What a Leading Editor Says
Of Detroit Jewish Chronicle
Heads Sisterhoods
(Continued from Page 1)
The following editorial is reprinted from The
Jewish Post of Indianapolis, one of the leading
Anglo-Jewish papers in the United States, which
alone sells on 2,500 newsstands in New York City.
G. M. Cohen, well-known newspaperman is editor.
It needs no further comment:
DETROIT INCIDENT
"The anti-Jewish disturbances in Detroit warrant
several observations.
"That Jewish courage is not at the low ebb some
of us would believe, or else the impact of the war
has made the Jewish group see its problem clearly,
is indicated in the fact that when advised that Jew-
ish boys were being attacked, fully 500 Jewish
youths, recognizing possible serious harm to them-
selves, congregated at the danger point to do battle.
This type of readiness to meet the attacker can itself
be harmful in that it might have provoked conflict,
a danger which the Detroit Jewish leadership recog-
nized, but it is a healthy and enheartening sign to
see Detroit young people prepare to fight back
against the aggressor.
"Another observation is on the way the accounts
of the situation were handled in the two competing
papers.
"The Jewish News published a long plea from the
community heads urging calmness .and stating that
the events were being exaggerated in the public
mind. At the same time, the editor of The News,
wrote a long editorial repeating the request of the
community leaders for calmness.
"The Chronicle, on the other hand, printed
the request of the community leaders, and a
straightforward account of the disturbances.
Obviously, those not familiar with the circum-
stances and reading the account in The Jewish
News would become alarmed, fearing some gi-
gantic outbreak, for with so much precaution
advised, certainly •something drastic had taken
place. The Chronicle's account, on the other
hand, would satisfy the curious reader, and give
him enough facts for understanding."
