The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1940-09-27

the public announcements of our
authorized spokesman have al
ways been OutspOked and unequi-
vocal in opposition to and con-
demnatiOn of all movements mimi
cal to American institutions and
American freedom.
Time was, and not long ago,
when in too many quarters Amer
icanism was regarded as blatant
chauvinism. Now the whole coun-
try is turning to a renewed fer
vor of dramatiZed Americanism,
in it's best sense. Long before the
present trend, B'nai Birth carried
on an intensive Americanism ac-
tivity as an integral part Of it's
year round program.
There were many, too, who de-
plOred the lack of moral fibre and
lack of responsibility in youth,
who had been blamed for many of
our political, economic and moral
ills. Recognizing youths potential
tiles for helping to regenerate
American and Jewish life, B'nai
Birth this year brOadened the
scope of its Hillel Foundations,
which were founded nearly two
decades ago as cultural, religious
and social welfare centers at
American universities and cOlleg-
eS. The Hillel movement now
