forward to defend the Jews, of
whom there are only a few in
Spain, without any press of their
own to defend themselves. Among
these defenders are the treat Span-
ish authoress Concha Espina, and
the great author, Miguel de Una-
muno, whose name became almost
the symbol of liberty at the time
of the persecutions under the dic-
tatorship of Primo de Rivera. Con-
cha Espina published a series of
very fine articles in a number of
papers, under the heading "Israel,"
and Unamuno wrote a fierce con-
demnation of anti-Semitism as
something that deserves only con-
tempt. Forty years ago, he said,
there were in the town where he
has spent the greater part of his
life—Salamanca—a group of peo-
ple who attended lectures by Ed-
uard Drumont, and were convinced
of the imminence of a Jewish peril.
At that time he could not under-
stand the fantastic ideas that
moved these people, and he laughed
at their fears, but today, the same
superstitution has been revived
under the Christian banner of
"Viva Cristo Rey" (Hail Christ,
the King!) He goes on to denounce
anti-Semitism as • survival of the
sinster superstitutions of Medie-
val Europe, comparable only with
the belief in witches, fairies and
people possessed by devils. The
ides of Jews indulging in ritual
murder and poisoning wells, he
says, is no less barbaric than the
medieval practice of burning
witches.
There Is undoubtedly a resur-
gence of anti-Semitism in Spain,
but it would be premature to say
that the movement is One that must
be taken seriously as threatening
difficulties 'for the small Jewish
population that is now living in
The present republic's

would be foolish to underestimate
the strength and the influence of
the parties of the right, the cleri-
cals and the monarchists. Bolshe-
vist ideas are spreading in Spain,
and the growing clash of the Liber-
als and Conservatives on one side
and Bolshevism on the other, may
lead these two parties, at present in
ger, and If such • unification Is
effected, the monarchists will prob-
ably have to renounce anti-Semit-
ism as the price of the support of
the Liberals in the fight against
Bolshevism. For the moment, how-
ever, anti-Semitism has certainly

The pogroms begin on a stu-
pendous scale. Each town is

ing stream of mob passions. The
Jews cannot travel on the trains,
where they are kicked, beaten,
wounded, killed, robbed of their
possessions, their beards ripped
out, frequently hurled out
bodily.
There is not a hole for the
Jews to escape into. The ground
is burning under their feet.
They cast their eyes in all direc-
tions, imploring, imploring, hid-
ing, only infrequently fighting
back . . . but always imploring.
The great Polish nation with
its 19,000,000 people, its peas-
ants and workers, mechanics
and artists, intellectuals and
professionals, soldiers and
priests, all join in the Jewhunt,
all want to have a hand in the
annihilation of the cursed
Christ-killers. . . . If there is
a Polish voice that protests it is
not heard in the land.
Humiliations and outrages
against the Jews pile up thick
and fast. What is most terror-
izing is the news of slaughter
elsewhere in the republic that
spreads like a prairie fire. The
gleeful tidings of butchery are
skilfully disseminated among
the Polish masses to serve as an
incentive and patterns. The
Jew.thirstysinasses are converg-
ing closer and closer, the noose
is tightening. • • • Yesterday
the frightful massacre in the
Jewish quarter in Lemberg; to-
day the carnage in Stanislawow,
Minsk, Kolbuszowa, Vilna.
Coming . . . coming . . . com-
ing . . .!
A, group of Jewish young
men, released from the army
after the collapse of Austria,
organize a Self-Defense Unit
and parade the streets day and
night with fixed bayonets. The
police grumble and threaten;
The Defense group, to the Po-
lish guardians of law and order
maintain, is illegal, has no right
to carry arms. The young Jews
retort that they had four years
of constant warfare in which
they learned to kill and gut bel-
lies as well as their Christian
neighbors and that they are pre-
pared to protect their families
and property with their loves.
The long-threatened pogrom
takes place today. At sunrise
peasants armed with pitchforks,
bayonets, spades and axes, but
with few firearms, and peasant
women pulling light carts in
which to store pillaged goods,
stream into town in- an endless
procession. They are quiet,
ominous and stealthy, acting on
a preconceived plan. The Jews
seek shelter, hiding their pos-
sessions in cellars and holes,
barricading doors and windows.
A stormy silence is in the air.
The signal is given; the mob,
like a burst sack, pounces upon
the houses. . . . With shouts
that rend the air'and strike terror
in the hearts of the concealed
Jews, the mob surges and
smashes and robs house after
house . .. surges ever nearer
and nearer. . . . And then,
from a narrow street, two, four,
six, ten, twenty soldiers, wear-
ing the Austrian uniform, carry-
ing guns with fixed bayonets,
trot into the square. It is the
Jewish militia.
They grip their guns nervous-
ly, points them above the heads
of the seething peasants and
fire. Volley after volley they
fire in quick truculent succes-
sion. The mob grows panicky,
drops the loot and flees in con.
fusion. The militia trots after
the fleeing peasants in admir-
able soldierly order, loads and
fires, loads and fires. There is
no resistance. . .
Paul's relatives gather in the
stone house of a friend. The
building faces the square and is
stoutly shuttered and barricad-
ed. About 30 persons crouch in
one large room; those more
hardy watch the looting through
slits in the shutters. The wo-
men are cowering in corners
and on the floor; they moan and
look fearfully haunted. The men
are pale as sheets. From the
victorious bawls rise to the
gloomy room like subtle emana-
tions from a deadly swamp.
There is something haunting
in,4he articulate passions of a
victorious mob. Each yell
sounds like a death knell to
those exposed to its mercy. The
voices dissociate from the bod-
ies, fly on swift wings and find
their object with impersonal
and deadly effect. The memory
of it grinds itself into the brain
and accompanies one to the
grave. The heart bleeds and
palpitates; one feels sharp ham-
mer blows on the head; pincers
tugging at the heart; one hears
one's blood dripping, dripping,
and each drop weighs like • ton.
And time crawls and crawls,
silently, agonizingly, mockingly.
Paul is at the window, his eye
reared its ugly head in Spain, and
while it is true that as long as the
Jewish population is as small at it
is at present, there is little to fear,
it would, however, be inadvisable
to have any considerable increase
of Jewish population in Spain, be-
cause the anti-Semitic movement
would thrive on any Jewish in-
crease, and the result of that might
be more dangerous than we can
now foresee.
CENTERS TO OBSERVE
7TH ANNIVERSARY OF
HEBREW UNIVERSITY
The Jewish Welfare Board has
recommended to its constituent
societies, consisting of the Y. M.
H. A.'s, Y. W. H. A.'s and Jewish
Community Centers in the United
States and Canada, that they ob-
serve the seventh anniversary of
the opening of the Hebrew Uni-
versity in Palestine. The board has
issued a bulletin entitled "The Role
of Learning in Jewish History,"
in which an attempt is made to cor-
relate this outstanding event in
Jewish history with the Jewish zeal
for learning. The main facts con-
cerning the history and founding
of the Hebrew University are pre-
sented in this publication, as well
as material for a series of club
programs for juniors, intermediates
and seniors, on the historical Jew-
ish attitude towards learning.
The board has also featured the

subjects fur debates, discussions
and oratorical contests.
glued to a chink in the shutter.
He hasn't eaten anything but a
piece of unbuttered stale bread
and that he did not digest. It
lies a hard clump in the bowels
and what with the terror, and
excitement, his intestines knot
up and cause him stabbing
pains. He rolls up and grope
for breath, moaning like a
wounded animal. The ache
comes in periodic waves, and
every time it goes he raises
himself to the window. , . .
A terrified young Jew with a
red beard is running for his life

heels. lie is headed off, a club

knees sink and he falls back
from the shutter as if his brain
had been clubbed out. . .
The sun sets and still the
looting and shouting goes on.
The peasants light torches, run
to and fro like frantic shadows,
bellowing and singing hoarsely.
Of a sudden a voice roars,
"Let's burn the town!" A
thousand voices take up the cry
and send it floating across the
dark penetrating a thousand
rim minds, providing a thousand
aimless wills. with a purpose.
Merciful God! Fire! There is
no escape from fire! "Burn the
town! . . ." Paul forgets his
colic, his terror, the crompled,
mangled Jew under the window.

vulsed by a mad passion for
murder. He trembles visibly
and his mother puts a spasmodic
arm around him, her chest heav-
ing. "Mother," he gasps, his
blue lips tight and his small fists
clenched so that the veins swell,
"I wish I had a machine gun!
I'd climb on the roof! I'd mow
them down! I'd reduce them to
bloody pulp! Bloody pulp!
Bloody pulp! Bloody pulp!"
And outside like a Bacchana-
lian song the words "Burn the
town" pass from drunken mouth
to drunken mouth. Except for
the flickering torches it is pitch
dark.
In another part of town, in a
house protected by the mark of
a cross on its door, sit the post-
master, the priest and the police
inspector. "Burn the town" is
ringing in their ears; they are
pale. This is a hitch in the pro-
gram: burning was not on their
list. The town, to be sure, is
largely Jewish, but fire has no
perceptible patriotic prejudice.
There is the postoffiee building
to be considered, and the nice
tall Catholic church, and the
monastery, and the school, and
the courthouse. . . . Frantically
the postmaster begins wiring
neighboring garrisons for help.
At last one garrison responds.
About 10 o'clock, not a second
too early, a special train arrives.
The locomotive siren keeps on
emitting shrill sounds for about
15 minutes. It is to warn the
peasants to make off with their
loot. The soldiers do not enter
the town but fire several shots
in the air from the station.
Again as.a warning. The peas-
ants see the point. They load
their wagons, fill their bags and
carts and go home.
In the morning the town is
desolate. The streets are
strewn thick with damaged and
trampled wares and furniture.
Feathers from ripped feather-
beds and pillows decorate every
wall,-every roof, every alley and
street. Mournfully, broken-
heartedly, Jewish men and wo-
men and children stalk through
the waste, many anxiously
searching in the debris for lost
property, o there conversing
tragically in bent-backed cir-
cles. . . .
The Jews live in constant ter-
ror. A hundred times a day do
they scurry to their houses and
cellars and barricade themselves.
Their terror is at times ridicu-
lous; they read menace in every
Polish face, and menace there
undoubtedly is; see their doom
writ large in every roistering
soldier or drunken peasant. Has
and
humiliation
persecution
quenched the spark of manhood
in their harassed bodies?
Not so the Jewish youth. At
first the young men fight bark,
but soon they realize the hope-
In
lessness of their struggle.
Poland they ate able to live
neither In peace nor in self-re-
spect. Every avenue is closed to
them; in school, government and
army they would be hunted like
wild beasts in the forest. Only
petty trading if.left to them.
But those yoUrig men have
traveled far from their ghetto
ancestors. No black garbardine
or yellow patch for them who
have fought and bled on a hun-
dred battlefields. . . .
And so a wholesale exodus
begins. Poland does not let
them out But the Jews had
two thousand years in which to
learn to meet force with guile.
Lacking passports, the Jewish
youths resort to bribery and
smuggling. They slip through
the boundaries swiftly and
noiselessly as eels, their aim be-
ing any free port, and civilized
haven. The Poles are aware of
this and it gives them pleasure.
The fewer Jews the better!
Those emigrants are the best
blood and brain in a mediocre
land, but, then, they are only
Jews.,.!
