The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1921-02-04

Then came the great World War
setting new date in the calendar of
the world, sort of red mark, so that
instead of saying "Anno Domini" so
and SO, have been accustomed to set
everything to date from 1914. Just
after the United States went into the
war, / was in Boston one day and a
man whispered to me that America
was in danger because this war was
part of a Jewish conspiracy to de-
stroy all civilized or Christian gov
ernments and to establish world
government of Jews in their stead, to
a Jewish Sanhedrin as the governing
scripts were being shown around sur
reptitiously. I should have liked to
have seen one of the manuscripts,
but I was not close enough to the
pro-German sources of the propa-
ganda in this country. Three other
times, think, I heard Of these type
written charges against Jews, and
then it happened that l was in Paris
in July, 1913, and there l was given
a very clear account of these type

Now, it chanced that I was told of

was with M. Clemenceau when word
came of the turn of the tide of battle
at Chateau Thierry. I went to
Chateau Thierry, and saw on my
way there a long line of ambulances
coming back from the battlefield to
the front. And then later I went to
the hospitals and saw the men
brought in, talked with the men about
their wounds and their suffering, and
I can say to you, as have said from
many platforms in this country, there
were Jews and there were Gentiles,
there were white men and there were
black men, there were Americans
whose ancestry was as diversified as
it is possible to find in this country,
but there was no difference in the
quality of their Americanism. There
was no difference in the quality OF
the Americanism of the young Jewish
bow from the east side and the Amer
icanism of the man who came from
New England and whose ancestors
maybe participated in the great war

of the American Revolution. But
mind you, the morning following that
event l was told the story of some
Jewish secret conspiratory organiza-
tion whose plans had been stolen and
were now to be made manifest to the
non-Jewish world.
the Germans with their customary
libraries of the world to make sure
should miss nothing, for, Of course,
there was nothing new in the charge
that Jews were conspiring against
all the rest Of mankind. Heavens! if
Mr.. Henry Ford has only just learned
about this conspiracy-having fin
ished the day before yesterday the
lesson in which he learned about
Benedict Arnold and what he meant
in America-if Mr.. Ford has only just
learned about this conspiracy, all the
rest of us are not quite as ignorant
as that. We know that the Protest
ant Reformation was charged at the
time against the Jews, notwithstand-
ing Luther's own attitude toward the
Jews, by the way. We know that the
French Revolution was alleged to be
part Of Jewish conspiracy, and
Free Mason conspiracy, too. We know
that the American Revolution was
charged to be part of Jewish con-
spiracy, and that the revolution which
made Parliamentary government in
England possible was charged like
wise to the Jew. And we know that
the Mazzini movement for the uni
fcation and liberation of Italy, was
charged against the Jews, and that
the Chartist and the Trade Union
movements of Great Britain were like
wise alleged to be part of Jewish
conspiracy, and that the German
movement of '48 for larger Constitu-
tional freedom was alleged to be part
of Jewish conspiracy. It seemed to
me very likely that some German
scholar, modified and ordered to find
arguments that would terrify the
poor American, had gone into the
libraries and dragged out from the
contemporary literature of the French
Revolution charges against Jews and
Gentiles. At all events, it was quite
clear to my mind that it was a part
of the pro- German effort to sap the
morale of this people, and you may
may be to establish it as a proven

thing as a lawyer would like to es-
tablish his case in court, nobody who
was on the side of the Allies heart
and soul participated in the dissem-
ination of that information at that
time.
When I went to London recently
found that people there were very
be printed and published version of
these same typewriter documents
the alleged Protocols of the Elders
of Zion, of which we have been hear
ing so much. For more than a CEN
tury there have been legends and
rumors and insinuations about some
organization called "Elders of Zion"
or "Wise. Men of Zion" or "Men of
Wisdom Of Zion", but it is a remark
able fact that although in that time
dynasties have fallen and Republics
been raised in their stead although
Empires have been reared and again
have been destroyed, although revolu-
tions have occurred in almost every
part of the Old World so that all the
archives of the world have again and
again changed hands, nowhere in all
that time, despite the fact that the
archives have changed hands again
and again, has anybody yet found a
scrap of evidence that would stand a
moments investigation, that would
stand upon it's own feet before any
jury in this country, proving that
there was, that there is, that there
ever has been, any kind of secret con-
spiratory organization, whether "Eld-
ers of Zion," "Men of Wisdom Of
Zion," "Wise Men of Zion," of what
ever other name may be alleged to
belong to this alleged organization.
Take, for example, the case Of Rus
sia; no government in the world ever
devoted itself with such passion or
with such efficiency to the persecution
of Jews as Jews; no government ever
used it's secret agencies to spy upon,
to ferret out the secrets of a people
it feared as did that government. It's
archives teemed with all kinds Of
brochures upon all sorts of subjects
relating to it's Jewish population and
to the population of the world, but
when that great Empire broke, when
Czarism fell and it's archives fell into
the hands of new sort and kind of
people, those archives revealed not
enc scintilla of evidence gathered
through the whole Of the nineteenth
century in support of that charge.
Germany used her great and marvel
GUS power not only to oppress Jews
in her particular way, but to build
up a mighty system of information
concerning the Jews, their works and
their ways. Yet when the Hohenzol-
lerns had to flee and those archives
came into the hands of the people

SEABOARD ADVERTISES
FOR RAILWAY MEN.

CORDELE, Oct. 27.-In a large
advertisement in the local paper the
Seabcard Air Line railroad is asking
for applications from men who will
work as engineers, firemen, cohduc-
tors, trainmen, yardmen and tele-
graph operators to fill the places of
the men who are expected to walk

on the great strike.

Fine Barn, Tractor, Truck,
Horses And Other Property
Burned

State Fire Marshal Joiner will be
asked today to come to Americas to
investigate the fire which early
Thursday morning destroyed the fine
barn, implements, feed and stocl, on
the farm Of C. NJ Hale, one mile
north of Sumter City, entailing a
loss of $1,000 or $4,000. The fire
is believed to have been of incen-
diary origin, and it is said there are
persons under suspicion.
The fire was discovered at about 3
o'clock when it awakened the over
seer. 1t had started on the end Of
the barn farthest from the house, and
was spreading very rapidly. The
overseer attempted to get to the
doors to release two fine gray horses
which were qquartered there, but
the heat was so intense he could not
approach it, and the horses perished
