dieval oppression and prosecution, rlgld
confinement in the ghettos, and strict
isolation have the Jews married eXclu-
sively among themselves.
In recent times the Jews again be-
gan to marry with Christians in Europe
and in America. In some countries this
inter-marriage has assumed such pro-
portions as to threaten the integrity OF
Judaism A survey Of the census sta
tistics published in various European
countries reveals that wherever the Jews
are subject to special adverse leglsla-
ton, segregated in ghettos and deprived
Of friendly social intercourse with their
non-Jewish neighbors, very little or no
inter-marriage occurs. This is partc-
ularly the case in Oriental countries,
like Turkey, Persia, Morocco, etc, and
also in semi-O Oriental countries, like Rus
STA There, inter-marrage is prohibited
by law; unless the Jew first accepts
Christianity or Northumberland, he
may not marry Gentle On the other
hand, in western Europe, where he en-
joys all the privileges of free citizen,
mixed marriages are Of frequent occur.
ence In fact, in some countries, even,
more frequent than inter-marriages be-
tween Catholics and protestants.

Two Jews from Maryland m
Congress

The election Of Mr. Harry b. Wolf OF
this city to Congress adds another Jew
ish name to the comparatively small
number of Jews who have had seats in
the national legislature No other state
of the Union has ever had a senator and
Il representative of the Jewish race at
the same time. When it is recalled that
Maryland has only eight members in
Congress altogether, the unusual char
acter of the situation is apparent. Mr..
Wolf is a very young man with plenty
of push and energy and with popular
ity evident by the vote he polled. All
the elements of long and useful public
career are at hand and Mr.. Wolf is pre-
sented with an opportunity to make a
permanent name for himself The last
election has witnessed the entrance into
office Of many Jews all over the coun-
try In New York City Democratic and
Republican Jews were elected to the
bench at one time. Mr.. Straus' en-
trance into the Cabinet is considered by
some as product of the election. AS a
rule, Jews have maintained high
standard in the public service, and there
is reason to believe that this standard
will be maintained. The young man
from Baltimore has good, if few, ex-
amples Of the way Jewish congressman

The Jewish outlook., 1906-11-16

lishmen only two per cent. are OF TINS
class. Stieda found that in Lorraine
the proportion Of consanguineous mar
riages is 1S6 per thousand ordinary
marriages among the professionals, 9.9|
among Catholics, and 23O2 among Jews
In Hungary marriage of near kin can
only be contracted after special per-
mission has been obtained from the clvli
authorities. The data on the subject
in that country are therefore reliable
During 1901 such permission was
granted 27O times to Jews and l,2li
times to others. On a basis OF the pop
ulation, it thus appears that the Jews
obtained proportionately about live ana
one-half as many permits as the Chrls-
tians. Among 1000 Christian mar
riages 5S were between cousins, whlle
among 1000 Jewish marriages there
were 1913 In Prussia the rates were
in 1925, among the Jews 23.oo per
1000 ordinary marriages; protestants'
14.6s. and Catholics, 9.9S. From figures
collected by Treitel in Berlin 1t APP
pears that during 1900 the proportion
of consanguineous marriages was among
the Jews 1913, and among protestants
only 81 per 1000 marriages.
It is doubtful whether this lnbreed-
ing is the cause Of most OF the Diabetes
insanity, idocy, deaf-mutlsm, etc, en-
countered among the Jews. 1t is at
present the consensus Of opinion that
consanguineous marriages contracted by
healthy individuals are not at all detr1-
mental to the offspring. But when con-
tracted by detectives, the physical OF
mental defect is likely to appear IN
more accumulated form in the progeny:
It must in this connection be mentioned
that consanguineous marriage among the
European population rarely exceeds l
per cent Of all marriages, and IS more
FREQUENT, as a rule, in the country than
in the city, The Jews, as city dwellers,
ought to have a still smaller proportion
of marriages Of near kin.
Mixed Marriages.
The prevailing opinion that Jews
have always refrained from inter-mar-
riape with non-Jews is erroneous. Bib
lical tradition shows clearly that the
ancient Hebrews inter-married freely
with their Gentle neighbors. Some OF
the most important patriarchs (Abra-
ham, Joseph, Moses) and kings (Solo-
mon) had Gentle wives The prophets,
Ezra and Nehemia, both arraigned the
Hebrews for their carelessness in this re-
spect and appealed to them to maintain
the purity Of the race OF Israel. A
study of their history shows that the
Jews have always more or less inter
married with the races and peoples
