A Jcwcss Brought RidicuIe

WhOm Henry FOrd was one ana l an
other"
A JcYcss Brought RidicuIe
The point to it all was that the in
fluence behind the peace ship" that
brought ridicule and humiliation on
Ford and the reputable persons in
his party. was a Hungarian Jewess.
Madame Rosika Schwimmer. "And
venture the guess" said DIR. Aked,
that the memory of this Jewess
ranking in his heart is behind Ford's
ludicrous attack on the Jewish people.
You may say that a philosophical
man does not lmpute to a whole peo-
pie the faults of one of its members.
But 1 never said Henry Ford was a
philosopher. We all have known
people who have had an unfortunate
experience with a Christian Scientist
and forever after hated Christian Sci
ence. or a Roman Catholic and took
| 1t out on Romanism. So when you
Jews are annoyed by Ford's attacks
| just smile and say, It's only Henry
Ford who is still smarting from the
| humiliation brought upon him by a
Jewess.'"
DR.. Aked's subject was Henry Ford
and the Old World Hatred of the
Jew" Rabbi II. II. Mayer assisted in
the services, and large number of
the Jewish congregation were present
by invitation. The minister began by
asserting he had not felt it necessary
to dignity Fords charges by answer
ing them. 1t was only. he said, when
he found the Jewish community OF
Kansas City outraged and insulted by
them that he as a Christian minister
felt il appropriate to make a public
dlsavowal on the part OF a Christian
congregation.
The Ford propaganda he described
as a revival Of attacks made last year
by a reactionary British newspaper,
the London Morning Post.
"In the silly season." DR.. Aked said.
the Morning Post began printing a
series of monstrous attacks charging
that the Jews in collusion with the
Free Masons, were in a gigantic con-
spiracy to overthrow all governments
and set up a world government con-
trolled by Jews. The thing was too
preposterous for serious attention. 1t
seems to have been founded on an
p absurd book printed in Russia in
1903 called The Great and the Little
, which in a revised edition of 1905,
; purported TO give details of such a
= Jewish and Masonic plot.
FORD Backed Publication OF Plot
t Later the Morning Post articles
/ and a translation Of this Russian book
e were printed in book form in this
country. Ford in some way got hold
r Of them and has been giving the
!, backing Of his name and fortune Il
Z their publication in his newspaper"
I The charges, DIR. Aked said. wer'
= not worth refuting. SO he devoted
?. himself to suggesting what might b'
I Ford's motive in making this attack
% This led him to the story Of the peac,
70 ship.

/. Francisco on Saturday morning,
