthen the in¬ fluence .of the synagc/gue in the lives of. those who remiiin.true to it, Judge Leh¬ man said, "we must broaden its activities, as the. activities of the modern Jew Have also broadened" and make Judaism "truly , the way of life of Jews here," for ."only in that way can the Anieriean Jew fitly serve.his people, his,country, his God." Hti also declared that ailthough "Jews, shared in .the glory which was Germany's" they *'have no share in the shame which is Germany's today." The ideals of lib¬ erty, of justice and of brotherhood Ihat have been-the tradition and heritage of . the Jewish religion, haye beeh the cause of the Jews' disfranchisement in Germany today. Judge Lehman asserted. "In un¬ conscious tribute to the beauty and feternal truth of Judaism, in unconscious tribute . to the spirit of the Jews of Germaiiy, the. leaders of.the Nazi group have recognized that ag&inst doctrines such as these, , against, a system of government sucli as they proposed ^.tp establish, rtrjie JeWs iwould protest forever, and the inpre dfiilly a: Jew ioved'iiia to\inli;yy.ii« ,irioT«,;;:, intense and courageous siich protest.wbuld be," Judge Lehman said. "The badge of shame which the Nazis.have fried to pin upon our brethren has become a badge of honbi"."
Obviously referring to the recent pro¬ nouncements by many rabbis;,especially! meinbers of the Reform rabbinate, on questions of social justice, Dr Lefkowitz sounded a vwarniiig "against beirig in¬ veigled into economic doctrinaire move^ ments."', . Pointing ; out that great and recognized economic experts are iu utter disagreement as to definite, cufe-alls, he said "it were the better wisdom for the synagogue to withhold . its opinions ,on, details of. the economic,, systern and .to eschew economic dogmatism." Frederick L. Guggenheimer of New York expressed a different point of view when he said that Judaism is a religion based on ,,the philosophy of the prophetsarid'thatmem- ., bers thereof must concern themselves with moral and economic issues. Fear, he saidi is the worst enemy 'o.f the Jews today. Rabbi Louis Wolsey of Philadel¬ phia declared that "Judaism canriot live without the Jews" and added that the future of the Jews is in their religion. He also predicted that "the future of Judaism is not in the hands of those who bring pressure upon pur liberty; or oiir liveli¬ hood" but "it ia entirely oiir own respcinsi- bility. Judaism may live in spite of opp^ssprs who, while they oppress, glibly talk of charity and religion; or wHo say that alienism must be destroyed in the United Slates; meanwhile allying them¬ selves with the alienism of Friends of the New Germany."

Ochs. in recon¬ structing the A'^r^t' York- Times from a derelict and moribund sheet into the coun¬ try's best Itnown newspaper and who during his notable career became one of the most written about and talked about men in Americain journalism. Born in Hornell, Nevv Y^rfe, sixty-six years ago, Wiley, started his newspaper career as a reiiortcr in Fort Wayne, Indiana'^ when he was sixteen. At the age of eighteen he wag on .the staff of the Rochester-Post 'Express. In the year he joined this paper he started the Tidings, an Anglo-Jewish weekly. Although this paper made money, hc sold .it when he was twenty-four in order to become, business manager of the Post-Express. ¦ . , ¦ In-1895 he left Rochester, to jbin the Nctu York Sun. The following year he met Adolph S. Ochs,who had bought the moribund TiViej. Ochs gave hini a job and years later said that was^ the biggest biargaiti he ever made. Within ten years he was business manager. Wiley's broad cohccution of what a newspaper should be made him a valuable ally of Ochs. To¬ gether tlie two meii. built up the paper to its present position of international eminence. ". Although he, was business manager, Wile/s catholicity of interests made hini world-famous.' He was a bril¬ liant speaker and active ih innumerable communal movements. He was decorated by virtually, every country of' Europe. . \ Few: men in America knew more fa¬ mous persons than Wiley. He was the friend of presidents, kiiigSi merchants, intellectuals, and bankers. Gifted wUh a. shrewd business sense as well-as journal:- istic talent, he devoted the best years of his life to the Times. Without stint he worked t& make the Times, vvhat it is today. H'is voluminous correspondence with the great and hear-great, his contacts vvith important people everywhere and his personal interest in many public affairs ¦were a-ijournajistic .Wadition.-,. A^ indefatigable ihdtistry, he never rtiarried/ his only love being the Tiiiies which in many respects is as much a monument to his genius as it is to that of Adolph S. Ochs.' .:. .¦ ....

' Rememl>er to reserve May 19, the date set fpr the Hebrew School graduation supper. Sylvan Dalsiniiery Father of Mrs* Max Rieser, Passes at 92 WASHINGTON, D. C. (W;NS)— ¦: Empbasing that the synagogue is not or-'/ ganizcd for political'pr economic action, Di-; David Lefkowitz of Dallas, Texas, a. former [Jresident of the Central Confer- , ence of American Rabbis, warned the delegates.to the 34th Council of the,Union ol American Hebrew Congregations that the synagogue must guard against any¬ thing or any action savoring of politics. Addressing the closing business ¦ session, Dr. Lefkowitz Meclarcd that "the syna- . gogue is organized to .foster the spirit of religion,' it is not organized, as a machine to tinker here or tliere in the repairs of, other parts of the human mechanism" At the banquet which marked the close of the session, Judge Irving H. Lehiriaii of New York,asserted that he did not fear the spread of Nazi doctrines in this coun¬ try because "this nation was fofmed in a spirit of love and freedom and of equal. justice., The triiest service which its citizens can give this country is throiigh the prcservationof that.spirit. There lies . the future of Judaism in this country." ¦ Urging measures to strengthen the in¬ fluence .of the synagc/gue in the lives of. those who remiiin.true to it, Judge Leh¬ man said, "we must broaden its activities, as the. activities of the modern Jew Have also broadened" and make Judaism "truly , the way of life of Jews here" for ."only in that way can the Anieriean Jew fitly serve.his people, his,country, his God." Hti also declared that ailthough "Jews, shared in .the glory which was Germany's" they *'have no share in the shame which is Germany's today." The ideals of lib¬ erty, of justice and of brotherhood Ihat have been-the tradition and heritage of . the Jewish religion, haye beeh the cause of the Jews' disfranchisement in Germany today. Judge Lehman asserted. "In un¬ conscious tribute to the beauty and feternal truth of Judaism, in unconscious tribute . to the spirit of the Jews of Germaiiy, the. leaders of.the Nazi group have recognized that ag&inst doctrines such as these, , against, a system of government sucli as they proposed ^.tp establish, rtrjie JeWs iwould protest forever, and the inpre dfiilly a: Jew ioved'iiia to\inli;yy.ii« ,irioT«,;;:, intense and courageous siich protest.wbuld be" Judge Lehman said. "The badge of shame which the Nazis.have fried to pin upon our brethren has become a badge of honbi"." Obviously referring to the recent pro¬ nouncements by many rabbis;,especially! meinbers of the Reform rabbinate, on questions of social justice, Dr Lefkowitz sounded a vwarniiig "against beirig in¬ veigled into economic doctrinaire move^ ments."', . Pointing ; out that great and recognized economic experts are iu utter disagreement as to definite, cufe-alls, he said "it were the better wisdom for the synagogue to withhold . its opinions ,on, details of. the economic,, systern and .to eschew economic dogmatism." Frederick L. Guggenheimer of New York expressed a different point of view when he said that Judaism is a religion based on ,,the philosophy of the prophetsarid'thatmem- ., bers thereof must concern themselves with moral and economic issues. Fear, he saidi is the worst enemy 'o.f the Jews today. Rabbi Louis Wolsey of Philadel¬ phia declared that "Judaism canriot live without the Jews" and added that the future of the Jews is in their religion. He also predicted that "the future of Judaism is not in the hands of those who bring pressure upon pur liberty; or oiir liveli¬ hood" but "it ia entirely oiir own respcinsi- bility. Judaism may live in spite of opp^ssprs who, while they oppress, glibly talk of charity and religion; or wHo say that alienism must be destroyed in the United Slates; meanwhile allying them¬ selves with the alienism of Friends of the New Germany."
