Modern Orthodox HENRI BERGSON Plan Synagogue Organization MRS. G. GOLDSMITH TO SPEAK HERE AWARDED NOBEL MONDAY EVENING LITERATURE PRIZE French Jewish Philosopher Is Recipient of 1927 : Award. ^ v RECEIVES §42,000 Stockholm (J. T. A.)—Henri Bergson, .; noted French-Jewish philosopher was awarded the 1927 Nobel prize .for literature, held over from last year. This year's literature award went toMme. Sigrid Undset. The value of each award this year is about $42,000, an increase over that of previous years because of remission of Swedish taxes and improved business conditions, making the fund yield more. Henri Louis Bergson was born in Paris^ October 18,1859. He was educated at the Lycee Condorcet; and the Ecole Normal, from which he graduated at the age of 22. He was Professor of Philosophy at the Ly cee d'Angers from 1881-18S3, and at the College Rollin from 1888-9. From 1900 to 1921 he was professor at the College of France. He was elected a member of the French Academy in 1914. From 1921 to 1925 he was president of the Committee on Inter national Intellectual Cooperation of the League of Nations. Henri Berg-son is of Polish Jewish parentage, a scion of the famous Polish-Jewish family, Bergson, of Warsaw. He has for years been considered one of the foremost living philosophers. His books have been translated into all principal languages, while the expression "Bergsonism" and "Bergsonian philosophy" liave been current among scholars. He is an opponent of the mechanical con. ception of life, and in. his work, " 1 / : Evolution Creative,7' he broke completely with philosophic systems of the past. After serving in various posts as professor, he devoted his life to philosophical research. He visited the United States in 1913, lecturing at Columbia University.

YOL, VX.I.—No. 45
to Speak ANTI-EVOLUTION Sam Beber at Service Tonight IENDES ADVISES LAWS DENOUNCED BY RABBICOHN SAKHEORIN Deplores Acts Encroaching on Free Speech and Personal Liberty Rights. TELLS OF SMITH ARREST Free speech and personal liberty are getting one setback after another in this country, and are creating a very serious situation, according to Rabbi Frederick Cohn. who made this topic the subject of his first current topics talk for the series sponsored by the Council of Jewish Women. The lecture was given to an audience of 50 women at the Jewish Community Center Tuesday morning. Rabbi Cohn told of the arrest and imprisonment of Charles Smith, head of the Society for Atheism. when he sought to oppose the enactment of anti-evolution law in Arkansas last election day. "I do not sympathize with Smith because he is an atheist," the Rabbi said; "I think he is mistaken and foolish. But I do hold it an outrage that is hardly conceivable in America in 1928, that a man who expresses his views peaceably and tries to influence others in a peaceable manner, should be convicted of blasphemy and punished. I believe that in days to come he will be a hero and a martyr, not because of his atheism but in spite of it. He will be a martyr to the cause of free speech." Rabbi Cohn declared that antievolution laws are a menace to the country, and a nullification of the right of intellectual liberty. The passing of such a law puts a premium on ignorance, he said, and prevents the teaching of half a dozen important sciences which are= based on the law of evolution. "It is absurd to imagine that state senators and representatives are able to pass upon the ruth of a scientific doctrine," he said. Rabbi Cohn declared that the country could have prevented the present wave of bigotry, by standing out against it years ago. He expressed the opinion that the last election showed the results of religious intolerance, and was largely determined by dislike for the Catholic. "We whose country started out on the theory of separation of church and state are in danger of being given an established church," he said.
DAUGHTERS OF ZION TO GIVE BAIL JAN. 13 The Daughters of Zion will hold a ball at the City Auditorium Jan. 13. in an effort to raise $1,000 necessary to complete the purchase of a tract of land in Palestine that the local organization plans to donate to the Hebrew Teachers* College.

The College will build a boarding house for its students on the ground. The building will bear the name of the local society. Randall's Royal 15-piece orchestra will play at the ball.
DONORS TO ORPHAN SOCIETY ASKED TO MEET The Ladies' Jewish Orphan Society will hold a mass meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 27, at 2 o'clock at the B'nai Jacob Synagogue at 24th and Nicholas. All those who have at any time contributed to the organization are asked to be present to help decide upon the disposal of the Orphan Home at 25th and California which the organization has maintained for about eight years. It has been urged by some that there is no longer a need for the Home, and for this reason, the meeting is called to decide on the future status of the building.
TEMPLE ISRAEL Rabbi Frederick Conn's subject for Friday evening, November 23, at Temple Israelwill be "America." The sermon will be a Thanksgiving message. On Saturday, November 24, his topic will be "Dreamers of the Ghetto.""
The second Friday Evening Service corfdueted by the Senior Council of the Jewish Community Center proved as highly successful as the first one, the cold rainy weather failing to deter the members of the congregation.

Points Out Need for Jewish International Supreme Court. SPEAKS OVER RADIO New York (J. T. X.)—A suggestion for the revival of the »Sanhedrin, the Jewish religious supreme court, in Jerusalem for deciding new qxiestions which are arising in modern times due to the economic nnd social changes, was made by Dr. H. Pereira Mendes. aged Orthodox Rabbi and first president of the Union of Orthodox Congregations in the United States and Canada, in an address he delivered Tuesday evening over the radio from station WJZ. The occasion was '•« radio dinner" arranged by the Union of Orthodox Congregations as a tribute to Rev. Mendes" fifty years of sen-ice. Dr. Elmer E. Brown, chancellor of New York University; Dr. David de Sola Pool. Rabbi of the Spanish and Portuguese Synagogue: Rabbi Herbert S. Goldstein, president of the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations, were the speakers at the •'invisible dinner." "The time has come when we are able to re-convene our Supreme Court called Sanhedrin. We need to decide upon the many religious points that are brought up by modern civilization, by modern scientific discoveries, by the present needs, duties and calls of modern life. I say to you we have no choice in the matter if we are Orthodox Jews. For it is a mighty principle of Orthodox Judaism that we are to be guided by the Bible. You will read in Deuteronomy that when any question arises which we cannot decide at home, we are to go to tbe central authority in Jerusalem, a Supreme Court, a Sanhedrin," Dr. Mendes declared. "The Sanhedrin would lie composed of religious, judicial and lay representatives of the .Jewish population in various countries.'"

French Aviator Discovers Jewish Colony in Heart of Africa New York (J. T. A.)—A flourishing and tranquil Jewish community, numbering several thousand souls, in the heart of the African desert, surrounded on all sides by garage and semi-civilized Moor and Berber tribes, is the discovery of M. Rene Leblond. French consul at Akka in Southern Morocco, declares Pierre Van Paassen, staff correspondent of the New York Evening World, in Paris correspondence to that paper. M. Leblond -descended on the outskirts of the Jewish settlement when his plane, forming part of a mapmaking expedition in the Sahara desert, strayed from its companions, developed engine trouble and was forced to come to earth. The Jews informed him that their settlement bore the name of Alouna and that he was at that point 'a ten-day journey by caravan from the proverbially unattainable Timbuctoo.
Recalling the experiences of several other French avintors who were forced to land in hostile desert territory recently and who were taken prisoner by the Bedouin tribes, to i>e released only upon payment of heavy ransom money. M. Leblond states in his report that he was extremely apprehensive lest a similar fate, or worse, befall him at the hands of the crowds, of white-gowned people that he observed below. He goes on to say in his report, registered with the Geographical Society of France, that his surprise was more than agreeable when, upon reaching terra flrma, the folks surrounded his crippled airplane and l>y all manner of signs ami token indicated that he was a welcome visitor nnd an honored guest. M. Leblond was taken to the home of the oldest inhabitant, a venerable (Continued on Page 2)

tribes had finally forced them to conclude alliances with the Arab bands and to enter into commerce with them. The consul was able to direct one of the contributing causes of the failure of the Jews to travel in "a direct line to Palestine, when he was shown old maps and charts on which their fathers had traced the route of march. These maps were defective. Leaving the Mediterranean they had tried to circumvent Algiers, where the hostility of Arabs was known, after that they had gone astray in the desert by following too southerly a track. M. Leblond's report states further that the Jews were courteous and highly civilized. Their features were bronzed to a degree that they might almost be taken for colored people. They wore white, flowing garments, lined with wool in the manner of mountain Berbers in the Atlas region. Most of the men were heavily bearded and spend their days between sheep herding, camel raising and the study of ancient Hebraic books that they had carried with them. There were several Talmudie commentators amongst them. In the presence of M. Leblond they hoisted the French Tri-color, which he had carried in his plane and a great celebration was held iii the evening at which hundreds of beautiful young girls staged a symbolic dance. M. Leblond reports that he was able to repair his plane after three days' sojourn in the Jewish settlement and that he proposes to go back to the Jews within a few weeks.

Our last week's editorial w a s meant in no way to minimize this great work.. T h e purpose of t h e editorial w a s t o stimulate t h e interest of young Jews in their faith and to enlist the support of the old Orthodox Jews to Modern Orthodoxy. I t w a s a message to the large number of J e w s who go neither to the orthodox synagoge nor to t h e reform temple, and whom we a r e anxious to bring back to Judaism.
enlightened and scholarly intelligence a n d of profound sincerity. With t h e Jewish soul of t h e ages but the Jewish mind of today they have sensed for years the need for progress, progress spelled by the words "American Judaism." They have instructed their youth in the Jewish lore a n d Jewish legends and instilled, in them a n understanding, a respect a n d a love for the faith of their fathers. The Reformed Jewish Congregation has taken its place among the most respected sects of the city of Omaha and it stands today, as it has stood for half a century, for Judaism in its highest, its most enlightened sense, the Judaism which can live, its vision cleared by the sunlight of modern thought and its strength invigorated by the exercise of modern customs.
