Program and Intention

With the appearance of this enlarged edition, the Jewish Daily Bulletin enters upon a new phase. In addition to transmitting the world’s Jewish news, it will publish news letters and articles giving a comprehensive description of Jewish events as well as editorial comment, and will contain such other departments as book and theatrical reviews, photographs, cartoons, and other features, which together, will make the Bulletin thorough, accurate, entertaining.

The enlarged Sunday edition makes its appearance at a moment when a comprehensive survey of the problems with which the Jewish community is confronted has become an imperative need.

The Jewish Daily Bulletin will continue to report impartially, concisely and authentically all Jewish news. It will be independent. It will not propagate any particular theory or tendency. It will be a clarion call to the young American Jew who is growing up uninformed on contemporary Jewish life, guiding him to a proper understanding of his people and stimulating his consciousness of and responsibility to the Jewish community. It will acquaint its readers with the manifold activities and undertakings of Jews throughout the world and will endeavor to set Jewish conditions in their true perspective before its readers.

The paper will not preach any philosophy of Jewish life but will stand squarely for one policy: the survival of the Jewish group. It will endeavor to be the bulwark against the many disintegrating influences which work upon the Jewish community. It will give wholehearted support to the promulgation of Jewish educational activities and of those movements which tend to intensify Jewish cohesion and solidarity, such as the efforts to bring relief to Jews in other countries suffering from political persecution or economic ills, as well as to the great task of creating a Jewish National Home in Palestine.

The recent tragic events in Germany, we believe, necessitate a reorientation on the part of many Jews who have until now been aloof or indifferent. If, in the very heart of Europe, in one of the most highly cultured countries of the world, the equal status of the Jew as a citizen could have been destroyed,—in a country where the Jews comprise one percent of the population and where they have made the most earnest effort to be like the rest of the nation—it affords a ### to Jews everywhere else, and ### point the way to the need of ### ranks.
