THE FOUR FREEDOMS
FULL SHARE FOR ALL JEWISH POLICY OUTLINED tßec. 8.45 p.m.) RUGBY. June 15. "The historic heritage of each religious, racial, or national group must be shielded against oppression so that every human being is assured a full share in the four freedoms —freedom of faith, freedom of speech, freedom from want, and freedom from fear," said the Chief Rabbi of the British Empire, the Rev. J. H. Hertz, speaking at Luton. Referring to the attitude of Jews towards the principles of post-war settlement, he said that without subscribing to any of the ideals and implications of a doctrinal character in the pronouncements of Pope Pius XII, and the heads of churches in England, the Jews solemnly endorsed their fine pleas of a primacy of the spiritual m the life of men and nations, as well as their reaffirmation of the absolute reality of the everlasting distinction between right and wrong in human conduct, and were, furthermore, in full accord with the ideals of social righteousness and international peace in those pronouncements.
