IS z|0N|SM A STUPENDOUS FALLACY?
F. RUTHERFORD.
Brooklyn >& 10 51 Date Of
August
BY J. F. RUTHERFORD.

for all the U2which thou seest, to
thee will give it, and to thy seed
for ever. And ! will make thy seed
as the dust Of the earth; so that II a
man can number the dust Of the earth,
then shall they seed also be number
ed. Arise, walk through the land in
the length Of 1t and in the breadth Of
it; for will give 1t unto thee."-Gen-
esis l3:l4-17.
Again Jehovah said to Abraham:
~ will give unto thee, and to thy seed
after thee, the land wherein thou art
a stranger, all the land Of Canaan,
for an everlasting possession; and I
will be their God."-Genesis 17:s.
II will be observed that these prom
ises relate to the land Of Palestine.
Nothing is said about establishing Je-
hovah's kingdom in the "soul Of
man." as Mr.. Morganthau would
have US construe these statements.
While II Is true that Abraham dwelt
for a time in the land Of Canaan, the
land was held by other people and he
did not own foot Of it, except that
which he bought near Hebron in
which to bury his dead.
Not only did Jehovah make the
promise, but He bound II with His
oath. Genesis 22:l6-ls). II we have
faith in God, then we must believe
that his promise will be carried out;
for through the prophet He says: u
am the Lord; I change not;" and
again: "My word that goeth forth
out Of my mouth shall not return un-
to me void, but II shall accomplish
that which I please and II shall pros
per in the thing whereto sent it,
Malachi 3:6; Isaiah 55:ll.
Jehovah renewed these promises
from time TO time to Abraham's de.
cendants: viz: Isaac, Jacob, the twelve
patriarchs, and their offspring. He
organized Israel into n nation and
dealt with that nation for centuries,
to the exclusion Of all other nations.
While God at all times had some true
and faithful prophets and witnesses
in the earth, there arose in Israel
many false prophets and 'wise men,"
who led the people in the wrong wa,.
Jehovah cent to them jeremiah His
prophet, who said unto the Israel
ties, speaking as for Jehovah: 81 have
heard what the prophets said, that
prophesy lies in my name, saying, ]
have dreamed, have dreamed. How
long shall this be in the heart Of the
prophets that prophesy liesi yea,
they are prophets Of the deceit Of
their own heart; which think to cause

my people to forget my name by their
dreams which they tell every man to
his neighbor, as their fathers have
forgotten my name for Baal.' (Jere-
miah 23:25-27). Some Of the modern
wise men" would make the Jews now
believe that they have found their
ideals in the various nations Of the
earth-those nations which even h
blind man can see are tottering on
their last legs.
Because the Jews as a nation at
times followed after false teachers
and wandered away from Jehovah, God
through His prophet Amos, said to
them: Hear this word that the Lord
hath spoken against you, o children
Of Israel, against the whole family
which l brought up from the land Of
Egypt, saying, You only have l
known Of all the families Of the earth;
therefore will punish you for all
your iniquities. Amos 81, 2.
Jehovah has manifested His favor
to the Jews who reposed confidence
in His promises; and It may be ex-
pected that He will continue to do so.
Such have looked forward to a time
when they should be established as q
people and a nation under n wise and
just Ruler, their Messiah, who would
deliver them, and through then.
bring blessings to others.
Wicked rulers Of Israel having pre-
dominated, a climax was reached dur
ing the reign Of Zedekiah, to whom
Jehovah said: "And thou, profane,
wicked prince Of Israel, whose day Is
come, when iniquity shall have an
end, thus saith the Lord, God: Re-
move the diadem, and take off the
crown; this shall not be the same.
Exalt him that is low, and abase him
that is high. I will overtun, over
turn, overturn, IL; and II shall be no
more until he come whose right Il
is; and | will give It (to) him." (Eze'
kiel 2l:25-27). Here Is q positive
statement that God would no longer
permit them to have an organize ma
ton in the earth as His special peo>
pie until time future, ut which time
He would raise up one whose right Il
is to rule and who will rule and bless
the people. From then until now the
faithful Jews have been looking for
ward to the coming Of that mighty
One Of whom Moses wrote: The
Lord thy God will raise up unto thee
a Prophet from the midst Of thee, OF
thy brethren, like unto me; unto me;
unto him ye shall hearken.'-Deuter-
onomy 1915.
At the same time Jehovah permit
ted the Gentle nations Of earth to
establish a universal kingom under
Nebuchadnezzar; and through the
Prophet Daniel Jehovah outlined the
history Of the world-the rise and
fall Of empires-until the "time o
the end" Of those kingdoms. The Gen.
tile dominion was to continue for a
Continued Next Week..

parentage. Abraham was the father
Of the Jews, the father Of the faith
full. A man to be a Jew must have the
faith Of Abraham. He must have an
abiding confidence and faith in the
promises that God made to Abraham
and to his offspring. II ever Mr.. Nor
ganthau was Jew, he shows he has
ceased to be one.
Quoting him: "They (Jews) may
continue, il they will, a practice Of
our common faith which invites mar
tyrdom, and which makes the contin-
uance Of oppression a certainty.

one Of great body Of American Jews
Of like mind) -. We have fought
our way through to liberty, equality,
and fraternity. We have found rest
for our souls In other words, having
become weary Of Jehovah's program
for the ultimate blessing Of the Jews
as a people, Mr.. Morgenthau has
withdrawn from Gods way and ac-
cepted another and to him a better
way. Upon his own statement, there
fore, he is disqualified to speak with
authority for orthodox Jews.
Below are set forth some pertin-
ent statements which Jehovah made
through His inspired prophets con.
cerning the regathering and rebuild
ing Of the Jews In Palestine. Let the
reader judge for himself whether he
desires to accept the wisdom Of those
men who spoke as the mouthpieces OF
God, or whether he desires to be
guided by the superior (l) wisdom
Of Mr.. Morganthau and "the wonder
rabbi" Probably these modern "wise
men, possess a superior vision to Je-
hovah's prophets; and II so, II is a
pity they had not lived in the eari,
days Of the Jewish people and thus
saved that people n great deal Of un-
necessary inconvenience and suffer
ing.
Jehovah's Promises.
Gods original statements to Abra-
ham (Abram)) was: "Get thee out OF
thy country. and from thy kindred,
and from thy fathers house, unto q
land that will show thee; and l will
bless thee, and make thy name great;
and thou shalt be blessing."-Gene-
sis 1912.

Canaan tPalestine); and while there,

Mr.. Henry Morgenthau, in an ar.
ticle recently contributed to Worlds
Work, says: "Zionism is the most
stupendous fallacy in Jewish history.
l assert that It is wrong in principle,
and impossible of realization; that 1t
is unsound in its economics, fanatast-
ical in its politics, and sterile in its
spiritual ideals"
These statements are rather sweep
ing and extravagant. The real ques-
tion at issue is, Shall we accept Mr..
Morgenthau as final authority? or
shall we accept the inspired testimony
of the prophets Of Jehovah who spoke
with authority? Probably Mr.. Nor
ganthau is wiser than those prophets.
/ sincerely doubt it, however.
Many persons for time will be in
fluenced by Mr.. Morganthau's appar.
emily strong argument; but the evil
dence dispassionately examined will
prove that Mr.. Morganthau is wrong,
his argument unsound, and that he Is
without faith in the promises made
to his forefathers. That his readers
might be impressed with his compe-
tency and the value Of his testimony,
Mr.. Morgenthau opens his statement
by emphasizing the fact that he is
an American Of fifty-fve years resi-
dence, a director Of the Educational
Alliance and of Mt. Sinai Hospital,
President Of the Bronx House and the
Free Synagogue, has travelled On
speaking tours throughout America
and Canada, is thoroughly familiar
with the American Jews, was Ameri-
can ambassador to Turkey, came or
ficially in contact with Jews from all
parts Of the Near East, was head Of
President Wilson's commission sen.
to investigate the pogroms in Poland,
etc, and then says: 81 speak as q
Jew"
The Literary Digest for July 30,
1921, reproduces q photograph Of Mr..
Morgenthau and DR.. Alter, described
as "the wonder rabbi and the "most
distinguished Jewish leader in Po-
land" who agrees with Mr.. Morgen-
thau that there Is no hope in Zion,
ism.
OF course rabbi who does not be-
lieve his own Scripture is indeed n
wonder. But the student Of divine
prophecy, in view Of the extravagant
statements Of such wise men, cannot
avoid recalling the words Of Gods
holy prophet written concerning this
very time: "The wisdom Of their wise
men shall perish, and the understand
ing Of their prudent men shall be
hid."-Isaaiah 29:14.
l will not take issue with Mr.. Nor
ganthau as to his distinguished SER
vice as an American citizen; but am
compelled to call In question his as
sertion that he is Jew, in the true
sense Of the word.
Not every man Is Jew because he
is one outwardly-born Of Jewish

3 SHIPS IN TO-DAY WITH

Almost on the stroke Of midnight the
steamers Megalli Hellas and Calabria
from Piraeus, Greece. and Palermo, Italy
respectively. came within the three mile
limit Of the United States coast. They
had been held outside since Friday
night because they carried immigrants
who. under tse new immigration law
would not be permitted to land In July.
as the quota for their nationality had
been filled for the month.
The Megalli Hellas carried 1870 Amer
lean citizens az passengers and the
Calabria had ten on board. They had
sent urgent messages ashore asking that
they may be taken off the ship, but they
were forced TO remain aboard until
August showed UP on the calendar.
Another ship sighted off Fire Island
last night was the Cedric from Liver
pool and Queenstown. ireland. She also
carried a number of immigrants who
would not be permitted to land in July,
and was believed to have delayed her
arrival by slow sailing.

Detective Charles r. Tighe. who was
suspended by Commissioner Enright for
blackjacking more than forty persons
on West Forty third street last Thurs
day, was arraigned yesterday in West
Side court on charges of felonious
assault, attempted felonious assault and
simple assault. He pleaded not guilty
and was released on $4,000 bail for
examination Wednesday.
Three detectives from Inspector
Boettler's staff stood shoulder to shoul-
der between Tighe and the reporters
table while the case was being heard
Tighe posed for picture and made a
statement in which he said There are
two sides to every story"
Some women may have been roughly
handled in the excitement" he said. Il
was trying to recapture several prisoners
who had escaped from the back room of
Coen's saloon, where we had confined
them until the patrol wagon arrived"
The complaints were made by Mrs.
Emma Lennon of SCI West Fiftieth

struck her on the back with his black
jack; Mrs. Ella Fitzgerald of 329 West

Tighe seized her on the sidewalk,
dragged her into the saloon and kicked
her In the thigh, and Mrs. Catherine
Goete Of 345 West Forty-third street,
who said Tighe raised his blackjack ia
strike her. but hit her with his fist in
stead.
The detective said the newspapers
have failed to publish "his side of the
case. He explained that he and Detec-
tive Kaufman had been watching Coens
saloon for gambling violations. and
finally went inside and arrested several
men who they observed were breaking
the law. While he was telephoning. he
said. some of the prisoners got away. and
it was when he tried to bring them back
that the women were roughly handled.
II was not drunk or crazed with the
heat, as the papers stated" Tighe con-
cludcd.
The detective promised Magistrate
Simpson to appear tomorrow in answer
to summons that has been issued at
the request of the Society for the Pre-
