The Promise of tise Future "The- devil's intention," the Polish Foreign minister in exile, August Ziileski, has termed the Lublin "reservation." "The natural opposition of authoritative Jewish leaders to the Lublin 'reservation' is a self-understood matter," Count Zaleski declared. "This is a malicious plan aiming to provoke the Polish population against the Jews and simultaneously creating a spirit of depression among the Jews themselves." Had Count Zaleski spoken thus six months ago, it would have, sounded a little like the pot calling the kettle black, because the present Polish government with headquarters at Angers is made up oi members o£ the notorious Camp of National Unity, the group that up until the very invasion by Germany was constantly speaking; of Poland's "three million excess Jews." The avowed intention o£ the Camp of National Unity was to exile Jews, to hound them from the country by every sort oi: pressure—and they did not stop short of murder as the wave of pogroms oi' l'JoiJ-37 proved. If their measures were a little less drastic than the Reich's, this shortcoming must be laid to the German reputation for thoroughness. Those are the "excess" Jews who have now been enrolled in the Palish army lighting in France. Those are the Jews for whom there was no place in their homeland and for whom there was nothing but emigration. *

•

Now Poland weeps for her Jews. The Polish army leaders express great indignation at the German practice of bombing the synagogues during the High Holy days. They speak now with tears of the heroism of its Jews who labored even on the Sabbath to build defenses. They denounce Nazi persecution. Tlie diplomatic representatives in foreign countries' have been instructed by Count Zaleski to drop their "former attitudes" regarding Jews. They are no longer to be harassed abroad as they had once been by their government at home. "In the free Poland, the Jews will enjoy equal rights granted to all citizens, without racial or religious distinction," the foreign minister has promised.. This was the promise and the hope of 1919. These were the same words uttered to the Jews and because of them they rose to the support of the infant republic, only to endure twenty years of disappointment and misery. All the rights Poland now promises the Jews had before —on paper. Even as the exiled government announces its good faith, Jews in Wilno were subjected to the brutality of the Polish Endeks. * # * * However at such a time we will not question the sincerity of the Polish government. A war, a catastrophic war,, has convinced the Polish leaders their Jewish policy was wrong, the creation of a false "Jewish problem" was an insult to three million citizens, who, Avhen the real test came, responded and suffered. , • • Once it was thought that nothing worse could happen to the Jews of Poland, that they had tasted the dregs of misery. But evidently such was not the case. But sharing their misery is all Poland. Jews and Poles both wear badges now, to impress on them their inferior status. The only difference is that the Polisii badge has a red cross on it. We can do nothing now but put our trust in Count Zaleski's words. We have no choice but to hope he speaks the voice of a future Poland. There won't be three million Jews in a reconstituted nation, because how many have been murdered ho one knows, how many have fallen victim to epidemics is still to be learned. Thus Polish Jewry is paying for hope in the"future.

Vision and Revision By EABBI FREDERICK COHN

•'

It has been said "Where there is no vision, the people perish." Vision is a pre-requisite to all fruitful action. First the dream, then the dream's realization. In this sense vision becomes the most practical of the fac-" ulties of man. The great men, after all, have been the great visionaries, the "seers," who because they saw, and saw in advance, inaugurated the great eras, and the resounding deeds that have gone echoing and re-echoing down the corridors of time. It may even be said that nothing great was ever achieved without the deed being preceded by the idea; the thing, by the great revolutionary thought. "Beware," said Emerson, "when God lets loose a thinker on the earth." He lets loose the deeds that transform the world. Great as is vision, re-vision is also equally great and equally necessary and indispensable. The vision itself has to be* revised, for the sake of clearer vision. All the great Revolutions have been revisions; revisions of existing forms of society, of political institutions, of modes of thought, action, and belief. The revisions have been revolutions, and the revolutions have been revisions. The world at the present time is undergoing a great revision. This is due mainly to the growth of science, and only partially to education. John Dewey has shown ia his book, just published, "Freedom and Culture," that a nation can be highly educated, as Germany, and yet not be proof against the greatest re-actionarism and the most incredible actions. Yet mental growth, and above all, experience, develop that maturity and changed condition that bring about revision in. one's thoughts, acts, and life. Otherwise the world would remain in the same old rut. Otherwise there would be no progress of any sort. And there would be no hope for the correction of present evils by the removal of prejudice, error, and the grossest ignorance. It is amazing, and discouraging, how men cling to the most ancient notions, to fixed beliefs, to obstinate opinions, to long dispfoven. statements, to exploded theories, to what are pure (or impure) legends, to absolute inventions in "history," to degrading superstitions and incredible dogmas in religion, in both belief and practice. There is need here of radical revision of mankind of its outgrown, outworn ideas, conventions, and absurdities. The old vision must give way to the newer vision, as we change glasses at different periods of our life, to conserve and improve our sight. Therefore there must be, if not periodic, frequent revision, a mark of the growing mind. Mankind will have to revise many of its ideas and practices if it is to inaugurate a higher civilization, and a better world; one free from the terrific injustice that is the cause of such wide-spread suffering and misery; one that will rid the world of the horrors and barbarism of war; one that will lay firm the foundation of a universal and an enduring peace. IMPROVED MORAL SIGHT AND DEEPER RELIGIpUS INSIGHT ARE THE DESIDERATA! Theology will have to give way to religion. Hoary and blind custom to enlightened ethics. Hide-bound conservatism to a sane liberalism. Obscurantism and obfuscation to emancipated reason. Darkness to lightAfter midnight, the morn. Prevision would be the most wonderful vision. But in lieu of that revision, however painful; atoning for past errors and mistakes; baleful sins, cruel crims. "We issue books in revised editions. Even the Sacred Scriptures have been, in translation, ''Revised." Let us have a Revised Humanity, as free from error and evil as possible. For this we must look to Men of Vision who however scorned and derided, branded as "visionaries" by those who are themselves purblind, are nevertheless the benefactors of the race, the "Idealists" who lead mankind up from the low, dull, befogged levels, up to the sun-kissed, God-blessed heights of the Ideal; —the Good, the True, the Beautiful!

What can save those people? You ask this, .and I have asked it. I've asked a dozen or more men, not Jews, who know what is going on in Poland. They say that so long as the Black Shrits and the Brown Shirts patrol the streets of Poland there is little likelihood that help sent from America can be, of real widespread aid. There is only one answer. Either the Nazis are driven from Poland, or civilization in Eastern Europe limps back through ' the ages until it comes" to a period that was black, and when men were half beasts. It is interesting to note that Mr. Lewisohn declares that Palestine alone offers some hope for the millions of destitute Jews in Europe, and that sooner or later political action must make Palestine the .real homeland of the Jew. He said Palestine can provide homes for 8,000,000 people through intensified agriculture. Despite restrictions and troubles with the Arabs, he pointed out. 34,000 Jews entered Palestine last year and there found permanent homes.
