Noted European

JACOB LESTSCHINSKY The (rathor of the follovring article, an outstanding Jewish economist of Europe analyzes the changes,-which have taken place in the territorial and social structure of: "the Jewish people.—Editor.

•-•"•" Two processes of development during the last century most, clearly characterize the^Hebrew people; the change of their habitation, and that of rearrangement. The result of the former is epansion and concentration and the consequence of the latter is the appearance of new classes and their differentiation."Both processes started at the\same time-arid continued," to influence each other considerably. The whistle of the first locomotive in 1825 was the herald not only of the feature exploration of new parts of the world previously unsuspected, and undreamed of in the history of human progress and the amassing of material and cultural treasures, but also the forerunner of the approaching change in the life in the then small Jewish people, their rapid increase and epansion over the entire world and their penetrating social transformation.

The enormous, quantative growth •>f the Jewish people the like of

-which is not to be found in Jewish history, the disappearance of the Polish agrarian feudal systems, the abolitibn of serfdom in the whole of Eastern Europe, the rapid rise of capitalism in the middle of Eastern Europe and through which new sources of industry and ; occupation appeared, but particularly . the vanishing of the role of the middle-man by means of which the majority of the Jewish people found their source of existence—all these events and happenings inducted large masses of Jews to change their geographical abodes and their social adjustment, compelled them also to- look for new places in the-world v and to secure new occupations in society.

Spread Over Globe The revolution in technique., and industry which entirely changed the appearance of the world in the course of the nineteenth century, creating new, unexpected means of transportation, establishing connections between the remotest countries of the world, thus removing the center of industrial life from the flat country places to the cities and transforming the city classes the chief elements in the making of human history—those revolutions' at the same time also

states, while nearly on«-third of their numbers live in the 15 greatest cities of the worldwhere they share the life about them. Never before havs "the • Jewish-people been so rich in' numbers; This remarkable increase of the Jews during the last century "establishes the fact that under the influence • of the new' favorable condition's of life the biological energy, of the Jewish people has begun to show new fruits. And this happened in a perfectly normal manner ;.not through a higher birth rate, but'in consequence of a considerably diminished mortality.,.

Now, however, the greatest problem which confronts the Jewish people is that of conservation, for a certain amount of assimilation with and absorption by their respective environments is almost unavoidable.

Small Jewish congregations particularly are threatened with disintegration. While formerly small Jewish settlements among the primitive peasant population and under the feudal systems could manage to preserve their appearance and maintain intact their own ways of living they are now undoubtedly affected by the various social and cultural changes of the new political organizations.

Only large Jewish centers will be able to resist the pressure of their surroundings and .maintain their institutions, ways of life, their historical traditions and their cultural ideas and ideals.

caused the spread of the Jews over the entire globe, their settlement in cities and their concentration in denser masses. While some of the old Jewish classes rose to a point of becoming dominant groups, others experienced oppression and exploitation.

This extraordinary settling in the cities also offered many opportunities for various activities in financial and commercial fields in which the Jews had a considerable amount of experience and after many centuries during which the Jewish people led the life of a wandering middle-class nation among the settled J peasant populations, they found themselves at last in the nineteenth century in their right element and proper.sphere of activity.

This feeling of being at home and enjoying equality was particularly appreciated by the newly arisen proletarian urban - Jewish classes who grew up with the similar classes of the surrounding races and together with them had to overcome the difficulties of development from despised outcasts to an organized, fighting and self-respecting class, cherishing new social ideals. This sentiment of: civil and class :eqaality could only originate in .the atmosphere of the modern, -urban society, in the activities of which the Jews fully participated- Such feeling/was impossible in former times when they lived on the farms of the feudal landlords or in the peasants'. Villages in the midst of those primitive economic organizations which virtually separated them from the rest of the world.

Ghost of the Past And, though occasionally^ under special circumstances, the Jew could be, of some social service even then, he. could never become organically connected with them, because of their peculiar and widely divergent arrangements. This . peculiar social position brought about the tragic character- of the Jewish existence, socially, politically -and culturally which cost the Jews many sacrifices and often threatened them with complete annihilation. Now, however, due to their constant increase among the city dwellers, the Jewish people have gradually become similar to their environment. However, the favorable opinions regarding them because, of their former unfortunate occupation as small trades people, usurers, owners of. country inns -and middlemen, did not disappear and they were therefore intensely hated by the peasant populations, as can be seen from the historical records of the Polish and Ukrainian inhabitants.

The Jew was therefore compelled to remain i n ' h i s closed circle. In Germany his fate was not so tragic on account of the more favorable position of German people generally who were culturally superior toJSasfc European nations, due to their early abolition of the feudal system. The social chances and economic develop? meats which took place in the last century induced the Jewish people to divest themselves of their peculiarities and join the peoples among whom they were living. They also "began taking active interest in the social and political institutions of their environment. Whilst, it is true that in some respects there still exists a certain amount of exclusiveness and some, social banders are- not lacking even in our time, the sharp edge of discrimination; -which tras prevalent in former times, is now removed.

CHANGE OF POLICY We were mildly startled this week to learn that the Soviet Government had guaranteed the Manischewitz Company of this country to deliver a minimum of two million pounds of matzoth for the Jewish population for the coming Passover holidays in April. The Soviet's underwriting of the prompt, free and safe delivery of these matzoth or pay the cost of the parcels is a culmination of a four-year effort on the part of the United States concern to have the Soviet authorities permit the Russian Jews to have matzoth for Pesach.

The about-face on the part of the Soviets seems inexplanable. In the past the approach of the Passover season has been the signal for a virulent state-directed campaign against religion and against matzoth, both destructive and demoralizing in nature. Every possible coercion or inducement was employed as an ally of the antiPassover workers, and the use of unleavened bread by the Jews was officially denounced and prohibited, if we are to believe the reports carried in press dispatches. Perhaps the Soviet heads have decided that it may be best for their purposes not to shackle the Jews spiritually. On such succeeding Passover they have made less and less inroads and have found more resistance among the Jews still adhering to the traditions of their ancestors. As ever, on the high-roads of Jewish history, the inner heart of the real Jew has remained true to his ideals.

Or, again, perhaps the Soviet dictators have in a psychological or analytical mood decided that by their prosecutions during the Passover season they were strengthening the very underlying principles which they seek to undermine. By their action they were making the Jews in Russia think they were in another Egypt, suffering the tyranny of another type of Pharoah. By their campaigns they were but reminding the Jews of the great truth affirmed by Passover itself—that liberty is the inalienable right of every human being. -The Feast of Israel's freedom, its celebration is Israel's homage to the great principle of human freedom. And in the Russian Jews' "passive resistance" the Soviets perhaps are coming to the realization that our great men are heroes of patience and suffering and idealism, not knights of the sanquinary battlefield.

The Soviets may be loosening up religiously.

However, if they believe that by freely allowing the use of matzoth they can thereby lull the Russian Jews away from their religious observances —by removing the necessity for their being religious conscious—they err. "Kingdoms arise and kingdoms pass away, but Israel endureth foravermore," the Midrash beautifully states, and when the present regime is relegated to the history of the dim past the Jewish people will still oe celebrating their liberty from Egypt's slavery.

For a people who disdain the present but live in Tope for the future are, like that hope, eternaL

HARRY H. LAPIDUS (From Denver Jewish Intermountain News.)

The violent death of Harry H. Lapidus in Omaha last Tuesday is the kind of thing that casts a doubt over the reality of the very ground upon which one plants a foot. Yesterday we knew him as a dynamic communal force—a man whose social mindedness was wedded to a driving energy and enthusiasm that were potent to bring others into the fold of communal endeavor. Today we find his name and portrait emblazoned . in newspaper headlines above a sordid tale of his murder at the hands of a gunman. The technique of modern journalism is quick to insert the insinuating sidelights. He is referred to as having made enemies in the course of a hectic political career. There are suggestions of revenge in connection with a fatal accident in which the dead nan was involved; and of interference in the marital plans of an employee. His name and fame are in the hands of modern journalism, which brooks neither delicacy nor restraint; ; Nevertheless, to the great host of his friends :md admirers, in Denver as well as. ia Omaha, the name afid reputation of Mr. Lapidus are safe from disparagement To the National Jewish Hospital lie was fa friend tried and true, whose works will oear the gratitude of its beneficiaries for a generation t6 come. His infectious enthusiasm, implanted! upon the co-workers in his philanthropic anterprises, will continue to speed them on in -heir devotion to community welfare.

In Omaha the local Jewry coined a wordC&pidism. It stood for zeal in the cause of human velfare; It expressed itself in a readiness to meet he demands of society for a helping hand to the Jowntrpdden—to the bewildered immigrant; to

News.

•

The city of Omaha, Nebraska, is in mourning for the loss of its first citizen, Harry Lapidus, who last week was slain by cowardly and unidentified assassins. We mourn with our sister community the great loss suffered by virtue of the dea^h of a man recognized throughout the nation as humanitarian and philanthropist, who gave generously of his time and money to his race, his state and his nation.

Harry Lapidus was a representative Jewish leader. Like many of his contemporaries he came to this country an immigrant boy when nine. His forty years of residence in America were fruitful ones, filled as they were with accomplishment in both material and cultural realms. Hardly a national or international Jewish group failed to call upon him. for aid and counsel. He served on executive committees or as a high official in such bodies as the National Council of Americanization* the Jewish Social Service commission, the National Farm School, the Jewish theological seminaries of Chicago and New York, the United Palestine Appeal, the National Jewish War Campaign, the National Jewish Hospital for Consumptives at Denver, the National Conference of Jewish Social Work and many others.

In his own community of Omaha virtually every communal project called upon his rich personality for leadership or support. He was a founder and the first president of the Jewish Community <3enter of that city and served both the Jewish and general communities in many ways. Frequently appointed to various civic and governmental bodies in his own state, he was high in its political councils.

Harry Lapidus deserved the most glowing tribute which the language of man, so-poor and helpless before such exigencies, might phrase into words. All of us must of necessity remain comparatively inarticulate before that grim reaper who takes from our midst those whom we have learned to love, whether the individual so removed be the most prominent or the most obscure of mankind. W,e mayj only echo the grief of bis friends at the loss of Harry Lapidus, •who-has become one with The Great Silence which separates the living from those who live only in memory.—The Kansas City Jewish News.

EMBITTERED YEVSEKS The Soviet Government is the most liberal in the world to racial minorities. Usbeks, Turkomans, Georgians, Ukrainians—all the various groups whose languages and cultures were ruthlessly suppressed under the old Czarist policy of "Russification," now are permitted and even encouraged to foster their native languages and literatures. The Soviet Government is literally a federation of republics.

The Jews, too, are permitted to develop their cultural autonomy. Except for the Jewish religion which, together with all other religions, is discouraged. Jews are allowed to form an independent group if they so desire. In Crimea and in far Siberia (Bira-Bidjan) independent Jewish republics are being developed.

The Yevseks (the Jewish section of the Communist party) is, as is the case with many Jewish groups elsewhere, more royalist than the king.

In the anti-religious campaigns their persecution of religious Jews was exceptionally .severe. Their attacks on the non-communist Jews were unbelievably virulent.

This has led them recently to oppose the establishment of factories for Jews in Crimea.

Their paper, "Ernes," declared "We are opposed to creation of Jewish industrial centers anywhere inJSoviet Russia," The reason given for this opposition is that the establishment of such centers plays into the hands of the Jewish nationalists.

The logic is difficult to follow. If the Soviet Government encourages every variety of Tartar and Tukoman nationalism, then why oppose Jewish nationalism ? If, as a matter of fact, the Government is building a nationalist center for Jews in Siberia, why is similar work wrong in Crimea?

There is, apparently, no logic in the attack on the Crimean plan. The Yevseks have become so embittered against their fellow Jews, that they will even oppose a regular government policy in order to give vent to their hatred. Russian Jewry can expect nothing but cruelty from the Jewish Communists. They are better off now that the government has removed the Yevsektia from official control of Jewish affairs.

MRS. COHEN HAD WON THE lottery with the lupky number, 43. A young nephew, trained in several universities, inquired how she had selected the winning figure. "First I thought of 6," she replied, " a n d then I thought of 7; I multiplied them, and got 43."

"But, Mrs. Cohen," said the youth, "six times seven makes 42, not 43."

"What difference does t h a t make?" said Mrs. Cohen, ""111 win the lottery and you can keep your education."

RABBI SOLOMON FREEHOF S editorial: 'A Medal for the Archbishop," in the "American Israelite" of Dec. 17, speaks with excellent insight regarding the recent award of the "Permanent Commission on Better Understanding," sponsored by an Eastern Jewish weekly. He calls the performance "humiliating," "unpleasant" and lacking in "dignity and good taste."

"When a Commission, sponsored hy a Jewish newspaper, gives a medal to a Christian for promoting better relationships between Chrisf n and Jew, it seems a. little obsequious. It is always we who make the advances, Synagogue Brotherhoods constantly invite Church Men's clubs to fellowship dinners. The invitation is rarely reciprocated. When we stage so grand a Celebration over & Christian who opposes anti-Semiiism, are- we not a bit profuse in our gratitude?"

The time has come to speak out regarding this *'award." Last year Mr. Newton D. Baker was its recipient; this year Archbishop Edward J. Hanna. Mr. Baker is a distinguished publicist of Protestant faith; Archbishop Hanna is a learned Catholic, of humane viewpoint, liberal outlook and international repute. It is regrettable that both these men were placed in the embarrassing position of being asked to receive a medal for ordinary acts of courtesy and friendship.

Both men must*have been overcome with amazement when the notice of their choice came to them.

In the second place, we may inquire by what authority this "Permanent Commission/V sponsored by a Jewish "weekly, takes -rit upon itself to speak for American Jewry. To be sure, wide publicity came to the newspaper, with excellent repercussions in its advertising campaign; I am willing to assert that one of the best: "selling-points" of the advertising solicitors is the activity of the paper in the "Better Understanding" movement.

At every point, among Jews with Christian inclinations and Christians with inclinations to reach the Jewish buying "market," I am certain this award is consistently capitalized. This is a form of commercial parasitism which upstanding Jews everywhere should repudiate. A small group of unscrupulous persons is following the same pernicious tactics which characterized the Rabbis and laymen who underwrote the cinema, "The King of Kings."

In the, third place, the AwaTd damages Jewish self-respect. It recalls the days when Jewish "ShtadInidi" would make gifts of gold to Christian bishops and princes who sheltered Jewish women and children during pogroms. We are not living in the Middle Ages, but in the 20th century. We have no illusions that Anti-Semitism h a s abated ox disappeared under the hypocritical ministrations of "Better Understanding Commission" linked to Jewish weeklies seeking subsidy, subscriptions and advertising. The millenium has not come in universities, employment, social and political life because an illustrious laymen and an illustrious churchman have been cornered into accepting a dubious compliment from a few Jews. The Jews of this country are made the laughing-stock of their non-Jewish neighbors by such practices.

If any award was to have been made why did. it not go to Rev. John Haynes Holmes, than whom the Jewish people in this country have no finer friend?

Unfortunately, however, in the eyes oi these "Better Understanding" folks, Dr. HolmQL is a Zionist and a bosom friend of certain Jews whose names are anathema to- them.

But this should be the last year this Medal is to be awarded. A Protestant and Catholic have received it. Dayyenu! It is enough.

Now let the Comment of award; present it to the most prominent; _Jew who takes up cudgels against";the award, for having performed a j^enuine and historic service to the cause of Jewish self-esteem in this country, and a more healthy relationship: between Jews and Christians. And for the brilliant discoveries of the idea of the Medal Award, I suggest that a booby prize be donated.

this is a theme of a sociological interest, affecting the life and fortune cf multitude, including Jewish parents.

As an occasional practice, Rabbis should have utmost freedom to discuss vital themes of the moment.

Recently a Rabbi was criticized by another Rabbi for discussing books and plays; the critic should have i-oted also that the Rabbi in question also preached on "Mooney and Billings: Will They Be Freed?"

He should recall the story of the chef who prepared a delicious meal for Paderewski. The great pianist sent in a message of congratulation after each course, saying the so^p was marvelous,, the entree superb, the salad perfect. He was detained, however, for a few moments by the conversation of his tablemates from forwarding a word of approval to the kitchen regarding. A waiter tl-creupon tapped Mr. Paderewski JQ the shoulder and said: "The chef wants me to 4ell you that the desert is remarkable also."

By the same token, the "Mooney-Billings" address was worthy ->f comment, and so, too, Rabbr Issertnan's theme; so, too, ma»-y of the sermons of Rabbis Emil G. Hirsch, Joseph Krauskopf, Leonard Levy and Gustav Gottheil, Ibeson's plays formed material for semronic discussion, just as O'Neill's dramas today.

Economic themes, likewise, when they were of distinct sociological application, received their share of consideration. Rabbis sometimes overdo the "timely topics," but there is x reasonableness in the choice of theme as much as in the avoidance of it. I note that Rabbi Julius Gordon of St. Louis on Dec. 18 discussed: "Is the Cloud as Black as It is Painted? "3ased on Eugene Higgins' Prize-winning Painting "The Black Cloud."

But I also note that on Sabbath jnurning Rabbi Gordon discussed: "Israel in Egypt," apparently without reference to the present place of worship of the Shaare Emeth Congregation, namely the Second Baptist church.

Well,' I told you, this rabbi spoke with an accent, 3nd when he' pronounced his own sentence, it was like this: "If the Jew will adhere to his faith, he will reach the pinochle of his glory."

The congregation ..s a whole was rot too profoundly versed in English, but this ' sentenc seemed less vague to them than the rest of the sermon. ','He plays pinochle," they whispereb one to another. "He must be alright," and so they elected him.

WHAT—NO BEARD? Sol Cohen, prominent Zionist, to whom I am indebted for the preceding story, also tells one about Rabbi Abba Hillel Silver. .

It was in the days when suffrage .went about the land demanding v tes for women. Rabbi Silver was a. prominent speaker for the suffrage movement, and one day, he was sent by the suffrage headquarters to West Virginia to speak for the cause.

He was told that a delegation of suffrages would await him at the railroad station in the West Virginia town.

Rabbi Silver, arriving at the town got off at the station, but no ladies came up. fie looked about and finally saw a group of women, eyeing this man and that but ignoring him. Finally, they turned the spotlight of their eyes onhim—hesitated and hesitated some more. . Finally, they came, "up to him.

"Excuse .• us, but we are looking for a Rabbi Silver. You couldn't be him?" they said apologetically.

"Yes, I am Rabbi Silver," responded the Clevelanb rabbi. .

"Oh, for goodness sake? but Rabbi, where is your beard?" chorused the ladies.
