gence with regard to the main facts
among the survivors examined by
the embassy and little difference on
details.
The exception is John II. Hearty,
United Press correspondent, who ex-
pressed the opinion that the Sussex
was sunk by mine. On cross-eX-
animation at the embassy, however,
he had only the fact that the ship
was struck in the bow to support his
opinion, and the embassy attaches no
weight to it.
The embassy investigation also es-

could by any stretch Of imagination

The fight for and against the bible

battlefield is Trenton, the capital

sion. The same forces are arrayed
against each other-the Protestants
versus Catholics, Jews and the non
affiliated liberals. The Protestants,
of course, are the ones who urge
the reading of the Bible-hve verses
each school day, no more and no
less. AS the Jewish Exponent of
Philadelphia we'll points out, the real
motive of the Bible advocates is ''to
assert the supremacy of a particular
denomination, the Protestant, and it's
ideas in the institutions of Our
country, regardless of state or fed
era1 constitutions or the dictates of
justice and equality" That has all
along been the claim of the Protes-
tant denominations, namely, that
this is Christian nation, and accord
ing to them, the Protestants are the
only real Christians.
Now think Of the stupidity of it
all. Five verses of the Bible are to
be read, without comment or ex-
PLANTATION, of course. That is agreed.
The average school teacher, of
course, is we'll versed in the Bible.
and quite competent to make wise
selection of verses. But suppose

lowing five verses: "These were
dukes of the sons of Esau; the sons
Of Eliphaz, the frst-born son Of
Esau; duke Teman, duke Omar,
duke Zepho, duke Kenaz, duke Ko-
rah, duke Gatham and duke Amalek,"
and three and half more verses of
dukes. Or, the first five verses of
Chronicles: adam, Sheth, Enosh,
Kenan, Mahalaleel, Jered, Henoch,

verses of St. Matthew: "Abraham
begat Isaac and Isaac begat Jacob;
and Jacob begat Judas and his
brethren; and Judas begat Phares,"
ETC., no comments are made
Wouldn't that be edifying for the
children? Wouldn't that improve
their morals? But suppose the most
judicious selection is made and the
finest passages are read, the very
gems of the Bible If they are not
properly elucidated, how much bene-
fit will the children derive from such
reading? How much benefit does
an adult derive from the reading of
the Bible without commentary, un-
less he be trained Bible student?
Will not such reading, then become
a perfunctory performance, on the
part of the teacher and bore to
the pupils, who will thus learn to
look upon the Bible as book of
empty, meaningless sounds, and to
treat it with contempt? Will that
improve their morals?
Should we not, then. continue to
protest against such folly? On what
grounds? On the ground that we
are opposed to the introduction of ST.
perstition into our public schools.
For it is the crassest kind of super
stition to believe that the meaning
less reading of a number of verses
from any book, even if that book
be the Bible, can have a good influ-

A POWERFUL INDICTMENT
OF ZIONISM.


The above is description in the
American Israelite of an address
delivered by Rabbi Louis Wolsey of
Cleveland before an open forum
meeting in Cincinnati O. Always
eager to learn something new, al
ways anxious to find some good
reason for turning our back upon
the foolish Zionistic vagary, we
perused the Indictment with great
interest For the benefit of our
readers we reproduce the powerful
arguments against Zionism, making
a few comments as we go along.
rs the recreation of the Jewish
state to be looked upon as the goal
of Jewish history? Have these
1000 years been of no use to Juda-
ism save to prepare for return to
Palestine?" asks our indicter Well,
suppose we answer his queries in
the affirmative. Is the creation of
an independent well-governed state,
the rebirth of a nation, such mean,
contemplate thing? Have the la
bors Of the early explorers, and pio-
neers, of the Pilgrim fathers, the
Colonists, have the struggles of the
Purltans and other sects, been of
no use save to form some new
states and nations on the American
continent: File upon such despicable
results!
Reform Judaism looks forward
to securing liberty and emancipation
for the Jews of all lands, while the
Z1onists propose a return to the
land, language, literature, custom
and ceremonials Of 1000 years ago.
One is progressive, the other is re-
actlonary,' says the accuser. To
which we must simply reply that he
does not know what he is talking
about, and that the statement is too
ridiculous to waste words on it.
Land, language, and literature of
1000 years ago! Awful, sn't it? We
should at least manufacture a new
land, and new language for our
selves in order not to be reactionarv.
And literature of 1000 years ago,
which means our Bible! How can
we ever so back to that
In conclusion Rabbi Wolsey
"clearly explained" the impossibility
of recreating Jewish state in the
Holy Land. We are not gifted with
the supernatural power of divina-
ton, and SO we cannot meet the in
dieter of Zionism in his own chosen
field of representation. We do not
