“Is Hitlerism a Disease or a Philosophy?” will be debated by two outstanding authorities on German Jewish relations before a public gathering in the Grand ballroom of the Hotel LaSalle, tomorrow evening. Dr. Solomon Goldman of Temple Anshe Emet will preside. That Hitlerism is a disease of the mass mind and must be treated as such will be argued by Maurice Samuel, author and orator and a leading authority on international Jewish affairs.
Dr. Max S. Melamed will defend the view that Hitlerism is a knowingly accepted philosophy of action for which the German people must answer to humanity. Dr. Melamed is the author of a book, “Buddha and Spinoza,” shortly to be published by the University of Chicago Press.
