liath-like against lusty David of the
Far East t-has stripped herself of half
million of her blood corpuscles and sent
this vast mass instinct with mental force,
with economic resource, even with art
istic promise-how vital is it that intel
lectual forces dominate? The great uni
versity with which l have the honor to
be connected has upon it's seal noble
legend-Veritas vos liberabit- the
truth shall set you free" Let this senti-
ment become the inspiration OF the Rus
sian Jew in America. The contribution
which he shall make to our national life
in the twentieth century must be not ma
tcrial advance alone, but intellectual en-
richment This is neither the work of a
group of years nor Of one body of men,
Forever, forever, in ceaseless endeavor
Is Sisyphus rolling the stone up the
mountain
But the efforts of such organizations
as that whose activity we celebrate to-
night blazes the way and those who come
after will surely tread whittier it points
The Jewish outlook., 1905-01-06

save that which you render unto God.
You need not be told to care for the
needy, to heal the sick, to cherish the Or
phan-for these things you have long
since realized. But do them in no mar
row, clannish sense, but in a broad spirit
Of humanitarianism, in the light Of mod
ern methods and with the end OF ade-
quate relief Above all realize to the
fullest the social emancipation which has
come to you. You have not passed from
one ghetto only to enter into another
ghetto none the less because it is with
out bar or gate and because you elect
freely to dwell therein. In ''these
blessed bounds of Baltimore there are
too many inviting residential districts,
offering attraction and convenience, to
justify an old-world building into a seq
regated Judengasse, be it east or west of
Jones falls.
AS you associate yourselves with your
neighbors in things that are secular, so
let there be alliance with your brother
Jew in things that are religious. From
time to time there comes the OminOus
rumble Of a social jar within the very
camp Of Israel of a developing preju-
dice between German and Russian Jews
and Of an unwise and heated charge and
countercharge. Let not this even
the shadow of this-be true. Are the
past sufferings Of Israel so forgotten, are
his future endeavOrs so remote that in
ternal dissension may arise and COM
munal discord develop? Let us, above
all things, be saved from Jewish anti
semitism. A longer remembrance on the
one side, a larger forbearance on the
other and common endeavOr in the
things essential-these are the simple
solvents.
Loyalty to the state, fellowship with
society, and the largest task still re-
mains. 1t is nothing less than fidelity to
yourselves Walter Pater has put it so
finely: "The end of life is not action
but contemplation being as distinct
from doing-a certain disposition Of the
mind; this is in some shape or other the
principle Of all the higher morality"
Mr. Lecky stated it even palmer in tell
ing us that the purpose Of mans exist
ence is to attain the highest develop
ment of which he is capable. Life spells
failure unless we make the most not of
it but Of ourselves; ethically and intel
lectually, mans destiny is in his own
grasp if he will but seize it, Shall the
Jew be content with anything less than
this? He comes upon the scene with
unique heritage; will he spurn it? Shall
people Of the book, whose history is one
long martyrdom for the preservation of
ideals, now lend deaf ear to the 1ntel1ec-
tual life?
The Jewish outlook., 1905-01-06

erclSed by each man according 10 MS own
conviction and in the light of the intelli-
gence that has been vouchsafed him!
What right have we to Jewish Demo-
cratic Clubs and Hebrew Republican AS
sociations? If you believe in the pol
icies or the personnel Of the Republican
party vote its ticket and join its organl-
zation. If you are attracted by the plat
form and endeavors Of the Democratic
party, let your affiliation be accordingly.
But do all of this as citizens and as men,
not as religionists and as Jews Resent
every intimation of civic collectivism,
punish every endeavOr at racial exploita-
ton. Be in politics as you have been IN
religion people Of free and independ-
ent thought, Of sturdy and uncompelled
action. If the word Russian Jew is to
stand for anything in American political
life let it mean men who think for them
selves and who act as they think, who
cherish civic participation the more be-
cause it came to them not as birthright
and who will not barter it-now that
they have it-for mess of pottage;
whose shoulders may never again bend
to the yoke Of party serfdom, and whose
political conduct will never be a docile
response to the crack of a boss whip.
Aristotle defined a man as political
animal But the "polis" of the Greek
world connoted something different from
the city or state Of to-day, and the great
teacher was very far from implying that
political integrity exhausted the upright
life Indeed, at bottom political service
is phase of social conduct, and in pre-
scribing wise rules of actin of men to
their fellows individually, we intimate
the proper attitude to aggregates.
AS member of the body social the
Russian Jew, as I take it, faces two dis
tinct problems. First, what shall be his
relation to his Christian neighbors, and
second, what shall be his relation to his
brother Jews? AS far as his fellowmen
in the largest sense Of the word-are
concerned, I believe the Russian Jew will
in the long run attain that regard
