Cohen when informed of the death of Lord Balfour. “His contributions to philosophy, literature and ethics make him one of the outstanding personalities of our age, but to the millions of Jewish people throughout the world his memory will be sacred forever, mainly as the father of the epoch-making declaration which has created a Jewish National Home in the Holy Land, from which there shall again issue the beacon-light of Jewish religion, ethics and culture.”
