(MiNCLUDED PROM PAGE POEM

America. There is a continuous'
flow of such aid coming into Po-
land in the form of millions of dol-
lars, which are not unwelcome to
the Polish treasury.
The Polish government leaders
undoubtedly know that it is not
the economic structure of the Jew-
ish community or its so-called
racial separatism which is respon-
sible for the persecutions. To be
sure, the economic structure of
the Jewish population is quite un-
like that of the rest of the coun-
try. Their original function in the
land was to develop trade and in-
dustry. I'oland had enough tillers
of the soil, and did not need Jews
in agriculture. Moreover, Jews
were forbidden to settle on the
land, and the only fields open to
them were commerce, trades and
crafts in the towns. As a result
35 per cent of Polish Jews are in-
dustrial workers and artisans, 35
per cent are storekeepers, traders
and commercial employes, only 6
per cent are in agriculture, and
the rest are in professions, dom-
estic service, etc. Certainly the
economic structure of Polish Jewry
is not of its own choosing, but a
result of the country's historical
development. It is entirely nonsen-
sical to blame any section of the
population for it.

Inconsistent Policy
Poland does not claim that it has
too much commerce and industry;
quite the contrary. The objection
raised is that the Jews are too
numerous in these fields. Thus the
issue is not economic, but racial
or religious, with the purpose of
replacing Jewish citizens by Chris-
tian citizens in certain fields.

But even here the government's
policy is glaringly inconsistent.
1Vere the government really con-
cerned about the disproportionate
number of Jews in trade and com-
merce the logical remedy would be
to help them enter the ranks of
labor. But, oddly, the practice of
the Polish government has been in
an entirely different sense.
As soon as Poland won its inde-
pendence thousands of Jewish rail-
road workers in Galicia and in
other regions which Germans had
occupied during the war were sum-
marily dismissed. Thousands of
Jews who for years had been civil
servants in Galicia under Francis
Joseph were mercilessly removed
from their posts. In the tobacco
industry — which the government
took over, but which had been de-
veloped by Jews — the Jewish
workers were dismissed en masse,
and refused re-employment. The
200,000 Jews engaged in agricul-
ture are being systematically
hounded and driven from their
farms. Jews are not even accorded
the privilege of working as street
cleaners or snow shovelers. They
are actually being forced to be-
come traders and peddlers, and are
then assailed as an unproductive
element.
No one doubts that the rulers of
Poland are intelligent enough to
understand all this, as well as the
impossibility of Jewish mass emi-
gration. If they still pursue their
inhuman policy it is for entirely
different reasons: First, to divert
the anger of a destitute population
of all the country's economic ills;
by offering the Jews as the cause
secondly, to temper the Endek at-
tacks on the government by offer-

Rutenberg Inspired Agreement
Between Revisionists and
Histadruth
Pincus Rutenberg, owner and
managing director of the Pales-
tine Electric Corporation, was the
one who inspired the labor agree-
ment between the Ilistadruth and
the Revisionists, it was learned
here. The understanding nego-
tiated between the Revisionist
labor organization and the Gen-
eral Jewish Federation of Labor.
signed in Tel Aviv on Slay 9,
resulted from a series of meet-
ings initiated by Mr. Rutenberg
on a suggestion made by him in
Haifa in April. The present
agreement, which provides for a
central labor exchange and dis-
tribution of work according to a
fixed ratio, covers a years' time.
Other labor organizations are to
be invited to adhere to a similar
agreement which cover urban
public works and building tor0J-
ects. The agreement, which was
the first step in reducing and dim-
inating labor troubles in Pales-
tine. will be supplemented later
on. it is hoped, through the inclu-
sion of other urban and rural
projects. For the present, the
agreement is applicable only in
Tel Aviv but will be extended
later to Jerusalem and Haifa.

A birdie tells us that Dr. Chaim
Weizmann made quite a haul in
the stock market recently—with
Spencer and Marks stock, if you
must know—and as a result his
house in London is now under-
going renovation . . . Among the
improvement+ being put In is •
new fireplace ornamented with
genuine porphyry columns which
set back the Weizmann bank ac-
count to the tune of 20 grand.

Henry Montor's long expected
book, "Chatosi," is not dead but
merely dormant . . . We hear it
has reached the point where com-
pletion may be expected at the end
of the summer.

ing this opposition party the Jews
on whom to vent their spleen.
Both these reasons spring from
formidable, mainly political fac-
tors.
Poland's economic situation is
precarious indeed, But not because
three million of its citizens worship
God in the Synagogue instead of in
the Church. It is because with the
end of the World War Poland lost
its greatest market—Russia. Be-
cause of its comparatively back-
ward state Polish industry is un-
able to gain other markets. And
the Polish peasant has little or no
land. I'olish labor and the peasan-
try are well aware that neither the
chronic industrial depression nor
the desperate agricultural situa-
tion were brought about by the
Jews. The large factories, even
those still owned by Jews, employ
Gentile labor exclusively. The
great estates are not owned by
Jews. Neither industrial labor nor
the peasantry stands to gain any-
thing by driving the Jews out of
the country. Hence the reason why
the Polish labor movement and the
Peasant Party oppose anti-Sem-
itism.
The peasant leaders demand re-
forms, a redistribution of the great
estates. The workers demand ener-
getic steps toward reviving indus-
try so as to give them better work-
ing conditions. The unemployed
demand jobs, the destitute demand
relief. The Polish government can-
not satisfy some of the demands,
and is unwilling to institute the
necessary reforms, lest the powers
that be become antagonized. There-
fore it chooses a scapegoat for its
own weaknesses. The great Polish
novelist Maria Dombrowska has
put it quite succinctly when she
says that It is an old Polish cus-
tom to blame others for one's own
incapacities. And the Jew, being
helpless and defenseless, serves the
purpose better than any other de-
ment of the population.
The Jew also Is a convenient buf-
fer between the Endek opposition
and the government. The hatred
of the Endeks and the Pilsudski-
ites, dating back to the first days
of Polish independence, became
red-hot in 1926, when Pilsudski
gained power. Afraid of Pilsud-
ski's iron hand, they then turned
their attention to the Jews and
accused them of ruining the coun-
try by controlling the Pilsudski
government. Pilsudski himself,
recognizing their use of anti-Sem-
itism as a political expedient, kept
the movement in check to a great
extent,
With Pilsudski's death, however,
the government grew weak, and
handed the Jews over to the En-
deks to satiate the latter for a
time. And the government leaders
themselves embraced economic an-
ti-Semitism in order to persuade
the destitute masses that it was
they, the leaders, and not the En-
deks, who make every effort to aid
the poor. And by their monstrous
declaration that the economic ex-
termination of the Jew is welcome
the government leaders have hand-
ed the Jews over to the mob.
No amount of diplomatic and
suave talk can compensate for the
Jewish blood that flows to freely
in the streets of Poland, or justify
an economic pogrom. The govern-
ment itself let loose the beast
against three million of its citi-
zens.
In the Bible it is said that when
a man or woman is found mur-
dered In the city the elders and
judges must go to the city gates
and declare: "Our hands have not
shed this blood, neither have our
eyes seen it." The Polish rulers
cannot say this with a clear con-
science.
But spilt blood has a way of as-
serting itself. Cain too tried to con-
ceal the murder of his brother Abel
by claiming that he was not his
brother's keeper. But the blood
that was spilt did not remain
silent: And He said: What halt
thou done? The voice of thy broth-
er's blood crieth unto me from the
ground . .."
