is 1T BREAKING DOWN?

~
A news item carries the in
formation that Arnold Horween
of Chicago, has been elected cap
tain of the 1920 Crimson eleven,
the Harvard football team. This
is probably the greatest honor
that could come to a college man.
The fact of the election of a
young man as captain of the Har-
ward or any other college team,
of itself, is of no particular in
terest to the editor of the Jewish
Monitor. But here is a special
matter of interest.
Horween is a Jewish boy, and
he and his brother were football
stars of the first magnitude dur
ing the four years of their COL
lege career. His ability and lead
ership were recognized, and he
was given the high honor of lead
ing the Harvard eleven. This is
the first time, if our memory
serves US correctly, that a Jew
has ever been elected to the cap
taincy of one of the big college
teams. And the young man and
his parents are to be congratu-
lated.
To outsiders this may be q
matter of negative interest. But
to those who know that our col
leges are infested by fraternities
which are thoroughly anti-Sem-
itic, and which nearly always de-
termine who are to get the COL
lege honors, this fact will mean
much. 1t means that in Harvard
at least. the anti-Jewish-pro-
fraternity spirit has received a
blow. 1t means that even in ath-
letics, a Jew who deserved the
honor, has been awarded what
he Notwithstanding that in
the field of athletics is not often
the case. In the University of
Chicago, a Jewish young man
Hugo Friend, now a prominent
attorney of Chicago, was once
made captain of the track team;
ne was not a fraternity man, be-
cause at that University only
renegades who renowned their
faith were admitted to fraterni-
ties; but against Friends cleo
ton, Fraternity men protested,
though he was one of the best
liked men on the campus. Now
comes Harvard, with Horween!
To men who have followed col
lege sports, this is good news.

friend said, "the sun do move"

schools, in which there is Ger
man propaganda; so also with
regard to Bolshevism, and re-
Elections on the State of Texas,
or on the late Confederacy. To
reflect on the latter would be bad
taste, to say the least. But why
pray, pick out the christian re-
ligion" for special mention? Why
not also the Jewish-why not
all of the great religions? We
have no doubt that every men,
Der of the Textbook Commission
is a Christian, and a good one.
But how does that affect the
thousands of children whose par
ents are not? There are a great
many Jewish children in the
schools; there are a great many
children whose parents profess
no religion at all there are many
children whose parents are not
Christians-and who classify
themselves under other names.
Are these to be subjected to criti-
cism without impunity?
We have reread the Declara-
ton of Independence and the
Constitution of the United
States. We find nothing in there
about Christian, Jew or Moham-
medan. We do not find that this
is Christian country-nor that
it is a Jewish country. We find
in their only the essence of Am
ericanism-and we seriously
doubt whether the word Chris
tian or Jewish, either, is a syn
onym for the word American.
Of late there seems to be a
misunderstanding of the word
American" certainly as applied
to our public schools. The Text
book Commission may be COM
posed of Christians, but that
should not be a personal matter
with them. Politically, they are
Americans, we know; so far as
their public school activities are
concerned, they are Americans,
no matter what else they are,
and they will, we are certain,
agree with us, that their PRIV
ATE RELIGIOUS AFFILIA-
T1ONS have nothing to do with
their services as members of the
Texas Public School Textbook
Commission.
We are certain that the reso-
luton has no intention of slur-
ring any other faith; and we feel
that were there any reflection
in any of the books that could be
construed as a distinctive criti-
cism" of Judaism, the Commits
sion would probably disqualify
the book. But that is not the
question. To make certain of the
fact, the Textbook Commission
should have qualified its state

10 cover This, then we submit
that the Textbook Commission
has made the tactical error of
subordinating one religion to an
other, and this is contrary to the
spirit Of true Americanism. If
Christianity was mentioned, Ju-
daism should have been. 1t is the
religion of thousands of tax-pay-
ers in the State; they have the
same rights before the Law that
professors of other faiths have.
Before the Law, there are no
Christians, there are no Jews,
there are no infidels-there are
Just plain American citizens; and

spirit of the bulwark of Ameri-
can Liberty namely, the Public
Schools, they too, recognize only
American citizenship, and the
task of making American citi-
zens, without regard absolutely.
to the religious affiliations of
scholars.
The Textbook Commission and
the State Superintendent of
Public instruction should not
forget that this is NOT a Chris
tian country, though it is a coun-
try of Christians largely; the
Jews are not here under SUF-
FERANCE; they are here by
right Of birth and the acquisition
of citizenship; we ask no favors
we ask only for equal rights,
which sometimes are denied us
not through desire to do this,
but through thoughtlessness. The
school is NOT the place for relig-
ious propaganda; it is the place
for the incubation of American
ism and American ideals. Relig-
ious instruction has its definite
place in the home and in the
Church and Sunday School-but
if our State authorities have any
doubt about the place of religion
in the public school let them
make a study of the founders of
the Republic and their successors
and they will find what we
have found, namely, that the
foundation of our liberty is the
separation of church and state,
and the basis of citizenship so far
as our children are concerned, is
the public school.
We have faith in the fair
mindedness and in the intense
patriotism of the Textbook Com
sion and the State Superintend-
ent of Schools, and we feel that
all that is needed to make our
schools as well as our textbooks,

After several futile sessions with
the town council of Scranton to try
to come to an agreement as to in
creases in the price of electric cur
rent, the Iowa Railway and Light
Company notified each of it's 800
patrons in that town that hereafter
the rate would be about rs per cent
higher and the minimum was raised
from $1.10 to $1.50. A Scranton
attorney has advised patrons not to
pay their electric light bills for a
while until the matter is definitely
settled.
Scranton is supplied with current
from the Glidden electric plant. A
ten year contract, which still has a
couple of years to run, exists between
the town of Glidden and the Iowa
Railway and Light Co. to furnish
current at a certain wholesale rate,
and the corporation has a franchise
in Scranton for a similar period at
certain retail rate. The company re-
Gently granted the town of Glidden
an increase in rate to come some
where near up TO what the current
costs, and the company is now charg-
ing Scranton users with a similar
percentage OF increase.
