WHOSE PAPER IS THIS?

A Jewish journal, such as the
American Jewish World, does not
really belong to it's publisher or its
editor, or any one actually connected
with, or interested in, it's publica-
ton They may devote great deal
of their thought and labor to it.
But it does not belong to them. 1t
belongs to the community. 1t is a
communal institution, the auxiliary,
assistant and publicity agent of all
other institutions. That is its real
value to the community.
Those who have the interests and
progress of the community at heart,
whose energies are engaged in some
communal activity, institution, or
ganization, or movement, appreciate
it's value. They know what assist
ance they may derive from it. I'm
fortunately there are many Jews in
every community nowadays, whose
Jewishness is only of the nominal
variety, to whom matters of Jewish
