Continued from last week.

who was with us all at the University.
Simon, with his powers and reputa-
ton; and Cohen, you know you did,
Cohen resented his being a free
thinker. It was Simon who made a

his own Zionism altogether independ-

the time. Interested in my work, and
didn't care to be bothered by anything
else. Simon came to me in his Junior
year, by way of the regular routine
of getting advice about his courses. A
long, frail-looking lad he was, lust
bursting with plans and ideas. Rather
op1n1onated, but with high-pressure
quality that excused it. Besides, he
was very young. At the time he was
as much concerned about humanity
and social justice as about chemistry.
He took to me. We have since agreed
that it was because of the innate racial
sympathy; we were at ease with each

mans a man for all that. You know
the talk. After a while we got from
problems of physical chemistry to the
: Jewish problem. We used to walk
around Fresh Pond, talking, or go into
town to Charley's or sit half the night
in my chambers. One evening he call

me, he said, or he'd burst. We scarce

on politics. He had humanitarian
passion that was almost Jewish. His
hobby was 'Americanism. America,

lea, democracy; America, social JUS
tice; America saving the world
through freedom. | am not sure that
this passion, which was literary and
mystical, did not attract Simon much
more than his adequate scientific good
sense. For theology and religion he
had no patience; he would argue
hours at a time, with overwhelming
recitations of data, that the institution
was the enemy of mankind. Simon,
himself raw from his experience with
Gods champions at home, identified
himself unconsciously but completely
with Tolman's point of view
"He brought that point of view to
college, and he brought his anti Semi
tism to college. He didn't exchange
word with a Jew in the first two years,
and he was particularly vindictive in
denouncing his people for capitalism.
In his classroom and campus activities
he had it all his own way. You know
his charm. 1t out-weighed even his
dogmatism and volubility. If anybody
ever turned Americanism into fetish,
he did. He took it to the settlements,
where he preached it to Italians he
wouldn't have anything to do with
Jews and he took it to key parties,
where he preached it to undergrad
yates. His Americanism it was that

year that we got acquainted
"He used to tell me about that
course. He had way of raising into
q philosophic issue whatever notion

time, and of then cropping i. But
he kept rever+iny 70 that course in
almost every confab we had during the
term. His 'Americanism' had, he dis
covered, unconsidered origins and
roots. Its beginnings were nourished
by tradition that he despised, be-
cause belonging to it had hurt him.
That he was alert to it, deep down in
his heart, that he was living in the
presence of it day and night, his re-
sentiments showed plainly. If he'd
been really free of it, he'd have been
indifferent to it. Its hold on him was
measurable by his feelings toward it,
At first he wouldn't endure the notion
that Americanism owed anything to

mood was infectious. | could feel he
was uplifted and happy. When we
got to my rooms he wouldn't go in
We walked all night.
AFTER an hours walking like that
he opened up. We hadn't exchanged
personal condolences ever before, but
now he poured out his whole story.
'He came from rather distinguished
Sephardic stock, but his people, being
the only family of the sect in the little
Western town where he was born,
were members of the very respectable
Ashkenazic congregation His father
was a rigorous pietist and hoped to
make rabbi of him. They did not
get on we'll, and through the interven-
ton of his mother Simon was sent
east to school, his father having ex-
acted a promise that he would carry
out his daily religious obligations to
the letter, and that he would refrain
from eating meat. At school Simon
had to fight for his promise, and lived
up to it religiously the first year. The
second year he was laughed and ar
gued out Of keeping it. Partly his
schoolmates were responsible, partly
his science master, who had taken a
fancy to him. But it would have come
anyhow; physics and chemistry are
not compatible with revelation He
spent five years at that school. There
were one or two other Jews there, but
they were what our philosopher here
calls amateur Gentiles. Simon rather
despised them, though he speedily &C
1uired their attitude toward his people.
His associates were exclusively Gen
tiles, he went to their homes and met
their sisters and sweethearts, he lived
their lives. His own people did not
gain by the contrast. Between him
and his father growing GOODNESS be-
came a complete separation. After
his second vacation at home he did
not return His scholarly excellence
assured him his education, and the in
terest of his science-master got him
tutoring enough to yield him more
than a living. His science-master was
a rather unusual man-more like
master in an English public school
than an American pedagogue. He was
the author of one or two travel books,
and wrote a great deal in the weeklies
