From the long range point of view, I do not know of anything we can do more important than to make some contribution to the preservation of religion as a vital force in America. Louis Finkelstein
I feel very strongly that it is vital for us to constantly keep in mind the fact that the Jewish problem is but a phase of the world problem. Louis Finkelstein
