The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1918-05-24

The American Jewish Chronicle
of New York, edited by one who
probably considers himself the great
est of all Jewish Journalists, living
or dead, and the American Israelite
of Cincinnati are exchanging the
usual civilities and compliments so
common among our confreres. The
"casus belli'', as usual is the ques-
ton of the relative merits Of Jewish
orthodoxy and reform in America
and of their respective schools for
the training of their religious lead
ers. When will our brothers realize
that it is folly for the two houses
of Israel to throw stones at each
other, as both have a considerable
number of glass windows that may
be broken during the performance?

AUSTRIA ACCOMPLISH IN
POLISH OUTRAGES.

The systematic economic ard poll
itical oppression of the Jews, in Pol
ish territory occupied by Austria
is connived in by the Austrian au-
thorities, according to charges made
by leading Jew of Lublin, whose
name is withheld for obvious rea-
sons. All Polish parties are: parties
to this oppression, and the Austrian
authorities "tacitly promote" them,
says the accuser.
In detail, he says: Jews have
been barred from preparatory courses
for masons and master builders
who are being trained for the work
of restoration of the cities and
towns ruined by the war. No Jews
are admitted to the grammar schools
in the entire province of Lubhn. Of
the 200 Jewish councillors in the
Austrian occupied territory not one
was elected to the conference of the
Cities Union. Not single ew was
appointed to the district adninistra-
tons in the 38 cities within the oc-
cupied zone. When in Ch,>lm, an
equal number of Jewish and Polish
deputies were chosen, thu Poles
protested by resigning their seats.

religions and will be respected by
the Jewish rulers of the land. 1t
further reminds the Arabs of the en-
deavor of the Arabs in Arabia to
establish an independent state there
and such protest as issued by the
Arabs in England can do nothing
but injury to the aspirations OF
their brethren at home. The same
arguments as are advanced by them
against Jewish state will then be
made in reference to the establish
ment of an Arabian state.

THE ARABS IN PALESTINE.


Everywhere man meets obstacles
that he must overcome, difficulties
that he must surmount. Opposition
is our most common experience, the
opposition of the elements and forces
of nature, and the opposition of our
own kind.
Zionists understand that the
great aim of the establishment of a
national Jewish home in Palestine
will not be reached at one bound,
without encountering obstacles, and
meeting opposition in expected and
unexpected quarters. Zionists
have realized it all along. Anti
Zionists have realized it, too, and
of course, have magnified the mat
ter, and used it as one of their
stock arguments against the move
ment. AS if anything in life is ever
accomplished without a struggle
against opposing forces; as if there
is any birth without labor and BIRTH
throes.
1t was to be expected, for exam
pie, that the Arabs of Palestine and
of Syria would have something to
say regarding the aspirations of the
Zionists, and something that would
not be in full harmony with such
aspirations. The Arabs are the
present-day natives of the land, and
have suffered a great deal from
Turkish misrule and oppression.
While they are anxious to get rid OF
the corrupt and incompetent Turk
ish. government, they are not will
ing to submit to new authorities, es-
pecially such as are not of their own
race.
True, the Arabs have not shown
themselves capable of rehabilitatlng
the country. During their centuries
of occupation it has remained in the
state of desolation into which it fell
after the Roman conquest. They
have continued to live their print
tive mode of life, poor and wretched,
having few wants that require lit
tie exertion to be satisfied. And yet,
they have come to think of Palestine
as their own by right of former
conquest and centuries long occupa-
tion.
1t is not surprising, therefore,
when we learn that a number Of
Moslem Arabs residing in England
sent to the Secretary for Foreign
Affairs, Mr.. Balfour, strong protest
against the famous British declara>
ton. The Arabs declare in this pro-
test that the special privileges
granted to the Jews by this declara-
+ion will make it possible for the
The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1918-05-24
THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

gest that the best way of governing
Palestine would be to establish
council, in which there shall be rep
resentatives of the Jewish, Christian
and Mohammedan populations, in
proportion to the population of each
creed, and that the followers of each
creed should have the same rights
and privileges in the land.
The protest further asserts that
the Jews have no special claim to
Palestine, since they have been away
from the land for eighteen hundred
years and even when they obtained
possession of the land it was by
means of deceit and cruel behavior
towards the original inhabitants.
1t is quite possible that this pro-
test is piece of German propagan-
da and intrigue against England.
Then, again, it may be genuine
expression of feeling on the part of
these would-be spokesman of the
Arab races. We doubt if England
will pay the least attention to their
arguments. Mr. Balfour in his dec
laration has made it very clear that
the rights of all in Palestine will be
equally protected, and the interests
of all equally safeguarded. The
Jews are the last people on earth to
desire to engage in the oppression
and exploitation of other people. In
the competition between the differ
ent elements of the population for
progress and development, ability,
industry, brain-power, organization,
knowledge and experience will
count. Should the Arabs fall be-
hind in the race, it will be their own
fault.
But the Arabs do not depend up
on Palestine as their only center,
home, and hope Their home is
Arabia, vast territory of great
possibilities. Other centers of
theirs are in Syria and Mesopotamia.
1t is there that they have right
to seek and to establish undisputed
sway. In Egypt, too, they form a
majority. They can we'll afford to
make room in Palestine for the Jews,
who were it's occupants for thous-
sand years, and made it a land actu-
ally flowing with milk and honey.
The sentiment of the English
government regarding the attitude
of the Arabs is probably reflected
in the reply of the Manchester
Guardian, the liberal organ, which
has from the start advocated the
granting of Palestine to the Jews.
The Guardian first draws the dis
q tofo

that the Jewish boys will not be
discouraged and fight any the less
bravely on account of it.

GERMAN TREAcHERY

An instance Of cowardly treachery
on the part Of captured German
officer who had been wounded and
who had been offered help by an
American officer is told by Lieute-
nant Edward Nichols Of Jamaica, n. Y
After the last big drive of the Allies
in August, Lieutenant Nichols was
placed in charge of company OF
soldiers whose tssk it was to clear
the field Of American dead and
wounded. Although his duties did not
require him to aid the German wound
ed on field until the Americans were
disposed Of, Lieutenant Nichols, who
is only % years old, went to the as
sistance of German infantry offic-
er who seemed more than any of his
comrades to be in need Of succor.
The Lieutenant was in the act of
christening his canteen and giving
the wounded man a drink of water
when the German drew revolver
while the unsupecting Ameri-
Aan'B face was turned and aimed
it at the head of his rescuer.
Before he could pull the trigger,
however, quick-witted American SER
geant plunged his bayonet through

one of the cars created profound i'm

AMERICAN CAMFOUFLAGE

along the edge of the road at the en-
trance to the American camouflage
station behind the American lines in
France. 1t looks as natural as the
real woods along the fighting front,
with shiny silver bark of the bee

old apple trees and the sprouting
tops of the dwarf willows.
Yet, every tree In the camouflage

an observer peers forth to watch the

this American camouflage station is

Camouflage is one OF the distinct

first time by General de Castlenau,
Chief of Staff of General Joffre. The
word is not good French. but comes
