ARMENIAN UNION IN FAVOR

Judge Brandeis of the United
States Supreme Court has received
a letter of congratulation from the

THE IRREPRESSIBLE CON-
GRESS.
By Samuel Captain.

y 0oAAANSA SotAoAA'
On November 18th, 1917, in &C
cordance with the decision of the
Executive Committee for an Amer
lean Jewish Congress, the Ameri-
can Jewish Congress, representing
all the Jews of America, and hav-
ing for its purpose the securing Of
full and equal rights for the Jew
ish people all over the world, was
held,-not in the capital of the Unit
ed States as previously announced,
but in the columns Of the secular
English press. Stories that the Jew
ish Congress was in session on the
aforesaid date, were printed in
large number of English newspa-
pers, including some published in
New York.
Was there any necessity, then,
for wrangling meeting after meet
ing, as to whether or not the Con-
gress should be postponed? Could
not some of our vociferous friends
have spared their vocal chords in
their attempts to "vive-voce" veto
the decision to postpone the Con-
gress? What matters it if some
three-score or so members of the
Administrative Committee had decid-
ed not to hold the Congress? The
United Press decreed that an Amer
lean Jewish Press shall be held on
November 18th, and 10 and behold,
it was held!
"The pen is mightier than the
vote! p The vote decided that the
Jews should not be heard in war
time; the pen decided to the con-
trary The vote was convinced that
the voice Of the Jew could not pos
sibly be heard in war time the pen
spoke even though the voice was 81
lent. Golus, what demoralizing
force it is! Not only does it force
upon the Jewish people things which
they do not want, but also things
which they do want, but are afraid
to ask for.
The Congress received publicity
The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1917-12-14

thing about this collection of jour
nalistic opinion, is not so much the
sympathetic approval of the project,
but the thorough understanding of
the Jewish aspiration that it dis
plays.
1t is clear from these editorials
that America understands and SYM
pathizes with the Zionist program,
and realizes that ardor for Eretz
Yisroel does not detract from devo-
ton to this republic. In no single
instance, except the one of a news
paper published by Jew, is there
even the faintest suggestion of any
of those accusations and suspicious
which the opponents of the move
ment have so loudly asseverated
would be engendered in the minds
of the American people by the re-
iteration of the Zionist formula.
It is impossible in our limited
space to quote these expressions of
approval, but the following list OF
American newspapers which have
written and published editorials ap-
proving the British declaration, will
give some idea Of the unanimity of
the press on this subject: New York
Evening Post; Boston Christian
Science Monitor; New York Times;
New York Globe; Rochester Post
Express; Hartford Courant; N. Y
Evening Mail; Chicago Journal;
Boston Transcript; Minneapolis
Tribune, Minneapolis Journal; Min
neapolis Daily News; South Bend
New-Times The Richmond Virgin
ian; Watertown, N. Y, Times;
Daily, York, Pa; Boston Morning
Globe; Union, Grass Valley, CAL;
Record, Morristown,' N. j.; Port
land Oregonian.

a-plenty, and in spite of the war and
in spite of the fact that the elected
delegates remained at home. Edi-
torial applause was given in many
country newspaper to the rightful
demands of the Jewish people, and
much valuable space was devoted
in some sixty newspapers to clari-
fcation of exactly what the Jews
were demanding at their. Congress.
But then, silver Innings usually
have their dark clouds. One dark
cloud poured a shower of complaints
upon the innocent Jewish press.
Constant readers sent letters to their
constant news purveyors, register
ing their violent protests at the fail
ure of their source of information
to contain the highly important
news that the Congress had con-
vened. Another dark cloud lowered
about the heads of the elected Con-
gressmen. The heart of many a
proud Congressman almost stopped
beating when learning of the con-
vening of the Congress through the
scoop-making English press. And,
forsooth, had they not been duly
elected after going through the i'm
mense hardships of campaigning, So
letting, vote-getting, and some of
them even through the nerve-rack-
ing suspense of long stretched-out
contest? Of course they were elect
ed, and as evidence thereof they had
certificates of election properly
signed and sealed by the chairman
and secretary of the august General
Board of Elections. 1t was nothing
short of highwayman tactics to con-
vene the Congress and let the prop
erly elected delegates sit at home.
The Jewish Congress was not held
on November 18th. But November
was evidently destined to be red
letter month in the Jewish calendar
Certain people were afraid to sound
the name of the Jewish people on
November 18th; but the Jewish peo-
pie was called aloud by name on
November 3rd. The voice, instead
of coming from Washington, came
from London. -.
