POSTORIAL
MARTIN BUBER AT BLESSED FOUR SCORE
With the passage of the years, the influence of Martin Buber,
philosopher, Zionist leader and teacher at the Hebrew Univer-
sity of Jerusalem is constantly enhanced. As we mark his 80th
birthday, it is gratifying to see the ranks of his disciples and ad-
mirers increase. There are those who differ with his interpretei-
tion of Judaism who yet respect him highly as a deeply religious
leader: there are others who take an opposite stand from his
limited one on nationalism yet, nonetheless, credit him with
inspiring their migration to Israel; there are many who under-
stand nothing of the inner spiritual fires which stoked the emer-
gence of Chassidism, who now recognize it as a vital force in
Judaism, thanks to his championship of the movement with
trenchant pen and colorful literary style.
Buber is also one of the great translators of the Bible. His
translation of the Scriptures, which he began with the late
Franz Rosenzweig, is regarded by experts as the closest to the
original version is existence.
Born in Austria, February 8, 1878, he has often been com-
pared to and held in the same high esteem, as Moses Mendel-
sohn, philosopher and writer, by both Jewish and Christian
theologians. His work, “I and Thou” has had a profound in-
fluence in Christian theological circles. Interestingly, a Catho-
lic scholar, discussing him recently, said: “ ... in an era of
mistrust and separation . . . few voices sound so clearly on the
side of trust, community and reintegration as Martin Buber.”
Although he retired from his active duties at Hebrew Uni-
versity in 1951, Buber has maintained a busy schedule of writ
ing and lecturing in Israel and the United States where he has
appeared at leading universities and theological institutes. He
is expected; in the United States again shortly for a series of
lectures at Princeton University.
In 1949, Buber became head of the College for Adult Educa-
tion Teachers which he initiated through Hebrew University’s
Adult Education Center. The new influx of immigrants into
Israel from Poland, Hungary and Egypt has revived and reem-
phasized the importance of the College which takes its orien-
tation from his carefully formulated and tested ideas on the
education of adults of all ages.
A giant of a man intellectually, and a medern counterpart
of a Biblical prophet in appearance—with his impressive patri-
archal beard an.d mop of silver hair-Buber visualized a Hebrew
University even before its formal founding in 1918. He saw it
as a driving force in the inspired redemption of the Jewish peo-
ple. His role as a foundetr and teacher of thei university has been
aptly characterized by a colleague who called him “a teacher
of teachers and a teacher of their students. ”
His philosophy is best summed; up in his own words that
“Man’s spirit—his ruah—is not a means.” Buber believes that
the spirit is authentic only if it is fulfilled and realized—that
the Jewish people have returned to their homeland for the
third time in order to fulfill this spirit.
The philosopher Buber says you cannot understand the world
unless you are a participant in it. As a leader who disputed with
Hejrzl; as one who inspired early returnees to the Land of Is-
rael; a true liberal not hampered by petty doctrine; a devout
pacifist and crystal-clear thinker; Buber will long be remem-
bered for influencing the leaders, religious thinkers and writers
of our age.

Jake Golman
The Baking Industry, the city
of Dallas and the State of Texas
will'jointly pause on Tuesday, Ap-
ril 15, to honor Jake Golman . . .
as a man, a baker, and a leading
citizen.
On that day, Jake Golman,
President of Oak Cliff Baking
Company in Dallas will be cele-
brating his 65th Birthday and his
50th year in baking. To honor
these events, there will be a Jake
Golman Testimonial 'Dinjner in
the Crystal Ballroom of the Baker
Hotel in Dallas.
More than one thousand friends
of Jake Golman are expected to
attend.
Jake Golman was a master
baker turning out French and Rye
Bread in Dallas at the age of 18
at the old Schepps Bakerly.
Between 1911 and 1914, Mr.
Golman managed to bring his en-
tire family including five broth-
ers, two sisters and his mother
and father to this country with
money saved from wages.
In 1921 he and his brother
Julius bought a bakery of their
own. And in 1930 were the first
wholesale bakers in Texas to twist
bread to give it finer texture.
This pract’ce, now almost univer-
sal, Mr. Jake* had learned as a
young baker’s apprentice in Eu-
rope.
In 1928 he was the first Texas
baker to deliver sliced bread bo
the consumer. Later that year
Julius and George Schepps, Hy-
man Nathanson, Jake and Julius
Golman sold their bakeries. Jake
and Julius then built two new
baker'es in 1930, despite the de-
pression.
A past Vice President of the
American Bakers Association, and
serving his fifth three-year term
on the board of governors of the
American Bakers Association, Mr.
Golman gave credit for his suc-
cess to “Friends, a loyal organi-
zation and hard work”.
Although Golman believes in
hax!d Work, he never fails to find
time to take part in civic work.
“Believe me, I’ve always receiv-
ed more from these activities than
I’ve put into them”, he said. In
1933 he was named as the first
recipient of the Owen George A-
ward of the Oak Cliff Chamber
of Commerce.
An inveterate joiner, Golman
takes part in almost every civic
activity. He helped build, as chair-
man of the Finance Committee,
the present Oak Cliff Chamber of
Commerce Building, and served
as its president in 1937. He also
is a charter member of the Oak
Cliff Rotary Club, the Oak Cliff
Lions Club, the Dallas Club and
the Sales Executive Club.
He also belongs to the Sales-
manship Club, Lakewood Country
Club, Dallas Athletic Club, and
he was president in 1944 and 1945
of Congregation Shearith Israel.
He was a member of the Dallas
county blue ribbon grand jury in
1951. In 1935 Jake Golman led
a group of Oak Cliff and Dallas
business men in refinancing Meth-
odist Hospital.
