On the Record

And Israel Heard
OverlooRed in the turmoil which is American Jewish life was
a recent news item about the transfer to Israel of the remains of
Oscar Gruzenberg. To our youth the name may sound strange.
But not to us whose memory goes back to 1913 and the famous
Mendel Beilis trial in Czarist Russia on which hung the fate of
all Jewry perhaps. Beilis, a resident of Kiev, had been arrested
and charged with ritual murder. Such spectacles were nothing
new to Czarist Russia, but the Beilis case was of special interest,
for it was the diabolical purpose of the Czarist prosecutors to
place all of Jewry on the accusation bench via the person of the
accused.
A successful Jewish lawyer in Russia, with an international
reputation, stepped into the picture. He was Oscar Gruzenberg.
The trial was one of the most sensational in history. The Czarist
court and clergy used every possible device to balance the scale in
their behalf: They were reeking with hostility and machinations
to secure a guilt verdict. Press and public were hostile. The cards
seemed to be stacked beyond hope.
The trial assumed the aspect of a cause celebre of world
proportion. It was to us Jews a nightmare and a fright much
akin to that felt by the Jews in Europe before Hitler actually
proceeded with his slaughter. Every Jew felt that his life would
be in jeopardy if Beilis were convicted. The trial was front-paged
in all the newspapers of the world. It was the sole topic of dis-
cussion wherever Jews assembled. Weeks of suspense followed.
As the trial was drawing to a close there was dejection and de-
spondency in Jewish circles.
There was one great hope left. Gruzenberg had been known
as a great trial lawyer capable of swaying a jury. There was also
the faith which sustained us through generations. The lawyer's
plea to the jury was long and convincing. When he ended the
oration he whispered in prayer tune "Hear 0 Israel." There--
was dancing and joy in all Jewish communities of the world when
the wires brought the happy news. Beilis was free.
Gruzenberg remained in Russia until the rise of Bolshevism..
The heads of the new regime are said to have sent a delegation
to the famous lawyer with an offer of a law professorship if he
remained. Instead he left for Paris. There both he and his wife
went the way of all flesh. Several days*before the recent Shevuot
their remains were transferred to Israel for reinternment. Thus
had Gruzenberg's "Hear 0 Israel" prayer been answered.
