land. To the sentimental, orgumentative, coffee-house
philosophers these facts are not to be considered, for
they could prove by all manner of argument that the
Jews had a traditional, sacred right to political and
economic autonomy in Palestine.
This horde of politically minded zealots will now
charge the present failure to lack of persistent political
demand. They will insist that the Zionist Organiza-
tion should have insisted upon this widest interpreta-
tion of the declaration despite the fact that the instru-
ment could have been repudiated at any time if the
stress of circumstances demanded it. However, this
will not silence them, for they are more thoroughly con-
vinced of the efficacy of propaganda than ever before
and will point to the successes of that method to the
late world war.
It was to be expected that the Arab nationalist ex-
tremists would take advantage of the recent action of
Britain and push them to the limit. It is not surprising
therefore to read the anti-Zionist opinions in the Arab
press on the arrival of Lord Plumer, nor are we at all
startled by the demand that Hebiew lettering be re-
moved from the stamps. As a matter of fact, we ex-
pect requests of a more hostile character, but despite
all this there is no reason to believe that Britain will
not attempt to satisfy the claims of all parties with
reasonableness and fairness under all the circum-
stances.
To those who have set their hearts upon a legally
assured home for the Jew in Palestine, with complete
political autonomy, any compromise is difficult to swal-
low and no doubt the suggestion of Dr. Ruppin who
spent 15 years in Palestine, that an Arab-Jewish state
be the present objective, will be repudiated with digni-
fied scorn.
Notwithstanding the accusations against Weizmann
and the Zionist Organization we are of the opinion that
they handled the whole matter to date with delicacy
and understandingand achieved results which men less
tough-minded and with less iron in their souls never
could have achieved.
The days of delusion and propaganda are passed in
the Zionist movement. Facts must be faced no matter
how unpalatable. Accurate economic surveys must
be made and action taken based upon this exact knowl-
edge. Nothing should be done to alienate non-Zionist
good will and financial assistance, and above all it must

to the British Empire. Some may consider this a slave
attitude because it is not noisy bravery, but to us it is
rather a realistic one which tries to envisage all the
facts.
The coming year is indeed critical; Weizmann and
his colleagues need the whole-hearted co-operation of
all who would realize the age-old dream of Israel.

English Censorship.

The suppression of Eugene O'Neil's "Desire Under
the Elms" together with four or five other plays by
the British censor gives us no feeling of elation. How-
ever, it does destroy much of those pretentions of liber-
ality and broad] ess which have been the boast of Brit-
ishers, who all too frequently laughed at us for our
provincialism. This same play caused no little stir in
New York during a time when the censorial spirit was
at its height. Even blase and cynical New York suf-
fers from the periodic suppression mania. It blazed
forth with special torridity and zeal last winter, giving
the Play Jury an opportunity to function. After the
Play Jury, which was made up of intelligent, broad-vis-
ioned people, had seen all the questionable plays it
approved every one of them. The tender morals of
New York could stand the strain of these erotic, mor-
bid productions, was the verdict. No little credit for
this decision was due to the robust and critical attitude
of the dramatic critics, who were practically unanimous .
in their opposition to any censorship except the cen-
sorship of the public, which would either approve or
disapprove of the plays by their attendance or absence.
Another curious twist in British censorship was the
case of Pirandello's "Six Characters in Search of an
Author." This unique drama was played in New York
three years ago without causing the slightest alarm
among those who would guard the morals of the thea-
ter goer. The British censor, Lord Cromer, permits the
play in Italian, but refuses to allow the impressionable
Britishers to be contaminated by an English produc-
tion. This is unfair discrimination or perhaps the Ital-
ians or those who understand Italian are such hardened
roues, such thoroughgoing decadents, that nothing can
further damage their morals. Whatever be the case,
the Italians and those who know the language are not
denied one of the rare exquisite treats of the season.
We had a similar instance in the city of New York in the
case of "The God cf Vengeance." This play has been
performed on the Yiddish stage for 10 years to our
knowledge, but when Schildkraut put it on in English
such a howl was raised that it was suppressed. What
the Yiddish theatergoer accepted as a realistic portray-
al of one phase of Jewish life, without causing him to
surrender his self-respect or seriously damage his mor-
als, was suddenly conceived to be too strong food when
translated into English. We would recommend to
some scholar an examination of the subject of the effect
of language on morals. These moral metamorphes are
curious products; we do not think the language is re-
sponsible; we would rather seek to find the causes in
the backgrounds, the habits and the traditions of the
people. This puritanic approach and attitude is main-
ly responsible for the wholly unreasonable and unten-
able position that a Jew who understands Yiddish and
English may see "The God of Vengeance," but one who
understands only English may not. The formula is
