HOW l WAS CURED.
BY Tn. G. Masaryk, President Of
Czechoslovak Republic.

Copyright, 1920, by I. J. p. B.
In the fifities Of the last century,
every Slovak child in the vicinity Of
Goding was nurtured In an atmos-
phere Of anti-Semitism-in school,
church and society at large. Mother
would forbid US to 20 near the Lech-
ners, because, as she said, Jews were
using the blood Of Christian children.
I would therefore make a wide turn
to avoid passing their house, and so
did all my school mates in Czejko-
witz. In church and school we were
often warned against the Jews. When
ever Mr.. Kaplan felt in good humor
he would ask the teacher to start the
"Jewish chorus" a street song in
which the praying manner Of the Jew
was initiated on the mode "tit-tit-tit."
The superstition Of Christian blood
used for passover cakes had become 30
much part and parcel Of my existence
that whenever I chanced to come near
q Jew Iwouldn't do II on purpose,
II would look at his fingers to see
II no blood were there. For long
time / continued at this practice.
Nevertheless liked Mr.. Fuchsel,
"our Mr.. Fuchoel" as we used to call
him at home. can recall that our
family anti-Semitism permitted q
philosophical exception; being child
l was not conscious Of the fact that
DR.. Fuchsel also was Jew. Mr.. Fuch-
sci was a peddler in Goding. Mother
used 10 buy linen from him. From
time to time Mr.. Fuchsel would come
to our house and we were always glad
to see him. He would display his wares
tell US where they were manufac-
tured, and how much Of them he had
sold; he would tell us what was 60
ing on in Cooling and what news there
was In the vicinity, etc. II goes without
saying that such condolences were not
exchanged without some gossip upon
the assumption that the listeners
would keep it secret. Toward the
end he would also present me with a
piece Of pencil. We liked Mr.. Fuchsel.
He was our Mr.. Fuchsel.
By becoming acquainted with each
other, by living together, by economic
mutual relations blood will be forgot

Jews as one would not come in contact
with; every believer in the murder Of
Christian children for ritual purposes
would concede that there was . Mr.,
