Jewish Philosophy
- - ' - Subject of Lecture
Dr. Schmarja Levin, former mem-
- ber ot the Russian Duma, and Zion
ist leader, addressed a large audience
at the Russian synagogue last eve
ning on the "Philosophy of Judaism."
Jewish philosophy, be said, was .based
on human nature. It was collective
instead of being individual and its
foundation was laid on the old saying
of "love thy neighbor as thyself."
He drew a parallel between cosmo
politanism and internationalism. The
former was the ideal of a country, he
said, bnt the latter was the ideal of
the world. -i..
"What-is it that has kept the Jew-
Uli nennl tnofthr 4nr 7 (Win vmnI"
he asked. "It. is not because they
are physically strong. It is not be
cause they are afforded protection.
The only thing that has kept them to
gether is their philosophy, their re
ligion ; and their belief in the Old
Testament" ;

By Yale Professor-

the American Association for Labor
Legislation, delivered addresses at a
joint meeting of three organizations

Prof. Irvipg Fisher of Yale univer
sity, president o the American Asso
ciation for Labor Legislation, in his
address tonight spoke in favor of the

-George E. Vincent of Minnesota,
president of the American Sociologi
cal Society, discussing "countryside
and nation," declared that as an in
dustry farming pays the average farm
er less than day wages; that only in
creases, in land values gives him a de
lusive sense of prospering from agri
culture; that tenancy is increasing dis
concertingly even in the best farming
regions such Iowa and Illinois; that
the rural population is increasingly
foot loose and migratory and that by
reason ot tnese conditions education,
social life, political responsibility,
moral standards and religious func
tions are being neglected alarmingly
ana anaerminea.
