Dr. Wise's Address
In his stirring address, Dr. Wise
severely condemned the statement
made in New York on Saturday
by Dr. Samuel II. Goldenson in
Temple Emanti-E1 of New York.
Dr. Goldenson criticized the popu-
lar elections as being Hitler-like,
and Dr. Wise declared that any
one who refers to efforts on the
part of Jews to organize demo-
cratically as being Hitler-like
writes himself out of court in
dealing with Jews.
Dr. Wise's statement in reply
to Dr. Goldenson appears in an-
other story on the first page of
this issue.
Affirming the reports that he
will lay down his office as presi-
dent of the Zionist Organization,
at the convention to be held in
Detroit in July, Dr. Wise stated
that anyone who succeeds him will
undoubtedly be a person who will
help in the advancement of Pal-
estine's reconstruction.
Dr. Wise outlined the history
of the Jewish Congress movement
and said that the inspiration for
it came from the man who may be
spoken of in the same breath with
Theodor Herzl—Mr. Justice Louis
D. Brandeis. He declared that
Justice Brandeis is "the greatest
Jew of his time and one of the
noblest Jews in all history." An-
swering the attacks upon the Con-
gress, Dr. Wise said that the op-
ponents are fundamentally mo-
tivated by dislike for the demo-
cratic way in Jewish life. lie
charged enemies of the congress
with being "utterly un-American
in their opposition."
In connection with the Ameri-
can Jewish Congress sessions in
September, Dr. Wise announced,
leaders from Jewish communities
in 25 countries throughout the
world will attend sessions of the
administrative committee of the
World Jewish Congress, on Sept.
3, 4 and 5.

Jewish rights and to register their
views on the referendum question
asking whether American Jewry
favors the creation of one all in-
clusive agency on the democratic,
representative basis in defense of
the Jewish status.
The officers of the American
Jewish Congress report a steady
stream of interest in the election
and referendum and the demand
for registration certificates from
thousands of individuals unaffili.
ated with local or national organ-
izations.
All the national groups within
the congress are actively engaged
in seeking the enrollment of their
membership wherever they may
live. Last Sunday, the Mizrachi
Organization of America held a
conference of its leaders at hotel
Pennsylvania in New York where
a plan of action to bring about
the full membership of this or-
ganization was adopted. A week
earlier, a special convention - of
the Labor Zionist grolips was held
at the Manhattan 6dera Ilouse in
New York City for the some pur-
pose. The Independent Order

NEW YORK. — The American
Jewish Congress made public a
reply to the statement issued by
B. C. Vladeck, David Dubineky
and J. Baskin, officers of the Jew-
ish Labor Committee, attacking
the referendum and the national
democratic elections of the Amer-
ican Jewish Congress. and refus-
ing to participate therein.
The American Jewish Congress,
in its statement, calls attention to
the fact that negotiations had
been going forward for some time
to secure co-operation for a united
defense against anti-Semitism on
the part of all central bodies, and
that the issue on which these neg-
otiations with the Jewish Labor
Committee among others have
broken has been on the question
of democratic representation. It
asks the Jewish Labor Committee
to explain this. The American
Jewish Congress, in its statement,
asks why the Jewish Labor Com-
mittee, which has been willing to
co-operate with the American
Jewish Congress and other organ-
izations on occasion, considers co-
operation on an all-inclusive basis
harmful.
It asserts that the views of the
leaders of the Jewish Labor Com-
mittee are not shared by the mem-
bership of the organizations com-
prising the Jewish Labor Commit-
tee. It charges the leadership of
the Jewish Labor Committee with
negating the integrity and soli-
darity of the Jewish people.
Tellers' Committee
The counting of the ballots was
in charge of a tellers' committee
headed by the following:

man, Mrs. M. H. Zackheim, Morris

DR. WISE ANSWERS
CONGRESS CRITIC
(CONc`tITDEO FROM 'FACIE ONE)
a direct acceptance of the racial
philosophy of the Hitler regime,
that racial difference means and
most mean racial inferiority, the
thing most dreaded by the Jewish
members of Temple Smarm-El,
New York, or the Jewish members
of St. Thomas church.
Racial identity or integrity
within the totality of American
life implies neither radical dif-
ference in any American sense
nor racial inferiority in any sense.
This is a wanton assault upon the
loyalty and integrity of every ra-
cial and religious group in Ameri-
can life. I am as truly an Ameri-
can, though a Jew of Central Eu-
ropean birth, as is Governor Mur-
phy of Irish Catholic descent or
Senator Vandenberg of Dutch
Protestant background.
I am not less but more of an
American, because as Siresident
of the American Jewish Congress,
I seek to organize my American
fellow Jews upon a platform of
unyielding resistance to every
anti-American purpose. Morally
I would thrice arm my fellow-
Jews that they may stand rem-
lute and indeflectable against ev-
ery threat and invasion of anti-
democratic purposes.
As for the Congress being used
to play the game of politics or to
be exploited in political interests ,
which is the second of Dr. Gol-
denson's fears, this is but another
expression of Jewish self-contempt
and self-belittlement, too com-
mon among the earlier groups of
American-Jewish immigrants of
whom Dr. Goldenson chooses to
be a representative. If he and
his kind respected his fellow-Jews,
that is the lowlier and unprivi-
leged masses, a little more he
could not utter such an aspersion,
which is belied by 20 years of the
life of the A nassicts.. -Jewlsh
press. No Jew in America has
fought more zealousy for 40 years
than I against any and every
manifestation of a so-called Jew-
ish vote whether in the interest
of a Tammany Hall Judge or even
of a Presidential candidacy.
As for the Jew who is "merely
a Jew," does the Jew descend
man. in memory of their daugh-
ter, Pearl; J. Hootner, Max Silver-
man and Charles Snits made con-
