JEWS HUNT SECOND
MILLIONAIRE MOSES
Zionist Followers Wander
LeaderleSS Since Death
of HerZl.

Palestine would be a Jewish country
today If Theodor Herzl had not died.
Herzl was the George Washington Of
the JeWs-One of the most remarkable
and romantic figures of this generation.
he died four years ago, o. heart disease.
About the time that OuI civil war be-
gan, Herzl was baby in a Jewish home
in Vienna. He was well educated, and
being by nature brilliant and mag
netic, he became leader among the
NienneSe 'IntelieCtuals.'
Until he was thirty-fye years old,
he did not interest himself in the trOU-
bles Or IN the destiny Of the Jews. He
was content TO write plays for the Wen
neSe theaters, and clever qutps Tor the
papers and magazines.
Then came the tragedy of the Drey-
fus case. Herzl went 10 Paris. and saw
with his own eyes how the Jews were
hated and thrust 10 one side. To
high-SpiTiJcd Jew such as HerZl this was
intOlerable. He realized with sudden
amaZement the humiliation OF his race
how they were everywhere a homeless
-ribe OF tnterlopers and lntruders. living
only by sufferanCe OF foreign nations
who were all more OF less hostile at
heart.
Book Startles Europe
Being a writer. he naturally put his
feelings into a bookshelf a book as
the Jews had not seen since the days Of
Isaiah He wrote it in eight weeks. and
it startled Europe like an explosion.
Since then, it has been translated into
many languages. You viii ma II IN
most of the larger American Libraries
under the title of THE Jewish State.
The Jews are a people-One People
They want country OF Their own, ana and
they shall have one This was the
motif of Herzrs book Tt was the war
cry OF a new crusade ana HeTZir against
his will and greatly 10 his surprise, was

his fellOw-Jews and transformed into a
second Moses. who had arisen 10 leao
his scattered people back TO the Prom
iSed Land.
Reiterates Old Demand.
Greatness was thrust upon him, with
a vengeance. but in a year or so lee
ripened into the ablest leader whom
the Jews have ever had in modern
times. AS Moses went to Pharaoh, so
HerzI went straight to the soVerelgns
Of Europe with the same old demand

He convinced Emperor William or
