Balfour document. The growing
hostility of the Arabs, which natur-
ally has the sympathy of the rest
of the Muhammedan world, the un-
concealed opposition of large Sec
ton of the Christian church, Eng
lands troubles in other parts of the
empire, would naturally make Eng
land hesitate to take further steps
in conformity with the Zionist pro-
gram. Governments naturally con-
suit self-interest first. With the best
of intentions, we feared, England
might still be forced to disappoint
the Zionists in their revived hopes.
We were not alone in such mis-
givings. Israel Zangwill has repeat
eddy given voice to them, and has
taken the British Government very
harshly to task for what he consid-
cred was a breach of promise, or
still worse, a trifling and dallying
with a peoples hopes. The Anglo
Jewish press has been equally out
spoken in it's criticism of the Brit
ish Government and particularly of
Weizman and the other leaders of
the World Zionist Organization for
Government down to it's promise.
We are glad to know that Great
Britain is determined to stand by
her guns, and that all the enemies
of the Zionists and the Jews cannot
swerve her from her purpose. The
reiteration of the Balfour Declara-
ton at the Congress was worth the

CIRCUIT RABBIS

The question of supplying all
Jewish congregations with rab-
bis is still pressing for an an
swer. The problem is still un-
solved. The problem is how to
find rabbis for all the Jewish COM
munities of the land.
To begin with, there are not
enough rabbis to go around.
Jewish communities are spring.
ing up or are being organized
faster than the theological semi
naries and other schools can send
out men qualified for the rabbini-
cal office. In fact the supply of
rabbinical candidates nowadays
is barely enough to fill the vacan-.
cies left by rabbis who die, and
rabbis who resign and leave the
ministry. And since, according
to orthodox political economy, ali
things in this world are governed
by the law of supply and demand,
rabbis, even the youngest of
them, are nowadays unwilling to

EDl TOR lAL
A SIGNIFICANT MOMENT AT
CARLSBAD

Among all the transactions at the
Carlsbad Zionist Congress, among
the heated discussions, the wrang-
lings of the factions, the attacks and
defenses, the waves of enthusiasm
and excitement, there was one sig
nificant moment at one of the early
sessions to which, we believe, read
ers of the reports have not attached
sufficient Importance. It was when
the British Ambassador to Czecho-
Slovakia delivered the official greet
ings Of the British Government to
the Congress, reread the text of the
Balfour Declaration, and stated that
following official instructions, it was
the wish of the British Government
that the Zionist leaders rebuild Pal
estine on the basis of that declara-
ration. 1t was the wish of the gov
eminent that the Balfour Declara-
ton be materialized to it's fullest
extent.
In our humble opinion, if the
Carlsbad Congress had not accom-
plished anything else but that, name
ly, the elicitation of this renewed
public official declaration of the
British Governments support of
Zionism, and it's readiness to stand
by the Balfour Declaration, the Con-
gress would have been worth while.
We must confess that we have
lately had some misgivings as to
England's attitude. Things have
happened in Palestine itself to give
rise to them. We have lately been
realizing more and more the ire
mendous difficulties that are in
Britain's way of living up to the
The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1921-09-16
HOW TO HEAL THE BREACH

According to reports from Carls-
bad a special commission has been
appointed to come to this country to
bring about reconciliation be-
tween the two Zionist factions, one
of which, headed by the former lead
ers of American Zionism, has prac-
tically, though we hope only tenn
porarily, seeded from the organiza-
ton.
No matter who the personnel of
the special commission may be, we
wonder what charm it will bring, or
what specific, to remedy the rather
painful situation here. We are con-
WINGED that Weizman's coming, glad
as American Zionists were to see
and to greet the world Zionist leader,
did not heal, but, on the contrary,
widened the breach.
There is just one way to unite the
factions and to strengthen the Ameri-
can organization, and that is for
American Zionism to think and work
in conformity with American ideas,
American principles and American
methods. European, and especially
East-European ideas, programs, and
methods will never appeal to Ameri-
can Jews. In spite of all that our
enemies and critics say, Jews the
world over do not think as a unit,
and do not act as a unit. We wish
they might and would. But it is
futile wish. Weizman and Brandeis,
Sokolow and Mack, Schmarya Levin
and Stephen Wise do not subscribe
to the same Zionist philosophy, and
do not approve of the same methods.
OF course there are many Jews in
America who still look at the world
and all things in it through Russo
Jewish or POlish-Jewish glasses.
But they cannot be the leaders nor
the main workers in the circles of
American Zionism. The leadership
of American Zionism must be re-
stored to the tried leaders of the
past, who are faithful Zionists but
imbued with the American spirit at
the same time, and who look at and
judge things from the American
point of view.
The new soi-disant leaders will
probably be opposed to it, will fight
it with might and main. For after
all is said, the fight has not been
without it's personal element, and
has been, among other things, a
fight for leadership and control.
But the rank and file will speedily
return to their allegiance to the lead
ership of a Brandeis and his asso-
ciates. American Zionism must be
guided and administered by Zion

THE IMMEDIATE PROBLEM
S. N. D.

It will be agreed that the i'm
mediate and most urgent Jewish
problem at this time is the one af-
fecting Jewish migration. Apart
from the workings of the per cent
immigration law, it has become evil
dent that not all the Jews who be-
cause of intolerable conditions can
not, must not remain in the coun-
tries in which they now live, can
come to America. What is to be
done for them. Are we to let them
continue to be massacred? Are we
to stand idly by and see them go
down to ruin and to destruction, or
are we to do what American Jewry
always has done:-namely, stretch
the hands across the seas and lift
our prosecuted brothers and sisters
out of destruction.
The Hebrew Sheltering and I'm
migrant Aid Society of America
makes this point absolutely clear in
an appeal which that organization
has issued for the creation of a
Million Dollar Emergency Fund.
The issue is now before American
Jewry. 1t is not merely the ques-
ton of meeting the Jewish immi-
grants who come here-and just as
many of our brothers and sisters
from other shores come here as did
in normal years prior to the war.
The problem is much more urgent
and of greater consequence New
outlets must be found, new immi-
grafton centers must be secured for
thousands upon thousands of Jews
who by reason of persecution and

Hebrew Sheltering and Immigrant
Aid Society of America since 1920
has had a Commission abroad and
is in full possession of the facts re-
garding the situation. It has already
made Investigations regarding GER
tain countries and is prepared to
make studies in other lands, so that
the problem of the Jewish wanderer
may in a measure be solved.
We completely and unequivocally
endorse the appeal of the Hebrew
Sheltering and Immigrant Aid So
ciety of America. It's record and
achievement in the past are surety
for the successful completion of
whatever it will undertake. The
Society-HIAS- it is called, has
deserved we'll of American Jewry
but it is not appealing for ITSELF It
is making the cry for the Jewish
Wanderer. Dare American Jewry
turn deaf ear?
We ask our readers to make their
contribution to the One Million Dol
lar Emergency Fund without delay.
