There is to be no Jewish state in Pal-

Jewish nationality previously existing
in Palestine. That was formally laid
down in the Churchill-Samuel White
Paper, and as formally accepted by
the Zionist leaders. My monition at
the great Balfour meeting that Mount
Zion in labor must not produce ar

from money-drives—of the continu-

tinue to Cal themselves Zionists, un-
less they join the existing Jewish
munity in Palestine. For them, as
for all other absentee workers, includ-
ing the Brandeis group with its form-
ula of "Zion before Zionism," pro-
Zionist is the maximum term possi•
ble. That was the condition laid down
by the Balfour Declaration, formulat-
ing as it did, though in the concrete
case of Palestine, that the Territorial
Organization had long declared to be
the only feasible political formula for
any territory, to wit, that it was to

With the acceptance of the Balfour
Declaration by Zionists t au anti-Zion-
ists alike, both these parties should
have disappeared from the Diaspora;
and if there is pathos in the inability
of the Zionists to grasp that their
day has passed, there is nothing more
sordid in .lewishhistory than the

But I believe that in the actual po-

foolish as to take what little does ex-
ist so seriously as their highnesses.

Never Before Such Values
in Enclosed Cars
With the.attention of motorists centered
9n enclosed models the wonder of the
good Maxwell values at the new reduced
prices grows greater day by day.
People have discovered that all that was
true of the touring car at '795 is equally
true of the Sedan, the Club Coupe or any
other enclosed or open model in the good
Maxwellakne.
Never before have skill, experience and
unlimited resources united to give the
dollar such amazing purchasing power.

That principle of "Safety First" ICC
Kaye-tried for nigh two thousand
years, and the result is an absence of
safety whose only parallel is among
the hapless Armenians. To add insult
to injury, the world still attaches to
us the stigma of Shylock,
Such a stigma comes indeed
strangely from a world whose chief
concern is now with reparations.
Viewing the nations, as one should
sometimes do through a diminishing
lens to get the trite proportions, how
meanly one would think of two house-
holds, ready to sacrifice even their
unborn children to a quarrel over
dollars—Shylock himself repudiated
the offered gold in a sublimer sav-
agery.
But the world's contempt for the
Jew is not wholly undeserved. A peo-
ple, a faith, in so parlous a situation,
lives not under peace conditions, but
under war conditions, and the stand-
ard of duty exacted from every Jew
is not a peace-standard but a war-
standard. How high that was you
know from the sunsuits of sacrifice
to which American Jews, no less than
American Christians, rose in the late
war. To this war-standard a small
minority of Jews have lived up—or
are now trying to live up—a Bent,
a Nordau, a Woltsohn, a Marmorek, a
Baron Hirsch, an Israel Friedlander,
a Bernard Cantor, a Jacob Schiff, a
Mayer Sulzberger. I have mentioned
only the dead. But even at the risk
of invidious distinction I must name
Baron Edmond de Rothschild and
two of your own philanthropists
whose beneficence particularly appeals
to me, because it has this feature in
common that it transcends racial
boundaries and is thus peculiarly
Jewish. One is the supporter of
Negro education, Julius Rosenwald,

kindness, New York's best citizen,
your beloved president, Nathan
Straus. Had every Jew lived up to
the Straus war-standard, the .Jewish
status today would have been very
different. But even the faithful few
