The Jewish outlook., 1907-11-29
Frau Julie Herzl

1t IS with sincere regret that we
record the death, at the early age of
81 years, Of Frau Julie Herzl, the wild
ow of the late DR.. Theodore Herzl.
The deceased lady had been for some
little time seriously ill. During DR..
Herzl's lifetime the physicians had
declared Frau Herzl's condition as
none too robust by reason of heart
trouble, but it was hoped that the
treatment she then received had prac-
tically restored her to health. A re-
turn of the malady about month or
six weeks ago, together with superven-
ing complications, made it evident
that she was in a precarious state.
She, however, rallied somewhat dur
ing last week, and it was hoped that
the worst had passed. A somewhat
sudden collapse took place on Satur-
day last, ending with her death on
Saturday evening at Altaussee, where
she had been sent when her illness
first appeared serious. A keen pathos
is added to the death of Frau Herzl
in the fact that her only son, Hans,
who is at school in England, was una
BILE to reach her while she was yet
alive, he having contracted very Sc
we're chill about a fortnight ago, and
been kept to his bed by the doctors
order. Towards the middle of last
week he was convalescent, and was
sent to Brighton to recuperate. He
travelled to Vienna on Monday morn
ing last to attend the funeral. Frau
Herzl's two daughters were with her
at Altaussee. Frau Herzl belonged
to a well-known Viennese family
named Nasschauer, and news of her
untimely death will be deeply felt by
a large circle of friends

Kansas City Judge Attacks Jews

produce more money than any other
day in the week.
Rabbi Harry II. Mayer has this to
say:
''When the judge goes out of his
way to bring opprobrium upon the
supposed religion of this particular
set of men, whom he is pleased to re-
gard as the principal adversaries of
his ideas as to the proper enforce
ment of the Sunday laws, he maligns
that religion and attacks the tender
est and most sacred feelings of an
honorable and patriotic section of our
citizenship, he makes himself the
mouthpiece of anti-Semitic ISLANDERS.
he panders to the lowest class preju-
dice. and soils the judicial robe that
should be badge of good sense, good
will and the broadest kind of toler-
ance."
A mass meeting of citizens and talk
of impeachment followed Judge Wal
lace's TRADE:
The Kansas City Times says edi-
torially:
even if the theatrical business
were controlled entirely by Jews, it
would still be unjust to attack them
as a people in relation to the Sunday
theater question, for the reason that
gentiles in many other lines of bust
ness regard Sunday and its employ
merits and diversions In pTeo;ssii., the
same way that the Jews regard the
day and its privileges. But, while
the theatrical trust is composed of
Jewish interests there are, after all.
many more gentiles in the business
and the profession than there are
Jews. and it is unfair to charge either
class with a responsibility that is not
put upon the other"
The Kansas City Star has the fol-
lowing:
1t is purely gratlitous and wholly
regrettable that Judge Wallace
should have brought the matter of re-
ligion into this discussion. 1t is quite
probable that the question of religion
has as little to do with the attitude
of the theatrical trust on the Sunday
theater question as it has with the at
llIuue Ol IllOSI Sentllc managers. Anu
it would be just as consistent to say
that the effort to close the theaters on
Sunday is intended as an attack on
the Jews engaged in the theatrical
business as it is to say that the Jew
ish managers thus engaged have con-
spired to overthrow the Christian
Sunday"
This is from the Kansas City Jour
mel:
BY all means let the Sabbatarians
be fair and just and not prosecute
anyone because of his religion, which
is amply protected under the const-
tuition. To suggest that men should
be prosecuted because they are Jews
would be confession of desperate
weakness on the part of the Sabba-
tarians. 1t will bring more sympathy
to those prosecuted than approving
sentiment favorable to those who are
trying to enforce the blue laws"
The Jewish outlook., 1907-11-29

Kansas City, Mo.-ln closing his
address on the Sunday law before the
Kansas City Bar Association, William
II. Wallace, judge of the Criminal
Court, said:
81 have nothing personal against
the Jews or their race. | wish to be
charitable with them, but l am de-
termined to be plain. | find that the
principal opposition to the enforce
ment of the Sunday laws comes from
the Jews in the theatrical business.
"You will notice that the money
and the sinews for defying and com
batting these Sunday laws comes from
the Jews. You hear very little about
the other class of offenders. You see
no array of legal talent and no armed
defiance except from the Jews. The
Jews control the theatrical syndicate !;
they are using their great chests OF
money to defy the law of Christian
nation and Christian state; the the
atrical trust of the Jews is grinding
the actress, the actor and the employe
against the stone and wringing from
them money on Sunday. With these
Jews it is merely question of money,
money, and nothing else. They care
not for our law, our Sunday, or the
right of the laborer to rest one day in
the week. -s----.--= -77.lsslss-.
"I'll tell you now that so long as
| am criminal judge and have right
to construc the law, it will be the law
as | construe it. and I'll not allow the
law of Missouri to knuckle to the
atcr manager. The theater manager
may have his test case and a decision
by higher court, but he will get it
accordinge to the processes of the
criminal law. l will not set aside the
law and allow him to go unmolested
while his case is on appeal to a higher
court He will abide by the law as l
construe it until higher court re-
verses me and think the chances for
that are about one in thousand. If
| should allow a Jew theatrical mana
ger to run his theatcr in defiance of
the law pending an appeal, why
should | not permit murderer or a
horsethief to carry on his business of
killing or stealing horses while a
higher court was deciding whether or
not he should be allowed to carry on
that business?
''This is not question of the
church or religion. 1t is the law. 1t
is question of protecting the laborer,
the man who works for wages, from
the tyrannical employer or capitalist
who seeks to make him work 365 days
in the year. The man who works for
wages has the right under the law to
demand one day in the week for rest.
There is no work so hard and eXacting
as that Of the actor and actress; it
wrecks by hard work and mental
strain as many persons as any other
vocation. These helpless servants of
jew theatrical managers are denied
their Sunday, day of rest, because
by making them work on Sunday
there is a rich harvest of money. The
Jew cannot see the wrong of the desc
Grafton of the Sabbath or the defiance
of the law. He sees and counts the
money. He demands the two per-
formances on Sunday because they

Jewish Women to the Rescue

The Council of Jewish Women of
New Orleans has placed itself on rec
ord as favoring the elimination OF
matinee going and shopping on the
Sabbath day, as far as Jewish women
are concerned. To the best Of our
knowledge this is the first time in the
history of the local section OF the
Council of Jewish Women that such
a proposition has been discussed and
agreed upon. The members OF the
council are to be heartily commended
for their consideration of this timely
subject and complimented for the
manner in which they have disposed
of it.
Everybody is thoroughly aware of
the fact that the eXigency OF business
prevents the observance of the Sab
bath in the ancient way. This prob
lem is not alone confined to the United
States. Our coreligionists in Europe,
now that Sunday laws are being en-
acted and enforced, are in the same
quandary, for the traditional Sabbath
cannot be insisted upon-as far as
cessation from business and labor is
concerned, in this era. While many
Jews are loyal to the Sabbath observ-
ance, they also recognize the disad-
vantages and are the losers by their
devotion to principle.
However. the contention of The
Jewish Ledger is that notwithstand-
ing the demands of business, trade
and industrial pursuits, Jewish homes
need not be sacrificed to Mammon and
the underlying principle Of the true
Jewish home is intimately associated
with the House Of God, where the
children, at least, accompanied by
their mothers, can draw that inspira-
ton from the exposition Of our faith.
and the ever beautiful liturgical SER
vice.
Because business holds the atten-
ton of the bread winners is no rea-
son why our women and our children
should utilize the Sabbath day as one
for shopping, matinees and frivolity.
Furthermore, the eve of the Sabbath
is not necessarily day whereon
bridge, euchre or whist parties should
he found in Jewish homes.
The Council of Jewish Women in
New Orleans has grasped the situa-
ton by pointing out the incongruity
of shopping and matinee going on the
Sabbath day. It is an admirable start
to bring about some other essential
work on the same lines.
Let the council by unanimous vote
decide that every member will eschew
entertaining and entertainments on
Friday afternoon. Furthermore, make
it an inviolable rule that every mem,
ber, unless prevented by illness, or
other urgent causes, attend divine
service on the Sabbath eve and on the
Sabbath day.
The result would be that, at least
on Friday nights, the husbands.
fathers and mothers would accom-
pany them, and instead of few of
the regular attendants and those
who come to recite Kaddish-the
mourner's prayer-a creditable gath
ering of attentive worshipers will oc-
cupy the synagogues.
Jewish women are responsible for
the laxity prevailing in Jewishness.
