KOVNO JEWRY STIRRED BYBURIAL OF
CONVERT’S CHILD IN JEWISH CEMETERY
Kovno (WNS) — Kovno Jewry is wagging its tongue over
the disclosure that a child of a Jewish convert to Christianity
was hurried in the Jewish cemetery here after Chief Rabbi
Shapiro had overruled the Chevra Kadis ha (Jewish burying
society), which had refused to permit the child to be in-
terred in a Jewish cemetery. The father is M. Loznik, a
former yeshiva student, who embraced Christianity many
years ago and devoted himself to spreading his new faith
among the Jews.

The Weekly Sedrah CLASSIFIED
by Rabbi David B. Alpert
“Through you shall all the na-
tions of the earth be blessed.”
Genesis 28—31; P* Vayeze
How life touches life, and in-
fluences each other: this is the
theme of the sedrah. The Bible
presents incidents how people
influence each other, sometimes
for the best, sometimes not for
the best, and introduces Laban
as the key-element in many of
these incidents.
Laban should be especially at-
tractive to the contemporary
schools of influencing people, of
using practical psychology and
its corrollary of successfull sales-
manship, in subjecting people to
our will and persuading them
to be of advantage or profit to
us. Laban knew all the arts and
stratagems, and he commanded
all the devices.
For many impressionable
years, Jacob came under the in-
fluence of Laban. * Jacob was
received with urbane courtesy,
which must have appealed to
him: “thou art my own flesh
and blood.” In the passing of
years, Jacob was to learn that
Laban’s extreme courtesy *vaks
only some of the rules of the
game of deliberate persuasion.
Laban bested Jacob in marriage
and in trade; he turned Jacob’s
intelligence to his own use until
Jacob insisted on a fair share
of his earnings. Did Rachel, on
leaving her father’s home, take
Laban’ teraphim (some form of
idol) as a keepsake of her
childhood home or as evidence
that her father’s will would not
further their lives? After Jacob | HUn-
and his family leave Laban,
Laban overtakes them again with
the proper speech of the psychol-
ogy and salesmanship and influ-
encing people: “what have you
done, in stealing my heart? . .
why didn’t you tell me that you
planned to leave that I might
send you forth rejoicing and with
musical accompaniment?"
Laban represents a deliberate
attempt to make your will pre-
vail over other people, and to
use them at your pleasure. For
a time, the practiced art may
succeed but ultimately there is
rebellion at the insincerity and
dishonesty. But the less con-
scious and less studied touch of
life that stirs and orouses an-
other to piritual heights is what
the Bible aims to teach! Only
those who are blessed impart the
lasting influence.
