on Literature Of the Prophets" In
the course Of his lecture he said that he
regretted that so many Of the younger
Jewish people had accepted Shakes
peare's Shylock as a tyne Of the Jew
ish race ana censured him for demand
Ing a pound Of flesh He said that IL

would know that no such character as
Shyl0ck ever existed; that neither Shy
lock nor Jessica il a Jewish name, and
Shakespeare knew little Of the Jewish
character when he wrote "The Mer-
chant OF Venice" Furthermore every

100000 lives had been taken and the
speaker thought that the Jewish peoue
should not feel so grleyed over the
imaginary pound Of flesh that Shylock
wanted 10 take.
