THE CAUSE OF )EW-BAITING


Editors Note.-A discussion of the
subject expressed in the above head
ing needs no excuse and no explana-
ton. It is timely and of interest to
Jews and non-Jews alike. Having
committed our own inadequate
thoughts on the subject to writing,
we wished to obtain the opinions of
leading non-Jewish citizens of our
state on the question. The letter we
addressed to them, and the replies we
received, will follow this article, thus
constituting an interesting symposium
on the subject.

life in malevolent spirits, fetiches,
witches, spells and other creations of
the superstitious mind. If, therefore,

RESULTS OF THE WAR

RESULTS OF THE WAR
The present rising tide of Jew
batting that is so noticeable through
out Christendom, even in lands where
it was least expected, such as Eng
land and the U. S. of America, can
be easily enough accounted for.
Humanity has just gone through a
most catastrophe war that has let
loose the widest, most destructive
passions of man. During the war
vindictiveness and hatred, vengeance
and punishment, cruelty and inhuman-
ity took the place of the social vir-
tues and moralities, both in preaching
and in practice. The wild beast thus
let loose is not so easily recaptured
and subdued. 1t is easier and more
in conformity with the basic instincts
of man to learn the lesson of hate and
to practice it, than to learn and to
follow the lesson of love. This may
be seen in many other manifestations
of social iniquity, the increase OF
crime, the assertiveness OF the mob
spirit, the intolerance and despotism
of those in power, all as an aftermath
of the war. War is naturally fol-
lowed by period of social unrest and
friction, a disturbance of the social
equilibrium attained before the war.
When the passion of hate is once
aroused, the more turbulent elements
of society always look for some object
on which that passion may be satisfied
in the easiest, most convenient and
safest manner. In looking for such
&c 1Iryox
among them but not one of them, the
Jew hated and despised for so many
centuries past, the Jew generally pa
cific and defenseless, the Jew is the
first and readiest victim. If no one
else can be reviled, attacked, ma
ligned, mobbed or annoyed, the Jew
is always ready at hand.
THE JEW AS SCAPEGOAT
But that is not all. A catastrophe,
such as the recent world war, leaves
not only a trail of misery, ruin and
desolation behind, but goes on breed
ing misery for some time afterward.
Such is the cost of war. Heavy bur-
dens are imposed upon the peoples to
make good the losses caused by wars
destructiveness. The economic read
iustment is difficult. The people
gradually awaken to the horror of it
all. During the war people are too
intoxicated with their patriotic en-
thusiasm to think about the wars con-
sequences. The sober thought comes
afterward. It is then that people be-
gin to search for the cause of it all,
for the source of all their misery
brought on by the folly and wicked
ness of the nations rulers. The ig-
norant, unthinking masses, not under

children with at night, the Jew who
was thought capable Of every social
crime-is the cause of the latest
catastrophe his evil mind has
planned and plotted it all for his own
selfish gain, or to satisfy his own evil
impulses, the ignorant masses are
ready to believe it, and vengeance is
wrought on the Jew.
Nor is that all. 1t is in the inter-
est Of certain ruling powers in So
ciety, or such as have the ambition
to rule or to regain the position of
leadership they have lost, to divert
peoples attention from real issues to
fictitious ones, to find scapegoat for
the sins of which they themselves
may have been guilty, to confuse peo-
pies minds, to make parties and
movements hated by them even more
hateful by linking them in a purely
arbitrary way with an element or
cause against which already consid-
cradle prejudice exists. There is no
question but what most of the pres
ent-day Jew batting in liberal coun-
tries is being instigated by czarists
and kaiserists who are now scattered
in Europe and America, from motives
indicated above. There is no question
but what the calumny spread broad
cast by interested parties that the
Jews of Russia and the Bolsheviki are
identical, that Bolshevism is entirely
Jewish, was meant to make Bolshev-
ism and the Jews all the more odious.
The Jew-hater is thus given a reason
for hating the Jews all the more, be-
cause of their Bolshevism; and the
anti-Bolshevist for abhorring Boil
shevism all the more, because it is
Jewish.
PRESENT JEW-HATING ONLY A
REVIVAL
Such, in my opinion, are the rea-
sons for the revival of Jew-hatred at
the present time. But it is only a
revival, or a reawakening of some
thing that has for a short while been
allowed to slumber in some parts of
the world. 1t is really nothing new.
A hundred or even seventy-five years
ago a Henry Ford or Chesterton or
a Morning Post of London would
have caused no surprise. The Jew has
been suffering this fate for over two
thousand years. The Jew is easily
made the scapegoat for humanity's
sins because he has for many CEN
turtles played that part. 1t is now
easy to stir up new hatred against
the Jew because he has for so many
centuries been hated.
But why has the Jew for so many
centuries been hated so that it is easy
to stir up animosity against him
whenever desirable? That is the real
question. And this question has in
the last fifty years or so been re-
ceiving considerable attention by
Jews and non-Jews alike. A good
sized library could now be collected
on the subject of so-called anti-Semi-
tism. 1t is, indeed, most interest
ing social phenomenon to the student.
THE ENEMY'S EXPLANATION
The enemy of the Jews has no diff
Guilty in answering this question.
The Jew has been hated and baited

PNEUMATIC TIRES ON AUTO
TRUCKS SAVE HIGHWAYS
Department Of Agriculture Makes
Some Important Impact
Experiments.

Many roads not originally intended
to carry heavy traffic were seriously
damaged during the period of the
trucks. The natural result of this
, was to warn highway engineers of
the Importance of planning all fu-
ture roads with reference to the kind
of traffic that is likely to use them.
The engineers responded Immediate
ly by building thicker roads and
roads of more durable material: but
] in the absence Of definite knowledge
/ of the probable strength Of the i'm
pact they have not known exactly
how thick or how strong the roads
| must be made
; Recent tests of the impact Of motor
| trucks made by the bureau of public
! Agriculture. develop the facts that
when a solid-tired truck strikes a
1-inch obstruction. the impact may
| be as high rs seven times the load,
! an average being about four times.
! The tests show. however, that the
impact depends largely on the kind
and condition of the tire. Pneumatic
tires cause the least damage to the
road surface. the cushion Of air re-
, ducing the impact so that 1t Is sell
! dom greater than 4 times the static
! load on the wheels. Although the
impact increases with the speed of
,, the truck. and it is therefore highly
desirable to limit speed by strict
! regulation. the use Of pneumatic tires
! would make higher speed permissa-
| BILE.
The tests Of the bureau of public
| roads have pointed the way to more
| scientific designing OF roads for mo-
! to. truck traffic. and there Is every
! assurance that engineers will now be
allie to build roads with practical
i certainty that they will Withstand the
! blows of heavy vehicles.
Further reinsurance in this respect
| lies in the information that manu-
! facturcrs are not building as many
| trucks exceeding five tons capacity
as formerly. The number of indus
| tries in which very large trucks can
| be kept continuously working Is ex-
tremely limited. SO that the Likelihood
| of forthcoming motor truck damage
! to public highways is considerably
reduced.
