UN CASIO DIE RACIONALISMO

/ la personalidad del gran ~pensador
con toda su deslumbrante luz. A
Iii no toma en- cuenta autoridad
J alguna, pues la autoridad supre-
ma para Ell es la razon. Maimo-
hides esta convencido de que solo
eXiste n verdad Y es la de la
logica f~ilosofica, unica a la que
Sc debe reconocer Y servir. La
verdadera Revelation Divina es la
de las ensenanzas de Noises. asi
como la unica filosofia verdadera
es la de Aristoteles, cuyas bases
son indestructibles; en- c%onsecuen-
cha, las ensenanzas de Noises
constituyen ideas filosoficas. Res
pecto a este punto, concuerda con
Filon; al igual que este, cree Mai
monides que no deben considerar-
Sc los pasajes biblicos en- su sen
lido literal sino alegorico. Y en-
10 referente a las leyes del Libro
de Noises. sol TITLES y necesarios.
Pero Maimonides no esta en-
TODD de acuerdo con Aristoteles.
Contra la %creencia de este filoso-
TO, consistente en- que ell Univer-
so forma parte de la Divinidad.
Maimonides abriga la idea de que
es Creacion suya porque es mas
logico que haya sido creado un
Algo de la NADIA. Rechazando la
idea del "primus motor, no po-
driamos comprender la existen-
cia de las cosas. Mas. :como ina
ginar a dos? Ell lenguaje huma-
no no puede expresar fielmente
las ideas que tenemos de las cosas
que nos rodean. pues las EXPIRE
samos por medic de las palabras,

presar por estos medios Aquello
que carece de imagen? Igualmen-
tie por medic de las palabras ex-
presamos nuestros sentimientos
humanos; pero Dios no es hombre
Y. sin embargo, nos 10 represen-
tamos en- nuestro lenguaje con to-
dos los attributes Y sentimientos
del hombre. Dios es la totalidad
y 10 infinito; esta por encima Y
fuera del tempo. Entonces,
icomo afirmar que Dios es eter-
no? En- opinion de Maimonides,
los poetas religiosos que cantan
las glorias de Dios, son astutos y
blasfemos. No Sc puede servir a
Dos por medic de los rezos sine
por la investigation f~ilos6fica,
Maimonides MEGA que todos los
israelitas gozaran de la Gloria,
pues solo sera immortal quien
dedique su vida a la ciencia V la
Investigation. Ell hombre esta he
cho de materia grosera, pero su
alma tiene algo del Ser Esprit
tual y puede llegar a hacerse in
mortal por la s%abiduria".
Dice Maimonides: "No debemos
Greer que las Esferas Y los An
geles fueron creados para nos
otros, pues nuestro estado es de
masiado bajo. Haced la prueba
compared vuestro ser con Ell de
los angeles y comprendereis que
es la verdad. =" M~aimonides nc
comparte la opinion talmudica de
que ell mundo fue hecho solo para
ell hombre V que este ha sido crea-
do cor ell objeto de servir a dos.
pues podria preguntarse: "iAca
so neceSita Dios de la adoracior
servicios del hombre para Su
perfection? Pero luego Maim6-
hides c~ontesta: "Tal fue la vo-

"El Alma que no ha investiga-

people. According to a report re-
Gently issued this fund is being used
for three purposes. First, to keep
all the Federal departments ac-
quainted with exactly what is hap
pening to colored people in the ap-
plication Of the various recovery and
relief measures throughout the coun-
try. Second. to make an effort to
take advantage of the reorganization
of industry and labor to help the race
get better status in organized labor.
Third, to make study Of the chang
ing position Of colored people in ag-
riculture with a view TO finding ways
by which those who are being thrown
out of employment by the sweeping
reorganization in farming, may find
new place in rural economy"
For the past two years the fund has
been making a careful study Of race
relations all over the world, because
it believes that the attitudes mani
tested by these races toward each
other in distant lands have a direct
bearing on the race problem in the
United States.
The activities which have been
mentioned by no means comprise all
in which the RoSenwald Fund has
engaged to promote the welfare of the
colored people of this country. With
out its beneficent miniStrations thou
sands who are now acquiring an edu-
cation would have remained in ig-
norance. Thousands who are enjoy
ing good health would have probably
been rendered miserable and unfit by
disease. For thousands of intelligent.
honest, outstanding citizens IN Sec
ton where opportunities are limited
this country is indebted to the Rosen-
valid Fund.

careers in music. the fine arts. busi-
ness and the professions. At least
365 of the most promising represent
atives of colored youth have availed
themselves of the opportunities for
advanced study which this fund has
afforded. About 273 have studied at
68 Of the leading universities, hospitals
and special institutions in the North
and 80 have taken courses in of the
leading colleges for colored youth in
the South. Nineteen have studied
abroad in England. Denmark. Ger
many, Austria, Italy and France.
Among the outstanding representatives
of the young women and men a large
number owe the success they have
achieved to the opportunities which
the RoSenwald Fund has enabled them
to enjoy at home and abroad. In
spite of the pressing demands upon it
for other purposes. and although the
available funds had greatly decreased,
the board spent $l68000 for fellow
ships for colored students during the
last three years.
The officers of the fund have mani
tested their interest in the health of
the race by spending nearly 81 900, 900
for hospitals in various parts of the
country. These hospitals not only
cared for colored patients, but they
served as training schools for nurses
and young physicians before they be-
gan to practice. Among the out
standing hospitals which have been
assisted by this fund may be men
toned the Provident Hospital, affili-
ated with the University of Chicago;
Meharry Medical School of Nashville,
Tenn. and Flint Goodridge Hospital
of billiard University in New Orleans.
Special Clinics Established.
Due to the efforts made by the di-
rectors of the fund, in the counties of
IL Southern States there are SO COL
ored nurses who are rated as regular
county officers. In addition to this
there are special clinics which teach
how to care for cases of tuberculosis
and venereal diseases.
Owing to the influence exerted by
the members of the board, the Pub
lie Health Service has for some years
directed one of the senior officers to
use the facilities afforded by the Gov
ernment to curb disease and improve
the health of colored people in that
section of the South in which this
work is being done.
Those who are managing the fund
have done what they could to secure
for coiored people just share of the
relief which the Government is Offer
ing those who need help. At con-
ference called in Washington in the
Spring of 1888 the economic status Of
colored people was thoroughly dis
cusSed by Government officials, econ
omistS and business men Of both
races. Plans were made to make it
possible for colored people to receive
the same consideration as was shown
other racial groups. One Of its own
officers was lent by the board to serve
as special adviser to Secretary of In
terror Harold Ickes. He was commits
stoned to keep the welfare of colored
people before the attention of the
heads Of all Government departments
