Judaism Prize

Julius Rosenwald, Chicago philanthropist, financier (Sears, Roebuck & Co.), newlywed (to Mrs. Adelaide Rau Goodkind, his eldest son's mother-in-law), let it be known last week that he will award a prize of $10,000 to the person who best explains how "Judaism can, without impairing its integrity, best adjust itself to and influence modern life." Those who wish to compete must send their theories in the form of an essay (between 15,000 and 100,000 words) to the Julius Rosenwald Essay Contest, No. 71 W. 47th St., New York City. Included must be an outline and summary of the essay, complete bibliography and index. No previously published material will be accepted. Copyright and publishing rights are reserved by Mr. Rosenwald's committee. Closing date is March 31.

A similar Class B contest will be conducted simultaneously for college students, whose essays must be between 5,000 and 15,000 words. The prize: $1,500.
