Can a Modern State Be
 Founded On a Religious
 Basis of Government?
BY JOSEPH REINACH. (Jewish Journalist, PubHcist, Histor-
 fan.(

London, April 17.-If by Zfonism one is to understand the foundation of Jewish colonies or centres in Pal estine the intervention of the Peace Conference is useless. Jewish colonies are already in existence, thanks to the liberality of M. Edmond de Roths- child. Full and complete liberty should be given to other Jewish col onies in course of formation, as also to Roman Catholic, Protestant, Greek and Armenian colonies, to establish themselves in Palestine, subject to the laws of the country. But if by Zionisrn is understood the constitution of a Jewish State in Palestine, I say plain ly and resoIutely, No. Even in the time when the Russian Jews or the Roumanian Jews were arbitrarily and unjustly deprived of their rights as subjects or as Russian or Roumanian citizens, the idea of a Jewish State in Palestine was based a misconcep- ton.
 It might be legitimate to attempt to create a homeland for millions of unfortunates to whom intolerance re- fused a shelter in their native lands. Nevertheless the persecuted Jews of Russia or Roumania had no more rights then in Palestine than they have at the present time. The new laws of Russia and Roumania have placed the Jews in those countries in possession of the same rights-and i the same duties-as the Christians | and Mussulmans. Those Jews tnere- fore have country to which they | belong.
 It would be well, on the other | hand, that the League of Nations, by means of a special article in its con- | 1 bershtp only those nations which re- 1 cognise and practice the absolute equality of all religions and all phil osophies.
 Jewish State an Absurdity. | I repeat what I have already said
 many times, that Zionism in the form l of a Jewish State in Palestine is an absurdity.
 1 The very idea of State based on 1 religion is contrary to all the prin- 1 ciples of the modern world. Even in ancient times it would have been con-
 sidered absurd.
 There was a Jewish nation in the days of the Kingdom of Isreal For l twenty centuries there has been nc 1 Jewish nation.
 The fact that there existed in re- ! mote times a kingdom of Israel ir | Jerusalem does not give the Jews
 special claim to Jerusalem. Twenty l different peoples have occupied Pal. . estine; the Assyrians, the Persians 1 the Egyptians the Greeks, the Ro. mans, the Byzantines, the Arabs. the Moguls, the Turks, and so on. There | was once upon a time Latin ol l French kingdom at Jerusalem Christianity arose in Palestine; ter
 usalem is one of the three Holy Cttie: ! of Islam.
 The Jews cannot even rely on the
 Flaw of the first occupier" They con l quered Jerusalem from the Jebu 1 sites There are still possibly in ex istence descendants of the Jebusites The Jews were only one of the mum
 erous Arab or Semitic tribes who es | tablished themselves in Western Asia 1 The Jews of Pa1estinian descen form an infinttesinal minority. Int

Jews had converted to the monoth- efstic religion of Moses, certain other Semttes Cor Arabs) and Greeks, Egyptians, and Romans in large numbers. Jewish proseIytism was no less active subsequently in Asia, in the whole of Northern Africa; in Italy, in Spain, in Gaul. The con- verted Romans and Gauls were no doubt in a dominant position in the Jewish communities mentioned in the chronicles Of Gregory of Tours.
 A Mixed People.
 There were a large number of con- verted 1berians among the Jews whom Ferdinand, the Catholic, ex- pelled from Spain, and who overran Italy, France, and, in the East, Sal onfka and smyrna. The immense majority of the Russian, Polish, and Galician Jews are descended from the Khaers, a Tartar tribe of South ern Russia, who were converted in a body to Judaism a. about the time ot Char1ema gne. No one can speak ot a Jewish race except from ignorance or a design to deceive. There was a Semitic or Arab race; there has never been a Jewish race.
 Since the Revolution, through the instrumentality of Mfrabeau and the Abbe Gregoire, decreed the equality of all religions, the expression I French Jews" has no longer beer admissible. There are Frenchmer who are Jews just as other French. men are Roman Catholics or Pro. testants. How can the blood 0. French Jews, which has been shed ir torrents on the battIeffelds from 1914 ] to 1918, be distinguished from the blood of Roman Catholics, Protest ants, or Free Thinkers?
 And it is the same with other peo pies and other Jews. As, therefore there Is no Jewish race or Jewish nation, but only a Jewish religion Zionism is undoubtedly an absurdity "a triple error; historical, archzeol ogical. and ethnical.

Talmadge's latest Select picture. IN

a dash OF drama and a most unusual
plot. 1t is not a shoddy triangle story

fight against the realities Of life.
The story is unusual from start to
finish. The author, Edwina Levin. has
kept away from the bromide and the
expected, and although she works with
perfectly natural human situations she
turns them about in a way that makes
them totally new and amazing.
1t is undoubtedly a picture which will
evoke comment, and which will not be
forgotten after the audience has left
the theater. Whose fault was it that
the young folks didn't succeed in their
laudable attempts to be happy though
