E. DITORlAL
THE B'NAI BIRTH

The B'nai Birth, now no longer a
secret organization, continues to play
an important part in the life of the
Jewish people. 1t would be a serious
mistake to think or say that the B'nai
Birth has not within the last few
years done as good work as it had
previously been doing. Its magnifi-
cent institutions are the clearest proof
of the splendid work it is doing. Ow-
ing to a combination of conditions
and circumstances, however, the work
of the Order does not now stand out
as conspicuously in the affairs of u
people nationally or internationally as
it did formerly. A time there was
when the B'nai Birth was the uncon-
tested representative body among our
people and could assume to speak
authoritatively for them. Today a
claim on it's part to be the mouth
piece of all Jews would probably be
contested in many quarters, for there
are now several organizations that
think themselves authoritative, though
not authorized, to speak for all Israel.
But there is a psychological side to
the question which must not be lost
sight Of. Our people have not stood
still since the organization of the
B'nai Birth, and Jewish problems
have not remained the same. In fact,
the whole Jewish viewpoint has IN
dergone a great change within recent
years. Until recently the Jew did not
reach out for a permanent solution of
the various problems confronting him.
Temporary good work, such as char
ity and philanthropy, was for the
most part thought sufficient to place
a body of men in the forefront of or
CARNATIONS. The pan-human dream
was then in the air and raised high
the sanguine hopes of the Jew. At
best, it was sought to keep u peo-
ole together by the remembrance Of
their common past while working with

HE MUST BE GOOD LOOKING

Apropos, the Jewish Community of
johannesburg, South Africa, has re-
Gently been advertising for a Rabbi,
and they demand in any candidate
that he shall be "good looking, thor
oughly conversant with Hebrew, a
fluent speaker, eloquent in a marked
degree, a master Of English, gentle
and kind in manner, competent to lead
in all humanitarian projects, and com
mand the respect of ALL" A paragon
in very sooth! Yet for such a n the
offer is but G750 a year, with a free
house and a life insurance of a thou
sand pounds. Hardly a sufficient in
ducement, we should think, for any
man to be born good looking, much
less to acquire all the other qualifica-
tions demanded by the Reef city.
What we cannot help thinking about,
by the by, is the modesty of spirit
that is certain to characterize the man
who will be induced to apply for the
post on the strength of being assured
for himself that he comes up to the

the greatest department stores in the
world-that of B. Altman and Co.
as one of the products of his life.
His estate was valued at $50 900.
Nothing unique in that, you say.
And you are right.
But what did B. Altman do with his
fifty millions? First, he gave one
third, consisting of the greatest pri-
vately owned art collection in the
world, outright to the Metropolitan
Museum for the whole people for
ever.
Then, after various public requests,
he bequeathed the balance, valued at
$50, 200, 0O0-his stock in B. Altman
and Co.-to "the Altman Foundation"
with the proviso that the income from
this stock should be used forever for
the benefit of the men and women and
their families-4,000 of them-who
had helped him to make his fortune.
The first cash distribution of $780,
900 has just been made, and it was
announced this was but the harbinger
of more and better things to follow.
Who shall say that the Jew has M
sense of the obligations of wealth?
For the example of Altman is not the
only one that could be drawn of the
beneficence pre- and post norton that
has distinguished some among our
people.-Jewish World, London.

SEEING PALESTINE

SE[LlI<U IALCno LINE
With reference to Palestine and
some of it's recent visitors, there are
three facts which if taken together
are very significant: u The Arab
guides, it is claimed, manage to avoid
showing the tourists any of the Jew
ish colonies; p Lord Northcliffe,
whose impressions of Palestine are
not too favorable, had little or no con-
tact with those who could have shown
him Jewish progress in the land; -
Mr.. Adolph Ochs, publisher of the
New York Times, returning from his
visit to the Holy Land, was greatly
impressed by the enthusiastic jealous
idealists who were making Palestine
the promised land, flowing with milk
and honey.
Nor is Mr.. Ochs the only one who
has returned from Palestine with a
higher conception of what Jews ear
accomplish there. For it is a remark
able fact that many, who when they
entered the country were luke-warm
if not antagonistic to Zionism, re-
turned enthusiastic advocates of the
Jewish renascence. We recall that
some years ago Dr.. Joseph Kraus-
kopf, of Philadelphia, came back from
a world trip including a visit in Pal
estine, a most eloquent advocate of
Zionism. More recently, Rabbi Nor
ris Lazaron of Baltimore, whose train
ing and associations were not calcu-
lated to make him more friendly to
Zionism than Rabbis Calsich, Land
man or Philipson, was so impressed
with what he had seen in Palestine
that he felt impelled to appear
before the congressional committee to
champion the Hamilton Fish resolu-
ton in favor of the Balfour declara-
ton.
But when praise is wrung from
ones enemy, it is a compliment in
deed. The very fact that the Arabs
who are opposed to the Jewish aspira-
tions find it to their advantage to keep
tourists from seeing the Jewish colo
MES, lest they be we'll impressed, is.
the finest tribute to Jewish achieve
ment.
So it is of the utmost Importance
for Zionist success that there be facil-
tiles for having every tourist, Jewish
as we'll as non-Jewish, get the proper
impression of what Jews have accom-
plished in Palestine. Every tourist is
a potential booster" or ~"knocker,"
depending upon what he sees. We
know only too we'll how wretchedly
squalid and poverty-stricken crowded
ghettos can look, and we "a imagine
what an unfavorable impression the
old districts of Jerusalem or Safed or
Jaffa must make upon the Western
visitor. But in Palestine one can also
see what the Jews are capable of
along constructive lines, if given free
rein. Tel Aviv, the new suburb of
Jaffa, the farm colonies, even the
newer districts of the metropolis,
these represent the initial fulfllment
of the Jewish promise. Why not
capitalize these truly remarkable &C
complishments of the Jewish pioneers,
and win the friendship and admira-
ton of those who visit. the land?
Failure of the Zionist organization
in this regard is a serious sin. of omis-
sion. Failure to "put the best foot
forward" is not only false modesty,
but shows lack of knowledge of hu-
man nature, and is a neglect of a
mighty source Of legitimate, favora-
BILE propaganda. To show that Pales-
tine needs the Jew as much as the
The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1922-05-05

have been considered criminal, and of
the Jewish religion only the ethics
were stressed and emphasized.
Under such conditions it can read
lily be seer why the B'nai Birth was
in a position to play a most important
role in Jewry. It's rostrum contained
the most advanced and most affluent
among our people-those who were
best able to practice charity and phil
anthropy and otherwise to exemplify
the ethics of the Jew to the outside
world. That it represented but a
small minority Of the Jewish people
was not in any way considered a dis
advantage, for it was thought to make
up in quality for what it lacked in
quantity.
There came a time, however, when
numbers began to count. This coun-
try, the original seat and to this day
the fountain head of B'nai-B 'rithism,
experienced a large influx of Jews.
F~raternities were organized, rivalry
seemed certain, and in this rivalry the
other, younger organizations babe
fair to exceed the B'nai Birth. The
Order, alive to the signs of the times,
made an effort to adjust itself to the
changed conditions. It left it's shell
and loosened it's former a%ristocratic
ex%clusiveness. It began to make an
open bid for numbers. Formal, ritual
istic religion, always a strong bond of
union among the masses, was taken
into the policy and program Of the
Order. Instead Of barring discussions
on purely religious subjects from the
lodge room, as it had originally done,
it now began to cooperate with the
synagogue. The spirit of democracy
began to make itself felt more and
more, and it's very system of quasi
secrecy had to present a justification,
even an apology, for it's existence.
Thus the day was saved for the Or
der. Although not able to make it's
membership the largest Of any Jewish
organization, it's prestige, the fine
quality and high calibre of it's leaders,
together with it's splendid benevo-
%lences, insured it's representative
standing.
But then came Zionism with it's
promises and prophecies of solving
permanently all Jewish problems.
The most ardent hopes, long sup
pressed, at times almost crushed, be-
gan to u high. Jewish conscious
ness was aroused; Jewish life began
to stir in every corner of the globe;
an awakening and a quickening be-
came noticeable everywhere. The in
terest of Jews in every cline and con-
dition and walk of life was enlisted in
the movement. Distinction of caste
and class and social station was for
gotten; people Of the most different
and diverse shades of opinion, habits
and modes of life banded themselves
together to work out the solution of
the Jewish question; the idol of the
Paris salon, the highly cultured liter
ateur of Vienna, the banker of Lon
don and the broker in Berlin, the
pietist in Galicia and the socialist in
Switzerland, the Polish Orthodox
rabbi and the American Reform
preacher, the maskil and the mater
ialist, the student at the University
and the Bachur in the Yesibah-all
worked for the Jewish renaissance
and watched for the Jewish ~restora-
ton. And this circumstance more,
perhaps, than any other brought it
about that even the B'nai Birth, the
most representative of Jewish oreani-
