ONE WAY TO OVERCOME
PREJUDICE.

We reprint in another column
an editorial taken from the
Union Banner of Fort Worth,
Texas, one of the most influen-
tial labor papers in the State of
Texas. This paper devotes sew
eral columns to the publication
of the labor platform adopted
by the Conference of American
Rabbits, and then comments on
it.
We feel that in enlisting the
support of editors and journal
lists who represent the labor and
farmer world, Mr.. Henry
Gernsbacher, who has done this,
is not only on the right track,
but is doing the very thing that
ought to be done by others who
are able to do so. As Chairman
of the Fort Worth branch of
the Authorization League, he
has sent out a number of docu-

ments and pieces of literature
dealing with the question that
is being agitated by the premier
Hebromaniac, Henry Ford. All
of this is, of course, done in
conjunction with The Anti-De-
famation League of Chicago,
but the Chicago office cannot
possibly cover all the ground
and we suggest that our readers
in the smaller towns that have
no branches of the League form
themselves into committees and
do what they can to correct the
untruths of the anti-Semites.
Mr.. Gernsbacher has pointed
out the way.
Enlist the aid and the COOP
Grafton of your local papers, the
local ministers and leaders of
thought. We shall be glad 10
render any assistance that we
can give.

piece of ignorance-if intended
to be serious.
We see no sense in making
the Jews who DO follow styles
sometimes too quickly and
too devotedly-the scapegoat.
We see no reason in this at
tempt to Great prejudice by call
ing them names; we see no rea-
son for selecting them-as if
there were no others who wore
loud shirts, pinch-back coats and
Velour hats.
In another place, the writer
of a review in this same paper
speaks of Welcome Strangers"
speaks Jerusalem Conquers".
For the information of the editor
of Judge" we say that the term
is not well chosen. 1t smacks too
much of Junkerism, Fordism
and Wisconsin. There is hid
den poisonism in that expression
the poison of anti-Jewish
propaganda. The publishers of
Judge" do not need our sug-
gestions-and probably will not
heed them. But we cannot for
bear to say that if these untow-
ard references to Jews are the
work of understrappers, it would
be well to "squelch" them be-
fore they have done the harm
that they can do later, not only
to the Jews, but to the periodical
itself. No anti-Semitic journal
has outlived the Jew-and none
will.
We have been shocked at
Judges" outburst. We have
been rather a consistent ad-
mirer of the paper-but we have
not yet learned to turn the left
cheek to him who smites us on
the right one.

WE AGREE, 1T CAN BE DONE

We are reprinting herewith
an editorial from the Jewish
Daily News of New York. The
matter touches something that
we have discussed before, and
we are glad to see others inter-
ested in it. What can be done
in New York and other places,
can be done in Fort Worth, if
the WILL is only there:

entered the New York School of
Forestry at Syracuse Univer-
sity. Being DESTROYS of contin-
uing the observance of his re-
ligion as he had been always ac-
customed, young Lazdon wrote
to Chancellor Day asking that
he be exempted from attending
classes on Shabbos and the Jew
ish Holidays. Not only was his
request granted, but the Dean
of the School of Forestry, Prof.
F. F. Moon, gave the same con-
cession to all other Jewish stu
dents. Furthermore, in a cir
cular issued by him, the Dean
says:
Lastly, We have stressed the
point that they should not over
look their religious life. The
College of Forestry, as a state
institution, holds no chapel. We
have urged, however, that each
man become connected with the
church Of his own faith and that
he attend it regularly and ally
himself with its activities. We
plan to send to the various
churches a list of men who have
signified their preference for
that faith. Thus the men will
be personally invited by the

SHALL JUDGE" NOT BE
JUST?
JUST?

Not many months ago the
comic paper "Life" changed
hands, and with the fortunate
change, there went into oblivion
one of the vilest and most anti
Semitic journals that America
had. The present owners of
that periodical set out upon a
policy Of fairness and justice
which has enhanced the stand
ing of Life to a degree never
reached while in the hands of
the previous owners. Life" to
paraphrase a bon mot Of Gang
Wills, "has been worth while"
ever since it passed into the
hands of Dana Gibson and his
associates.
Now comes Judge" and gives
indication of forgetting it's for
mer good recorder perhaps it
was only an oversight. In the
issue of October 9th, the edit
orial page deals with good dress
ers. The editorial speaks of
the fact that New Workers used
to be the best dressers in the
world. Now they are freaks,
wearing grotesque and uncom-I
Portable clothes. And who is toI
blame for this? Read the AMI
swer in the words of the|
Judge" editorial:
The substitution of the go-as-
you-please way of dressing for
the more rigid methods which
gave New York its former repu-
tation would not be lamentable
if the change made for greater
comfort and picturesqueness.
Instead we have a riot of the
grotesque, the even more I'M
comfortable. The fashion-produ-
GERS seem to have consulted
mainly the Oriental fancy of our
young Jewish princes with their
fondness for velours hats, pas
sionately colored silk shirts,
pinched-in-waists, belted backs
and generously distributed
patch-pockets. They are fit COM
panions for the equally absurd
females of their kind, short
skirted and fur-colared.
Do the dead come back? For
their own sakes it is to be hoped
that the dead who used to know
Fifth Avenue when it was trav-
eled by really well-dressed Am
orleans do not have to come
back and look upon the freaks
who crowd it now.
We are utterly surprised at
this absurd suggestion. When
one reads the anti-Semitic lit
erature, one sometimes feels
that there is some ground for
one accusation or another. But
The Jewish monitor. (Fort Worth-Dallas, Tex.) 191?-1921, 1920-10-15

discarded the use OF the silk hat
and the full-dress coat, is beyond
us. What effect the dress of
Jewish boys can have on the
society circles of the rich New
Workers we cannot understand.
And just why Jewish boys
should be said to wear more We
lours and louder silk shirts than
others, is not plain, unless a de-
liberate attempt to prejudice is
intended.
What a lot of rot! As if the
fancy silks that were turned in
to shirts were sold only to Jews;
as if the styles of the millions
Of hats turned out but the hat
manufacturers were dictated by
the young men who wear them!
In these days of anti-Semitic
contagion there is no depth to
which men will not sink, to be-
come poisoned by it.
Is it an memorable law of ma
ture that only silk hats and full
dress suits make a well-dressed
man? Does the Jewish prince"
dictate the styles of clothes, hats
land shirts, or does the Jewish
lprince buy the styles that his
;lothier shows him? And where
ire these styles determined? In
he associations and meeting
places of the young men and
women, or in the councils of
the artists and designers of
mems and women's clothes? Or
perhaps is it the inference that
the "fashion-producers" have all
become judaized, and have been
bought by the Jews to turn out
vicious anti-American styles,
calculated just to offend the
staid and homely tastes of the
few "well-dressed New York
ers" of the former generation.
And by the way, who are these
short-skirted and fur-collared
females our editor speaks about?
Are they the daughters of the
recently arrived immigrants
whose means of sustenance are
so limited that it takes every
cent they can make to keep body
and soul together, or are they
daughters of the well-to-do
Americans, whose greatest prob
lens are those of fashion and
style? Do the working girls see
the styles, or do the high-priced
modistes-those who cater to
the four hundred, and to the
thousands who want to be the
four hundred-set the styles :?
We wonder who wrote that ed
itorial in Judge-it is the most
absurd thing we have ever read
in the journal-if intended as a
