SCHULMAN ON CONVERTS
Rabbi Says Emscopalians Should
Not Try to ProseIyte Jezcs.

RABBI Samuel Schulman delivered a sermon
yesterday morning at Temple Beth FL on the
topic Ought Religious Communities Attempt
to Convert Each Other?' In the course of his
address he referred to a recent resolution
wherein the Episcopal Church was urged to
carry the Gospel to the Jews OF New York on
the ground that they were losing their faith.
Rabbi Schulman said in part:
The passage that I read from the prophet
Micah might be said to be the classical express
sion of the Jewish idea of missionary and con-
version work. You will observe that the prophet
does not intimate that Israel shah make Jealous
efforts to win the nations with the truth re-
vealed on the mountain of the law, but that.
on the other hand. Israel, speaking through It's
prophet has supreme confidence that the light
that arose Mount Zion and the light that
arose upon Mount Sinai is destined to food the
whole world, and that the time will come when
the nations of their own accord, will stream TO
the mountain of the Lord In the mean time
