jewish PEOPLE OF
EUROPE VICTIMS OF
DISCRIMINATION
(Hy The Associated Negro Press)

/ Lhlnk race discrimination and hatred
are confined among the colored people
of America, have something to learn
from the terrible campaign of hate
against the Jewish people of Europe
During the war Jews were needed,
and czarist Russia was the only coun-
try where they were martyrized while
called to the colors In western.
Europe, as in Germany, they We're
molested. Jews of a certain standing
in the community proclaimed their
patriotic devotion and expressed feel
ings whose chauvinism could be com
pared to that of the most rabid re-
actionaries.
France has to go far to find more
reactionary forces than the Jews
Mandel and Ignace Mandel, Clemen-
ceau's right hand man, and Ignace,
the minister of justice, who sent so
many defenders of liberty to suffer in
prison.
In Isreal, as the saying goes, there
are merchants and prophets. Among
! the latter were the men and women
of Russian, German and Hungarian
revolutions, like Trotsky, Kameneff,
Litvinoff, Fritz Adler, Rose Luxem-
bourg, Radek, Hugo Haase, Bella Kun,
Kurt Eisner. And among the Jews in
all the twenty nations where they
abound persists that revolutionary
yeast which rises from the Jews per-
sistent longing and passion for the
state of justice described by the
prophets of the Bible.
Now that the war is no longer
needed there is naturally hatred of
the race. In the country most be-
loved by NJ. Mandel and Clemenceau,
Hungary, the logical conclusion has
been drawn.
The British labor movement is in
spired by the hidden Jewish hand"
There are many descendants of Polish
Jews among the Scotch coal miners.
The wife of Che British labor leader,
Williams, is a Jewess. Thomas is the
damned soul' of Abraham.
When anti-Semitism merely takes
the form of talk there is not much
harm done. But sometimes such
words start terrible clashes, such as
that of Tunis a few weeks ago, when
the Jewish quarter was invaded by
drunken tirailleurs, who destroyed
everything they could lay their hands
on, slaughtering Jewish men and tear
ing the clothes off Jewish girls and
invalids and horsewhipping them in
public.
So great is the anti-Semitic feeling
in the army today that the man who
denounced the officers guilty of such
atrocities is now l&nguishing in Jail
accused of "outrages against the
army"
And yet some people would have US
believe war is a moralizing force!
Jews have been deprived of the vote.
Considered as strangers" they are
deprived of all rights, and a faithful
follower of Admiral Horthy adds that
to be really logical they should not
only be deprived of all rights but mas
sacred and utterly eradicated.
The frightful pogroms in Poland,
beloved child of our government, are
an old story The drunken soldiery
of Pilsudski is guilty of abdominable
excesses every time it enters a new
zone" massacring and assaulting
women, children and old men. But
/ even in those parts of Poland where
there is no fighting, the lot of the Jew
is terrible one.
Pogroms are openly perpetrated and
every day frightful atrocities are COM
mitted against people whose only
crime is that they are not of the
Aryan race.
In France, too, an anti-Semitic cam
paign is being waged Drumont be-
lieved that every Jew is damned,
never having been redeemed, and
should therefore be thrown beyond
the pale of Christian society. Our
modern nationalities divide Jews into
two classes, good jews who con-
tribute lavishly to nationalist charit-
able enterprises, and the others.
4 According to our nationalists, all
the evils of the present time may be
ascribed to Jewish influence. Jews,
they claim, are the cause of the Rus
sian, German and Hungarian revolu-
tions. They are also the instigators
of the unrest in England.
