The Closed Shop.
The Pastors' Union of, Detroit ii, we understand, definitely organ-
ized upon an evangelical basis. its membership consisting of those
who are preachers in the various evangelical Christian churches.
Being avowedly what it is, no one can justly blame the organiza-
tion, its officers or members, for closing the doors of the Society
against those who do not share their theological views and dogmas.
But the action reported to have been taken recently by the Pas-
tors' Union is none the less a,bit surprising, seeing that we are living
in America and in ttte,twentleth century. Report has it, that some
time ago, the Ministers of local eniversaliSt and Unitarian
churches, both gentlemen of ripe scholarship, of unimpeachable
character and of exemplary citizenship, were. without solicitatiOn on
their own part, inscribed among the list of members of the organ-
ization, their names having been published in a printed list.
But the scandal of including in n union of pastors these two men
not so Orthodox as some others in their religious views, so shocked
some of the good evangelicals that by a majorif ; vote of the mem-
bers of the Pastors' Union, the names of these two men were sum-
marily dropped !rota the roster of membership WI expunged from
the records of the Society.
Never having been a member of the Pastors' Union, and never
having entertained the slightest desire to be one, we are in no wise
affected by this action of our colleagues in the local ministry. But

so, it became imperative on the best

John Spargo, the Socialist, has written a book to combat the
present anti-Semitic propaganda in this country. It will be issued by
Harper & Bros. Spargo is not a Jew. He is recognized as one of the
ablest thinkers along economic lines in the country. The big men
of the country must think a lot of Spargo, when 115 of them, headed
by President Wilson, signed at his (Spargo's) request a statement
deprecating the attempt to stir up hatred against the Jew in this
country on the part of a group of irresponsible and uncrupulous men.
A Baptist minister at Patchogue, N. Y., invited the Rabbi of the
local congregation to take part in the ceremonies attendant upon the
burning of the mortgage on the church. He also asked that the Rabbi
bring with him two of his pupils of the Hebrew school to read a por-
tion of the Bible in Hebrew, so as to stimulate a desire on the part
of the Christian girls and boys to study the Hebrew. Strange that
some advanced Jews feel "self-conscious" when they hear Hebrew
read before a mixed audience of Jews and Christians.
Did you ever stop to think that a great many of our troubles
come from being sensitively self-conscious; that we Jews—not all, of
course, but many—shrink at public manifestations of Jewish ceremo-
nialism, that seem to emphasize their separatism and "peculiarities"?
This feeling is probably due to the fact that for centuries the Jew
has been forced, as a matter of policy, to escape the attention of his
oppressors to make himself as inconspicuous as possible; and today
many feel uncomfortable in participating in what tends to conspicu-
ousness.
C.
I am glad to be set right on the subject of the "Jerusalem arti-
choke," because it has long been a source of worry with me. Ac-
cording to H. McDonald Spencer, the "Jerusalem artichoke" is
neither Jerusalem nor artichoke. An artichoke, according to this
authority, is "a thistle with a university education," while the Jeru-
salem artichoke is a "tuber." Despite the fact that its habitat,
Jerusalemly speaking, is mythical, yet certain religious Christians
regard the eating of Jerusalem artichokes almost as a sacred func-
tion because of its alleged Holy Land origin, On such do religious
myths thrive.
O
"The Dictatorship of the Sabbatariat"—I like that phrase. It is
so pat in its description of the forces underlying the revival of the
Blue Sunday. I wonder if the Sabbitarian pooh-bahs recall the war
literature dealing with the subjects of the "Failure of the Churches,"
the "Break-down of Christianity as Interpreted by the Churches," or
such articles that appeared in the "Atlantic Monthly," "Peter Stands
Warming Himself by the Fire"? Do they recall how stingingly
censured they were by enlightened public opinion because they gave
to empty hearts dogma instead of religion? Or have they forgotten
those lessons?
CI)
The attempt to revive the Ku-Klux-Klan and to invade the
North is one of the most sinister notes struck in the world of unrest.
In the words of the "Imperial Wizard," Colonel Simmons, "only
native-born Americans, who believe in the tenets of the Christian
religion and owe no allegiance to any foreign country, political insti-
tution, sect or persons," are eligible. The Ku-Klux, according to its
own platform, is not merely anti-Negro but anti-Catholic and anti-
Jew. This country has no place for such an organization and cer-
tain Northern authorities have very firmly advised them of that fact.
If I were in charge of the Hoover drive for the starving children
of Europe I think I would appeal to the public along these lines (a
suggestion I found in an article in the "Literary Digest"): "Nobody
likes to eat near the windows of restaurants in any Polish cities this
winter. The eyes of half-starved children, with their white, pinched
faces against the window panes, destroy the appetites of even the
most hardened globe-trotters." That should bring home the crying
need.
Was or was he not the grandson of a Jewish mother? That is the
interesting question that has been raised since the death of Von
Bethmann-Holweg, the War Chancellor of Germany. One anti-
Semitic paper insists that such a claim has been proved false in Ger-
many. Jewish writers and some Jewish newspapers insist that he
was of Jewish ancestry; but everybody seems agreed that he never
did very much for the Jews, and one Jewish writer attributes the
present Jewish misery of Europe to Bethmann-Holweg's policy. So
pots can decide for yourself. lie may have been one of those Jews
who, in order to emphasize their separateness from all things and
persons Jewish, are worse than the worst anti-Semite in making
conditions uncomfortable and unsafe for their own people.
on a trade route followed by the
caravans, there was a little city called
Jerusalem and a little nation called
Judea. Both were considered so un-
important that they are mentioned
scarcely, if at all, on the monuments
of great Egypt next door.
"One man that little city of the
caravan route, Disraeli, first made
himself Prime Minister of England
and then made an English woman, or
rather a German-English woman
Queen Victoria, Empress of India.
"Now Reading, another tnan from
the little city of caravans, will go to
rule India. No wonder the Jewish
people consider themselves quite sol-
emnly 'the chosen people.' They are
chosen quite often when anything im-
portant is to he done."
If what Kuno Francke, of Cambridge, Mass., says about the new
liberal German monthly that is being issued in Leipzig is true, they
every liberal ought to be glad to support it. Its title is "Vivos Voce"
and its purpose is to work for international conciliation and domestic
reconstruction "upon the basis of liberal thought." It will fight
class hatred; it will fight for religious regeneration. Prof. Richard
Woltereck, of Leipzig University, is the editor. If this paper means
to help in eliminating class and race hatred as expressed against
the Jews of Germany, it will be rendering a genuinely constructive
service. Prof. Francke calls upon this country to support it.
O
I wonder why, in face of the present high cost of paper and
printing, publishers lend themselves to every half-baked writer who
thinks he has an idea. John Pollock has written
book, published
by E. R. Dutton & Co., entitled "The Bolshevik Adventure." Mr.
Pollock believes that the Bolshevik revolution is a German con-
spiracy, engineered by Jews, and that Kerensky and Lenine were in
collusion to control the Russian situation, And such stuff is handed
to a public which is an insult to their intelligence.

In this connection it is interesting to note that Rabbi Joseph
Silverman has been made Rabbi Emeritus of Temple Emanu-El ,
New York, with a yearly pension for life of $12,000. We recall the
time when the payment of such a sum to any clergyman of any de-
