The unanimous endorsement which the Zionists of America have given to the World Jewish Congress is one oi the bright spots upon the otherwise sufficiently depressing Jewish scene. It raises the hope that this stiffnecked people may conceivably come to its senses some day. "Whatever hesitation I once had in endorsing the congress movement did not proceed from any doubt of its usefulness or rather, its necessity, as a matter of principle. Not at all. It sprang from the fear i that it would be merely another ! movement, another organization 'or organism and not, as it should be, as it must be in order-to serve ' its high and tragically indispen- j sable purpose, the voice of Israel itself. N O T this~ unanimous endorsement by the Zionist organ-' ization brings at least one step . nearer the realization of my hope that the -world congress -will be some day the representation of universal, of catholic Israel, and thus sum up in itself and bring into vital and effective play the moral power, expressive of the moral solidarity of an undaunfed people.

And so with a solitary voice of no authority -except the authority of its good will, except the authority of its love of (Continued on page 8.)
