Beaver - Ph. 7661 U.S. Probes Discussed By Lelyveld By LEN GOODMAN Searching for and establishing the relevancies between our re ligious and moral heritage and our modem life will expose Mc- Carthyism as the insidious move ment it is, declared Arthur J. Lelyveld, rabbi and national di rector of the 200 Hillel Founda tions, Sunday afternoon at the local foundation. Illustrating his talk with teach ings gleaned from the Jewish Talmud, the exegetical commen taries, Lelyveld maintained that if the heritage is forsaken, factors of enrichment of our society are also lost. By exposing the “nightmare quality” of the investigations at which 1 the committee is at once prosecutor, judge, and jury, we will at the same time expose the inherent disregard for due pro cess in the investigations, and the lack of faith in democratic ideals of committee-members, he said. The Talmud, for instance, main tains a deep respect for due pro cess throughout, and places the individual under an “obligation to search for the whole truth, and to avoid half truths,” he added. And, too, the teachings warn one to be on guard against situ ations that shame one’s neighbor. Thus, the heritage does have di rect relevance to contemporary events, he said. Another characteristic of Mc- Carthyism is the actual inherent stupidity in the movement, he added. It would seem that its adherents understood better what it opposed than what it advocated, he said, for the movement seems to be a “tilting at symbols for advantages to the tilter.” The term “McCarthyism” is al so being used as a term of whip ping by the Soviets, Lelyveld de clared, to’ obscure the evils of the Russian system.
