The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1919-11-28

The King of Roumania and many
Roumanian statesmen have re-
peatedly stated to me with GER
tain pride that pogroms were never
made upon the Jews in Roumania.
Unfortunately this statement is not
true. Pogroms were made there up
on the Jews in the months of
October and November, 1918. |
shall give here detailed account
of the pogrom in Bucharest, the
capital Of Roumania, which occurred
on the 18th of November, 1918, and
lasted three days.
This occurred during the time of
the .armistice. The German armies
which at that time had occupied
two-thirds of Roumania including
Bucharest, decided to withdraw. In
a Bucharest newspaper, on No
vember End, appeared the rumor that
pogrom was being organized. The
next day the same paper printed
a leading article entitled, "A Trying
Moment. which warned the gov
ernment to prevent pogrom upon
the Jews, because it would harm the
country in the coming peace negotia-
tions. On November 9th another
paper printed an article, signed by
a former minister, in which the at
tention of the government was
called to the fact, that together with
anti -Bolshevik propaganda there is
also much propaganda against the
Jews. On November 9TH the same
paper wrote: "Our Jewish fellow
citizens are threatened with
pogroms It is openly and quietly
said that powerful movement is
afoot against the Jews and that
blood will be she'd"
The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1919-11-28

On November 4th the Central
Committee of the s'Union of Rou-
manian Jews" sent a written mem
orandum to General Arion, the vice
president of the Ministry, in which
he was informed: IF rom many cities
of the country, especially from those
of the regions occupied by the Ger
mans, there come to us reports that
pogroms are being organized against
the Jews. The names of the organ
izers are also given. To our knowl-
edge, the organizers of these po-
groms are not foreigners but police
and other officials At present we
cannot give you their names but
their work is being done openly. 1t
is absolutely necessary that you take
the proper measures in this mat
ter. The Jewish population, after
having suffered from the terrible
war, has firmly resolved to defend
their families and meagre posses
sions with the courage Of despair:
The Jews have made enough sac
rifces in the war and will not allow
themselves to be slaughtered and
robbed. A civil war is being
threatened and no one knows how it
will end. We consider it Our duty
to bring these facts to your notice
in order that you may take the
necessary steps for the prevention
of the calamity. In 1907 we had
a similar calamity as result of
strong propaganda against the
Jews" General Arion made no di-
rect reply to the memorandum but
stated in newspaper interview that
the Jews are panic-stricken with the
fear of pogrom, but advised that

they should be calm, and he would
keep order by military force.
On November 9th the paper
"Steagul," the organ of the Con
servative party, which until that
time had not printed word about
the pogrom agitation, also published
an article in which it stated that
there is afoot' strong movement
against the Jews" It hoped, how
ever, that the government would
keep order. On November 10th the
same paper again printed an article
stating that "as soon as the Ger
mans will withdraw, according to
a rumor that has been afoat for the
past several days, pogroms will be
organized against the Jews"
On November 18th the pogrom
began.
I have given the foregoing de-
tails because they show very clear
1y that the pogrom was openly or
ganized, that the government knew
of it, and was given timely warning
to take the necessary steps for the
protection of the Jews. This time,
however, it was the Jews who de-
Tended themselves they organized
their defense as they intimated to
General Arion, for they saw that
they could expect very little aid
from the government-and in fact,
received none at the beginning.
| shall here tell what one of the
organizers of the Jewish Defense
Committee related to me:
"The pogrom agitation went on
openly and undisturbed, for over
week. We went thru the experience
of one pogrom in 1907 and we knew
what we had to expect. We ap-

Ball Game At Sunday School Picnic.
The big feature of the M. E. picnic
last Thursday at Mays Landing was
the baseball game between the happy
married men and the spruce single
men. Freas and Clark was the bat
terry for the singles and Joe" Smith
and Willis Conover for the doubles"
1t is reported that erstwhile Judge
Payne HE'D himself to an ~apothecary's
to procure a liberal supply of Omega
Oil. Judge did some good playing and
deserved the medal for steady plug
cling. Joe Smith was there behind
the bat. Willis Conover, by way of
error, started to roll the pill down to
the batter, being Influenced by memo
ries of the bowling alley. Harry Walk
did some steady playing, with a savor
of professionalism. Leon Thomas add
ed to the conquest by good batting.
Clarence Conover, while not very talk
alive, did some good base-running. And
Ward-Ward Conover, oh boy! he
planted n ball two feet underground
in the region of Somers Point! Harry
Miller had good smuggling qualities and
speed and did ONE AL coaching. Earl
Fairbrothers added laurels to the mar
ried crowd by good playing. The
scribe is unable to speak of the single
men for lack of space-but they did
good work-save in the losing. Reu-
ben L. Babcock was keeper of the
tally and reports the score as 16 to II
in favor of the men with wives.

Undecided.

Observation-Disclosures. If he isn't, those
who know his story agree that he's a
close second.
With a puzzled look in his eye he
strolled into the San Francisco Y. M.
G.. A. and sought Prof. W. NJ. Proctor
of Stratford, who gives free vocation
al advice to discharged soldiers. and
sailors. And here is what he said:
81 attended a college east up to
three months of graduation time. Then
I decided that a degree wasn't of any
particular value, so I left. / went in
to a business school and became an
accountant. But 1 didn't like account.
ancy and 1 entered law school.
"a few months before l would have
been graduated 1 decided that 1 was
not made to be a lawyer, so 1 left
and started studying craftsmanship.
"After selling for a time, l decided
I'd rather be a dentist. One year in
dental college was all 1 could stand,
Now l want to get into some new oc-
cupation that will give me a chance
to satisfy my inclination toward ideal
istic philosophy.
The professor advised him to cul-
tivate a liking for one occupation he
had followed and develop his philo-
sophical interests as an avocation.
But I don't know which of my near
professions to cultivate" said the man
shaking his head.

ROOSEVELT'S DEPARTING
WORDS TO HIS COUNTRYMEN

Col. Roosevelt died about O'Clock
on the morning of January 6. The
previous evening at a great patriotic
rally in the New York Hippodrome a
message was read from him, written
especially for the occasion In it was
this striking sentence:
1--WE have room for but one flag, the
American flag, and this excludes the
red flag, which symbolizes all wars
against liberty and civilization just as
much as it excludes any foreign flag
of a nation to which we are hostile,
and we have room for but one
soul loyalty, and that is loyalty to the
American people"
