begins to wish to be "informed."
It is this thing which has led to tin;
reading of Zangwill's "Children of the
Ghetto" and "Dreamers of the Chet-
hi," of the stories by Peretz as well as
of the novels about the Jews of Ga-
licia by the Tharaud Brothers. The
"Trois Femmes," the "Nocturnes" by
!mann and still other works, for 1 do
nut intend to exhaust the list, are be-
ing read with great interest. Obscure-
ly, however, even the least informed
reader applies himself to solving the
question as to how much credence he
can give to these works. Ile reasons
that the works of Zangw ill and Per-
etz may be partial to the morality or
to the virtues of their co-religionists
because they are Jews. Rut he feels
that these books are exact chronicles
with regard to the Jewish customs, re-
ligious rites 111111 the whole Jewish

men reads the brothers Tharaud who
are neither Jews nor revolutionists,
he will have to admit the high rank
which Jewish idealism holds in the
world.
With Unarm and his "Nocturnes"
we approach the other point of view
and the most delicate. M. Imann has
intuit talent; he knows to compose a
book and present his characters. Be-
sides, he seems to like neither democ-
racy, nor parliamentarism, nor the
Jews. Ile has seen them in Geneva
during the war—the Jewish colnoy,
the most numerous of all the colonies
that had emigrated to Switzerland,
and from which Lenin emerged in
U1l7. Ile spoke of them without sym-
pathy. Nevertheless he, too, helped
to make us know them. lie was among
those who are persuaded that all Jews
are Bolshevists, at least all Russian
Jews. This is incorrect. However
little we may know of the history of
contemporary Russia, still very much
confused to our eyes, we do know that
the most numerous Jewish party, the
Bond, is anti-Bolshevist and has been
persecuted with all the malevolence of
which 1.4.11111 and Trotzky were capa-
ble. One may even say that it is as-
tonishing that there is not one among
them that owns a plot of ground, and
among the individual owners of the
soil are found the most natural and
determined opponents of communism.
That the Jewish laborers of Russia br-
oom. Bolshevists, is not at all sur-
prising; they did as their Gentile ma-
rades. The Jewish intellectuals of
Russia are divided on the question of
Bolshevism, lust like the Gentile in-
tellectuals. This is, I believe, the real
situating; but whatever a Jew does,
it is noticed. If my child digs its fin-
ger into its nose, I do not see it. If
it is that of my neighbor, I say it is
badly brought up.
Finally, whether one wants to or
not, the Jewish question is beginning
in France to enter upon a period of
disinterested, objective inquiry
through our literature. It should he

For the entire year of 1924, Hudson-Essex sales in Detroit and Wayne County have
outnumbered every other make, with the exception of the two Lowest Priced Four-
Cylinder Cars. For the last four months of 1924 Hudson-Essex sales outnumbered all
except the Lowest Priced Four in the world. (Official Registration.)
This is How Hudson-Essex Outsold All Rivals in 1924

The greatest of all Hudson-Essex values is responsible for the great-
est of all Hudson-Essex years. All rivals are distanced in actual proof of
value which is SALES.
And the Coach is the largest selling 6-cylinder closed car in the world
not simply because it provides "Closed Car Comforts at Open Car Cost,"
but because it gives chassis value and performance not equalled within
hundreds of dollars of the price.
