Jews Get Plenty of Advice

".As a highly conscious group. Jews need to
accept the historic destiny that is upon them.
In the mighty struggle that is already begin-
ning, there will be no neutral forces. On the
one side are ranged all the forcer of the old
world that is dying—tyrannous in their effort
to keep back the tide of history. On the other
side are the emergent forces of new life and
aspiration, the van untried energies of the
working masses of the world. The future be-
longs to these revolutionary workers; imper-
eonal economic forces are fighting for them
as the old system :tamers and collapses. If
the. Jew is to put up any fight against the Far
cisi enemy at his throat; if he is to survive
as conscious Jew, bearer of cultural rifts to
the world—he must cast in his lot with the
revolutionary proletariat. There is no other
way."—Rebecra Pitts, in "Jews Face Fascism"
in Opinion Magazine.
