Fluids is called "America's Most Versatile In- strumentalist," playing the alto, soprano, tenor sax and clarinet. He was formerly with Lionel 900,000 Jews in Israel, while the greater part of the Jewish people is still abroad. "Our next step will not be easier than the creation of the Jewish Stat e. It consists in bringing all the Jews to Israel. We appeal chiefly to the youth of the United States and other countries to help us achieve this big misison. "We appeal to the parents to help us bring their children here. Even if they decline to help, we will bring the youth to Israel ... " • • • VIEWS CONTRADICT NOW, IT IS OBVIOUS that these two definitions of Zionism by two leading Zionists made public the same week, are in di- rect contradiction and invoke two different fundamental principles, ideologies and ways of life, al- though both go under the name of Zionism. Dr. Silver's conception is based on the American human- itarian principle of helping Jews in other countries who have no home of their own and need help in establishing one. He is quite right in saying that such a philanthropic aim and task can in no way interfere with one's loyalty to America. Ben Gurion's Zionism is a European nationlistic ideology which claims that Jews are one and indivisable people no mat- ter where they live and that Is- rael is their real home. All other homes are just temporary inns where they remain as guests and aliens until they are 'redemmed' from the 'Galut' exile. It is natural therefore that one of the chief aims of this type of nationalism is to repatriate the exiled children of Israel from their dispersion. Ben Gurion's call to American Jewish parents to send their children to settle in Israel, is quite in line with this fundamental nationalistic prin- ciple. The two distinct types of Zionism have never been more clearly stated. The significance of Dr. Sil- ver's article in "Rear1pe's nirrncf" of nationalism, at least as far as American Zionism is concerned. For what Dr. Silver says in es- sence in his article is that the American Zionist is a friend of Israel who wants to help the new State to become a happy home for other Jews who have no home of their own. Such a Zionist cer- tainly can be a most loyal Amer- ican. Every liberal - minded non- Zionist Jew, even Mr. Lilienthal himself and the American Coun- cil of Judaism, would subscribe to that. Their quarrel has always been with the nationalistic Zi- onist, not with the humanitarian philanthropist. Dr. Silver has made an import- ant move in the non-nationalistic direction, apart from making a considerable contribution to the clarification of the generation-old question of double loyalty.
