A Century of Progress Includes Religion The dedication of the Hall of Religion which took place on Sunday, June eleven, on the Exposition grounds was attended with great ceremony and in spite of the torrid sun sending mercury climbing up the huge termometer to the hundred mark, large crowds gathered to partici- pate in the festivities. To some of us who remembered the World's Columbian Exposition of forty years ago; (were reminded) this event brought recollections of the Parliament of Religion. The great leader of that period were not there, til prophetic voice of Dr. Emil G. Hirsch was absent, the scholarly mind of Dr. Felseu?? - that was missing, but Dr. Gerson? B. Levi and Dr. Louis L. Mann have filled their places with credit and both have (thundered down) expanded the ideals of Judaism in no uncertain terms. "Religion is no longer competitive, but coope- native" proclaimed Dr. Rev. "A Religion that blesses war damns itself." Spoke Dr. Mann. George W. Dixon was the chairman of the occasion, he intro duced Bishop Ernest Lynn Waldorf who (gave) rad the invocation. That (the) harmonious cooperation provided among the members of its committee in chapter? of unclear of the planning of the building was evident throughout the proceedings, and when Dr. Levi commented up it with course of his remarks all the other religious dignitaries nodded approval. And yet it seemed as if a strained feeling prevailed and the inquisitive mind was looking for the cause until Dr. Mann returned? the tension when he thundered in condemnation against Anti Semitic government of Germany and Hitlerism; It became obvious that it was the ghost. that caused the gloom. Here again am was reminded of the Capers of reli sion (that) of forty years ago, the finale of which was a condemnation of the then Russian Hamen? who sought to destroy Israel. Dr Albert, on behalf of Mr. Rufus? C Daves accepted the Hall of Relgision for the Century of Progress
