The Providence Journal and the Wine Question.
The Providence (R. I.) Journal, moved by the constant re-
ports of law violation in connection with the issuance of per-
mits for the purchase and sale of wine for sacramental pur-
poses, is making an extensive investigation into the whole sub-
ject and is publishing the results of its findings in its columns.
As was to be anticipated, and as in fact we predicted long ago
would be the case, the Journal finds that many unscrupulous
fellows parading as rabbis, have organized so-called congre-
gations charging a nominal fee for membership with no other
purpose in view than to sell them wines supposedly for ritual-
istic purposes.
It was inevitable that some such violation of the law should
take place under the circumstances. We know human nature
well enough to have been convinced from the very outset that
some persons without a spark of decent manhood, forgetful of
the fact that by their unscrupulousness, they would bring dis-
honor upon the name of Jew, would avail themselves of a loop-
hole in the law for their own enrichment.
Because of this, we insisted in our Presidential messages
to the Central Conference of American Rabbis, that the law
giving the right to rabbis to sisue permits to procure for their
members wine for ritual purposes, should be at once rescinded.
The records of the organization will indicate that while this
recommendation was sympathetically met by all the members
of the Central Conference of American Rabbis, it was not car-
ried into effect for two reasons: In the first place, many of
the members of the Conference had such unshaken faith in
human nature that they could not be persuaded that any con-
siderable number of Jews could be found who would bring
disgrace upon their fellow Jews by a violation of the law. But
what most influenced them was the fact that they feared their
Orthodox brethren might misunderstand their attitude if a pe-
tition were addressed to Congress to rescind the law.
This stand they took in face of the fact that it was per-
fectly clear according to Jewish sources, that unfermented
wine now commonly known as grape juice, might be used for
all Jewish ritual purposes. What the Conference did do was
to set itself on record in behalf of its own members, represent-
ing several hundred of the largest and most prominent con-
gregations in America whose membership runs into the hun-
dreds of thousands, that not one of them would take advantage
of the permission granted by the government to obtain wines
for sacramental purposes for their own members. As a mat-
ter of fact, we believe that this resolution has been absolutely
lived up to by every member of the Conference.
But obviously this was not going far enough in the matter,
as the revelations fo the Providence Journal make clear. In
behalf of that Journal, it may be said that the articles that
have thus far come to our notice have been eminently fair.
And it has been shown by the investigators that those who,
masquerading as rabbis have illegally trafficked in wines, were
in fact, not rabbis at all, but mere bootleggers who used re-
ligion as a cloak for carrying on their nefarious trade.
The difficulty is that the government in applying the law
did not sufficiently investigate the character and the standing
of those who applied for permits. Anyone who claimed to be
the leader of a congregation, though it had been organized but
a week or two in advance of the application, was recognized
as a rabbi.
The time has definitely come, therefore, when to avoid
further infringements of the law, definite steps will have to
be taken, we believe, to rescind that portion of the law deal-
ing with the issuance of permits to buy and sell wine for sacra-
mental purposes. Incidentally, the whole situation should
make it clear to Jews that they will have to throw some safe-
guards around the rabbinical title. Not every man who as a
"schochet" is merely a slaughterer of meat, and not every
"mohel," much less not every man who gathers 10 men around
him and leads them in prayer, has the right to call himself a
rabbi. This fact will have to be made very clear to the au-
thorities and to the general public. It is only when this shall
try, this volume is interesting. It con-
tains papers on medical subjects by
members of the society. The book in
itself is a compilation of papers pre-
sented before the society and bound
as originally printed. There is no
uniformity about the papers, the
printed pamphlets ranging in size
from 4x9 to 6x9 sheets. But that not
only does not detract from the im-
portance of the compiled papers, but,
on the contrary, adds to the impor-
tance of the book in that it shows a
desire on the part of the society to
produce something worth while as a
contribution to medical literature.
Most of the papers in the Maimon-
ides folder were published after pres-
entation in the following medical jour-
nals: Urogolic and Cutaneous Re-
view, American Journal of Surgery,
American Medicine, Canada Lancet,
Medical Review of Reviews, Interna-
tional Journal of Surgery, American
Journal of Ophthalmology, Endocrin-
ology, American Physician.
The folder contains papers by the
following members of the Maimonides
Medical Society: Drs. N. E. Arons-
tam (two papers), S. E. Barnett, M.
Benmosehe, H. S. Berman, Edward J.
