Il was brought up at a recent institute of'Reform Theology in the Hebrew Union College In our town. Rabhl Israel Malluck of the Reform iiersuasion in England said; "In world freer thaji the present one from religious preju¬ dices, Judaism may well make many converts and I should readily accept any proselytes who come lo It wilh a sincere desire lo give it their devotion." Rabbi Albert S. Goldstein of Tremont Temple, N. Y., said: "More than all we must propa¬ gate Judaism through active proselytism. Judaism Is no mere tribal cult. It U a universal faith." For myself, were I q rabbi, I wouldn't care to make a pursuit after converts. There are too many competitive religions as It is; too much of religions trying to outsell each other, like drum¬ mers In the refrigerator trade; Itl.Al'HTEIN HONORED BALTI.MORE, (.ITA) -^ Jacob Itlaustein. president of the Am¬ erican .lewish Commitiee. was honored here by the Jewish War Veterans.
