The Jew and Public Opinion
BY DR. SAMUEL GROSS.

they meet, and it alloys the cordiality
of their greeting.
By virtue of the diverging lines in
the social and the religious life of the
Jew it appears to the outside world
that it is the Jews wish to avoid it
and further that the non-Jewish
world about him is an abomination to
him. 1t is only one step more to the
notion that the Jew wishes them i'll
and will crafty this wish whenever he
can. This is very natural mistake
for the outside world to make.
If in ones immediate neighborhood
lives a person that habitually avoids
the social and community paths of
that neighborhood for any reason
however plausible, a misunderstand-
ing of that persons motives will re-
suit and a readiness to believe any
thing in his disfavor will follow.
The diverging lines then of the Jews
social and religious life are absolute
ly essential to his preservation as a
distinct race. These lines separating
him from the particular social and
general religious paths of the COM
munity with it's resultant misunder-
standing, prepare the soil of public
opinion for the planting of any false
prejudices that it may serve any one
to encourage.
The average fair and open minded
person admires the Jew for his peace
ableness and his progress but he can
not prevent any more than the Jew
might under similar circumstances,
that feeling of envy toward people
with whom he lacks that racial or
traditional bond sufficient to warrant
his sharing in that peoples glory. 1t
is a common thing for Jewish
student to win some scholastic or ora
torical honors for his college. His
college mates are elated over the vic
tory when they regard him as their
fellow collegian. The glory brought
to the school is reflected upon them.
They feel rightly or wrongly that
their personal stock has gone up with
the victory and that it will inspire
greater Difference to the name of their
college in which they personally will
share. When they regard him as
Jew his victory pains them. His vic
tory as Jew reflects no glory upon
them, in fact his victory seems an in
tangible reproach. A mistaken feel
ing creeps over them that their stand

ened with an eclipse and they must
rally around it. Yet they have not
been denied a single opportunity to
advance their standard to the farthest
point within their natural ability as
the Jew has.
On the one hand they admire the
Jew for his progress and on the other
hand they fall prey to those unto
ward influences from which the broad
est are not free and upon which can
be built false and malicious senti-
ment against the Jew of the most
menacing proportions.
There are various agencies whose
black purpose it may serve to fan
these smouldering embers Of poten-
tial anti-Jewish feeling in the indi-
vidual, into a composite mass and
consuming flame. First among these
is the clergy.
The clergy of the present and 9TH
ard has been abased, that it is threat
err days is goaded by the thought of
the Jew because his teachings are
stubborn refutation of all that it
trades in. The clergy is ill disposed
toward the Jew from pure malice. 1t
prejudices the pliable mind of the
child in it's early years with stories
of Christ killing and blood rituals.
AS the child grows older and the racial
manners of the Jew show up by their
contrast with his, it is not impossible
that his feeling becomes more bitterl
as his intelligence is less developed \
The average gentle, however, broadu
ems sufficiently to shed his faith in
the malicious lies breathed into his
young soul. This change would be a
very happy one were it not that the
divergence in their social and reli-
gious paths continued the breach by
the Misunderstanding that it en-
genders.
l have known of free thinkers
among Jews who were devotees of
Ingersoll. Long before they knew of
him, they had observed the mistakes
in the new testament. When Ingersoll
spoke of these mistakes they were the
better pleased. Long before they had
heard of Ingersoll they had observed
the mistakes of Moses. When Inger-
soil spoke of them they resented it.
In our minds we tend to associate an
attack on a Jewish subject from an
outsider with a general hatred of the
race. This hatred of course affects

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

our personal welfare as member
of the race We forget the imper-
sonal aspect of the controversy, the
broad charitable principles involved
and our first impulse is to rush to
our own defense. This does not apply
when another Jew attacks the same
subject.
When a gentle is bettered in any
transaction by another gentle he may
nurse a feeling against the individual
but he cannot entertain the same feel
ing against the race because he him
self belongs to it. When Jew bet
tiers a gentle in any transaction he
nurses a grievance not only against
the individual Jew but against the
entire race. Few gentiles have not at
common dealing with Jew or been
a witness to such. This adds another
spark to the dormant flame that is
ready at any time to burst into a
holocaust
Jews figured prominently in the
cause of Russian liberty many years
ago. When the progress Of this cause
disturbed the peace and threatened
the security of Russia's Bureaucracy,
the receptive minds of the unthinking
masses were infamed by malignant
lies and the Pogrom restored peace
and rest to the reactionaries, for thus
the wrath of the masses was dissi-
pated.
Perhaps the momentary triumph of
some Jew, one Jew or two in a popu-
lation of $50 millions in one of Rus
sia's colleges or her boards of trade
caused the nation to tremble for the
supremacy Of it's Christian standard.
\ The same fear has come to the
hearts of some of Americas financial
lords and they are nursing a feeling
: against the Jew. Either because it
will satisfy their most natural crav-
ing for vengeance for fancied wrong
to which they cannot and have not
pointed because it will serve
their worldly ends to excite the pub
lie against the Jew they are conduct
ing foul campaign against the Jew
ish race in the hope that it will take
root in the psychological disadvan-
tages that envelop him, and crush, in
timidate or exclude him from our
shores.
Other propaganda that would be in
teresting and ridiculous if it were not
so tragic is making it's way out of
Germany. The German psychologist
knows the potentialities of anti
semitism everywhere He has con-
ceived the idea that he can take the
gullible world by the neck and thrust
