walls of plaster and breaking crockery,
the tenants merely rolled over in their
beds and in one accord sleepily muir

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

Palestine it brought a new life, in
the building of which even non-Zion-
lists, particularly in America, cooper
ated. Willy-nilly, it was becoming
the Jewish centre of vision and ac-
ton for all the Jews of the world,
bidding fair by slow and peaceful
and largely unconscious develop
ment greatly to mitigate, if not
to solve, the chronic "Jewish ques-
ton" when came the war.
The war has made the PRINCIPLES
OF democracy and nationality for
which Zlonism stands the paramount
issues of contemporary life. Because
the Russian bureaucracy, to cover
the treachery and incompetence of
its officials, has once more made the
Jewish people its scapegoat and con-
verted the Pale of Settlement into
Belgium thrice repeated, the war
has brought the chronic Jewish ques-
ton to a crisis. Turkeys participa-
ton in it has jeopardized the hard
won beginnings of generation in
Palestine. The tragic anomalies of
the Jews position have never been
SO explicit, nor the need for healing
action so great. Under the circum
stances the responsibility has fallen,
naturally, upon the Jews of America,

and how they will carry it must
largely influence the fate of Euro
pean Jewry.
With respect to Zionism, the same
conditions that obtained among
European Jews obtain among Amer
ican Jews. At the beginning Zion
ism signifed social program based
on democratic social philosophy
only to the Jewish immigrant; for
native American Jews who SYM
pathized with it, its implications
we're chiefly philanthropic. The
changes in sentiment were here the
same as in Europe. Most violently
opposed by the extreme radicals and
amateur Gentiles, it gained it's adher-
ents among the intellectuals, the stu
dents, the "progressives," and the
working classes and it is from the
last in fact, that its greatest strength
comes. The Jewish masses look to
Zionism for leadership on all ques-
tions pertaining to the Jewish people
as whole. That, in the present
crisis, they feel their obligation, and
wish to assume the burden of it, any
reader of the Jewish press may see.
The means proposed is democratic
cally constituted congress of Jews,
and the press, the great fraternal or
ganizations, the Landsmannschaften,
have united in requesting the Zion
lists to lead in the formation of this
congress. TO accept their mandate
means to carry the struggle towards
democracy within Jewry one step
farther. Powerful interests, inter-
ests analogous to those which op-
posed the calling of the first Zionist
congress by Herzl, are opposed to
such gathering Of Jews, and for
analogous reasons. The Zionists
have accepted the mandate. They
propose to call, in cooperation with
all Jewish organizations in the coun-
try, congress which shall be repre-
sentative of all our Jewish citizen
ship, which shall discuss publicly
and freely every phase of the Jewish
question, and shall formulate some
program of action.
