Mr. Slater repeated again and again that the reason he returned to Scotland to stand trial on a charge to which he pleaded not guilty is because he was confident that an English court would judge''him fairly. But Slater suf- fered at the trial because he was born a Jew in Ger- many, and his counsel felt at that time that he should not even be placed on the witness stand for fear that the jury would be prejudiced against him by his ap- pearance and accent. But the wrong that was committed nineteen years ago was finally repaired last month as a result of the indefatigable efforts and the fine spirit of a number of non-Jews who became convinced of Slater's innocence, These men, with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle at the head, by succeeding in establishing his innocence, helped to justify Slater's faith in British justice. 1 = GIAS. JOSEPH-.= I notice where our pugnacious co-religionist, Mr. Charles A. Levine, punched a Mr. Gwynne (a Vanderbilt relative) in the jaw because the Vanderbilt relative pub- lishes a Parisian paper that has been poking fun, with a dash of acid, at Mr. Levine. Some day Mr. Levine may achieve his ambition to be the world's greatest flyer, but as a good-will ambassador he. is in a slag a flop. Sonic of his troubles have been of his own making, and some have occurred in spite of his best efforts to avoid them. But, all in all, if I had the choosing, I would not select Charles A. Levine as the type of Jew to advance the cause of the Jew. I picked this out of the book of Lord Asquith's mem- oirs, which should be of interest to Zionist and non-Zion- ist alike: The High Holy Days Synagogue Problem. With the approach of the High Hol y Days we are again faced by the serious problem that is yearly created with the establishment of m ishroom myna- gogues which spring up over night in many instances to serve the interests only of enterpris ing individuals who seek their personal gains. In thi :kly populated Jewish sections movements are already on foot to con- vert theaters and dance halls into hou, ies of worship, and many of the synagogues which fu lotion through- out the year are expressing anxiety °v.. the fact that many, in chosing a place of worship, con ware the price of seats and turn to the dance hall or the theater to effect a saving. It is undoubtedly futile to atempt to discourage the practice of building three-day-a-year iynagogues for private or semi-private benefits. But no opportunity ought really be permitted to go unutiliz ed in condemn- ing a practice which strikes at the ve ry root of the existence of the synagogue. For if the house of wor- ship is to serve an important purpose i n the commun- ity, it must not be hampered in the rai dng of the pig- gest revenue at its command which con 0s from the sale of seats for the High Holy Days. Which suggests a solution. If the sy 'nagogues were to strive to enlist on their membership rolls the masses of the people, and if they were all to o f (far free seating privileges to members for the Holy I) lys, thus elimi- nating the necessity of placing seats o sale for Rosh llashonah and Yom Kippur, the prat .ice of building temporary synagogues would natural ly be stopped. Many synagogues have already adopt( tl this practice, and there is hope that it will spread a nd thus help to eliminate the danger threatened to th ?. synagogue by the three-day-a-year congregation. Perhaps the enlisting into synagog ue membership of greater numbers of )ews might al so serve to de- crease the number of three-day-a-yea r Jews and in- crease the all-year-round wortiliippers. Socialism and Zionism. There is nothing new or revolution iary in the ore- ation of the Pro-Palestine Committee by the Amster- dam International. In England, the Un ited States, Bel- glum and other lands', Socialist leader ; have on many occasions since the war expressed then them in favor of the movement for the upbuilding Palestine as a home for Jews. .9~ Thus, in England, Ramsay MacDon aid, former La- bor Prime Minister, has not only given verbal indorse- ment of the Zionist movement, but he has also visited in Palestine, and his descriptions of t le work accom- plished there by Jews are among th e Zionist epics. Colonel Josiah C. Wedgwood, Commit der James Mon- tague Kenworthy, Arthur Henderson, Philip Snowden and many others among the British lab bor leaders have establish of a Jew- time and again advocated the establish ish center in their historic homelani I. Two of the leaders mentioned, Colonel Wedgwood and Command- er Kenworthy, traveled to the United States as propa- gandists for the United Palestine App al, and Colonel Wedgwood's book on Palestine, "The Seventh Domin- ion," has attracted wide attention. = M V t M M aZ IflYthis country, the Zionist move n nent boasted of the friendship of the great Socialist lea der, the late Eu- gene V. Debs. Emile Vandervelde o f ' Belgium, upon his return from a recent visit to the Je wish Homeland, has stormed Socialist gatherings in mt iny parts of Eu- rope in favor of a Jewish Palestine. Paul Loebe. So- cialist president of the German Role hstag, has been very outspoken in favor of Jewish nati oval aspirations, and other non-Jewish labor leaders in ether lands have similarly expressed themselves. The ipposition to the movement for the"creation of a Pro-P 2 ilestine Commit- to be tee on the part of Jewish Socialists is art therefore of these Jews interpreted merely as a desire on the p i to be a "holier than thou" group within Socialism. M. Vandervelde, in propagating th 0 creation of the committee, at the meeting of the Socia l ist International . at Brussels, to co-operate in the movem ent for a Jewish Palestine, quoted in the original Ileb •evi' the Biblical prophecy "And they shall not be rent loved any more from their sod." Thia.iquotation, by a Ion-Jew, is more significant than appears on the face of it. In Palestine Jews are returning to productive and p 'actical pursuits. They are literally and figuratively retu rning to the soil, and M. Vandervelde was an eye witnes s to the determi- nation of the Jewish settlers "not to ie removed any more" from it. The action of the Socialists at Brus h tels gives, there- fore, added cause for joy at the ever I : icreased friend- ships that are being gained for Palestin Slater's Compensatio n . After serving a prison sentence of ,18 years for a murder he did not commit, Oscar Slat er has accepted the British government's offer of $30 000 for wrong- ful conviction. This, of course, does not compensate him from the stigma placed on his n ame during the past score of years, nor can it repay hi m for the physi- Dr. Rubinow's Appointment. Dr. Isaac Max Rubinow will, beginning with the first week in September, be the virtual head of the ad- ministrative forces of both the Zionist Organizations of America and the United Palestine Appeal, and his appointment helps tc dispel to a certain degree the disappointments that followed the turbukitt months of strife in American Zionism. The appointnient of Dr. Rubinow to the newly cre- ated post of executive director of the Z. 0. A. and the U. P. A. must be interpreted as more than a gesture on the part of the newly-elected Administrative Commit- tee of the Zionist Organization. For years the Zionist movement was directed by inexperienced doctrinaires. Propagandists turned statesmen, and a group of paid workers began to feel as if the sacred work of Pales- tine's upbuilding was their own inalienable right, to the exclusion of all other elements in Jewry. The failure of the inexperienced elements in Zion- ism was strongly in evidence during the lean years that followed the period of seven fat years. Very sincere and honest and idealistic on the whole, the men who directed the destinies of American Zionism were, nev- ertheless, unsuited for their particular jobs. The per- iod for practical work in Zion also demanded direction by men of practical and tried ability. Even Mr. Louis Lipsky, to whose idealism and devotion the entire Jew- ish world offered praise, was admitted by his own friends to be unsuited fOr the duties that involved the responsibility of guiding the financial and administra- tive works of the movement for Palestine reconstruc- tion. The new Administrative Committee of the Zionist Organization is therefore to be congratulated on its choice of Dr. Rubinow, because it seems to point to a sincere desire on its part to put an end to politics and to turn to constructive efforts. Dr. Rubinow's experi- ence of many years as an administrator, his four years of residence in Palestine as head of the Hadassah Med- ical Unit, his training in social welfare work were among his activities which won for him the respect of the American Jewish community and which should now gain renewed confidence for Zionism. Shortly before the announcement was made of Dr. Rubinow's appointment, the Reflex carried a letter from him in which the new Zionist Executive Director took exception to criticisms of lladassah by that maga- zine in an editorial entitled, "Lovely Hadassah," and. incidentally replied to the ridicule by the Reflex of so-called Zionist philanthropy. Said DT. Rubinow : Why this horror of the word (philanthropy)? If you will insist that the only motive of work for Zionism and for I'alestine must be not "pity and compassion, but the will to power," you will immediately destroy all the threads that tie up the Zionistically-minded Jew from the rest of the world Jewry. I challenge you to point to a single responsible leader of the Zionist movement who would be willing to subscribe to that. ' I have just received from Herbert Samuel a memorandum headed "The Future of Ptlestine." Ile goes on to argue, at considerable length, and with some vehemence, in favor of the British annexation of Palestine, a country the size of Wales, much of it barren mountains and part of it waterless. He thinks we might plant in this very promising territory about three or four million European Jews, and that this would have a good effect upon those who are left behind. It reads almost like a new edition of "Tanered raeli's book) brought up to date. I confess I am not attracted by this proposed addition tojhe re- sponsibilities, but it is a curious illustration of Dizzy's favorite maxim that "race is everything" to find this almost lyrical outburst proceeding from the well-ordered and methodical brain of II. S. Of course the proposal was later carried out by Balfour. Christian love and charity. In a letter to Time, a gentleman by the name of Jenner, identified with the Christ Church Rectory at Dunville, l'a., expresses him- self in these Christian terms: . The Episcopalians just can's get away from that Jew-Turk-infidel complex. It's about time they began to catch some of the spirit of religion and (lid away with the old idea of lumping all of us who disagree with them and bundling us off to Hell. I wish that all publisher.: of Jewish newspapers would get a copy of the Modern View of July 27, and look at the "Political Section." It is the most dignified approach to the matter of political advertising that I have ever seen. There is no objection to any newspaper carrying political advertising. But the way some of them read and some are printed, they are extremely offensive to man and an abomination in the eyes of the Lord. Mr. Rosenthal of the Modern View is to be commended for his good taste. Score one for Dr. Melamed, editor of the Reflex. Last April he scored the Russian government for plan- ning to send Jews to open a new farming territory in Siberia. Dr. NIelamed pointed out at that time that if it was any good the Soviet government would have turned it over to the Russian peasant. He also doubted the sincerity of the Soviet plans to colonize the Jews in the Ukraine and Crimea. Ile said that thus far the Jews have been doing all the spending, while the Soviet has been looking on and applauding. Ile cautioned us that the reason the Siberian project was launched was to divert the Jews from the best agricultural settlements of South- ern Russia (to be favored for the peasant). I am feading a report of a member of the Moscow correspondent of the Jewish Daily Bulletin. Ile says that the faults with the Bira-Bidzhan project are glaring. The principal objection, and it reveals an appalling condition, is that there is almost no goOd dry land suitable for agriculture. There is only enough good soil for 25,000 families, and the trouble is that goodly portion of this land has already been occupied by Rus- sians. The official investigator who prepared the way for this on-to-Siberia movement, Professor Bruck, failed to mention in his survey that the district has a very large portion of swamp land that must be dried before it is fit for agriculture, and he failed to mention that the region is full of mosquitoes. It looks to us, in the tart gunge of the small boy, that the Jews of Russia have been "gYped." It is now regarded as "unfortunate," and in the meantime money was being contributed to the South- ern Russia project, by the Comzet, must now be used to try to straighten out the "bad lands" of Siberia. But what I would like to know is: "Why did the Soviet gov- ernment insist on opening a new Jewish territory it Siberia just when the Jews of the world were bending their utmost efforts to make the Southern Russia farm settlement a success? There is enough food for thought to be found in this jesting allusion in the New Republic to the difference between the Republican and Democratic managers, to pass it along to my readers: With many other people who have worked honestly for Jewish Palestine, who have contributed, may I say, not only by word but by deed, I regret the conflict or the con- flicts which have so unnecessarily acquired a significance It is true when you call the roll of the new Democratic managements - Raskob, Proskauer, Lehman, Olvany, Moskowitz-it has a horrid, rasping sound to Anglo-Saxon ears, and is by no means soothing to the savage breasts of the old- line Democrats of the South. None the less, they step lively-these Raskobs and Moskowitzes-and they do not trample and jostle each other in the humble-puppy fashion which has become more or less chronic with the Works, Moses, Aliens and the rest of the Nordic managers of the Hoover ma- chine. they do not deserve. In my concern for Zionist policies, I naturally tend to ascribe a great deal more importance to what is going on in Palestine than what is going on at Zionist meetings outside. The one conclusion that is to be drawn from this quotation is that the Zionist Organization has found the right man for the right job at the right time, in view of the agreements on the Jewish Agency reached between the Zionists and the non-Zionists. The important question that now presents itself is how the opposition to the present administration will react to the conditions and demands of the hour. Will opposition leaders respond with resignations, or will they join in the work for Palestine without bitter- ness, and by eliminating a fight over personalities? "Their Mischief Returns Upon Their Own Heads." The extent of the meanness which the violent anti- Semitism of European Jew-haters is capable of assum- ing is illustrated in the tragedy that occurred at Wait- zen, on the banks of the Danube, where a group of Christians permitted a non-Jewish 14-year-old boy to drown because they thought he was Jewish. Acording to the story, as cabled to the Jewish Tel- egraphic Agency, a Jewish vacationist who was walk- ing on the shore, called the attention of Christian bath- ers to the drowning boy, but because the alarm was sounded by a Jets' it was taken for granted that the boy, too, was Jewish, and with a shout, "Let the Jew drown, there will be one less," the death of the Chris- tian boy was sanctioned. This is a typical example of the dangers against which warning is sounded by psalmist : hath hal- lowed out a pit, and dug it, and is fallen into the ditch which he hath wrought. His mischief will return upon his own head, and upon his own skull will his violence come down." (Ps. 7. 16). But in this instance it is even worse. They are the fathers who have eaten forbidden fruit, but the teeth set on edge were the teeth of the children. At Waitzen, in Austria, a Christian boy paid with his life for the sins of his elders. • • . .... .......................... Your bitterly partisan and malicious misrep- resentations of the Prayer Book Question in Eng- land and of the Anglo-Catholic party, have quite decided me in not having anything more to do with a paper that is so one-sided . Opposition does not worry us; we are used to that but slander does, so good-by to Time and its alliance with the Jews, Turks, infidels and heretics who claim the right to dictate to the Catholic Church in Eng- land as to the ways of approaching and worshiping God. . Now I wonder if you get the significance of the reference to the "Nordic managers." You have heard, I dare say, a good deal about the wet issue in this cam- paign; and the religious issue, of course; and the Tam- many issue, too. But do you know that there is the issue of the Democrats vs. the high hats? Yes, you will find the Olvanys and the Moskowitzes in the Democratic wagon, but you won't find the Cahots and the Lodges, if you understand what I mean. It is the Nordic issue that is also involved in this campaign. It is the Ku- Klux-100 Per Cent-Protestant-American issue iojected into the fight. It sticks out all over. it's too bid', isn't it, that we cannot have a presidential campaign con- ducted along political lines. Here is a question I am going to put to the Christian Scientist Church. and I would appreciate an answer for publication in this column, which reaches more Jews in the United States than any other medium. The state- ment is made, in which I concur, that a Jew or Jewess who joins the Christian Science Church, automatically severs his or her connection with J11(17118E1. Now, i do not say that a Jew divorces himself from his communal life when he joins the church, but I do say that in affiliating with the Science movement he becomes a mem- ber of a Christian sect and therefore ceases, religiously speaking, to be a Jew. This position is denied by Jews and Jewesses who insist that they have not given up their faith. Therefore, it might be illuminating to hear what the Science Church has to say on this subject, and its understanding of the situation. I shall be glad to give the reply all the space required. I am sorry to see Governor Smith arranging a debate with that ballyhoo minister, the Rev. John Roach Straton. When Smith suggested that he answer Straton in his own church and before his own congregation, which was per- fectly proper and sensible, because Straton had attacked the governor there, I wasn't a bit surprised that the reverend gentleman came back with the suggestion that the debate be held in a bigger place. If he had his way he would hire the Yankee stadium, or if that wasn't big enough, he would get Tex Rickard to lease a prize fight arena capable of holding a couple of hundred thousand persons. 1 confess that I don't like 'clergymen of the Straton type, who have played the spot-light on them- selves, and who represent the narrowest in the religious lift of the nation. A AA v'tn,‘".e t• AAA ............ , Strolling Along Piccadilly Music, Beer and Jews in Strange Jumble of London Job-Seekers. New. Letter from London By EMANUEL ARONSBERG People who are best qualified to judge will tell you that London is a city which "grows upon' one, slowly, but inevitably. Unprepos- sessing- at first sight, partict.iarly if the weather happens to be nasty, as it often is, this vast human bee- hive will reward the observant stranger after the lapse of a few weeks, or months, as the case may be, with a variety of aspects and moods truly infinite. Every turn will then reveal sights and scenes of most unexpected charm and quaintness, historically, architec- turally, and in many other respects. That--there- is a great deal of truth in this, I had occasion the other day to convince myself, as I came upon a sight I had never sus- pected to be found in London; in any caseAL had never heard of it. Strolling in the vicinity of Picca- dilly Circus, I found myself for the first time in my life in Archer street. It is a very short street, but whatever there is of it was fillet) with men carrying all kinds of musical instruments, talking in small groups and walking leisurely up and down as if waiting for something. Too many for an or- chestra, I thought, as I felt my curiosity excited. I then decided to find out, They Were Jews, Most of Them. Approaching a group of three, towards the end of the street, I in- quired what all these musicians were doing there. "Looking for engagements," re- plied the one with the violin. "Yes, and sure to find none," tho 'cellist said sourly, to which the man with the flute merely grinned, "Those Jews are going to take all the jobs," the 'cellist explained, seeing my puzzled expression. "What Jews?" "These, here, there, every- where!" he said, pointing with a sweeping gesture at the crowd. I looked closely. Yes, indeed, they were Jews, most of them, scores, perhaps hundreds, it was ObViolls to me. 1 felt profoundly interested. Now, there are at least two ways of dealing with a person who tells you that he has no use for Jews; you may either turn your back upon such a man and walk away without further parleying, or else -if you are not taken fur a Jew, as in this particular instance-you may find out more about his anti- Semitic grudge by inviting hint to cross the street with you to that public house fur - a drink. I adopted the latter course and my was ;met-pled with ala- crity. They Unburdened Their Souls. After the second round of drinks, tongues having acquired the requisite pliability, my musi- dans were ready to unburden their weary souls. The fiddler had played in America and he spoke with genuine regret of the flesh- pots of New York, After earning 160-$70 a week in New York, naturally the London wages, less than half that amount, seemed pal- try, especially to a man who had been able to work only about three months last year. The 'cellist, however, thought this "plenty," for he had been able to work not more than 23 days out of 365 last year, he assured me. "No chance against the Jews, sir," he explained. The violinist nodded assent. The flute was si- lent and thoughtful. "Still," remarked the fiddler after a while, "still, it is only fair to say those Jews are born with a fid1111, ( 1 . .' 1,lle, exclaimed the 'cellist angrily. Gulping his beer, he continued bitterly: "It is money they are born with, you should say! It is the money that gets them their engagements, and none of their talent! Talent -bosh!" "I don't quite understand this," I said. ,Ay it is easy enough! A 'knicker' to the fellow up that way," he replied, pointing across the street to where the musicians' union had its headquarters, "and the engagement goes to the Jew." Partiality for "Knickers." I had not been long enough in London to know the meaning of a "knicker." The 'cellist enlight- ened me; it means a pound sterling in some jargon or other. There followed a few expletives ad- dressed to the people at union headquarters because of their al- leged partiality for "knickers" and then there were some nasty words said, of course), about those Jews who were said to possess these "knickers" to purchase job... I listened in silence, merely ma - ding now and then, to encourat,e the copious flow of language from the 'cellist. He went on to con - plain that at the orchestral en I of the profession, likewise), there were the Jews robbing an honest English 'cellist of till opportunity fur earning his living. This, be- cause the conductors were mostly Jewish, not to mention the fact that most of the theaters and play- houses of all kinds were in Jewish hands, he said. At this point the flute excused himself and departed. The 'cellist was at his third glass-port this tintie1 instead of beer. The effects seented to tell the more quickly since, as he assured us, he had had nothing to eat that day, and it was now close to 3 in the afternoon. A very decent excuse and valid rea- son for getting drunk as quickly as he did, I thought. But the vio- linist whispered to me: "Drinks like a fish and cannot hold any position." A great, bright light began to dawn upon me. Drink, was that it? lim, I see now why he played only 23 days last year .... I ,can understand why a conductor should not be eager to spoil his performances by keeping a 'cel- list who is chronicially under the weather and getting his notes tangled. Of course, I kept these reflections strictly to myself, for the time being. Jewish Patrons in Majority. Our fiddler seemed an entirely different kind of man. Apparent- ly willing to work hard, of a very pleasant, clean-•ut appearance, with strong artistic features, quite intelligent and widely traveled, he finally volunteered the opinion that, perhaps, it was not really altogether the fault of the Jews if he found it hard to obtain employ- ment in London. Ile admitted that the overwhelmingly Jewish orchestras of New York never pre- vented hint from finding engage- ments, "I reckon they are not all as bad as some of us would make them," he spoke slowly and thoughtfully. "This is a hard world, and they In not always have a fair deal from us, either." "If I had my own way," growled the 'cellist, "I would order all these damned Jews to pack up and get out of the country," "Yes, and close half of our theaters and lust three-fourths of our audiences," the violinist re- marked with a smile. The °thew man glared at him, but said noth- ing. The violinist was fair enough to admit that the Jews formed very often the overwhelming ma- jority of the audience at goo.I musical performances and did nut exactly relish the idea of being left entirely without Jews in Eng- land. A few minutes later the flute burst into the place with a nappy smile; he had just found an en- gagement, while the other two had been enjoying themselves over their gratuitous beer and port and complaining about the Jews mak- ing it impossible to earn their liv- ing. I saw my opportunity at once: rising to go, I drew the at- tention of the two men to the fact that the third had just found work, contrary to their own stor- ies, and I hinted rather plainly that they might have found work, too, if they had not been so fond of their beer. "You talk like a Jew!" the 'cel- list snapped anngrily. "Well, I happen to be one," I ad- mitted cheerfully. The 'cellist looked nonplussed, while the fiddler burst out laugh- ing as the humor of the situation dawned upon him. IC ,, P0right. 1929, J. T. A.)
