WARS AND ANTI-SEMITlSM
By Prof. Gotthard Deutsch.

y
The Rockefeller Institute had not yet
discovered the kind of salve used on
this occasion, and persists in cultivat-
ing the useless bacilli as originators of
the plague, but there can be no doubt
about the existence and the efficacy of
such salve. Any number of docu-
ments, deposited in the archives, prove
it.
Some historians, Graetz among them,
have an excuse to offer for this error
of medieval Christians. Jews, they say,
living temporarily and more careful in
their habits, were comparatively i'm
mune from the plague on their enc
mics I do not see the necessity for
such an apology. Numerous records
that I was able to examine, prove to me
that Jews suffered from the plague like
others. Worms and Frankfort show in
a plague year about ten times the num-
Der of deaths than the average. Verena,
Vienna and Zelkiew have to buy addi-
tiOnal ground for their cemeteries In
Prague they flee from the city and
everywhere the rabbits ordain fasts and
simply another mode of babys striking
the table. In more enlightened times,
as in 1881 when the cholera made it's
appearance in Europe, Jewish phys-
clans were supposed in some districts
to have been hired by the rich to re-
duce the number of the poor who be-
came too inconveniently numerous, by
giving them a powder which caused the
cholera.
Evils are often relative, and so it
may happen that Jews are supposed to
be responsible for two opposite things,
just according to the likes or dislikes
of the accuser.
Variety of Charges.
Adolph Stoecker, court chaplain to
the king of Prussia, one of the pillars
of Anti-Semitism, said in the Reichs-
tag, Dec. IA, 1905, that the Jews are
the sole cause of social unrest among
the masses. Just as if Providence had
designed a refutation London papers
of Dec. Is, 1905, reported that Burns,
the British labor leader, accused the
Jews of "ox-like submission to author
ity." Neither of the two is original.
The citizens of Rome claim in a petit
ton to the Pope, after the evacuation
of Italy by the French, 1893, that the
Jews are "ribelli ad egni potesta." U.s.
.ually they are denounced as always
siding with the party in power. Stock
er was in no way original. He merely
reaped the fruit of the labor of anoth-
er man who has long been forgotten. A
pastor by the name of Rudolph Tedt,
started first the movement leading to an
adoption of some of the socialist doc
trines by the church. AS sympathizer

The Psychological Root of Anti
SenitiSIn.

SemitiSm.
Have you ever observed a baby, strik-
ing it's head against the edge of the
table? On it's first impulse it clinches
it's little fist and deals a determined
blow to the wicked table which caused
it the pain, and at once baby feels bet
ter
Men and women are grownup babies.
Their psychology does not grow with
their experience in life. Something
happens to them which provokes them,
and they have to find criminal who
was responsible for their grief. AS late
as 1863, the town of Pitiglians in Italy,
had a rather unique amusement for it's
boys, probably dating from medieval
times. Boys armed with clubs, used
to go into a church on Good Friday,
where beam was stored for this occa
sion, and carrying this beam through
the streets, they made an unearthly
music with tin horns, stove pipes and
the like, at the same time belaboring
the beam with heavy clubs and swear
ing at it in Italy's most expressive
billingsgate After having amused
themselves sufficiently, they deposited
the beam back in it's former place, the
more energetic of the crowd continuing
their exercises by similarly belabOring
the doors of the Jewish houses.
The beam was supposed to be the
symbol of the pole to which Jesus was
tied, when they smote him, and thus
represented the Jews who were to be
given the punishment which baby ad-
ministers to the wicked table. Very
often, in fact as rule, the Jews did not
enjoy the protection of the vicarious
beam and were dubbed rather unsym-
bolically. Nor was their responsibility
confirmed to the supposed crime COM
mitted by their ancestors SO many CEN
turtles ago. They had the privilege to
be held responsible for every i'll that
happened to come along. The most
typical case of this kind is the charge,
first heard of in the middle of the four
teenth century, that they had caused
the bubonic plague by poisoning the
wells. The charge was proven occa-
sionally by some vagabond who was ar
rested and, being asked on the rack
what had brought him to town, he
would confess after a twist of the
thumb screw that the Jews had hired
him to scatter some powder into the
wells or to smear some greenish salve
on the doors of the houses If he did
not at once remember the names of his
employers, another turn of the screw
would reassure him at once that it was
really Mordche or Feivush whom the
inquisitOr had suspected from the start.

anti-socialist tendencies because they
lack the spirit of real internationalism,
being clannish by nature. The advo-
Gates of autocracy know differently.
Prince Chledwig Hohenlohe, at one
time German chancellor, quotes Maxine
Ducamp, the famous French traveller
and poet, as authority for the allega-
ton that the Jews, being cosmopolitan
by nature, are the pioneers of the idea
of internationalism.
War and Peace.
Zemshtchina, the organ of the Rus
sian Black Hundred, who were anxious
for the war as help to CZarism, when
diplomacy was not yet ready, claimed
in 1911 that the Jews are responsible
for the peace movement because, being
towards, they are averse to fighting.
The Rheinisch-West Failische Zeitung,
organ of the German junker and NUM-
tion maker party, holds the same idea,
but on different grounds. The clamor
for peace that began in 1915, was un-
welcome to the patrons of the paper,
and the paper charged it to the always
handy Jewish table. The Jews are for
peace now as they were in NapOleonic
times, because being stock brokers and
bond holders, they are afraid that one
party may repudiate it's debts, if the
war continues too long. The stock
brokers' interest is charged by other
men with just the opposite tendencies.
The German historian, Treitschke, ex-
plains in his works the long duration of
the Napoleonic wars with the Unsuitable
greed of the "pawnbroker," Rothschild,
for whose sake the nations of Europe
had to be bled white. David Starr Jor-
dan, ex-president of Leland Stanford
University, gave us the same version,
once in an address delivered at Wash
ington, Dec. 16, 1910, and then again
in public address at Kansas City, Nov.
8, 1912. Professor Jordan afterwards
denied having used such words, but we
have the proceedings of the Society for
Settling International Disputes, the re-
port in the Kansas City Star and his
own preface to Atherton's unseen En-
pre-" as witnesses to the truth of this
statement. The main thing to us is not
the individual author, but the fact One
says the Jew wants peace, because he is
a coward, the other says he wants war
to protect his financial interests, and
the third says he wants peace just for
this reason.
Sides i'm the War.
Just as the Jew is charged with bel
ligerent or pacific interests, according
to the dislike of the accuser, SO he is
charged with sympathy for one or the
other side in war, always supposed to
be favoring the side which the accuser
dislikes. The taatsbuergerzeitung,"
Stoecker's organ, serving the interests
of Protestant clericalism and of the
landed aristocracy, was clamoring for
the war in 1913 as was on the other
the Jews as traders are against protec-
ton, and a Bohemian anti-semitic pa

Justice and Fair Play.

Colonel Alexander p. Moore, pub
Usher Of the Pittsburg Leader, and
one of worst corporation baiters in
the country, never overlooked an op-
portunity to attack the street railway
company of his city. He turned loose
in the most vicious form when the
company had to ask for increased fare
or go broke. Here is Colonel Moore's
own story, as told by himself in col
umns Of his own paper:
81 was very busy attacking the
Company in Pittsburg, and strove as
earnestly as | could to see that it did
MT get the increased fare its officials
said it must have if it was to live.
"As an outcome of the fight learn
ed something. The Company was
denied the raise and driven into the
hands of receiver. Some unthink-
ing ones believed that a victory. 1t
wasn't. 1t was defeat. The receiver
quickly proved to the court that even
II six-cent fare wasn't enough and that
he must have seven-cent fare if the
Company was to meet the increased
wage scale and the inflated prices for
material, with the greater cost of
maintenance and operation. Today the
people of Pittsburg are paying a seven
cent fare"
Referring to higher fare granted
steam roads when taken over by gov
ernment. Couonel Moore adds: "In
very truth the trolly lines are doing
the same kind of work steam roads
are doing; are buying same kind ma
terials and paying almost same wages
Their conditions and their needs are
