Model Explains
Basic Beliefs
Of Jewish Faith
Reverence for Jewish law has
kept the Jewish people, subjected
to many centuries of trfals ami
hardships, alive for the last 3000
years, Rabbi Julius Josef Model
said Wednesday in the 1 p.m. ad
dress. entitled “O. How I Love
Thy Law.”
Outlining basic beliefs of Juda
ism. Rabbi Model said that many
persons believe that legalism is in
compatible with spiritual “inner
ness.” Law in Judaism means a
“way of life." he explained, and is
designed to train the character and
develop self-restraint. The only
dogma in the Jewish religion is an
absolute belief in God, he said.
Four Major Beliefs
The Rabbi named the four major
beliefs of Judaism during his 45-1
minute talk. He said:
1. All men have original virtue. ’
(Judaism does not recognize orig
inal sin. Jews believe in freedom ,
of will in men; that there is good i
and evil in all things.)
2. The worthwhileness of man j
himself.
3. Conduct, not belief, is the
most important thing in life.
(Rabbi Model criticized Billy j
Grahame. the nationally famous
evangelist, for preaching that "it
doesn't matter how you live as
long as you accept God."
Fewer dews in Reform Schools
He said that there are fewer
Jews in reform schools and peni
tentiaries today according to sta
tistics taken from welfare records.
The Rabbi accounted this to the
fact that Judaism lays strong em
phasis on home life and attempts
to tie the family closely together.)
4. The individual finds value not
in himself alone, but in others:
Jews do not plead for individual
salvation but for social righteous
ness.
Expression of Jewish Tradition
"Jewish theology is the way in
which, at any time, Jewish tradi
tion tries to express itself in the
individual," Rabbi Model stated.
Traditions in Judaism have been
handed down by the many to the
many, he said; not by a church,
but by a congregation.
The Rabbi declared that revela
tion is a changing process, never
static, and revisions in expression
of tradition must be made con
stantly to adapt it to the present.
He emphasized the fact that
Jews are not a race of people nor
a nationality, but a religious
group. “A man is not a Jew by
birth," he said, “but becomes a
Jew only if he accepts the religion
of Judaism.”

Moslems Place Allegiance to God
Over National Feeling. Minto Says
The Moslem thinks first of his j
God and then of his country, ac- j
cording to Bashir Ahmed Minto.
president of the U S. Moslem so
ciety.
Minto explained the modern-day
tenets of Islam “not Moslem
ism," he emphasized; there's no
such word Wednesday at 2 p.m.
as one of the speakers at the Par
liament of World Religions.
The Moslem puts his religion in
front of everything else. Minto
said. He contrasted this with what
he had observed in Christian coun
tries.
A Nationalistic God
“There they don't worship a God
who belongs to all: they worship
a God identified with nationalism."
He explained this by asking why
American flags appeared in U.S.
churches and why the British place
statues of their national heroes in
Westminster abbey.
This nationalizing of God is one
of the causes for international con
flict. Minto said. A diplomat from
another country will put his coun
try's interest above all else while
a Moslem ambassador, according
to Minto, will do the right thing
and not necessarily what is best
for his country.
“He will not defend his country
if he sees his country is wrong,"
Minto told the audience.
Keep Open Minds
Islam teaches its followers to
keep an open mind and not reject
an idea on the basis of prejudice,
he said. His people have nothing
against inter-racial marriage; in
fact, think nothing of it, since they
see no fault in it.
“I have married 14 such couples
myself," Minto said. He added that
his wife is English.
Moslems do not honor their
Manager of Old
Oregon Magazine
Bob Ford, sophomore in liberal
arts, has been selected as business
manager of Old Oregon alumni
magazine, according to Les Ander
son, alumni secretary.
Fold, who was selected Tuesday,
has been active in publications
work on the campus. He was editor
of the Ore-n-ter, orientation book
let for freshman and associate ed
itor of the Pigger's Guide. He is
also associate editor of schools for
the Oregana and chairman of the
Student Union publicity commit
tee.
The post was vacated by the res
ignation of Virginia Kellogg, who
did not return to school winter
term.
prophet, Mohammed, as the Son of
God as Christians regard Christ,
Minto said. He added that those
who followed Mohammed were
known as his "companions," not
“disciples." Neither is Moham
med’s birthday or the day of his
death honored, as Christians honor
Christ at Christmas and Easter.
Two l-'estivals
Islam has two festivals: the
month of purification and a cele
bration in memory of Abraham.
Moslems believe that, in order to
purify themselves, they must sac
rifice something or punish them
selves by giving up something,
Minto said. The festival honoring
Abraham, he said, is held so that
all will remember this Biblical
hero, who was ready even to sacri
fice his only son to God, and let
him t>e an example for the rest of
Islam.
