begged again, not from one man
in all this great empire, did we
get a sum equivalent to what
this young Baptist has pledged
to his church. And then we call
ourselves the Chosen People"
"Chosen"-for what?
You tell us that you are called
on every day-and you have
I ,ur obligations. Don't you sup
ose that these Baptists, and the
Episcopalians and the Presbyter-
ians, who are also raising funds,
also have their other obliga-
tions? You give to your congre-
gations-don't you suppose that
they give to theirs? There is a
church in Fort Worth with a
membership of eighteen hun
dred men, women and chill
dren The church maintains a
pastor, an associate pastor, a
pastors assistant, and a friendly
visitor. Who do you suppose pays
for this? This same church re-
built its edifice a few months
ago-and a number of the men,
bers gave $4,000 and many S5,-
600 for its construction. How
many Jews in this part of the
world have given $4,000 to-
wards building a Jewish House
of Worship?
We know of several in differ
ent parts of this empire who
have given or promised to give
$4,000. But we have yet to find
one who thinks enough of his re-
ligion to build a Temple with his
$4,000. We have fifty men
within a radius of 300 miles who
could subscribe $4,000 to the
Jewish relief fund-and not miss
it. How many did? Within the
last few years houses of wor-
ship have been built in Waco,
Shreveport, Tulsa, Dallas, FL
Paso-and they are working on
the plans for one at Fort Worth.
Not in one of these cities has
more than $4,000 been subscrib-
ed from an individual towards a
house of worship. We have mon
ey for every conceivable luxury

in the world. What we don't
spend on luxuries-for we need
not consider necessaries-we put
away. And our pile has not de-
creased during these last few
years-especially in the South
west. Well what have we gained
by the increase in material re-
sources? Stinginess, arrogance,
self-deception, social aloofness,
big-headedness, and besides all
of these, the spiritual drouth has
become drier.
The poor Jews are still giving;
the poor are still sacrificing, the
poor are still the backbone of
Jewry, as they were in the days
of the Psalms.
We Jews ought to be truthful
with ourselves. We ought to
confess our sins-maybe we
would then try to remedy them;
we ought to admit that we are
making ourselves spiritually
bankrupt; ideally, material; re-
ligiously, hypocritical, and Jew.
ishly, well, let us not take the
Holy Name of our faith, in vain,
Why have our fathers prayed,
studied and then suffered? Why
have we been prosecuted, op-
pressed, manned and killed?
Why have our children suffered
and why have they sacrificed
careers rather than accept bap-
tiSm? Shall we be forced to
answer: "To give to the world a
People of Book, which has be-
come the People Without the
Book; to give to the world a race
that held its idealism intact
through oppression, and then
lost it in times of freedom; to
show the world that the Jew
could endure until he became
wealthy, then he exchanged the
symbol of the coin of the realm,
for the Torah, the symbol of his
faith; to show to the world that
of all people of ancient days, the
Jew alone has been spa:5o to be
the example of undying disloyal-
ty to faith of his fathers"
To your tents, o, Israel.

funeral pyre rather than give up
their faith; he is not one of
those who claim to be "merciful
sons of a Merciful Father" He
is Just a good plain Baptist who
has needed the call of his faith.
Another ''nOwn for his
extreme Co.. "a:1 70 >" such
matters, we mean :. TON, ,S,ss, ;,
ters, gave more than $lU,s qas;s,
this fund. This is a hard d-headeu
business man, we can't tell you
what business he's in, who
counts his dollars, but the call of
faith was LOUDER to him than
the call of the silver, and he gave
princely. And this man can not
boast of his martyr ancestors"
he cannot say that he is proud
of being a Jew he cannot boast
of the Ten Commandments" he
can only maintain that he be-
longs to the Baptist church and
the church is worth at least that
much of a sacrifice. We have yet
to find a single Jew in this
great Southwest who has given
this much-with the exception
of one.
Another instance: One of the
smaller business men In Fort
Worth gave $12,5OO. He was
asked how he could do this, and
this was the substance of his re-
ply: He had done fairly well the
last few years; he came to Fort
Worth, so we were told, with a
few loose pennies in his pocket,
He had saved up the first S25OO
of the Sl2,500 he was going to
pledge, and he felt sure that by
the time four years had elapsed,
he would have the rest paid. He
had prospered, and he was will
ing that his church should pros
per, too. He knew that in some
way he would be able to pay the
other $4,000. And he will pay
it. But what faith What a spir-
it! Why, through the terrible
times of the war, when millions
of our people were dropping dead
because of lack of nourishment,
and we begged and begged and

OUR WEAKNESS.

We have been interested in the
last few weeks, in watching a
number of drives" that various
churches have been carrying on.
The one in which we were par
ticularly interested was the larg-
est Of these, the S75,0OO,0O0
drive of the Southern Baptist
church. This money was to be
raised in the South only, and the
organization that was to raise it
was composed largely of South
ern men. They went to work,
and the latest report is that the
quota was oversubscribed, by at
least.five million dollars-almost
a third of the amount raised for
Jewish War Relief from all over
the country.
Right after the drive started,
several men and women came
forward with sums of $4,000,
$4,000 and $4,000. In our i'm
mediate vicinity, those who came
forward were men and women
who were by no means known as
the extremely wealthy. They
came because of the call of their
church and their faith.
When we heard that one of the
churches near us went over the
goal with several thousand dol
lars to spare, we were curious to
find out how it was done. We
knew that there were a very few
wealthy men in the congregation
but these alone could not raise
more than 100000. Here are
some of the facts that we found
out:
The wealthiest man in the con-
gregation-and he is not reputed
to be a Croesus-gave $4,000.
That is pretty good sum to
come from one man, in a church
that has just been finished, and
which he largely financed. And
he is one of the "Chosen People"
his fathers did not die on the
