TIIE WORLD WIDE LEAGUE OF
RELIGIONS DISCUSSED BY DIR.
HENRY BERKOWITZ.

The Rev. DIR. Berkowitz. of Phila1
delphia. addressed notable session
Of the National Conference of Re-
llgiOus Liberals. The conference was
held at Kennett Square, Pa. Once n
year for over fifty years similar
meeting has been held there, under
the auspices of the Longwood Meet
ing of Friends. Such men as Theo-
dore Parker. William Lloyd Garrison
and their co-workers Were wont to
gather at this quaint assembly. Last
Sunday most notable representation
of men and women from all parts of
the United States had come together.
They were in session for two days.
The topic of the program in which
DR.. Berkowitz took part was THE
sympathy of the Religions" His spe-
cial theme. a Worldwide League of
i,cligions." DIR. EerkOwitz declared his
conviction that all the efforts to ANAL
Sanate religions had been and always
would be doomed to failure. He based
his conviction on the fact that God
has created men of diverse races and
tongues and has endowed them with
varied gifts; consequently. altho Truth
is one. the apprehension and express
sion of truth cannot but vary among
men. This explains why. altho relig-
ion is one religions are many.
1t is absurd to pursue further any
\ Worldwide league of religions cisn
and must be effected. but II new pro
gram is needed. This program must
aim not at uniformity of creed and OF
worship. but at unity of pction Rc-
ligions must abandon the scandalous
evil which has marred their history
OF rivalry. bgotry and persecution.
J he war clearly revealed the possibil-
| ity of practical fraternal co-opera'
tian of various organized religions. III
the Welfare, War Chest. Red Cross
and other work. Along these lines
must lie the future enieurors out OF
which will evolve others thru the NUT
val respect and sympathy of religions
for each others sapctities, II rea.
league of worlds religions.
DIR. BcrkOwitZ presented definite
I roposal in the form of resolutions.
The chairman of the Resolutions
Committee. Mr.. Bisbee. of Boston, pro
posed their adoption in a speech oi
warm approval.
Mrs. Anna Garlin Spencer IN beau
tiful and eloquent words. seconded INT
Ltotion, expressing her condemha tiol
of the shame which had been brotei
upon the religions by the prosecutor
Of the Jews. but voicing her warm
hearted appreciation of Jewish ieader
ship in religions today as thruout th'
centuries.

Saul's shame

And ached for the breasts of Bath

And here the prophet assailed him,
his words an avenging knife.

Wandered in luminous dreams the
Shadowing Valley of Death.
And looked up into the hills, misty
with Gods white breath.
Here. in the fire of sunsets, completing
all his days.
His harp lay close against his heart,
and in infinite ways
He sang the eternal Elohim and gave
Him constant praise.
And here the troubled. the suffering,
tlirsting the Word which calms.

Halted and hr,shed for blessed space

Had gathered away into silence. and
the land lay cool with sleep,
The Shepherd King watched over
Israel, and his watch was kingly

Have dimmed entirely the hue
Of its old pompous dress.

every story is Il quaint echo of the
past and good many of them have
Il poetic quality. Notice may specially
ne made of THE Old Shufar," Born
..gainH Before Dawn THE Tren-
dele" THE Cliildren's Gift" "a Voice
for Freedom a Rabbits Wife" On

The. stories are chiefly associated
with the Sabbath and holiday atmos-
phere and with certain problems of
Jewish life in its American environ
ment. which is no more shifting to the
present generation than it appeared
years ago.
These stories will develop in the
Jewish youth an enthusiasm for jew
