endeavor to put up the bars against those who seek shelter here
against the onslaughts of religious and political persecution..
For this reason, immigration legislation cannot be a matter
of indifference to us, as Jews, for, unfortunately, among the vic-
tims of these forms of persecution are vast numbers of our co-
religionists. It behooves us, therefore, to set ourselves squarely
on record as to where we stand in this matter. We believe that
we speak for practically all the Jews of American when we say
that we would not for one moment sanction the admission to these
shores of any person who, coming hither, would not be prepared
to enter heart and soul into the spirit of our institutions; who
would not be ready to give his full and undivided loyalty to this
country; who would not come hither desiring and determined to
make this blessed land a home not only for himself but also for
his children.
We Jews go the full length with those who would exclude from
American hospitality the pauper, the insane, the criminal, the
anarchist; in fact, all whose physical or moral defects would
logically make them dependents or, what is worse, a source of
danger to our country and its institutions.
But on the other hand, we believe that it would be contrary to
the spirit in which our republic was conceived and subversive
of the principles upon which it was builded by the fathers, to
close the doors of this country in the face of those who, as the
victims of political oppression or religious persecution, come
hither seeking an opportunity to live their lives as men, in free-
dom and under equal laws, and who, in return for the blessings
which here they expect to receive, are eager to accept every duty
and to make every sacrifice which American citizenship implies.

The Sin of Ignorance.

Harvard Demands Bible Study.

It is perhaps a reflection upon the efficient work of the re-
ligious schools of all denominations that the heads of the
literary faculty of Harvard University have issued a statement
that they find graduate students in the literary department
so utterly deficient in a knowledge of the Old and New Testa-
ments that they have decided to graduate no student from that
department until he can pass an examination in the literature
of the Bible.
We believe that this action on the part of the Harvard
authorities will go far to stimulate the study of our sacred
literature which has been all too long neglected. It is a
startling fact, that has more than once been pointed out, that
while no man or woman can truly pretend to culture who is not
acquainted with the literature of the Bible, still hosts of per-
sons who make no small pretense of being educated men and
women, are hopelessly ignorant of the contents and the spirit
of the great Book of Books.
What objections hold to the study of the Bible in the public
schools—and such objections as has been frequently pointed
out in these columns are many and valid—do not hold in the
higher institutions of learning. When a man has fitted himself
to take up his studies in a great university, he should be suffi-
ciently mature to take up, under the leadership of his professor.
the study of the Bible without running the slightest risk of
interference with his religious convictions. If he is not pre-
pared to do this. he is assuredly not ready to enter upon a
university course of study. Moreover. as we understand it,
Harvard is to demand a knowledge of the Bible especially from
the standpoint of literature. Therefore, while allowing other
translations to be used, it especially stresses the King James
version of the Bible as a bit of classic English writing. This
version, though hopelessly distorted as a translation of the
original text, deserves all possible encomium as a bit of good
writing. In fact, it is questionable whether our English litera-
ture contains anything better or whether there is very much
vs good.
But, as stated above, we believe that the action of the
Harvard authorities in making a knowledge of the Bible com-
pulsory upon its graduates will go far to arouse a new interest
in Bible study in general. And this will be a real achievement.
Perhaps it may even serve to suggest to some of the syna•
gogue and church organizations throughout the land, that it
is quite as important for men and women to study the Bible as
it is for them to have a familiar acquaintance with Browning,
Ibsen and even Shakespeare.

I dreamt I saw an angel in the sky,
Her face was calm and fair up there on high;
She smiled at me a strange and lovely smile
That had in it no thought of earthly guile.
She looked so fair, so strange and wondrous purr,
That 'twos an angel, I was passing sure;
She spoke—her voice was music in the air;
•So sweet it was, it matched her person fair.
She asked me, "Is there aught that I can do?"
I humbly answered, "Make me fair as you."

I feel the same way about the delinquents in our o

Men who make themselves an evil name and continue to do ev il things
ought to be punished in some way by society. Not necessar ily put in
prison, but the weight of public opinion and public sentiment ought
to be laid against them. A distinguished author says that of the three
most important things a man should value are "money, health and
reputation" in the order named. It's a rather cynical line-up. He
argues that even the worst reputation can be overcome if one has
enough money—end it does look that way.

That "Jewish Valor Legion" can serve no specially good purpose.
Just to show Chesterton and Ford and all the rest of them that the
Jews were patriotic and did their bit in the war this Legion is being
formed. I question the wisdom of it. The record of the Jew speaks
for itself, and it isn't necessary to PROVE our patriotism; it ought
to be taken for granted.
