tions. After all we are Jews first
and the loss of one is the loss
of the other. The Orthodox out
number the Reform Jews prob
ably five to one-and what they
gain is eventually the gain of
American Judaism, American
Jews, and America itself. 1t so
happens that because of the very
large number of Jews in the
large cities, most of the unaffil-
lated, and consequently most of
the children, are so-called Ortiz
odox Jews, it is said. If this is so,
then it is highly important that
the children be taken in hand be-
fore it is too late.
AS a matter of fact, the Re-
form Jews are not a whit behind
the Orthodox in the matter of
non-affiliation, and we sincerely
hope that the money will be used
regardless of whether those to
be benefited are either so-called
Reform Jews or so-called Ortho-
dox Jews.

AN EDITORIAL.

The editorial that appeared
in the issue of December 18th,
entitled $50 We Say" dealing
with the setting aside of $780,
600 by the Presbyterian church
es of New York for making mis-
sionary propaganda among the
Jews of that city seemed to me
altogether inadequate. Much
more to the point was the ex-
cerpt from Unity" quoted at
the end of the editorial
| am well aware of the lament
able fact that only one-tenth of
the Jewish people of this country
or about $4,000 are affiliated
with house of worship. That,
however, offers no justification
whatever for the action taken by
the Presbyterians, for if we have
our unaffiliated, so have the
Christians theirs. / have not the
figures at hand, but I know that
| speak without exaggeration
when | say that if not nine
tenths certainly two-thirds of
the non-Jews of the United
States stand without the Chris
tian fold.
The New Testament injunc-
ton found in both Matthew and
Luke would, therefore, seem to
be pertinent. It is as follows:
"And why beholdest thou the
mote that is in thy brothers eye,
but considerest not the beam
that is in thine own eye? g..
Thou hypocrite, first cast out the
beam out of thine own eye and

of the League there can be no
doubt, for, if launching a cam
paign to convert Jews is not
wholesale defamation, / do not
know the meaning of the words.
Once and for all let US put an end
to this miserable business. And
we can hope to do so only by re-
senting with all the strength we
possess this un-American, this
medieval soul-hupting. Let US
say in language that will be un-
mistakable: First put your own
house in order. First bring your
message of salvation to your
own whom you have yet failed
to reach. First make Christians
of those who in theory accept
your Savior and in practice spit
upon Him. First do these things
then come to us and we shall
take no offense.

HOW TO SILENCE THE
CHARACTER ASSASSIN

Our pulpits have been ringing
with bitter denunciations of
Henry Ford for his unwarranted
and venomonous attacks upon
the Jew. Prominent newspapers
throughout the country and out
standing non-Jew have Joined
in these denunciations. The An
ti-Defamation League of the l. o.
B B. is holding meetings every
where to arouse our people to q
realization of the potential harm
of those attacks and of the need
Of cooperation to adequately
meet them. 1t is the announced
plan of the League to launch out
upon campaign of education by
publishing and spreading broad
cast through articles in newspa-
pers and magazines, through
pamphlets and books, the truth
as regards the accusations con-
tanned in these attacks.
That is good as far as it goes,
but in my judgment it does not
go far enough. Education il too
slow a process and too tame. The
character of the attacks and the
fact that their author is so well
known and so wealthy. demand
action that is both speedy and
drastic. / have these two sugges-
tons to offer:
First: | hold that suit for
criminal libel should be brought
against Ford by the nti-Defam-
alton League and that it be au-
thorized to engage the very best
legal talent-both Jewish and
non-Jewish-that the country

the statement that Roosevelt
once made. He said, Being Re-
publican, my first duty it is to
clean the Republican party of all
rottenness. After I have done
that, l shall give my attention to
the Democratic party. The Pres
byterians of New York may well
ponder these wise words of the
great American.
l have no hesitation in saying
that I have always regarded
Christian missionary activity
among Jews, especially in this
country, as a piece of unmitigat-
ed impudence. At this critical pc
riod it is nothing short Of GRIM
inal. That may seem a strong
word to employ, but it is none
too strong to fit the case. When
the Presbyterians take the &C
ton that constitutes the subject
o fthis editorial, they say in eff
feet that the Jew needs convert
ing. By implication they say
more than that. They say that
his religion is inferior, that he is
inferior generally, in patriotism,
in his business methods, in his
social life. He must be a menace
to our country ESQ says the man
of the street). Else why does a
responsible body like the Presby-
terians devote so large sum for
his conversion at a time when
pulpit and newspapers are ring
ing with appeals on behalf of the
100000 starving children of
Europe.
And yet more reprehensible
becomes the action of the Pres
byterians of New York when we
consider that it comes at a time
when the seeds of anti-Jewish
feeling are being sown broadcast
in our fair soil by that consci-
enceless creature of Detroit. The
one is on par with the other.
They may not be conscious of it
but the Presbyterians are as
guilty Of Characterization
sinator as is Ford. The only diff
ference lies in the fact that the
latter openly states wherein the
Jew is a menace while the form
er leaves it to public inference.
It occurs to me- that there is
work here for the Anti-Defama-
ton League to do. If it is to en-
large its program let it strike
also at this evil that ever and
anon-now from one denomina-
ton, now from another-obtrud-
es itself to vex and harm us.

FOR AMERICAN JUDAISM.


that the Three and one half Mil
lion Dollar Fund for the Union
of American Hebrew Congrega-
lions has been raised. In fact the
amount has been over subscrib-
ed. This speaks well for Amer
lean Reform. We have been
awakened to the necessity of
proper organization and ade-
quate propaganda, and the result
has been a splendid response on
the part of American Jewry.
Never before in the history of
Israel has a fund of this sort
been gathered for purely relig-
ious propaganda purposes, and
to the credit of American Re-
form Jews be it said, that this
time they did not shirk their du-
ty.
Much will be done with this
money. The attempt to religion
ize the children itself, will be
worth a thousand times more
than the value of the dollars.
When one realizes that in the
large cities there are thousands
of children who are raised with
out any Jewish training at all,
and that a large part of the in
come of this fund will be used
for the purpose of teaching
these children the elements of
the religion of their fathers, one
will be able to understand the
import of the success of the
movement.
Another department that will
receive attention is that of
teaching the children of the fam
lilies in the smaller cities. This is
an important task, for there are
thousands of children in the
small towns of the country who
know nothing about their relig-
ion, and who grow up outside of
the pale of Judaism, without any
fault of their own. 1t is true that
their parents are responsible to
a large extent for this negligence
but those of us who lived in
small towns can appreciate best
the fact that our fathers were so
busy earning a living or building
a business that they of necessity
had so little time to give to the
instruction of their children that
we received practically no relig-
ious training at all.
We earnestly hope that the
United Synagogue of America
and the Union of Orthodox Con-
gregations will be as successful
in their drives as has the Union
of American Hebrew Congrega-

err and made entries in It, drew de-
sign on paper with a pencil and cut
the drawing out with pair of scis-
sors He demonstrated that he could
do typewriting, and worked substi-
tute for sewing machine. Another ap-
pliance was shown for writing with
a fountain pen The country is show
ing great interest in this invention in

MRS. STOKES is GIVEN
CUSTODY OF MILLI0NAIRE'S
TWO YOUNG CHILDREN


Denver, Colo, Jan. 9.-Airs Helen
Ellwood Stokes, wife o. w +. y.
Stokes, millionaire hotel owner of
New York city, was today awarded
the custody of the couples two young
children, Judge Ben b. Lindsey, of
the juvenile court, granting exclusive
care of the boy and girl to the mother,
until February 2. In the meantime
Judge Lindsey said, attorneys repre-
senting both the father and the moth
er would be permitted to file briefs
touching upon Judge Lindsey's right
to award permanent custody of the
children.
The court action of today was one
of the ramifications of the divorce
suit which Mrs. Stokes filed here some
months ago, the father and husband
being charged with the excessive use
of drugs and other shortcomings IN
the complaint filed by the plaintiff.
When at one period of the morning
session Judge Lindsay intimated that
he might award the children to the
father, Mrs. Stokes declared in a
somewhat, dramatic fashion:
II can only say that | would be
sorry to go against any order issued
by the court, but | would rather kill
my children than to send them into
the home of moral degenerate like

FOUR BRONZE HORSES OF
VENICE RESTORED TO
PLACE AT ST. MARKS

Venice, Jan. 9.--The four bronze
horses which adorned the facade of
st. Marks cathedral have again been
put in place after an absence of more
than two years due to their transfer
TO Rome, where they had been kept
to avoid capture by the Austrians or
destruction by air bombs.
The horses are regarded as the fin
est specimens of ancient bronzes and.
according to tradition, graced the tri-
umphal arch of Nero. In the reign
of Constantine, they were taken by
that emperor to Constantinople. There
they stood until 1904. when they were
brought to Venice and placed on st.
Marks cathedral. There the horses
remained for almost six centuries.
Napoleon, after he had conquered
Venice, took them to Paris to adorn
the arch of Triumph in the Place du
Carrousel. After his defeat at Water
loo they were returned to their origi-
nal place in St Marks, where they re-
manned undisturbed for century.
The horses stnd five feet in height
and are the only ones in existence rep
resenting an ancient chariot quadriga.

ARREST OF AGENTS

Member of Federal Trade
Commission Makes Grave
Charges Regarding Alleged
Reds in Service.

ley MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wrREI
Washington Jan. 9.-Charges that
arrests of federal trade commission
employees, made in the recent depart
ment of justice campaign against
reds" have been the result of
"frame-ups designed TO build the
theory that the commission is a hot
bed of Bolshevism," were made to-
day by W. r. Colver, of that body. be-
fore the senate agriculture committee.
Colver left the intimation that the
larger Chicago packing concerns had
connived in some degree to attain that
result, and involved Ludwig c. A. X.
Martens, self-styled ambassador" for
the Russian soviet republic, and $.
Nuorteva, Martens secretary in his
account of instances to prove the
point.
Colver likewise voiced vigorous
. demand for legislation to regulate the
industry, need of which was proved,
he. said by the recent agreement be-
tween the packers and the department
of Justice in settlement of antitrust
proceedings.
Competition Weakening.
To this testimony the commissioner
added critical analysis of statements
and motives of witnesses who have
the prolonged hearings of the agricul-
ture committee on the Kenyon and
Kendrick bills last year, concluding
the assertion that in the meat indus
try competition is continuing to less
en- and monopoly to increase even
though we exhaust the powers of pres
ent federal laws intended to restrain
it,
The first instance the commissioner
said, of the frame-up, had resulted in

clerk for the trade commission, in
raids directed last week at Chicago
by the department of justice. II. j. {.

Johann Ohsol, another employe OF
the commission Colver said, was ar
rested in Washington this week, while
on a visit to S. Nuorteva, having been
pointed out to police officers as Mar
tens, who is being sought by the Sc
cret service. Reading an alleged
claim of Nuorteva and Martens that
purchases of large meat supplies from
an unnamed Chicago packer had been
arranged with the object of getting it
into Russia through the allied block
y AIDE, Colver said he considered this
connection between meat packers and
soviet representatives Significant" as
it concerned Ohsols arrest, especially
since the latter had been taken into
custody when he came to see Nuor-
teva in answer to a specific telephone
call
