THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD
IS ZIONISM DEMOCRATIC ?
Bv Abe M. Calnenson.

Certain nations had subjected
many other nations and rationale
ties to their rule. The theory
seemed to be that certain nations
were endowed by God to rule over
all other peoples, and to decide the
destinies of all nationalities. But
the idea of Democracy was growing
and developing, and it was seen that
there could not be true Democracy
in the World until national groups,
as we'll as the individuals within the
nations, were emancipated. The
World came to see the truth that
every nationality, like every individ-
ual, is of right entitled to equal op-
portunity with every other nation
atty.
And thus was born International
Democracy, the child of Internation-
al Injustice. The oppressed ma
tional groups commenced their fight
for national emancipation, for oppor-
tunity to live, to develop, and to
serve the family of nations. Just
as in the fight for International De-
mocracy, those enthroned in Special
Privilege fought the liberation of the
people, so in international Democ-
racy, the nations in power have OPP
posed the struggles of the oppressed
national groups for national emanci-
pation-for national self-expression.
1t is this opposition to the forces
of nature, this attempt to crush the
irrepressible national consciousness
of the various weaker national
groups that has resulted in the ter
rible situation in which the world
finds itself today. The onward
march of International Democracy
can no more be stopped than can
Democracy within the nations
Both are aligned with the laws of
nature, both are forces in the ad-
vance of Man to higher state of
Civilization, both are right, and both
must become universal.
The Jewish People is one of the
national groups that has been op-
pressed. The whole world seems to
have been arrayed against this one
small group in the attempt to crush
it, But it's national consciousness,
so interviewer with it's religion, that
the one cannot be separated from
the other, that the one cannot be re-
moved without destroying the other,
was too strong for it's oppres-
sors. It. seemed almost to be ex-
tinct, but when the idea of Inter-
national Democracy came into be-
ing, and the oppressed nationalities
began their fght for national enaan-

During the history of modern
Zionism, many charges have been
made against'it On the one hand, it
is charged with being an impractical
ideal ON the other hand, it is too
materialistic. From one source
comes the charge that it is irreligi-
Gus, while others object to it because
it is narrow and ultra orthodox. All
of these charges and fears have been
met and shown to be groundless.
Zionism is found to be big enough to
take into it's camp, under its banner,
and upon the same platform, all
Jews, of every shade of belief and
thought, who truly desire that Jewry
and Judaism shall both continue to
live.
Now, however, comes new
charge. Zior1ism has been found to
be "undemocratic," "based on spe-
cial privilege" and the "product of
social injustice"
In order to understand whether
Zionism is or is not fundamentally
democratic; that is, whether its phi
losophy is based on Democracy, we
must first inquire into the nature and
history of Democracy.
Democracy is the product of So
cial Injustice. Before the days of
Democracy, and not SO long ago,
kings ruled their subjects by ''divine
right" The whole system of society,
in every land, was based on special
privilege. The few ruled and the
many obeyed To the few belonged
the privileges of the World, and to
the many the Duties. The only
rights the many had we're to do as
ordered by those in power. The or
der of the day was Social Injustice.
Then a wonderful change came
over the World. Its oppressed in
habitants began to think Their
thinking led them to these truths:
That the World is intended not for
the few but for all-that all people
are created with equal rights
each individual is of right entitled
to equal opportunity with every other
individual And thus was born De-
mocracy, the child of Special Privi
lege, the product of Social Injustice.
Humanity began it's fight for De-
mocracy. In many lands the people
arose to fight for this new ideal, un-
til today nearly all of the govern
ments of the Western World, in the
DRY at least, are based on Democ-
racy.
But as the idea of Democracy
grew within the nations, it was

national freedom. And the Zionist
movement was born to fight for the
emancipation of the Jewish national
group, that it might have the same
opportunity as other peoples to live,
to develop and to serve Mankind.
Thus it will be seen that Zionism
is fundamentally democratic, that
it is in truth child of Democracy;
that it is based on special privilege,
that it is the product of social I'M US
tice, in the same sense that Democ-
racy is based on these things and is
the product of them.
And it will also be seen that Zion
ism does not ask for Especial priv
ileges;" that it asks for the same
rights and opportunities that every
national group has now, or is likely
soon to have-an equal opportunity
with every other people more
no less Is this undemocratic? Is
this special privilege?
The function of a national group
is Service-Service to it's members,
and to Mankind. Every national
group but one has home land,
national center, work shop in
which to perform this service. The
one national group that has no such
national center, no such work shop,
no such home land, is the Jewish
group. It, among all the peoples in
the world, is without home. Not
because it does not claim one, not
because it never had one. 1t spent
it's childhood at home, it grew into
manhood at home, into wonderful
manhood. And in the prime of man
hood it was driven from it's home.
1t has never given up its claim to
that home. It does not now give up
it's claim 1t asks that this home be
given back to it's true owners, and
it wishes to pay for the return. It
asks merely to be placed in the same
position with other nationalities
it asks an equal opportunity with the
other national groups-no special
Notwithstanding undemocratic
When this shall have been accom-
plished, when the Jewish group is
re-established in it's ancient home
land, as surely it must be, or cease
to exist, living again a national life,
rather than merely existing to pre-
serve it, then will it be in a position
to perform it's Service it's service to
it's own members, it's members in the
land and out of tits service to the
world. Just as in the past it gave
to the world the code on which is

submarine proclamation was received
from Ambassador Penheld. An exact
definition of Austrias intentions be-
cause of the difference of American re-
lations with that country and those
with Germany, was then sought.
The state department recently noti-
fed the Austrian embassy here that
Count TarnOw Tarnowski. the new Aus
trian ambassador who landed at New
York the day the German proclamation
was received. could not present his Gre
dentials to President Wilson until the
issue between the two countries was
cleared.
The feeling prevails that while both
this country and Austria are seeking
to avoid break Germany is determined
that her ally shall support TO the great
est degree possible the submarine cam
paign. The withdrawal of the Ameri-
can diplomatic and consular corps from
Austria will not present as difficult a
problem as in the case of Germany. The
embassy force at Vienna is smaller and
there are only about IL consuls in the
dual empire State department reports
indicate that while there are several
hurdred Austro-Americans there are
less than so Americans who would re-
turn to the United States in case of a
