THE ANTI-ZIONIST
PROTEST

Unbelievable as it may seem,
there have been some unfeeling
Jews who protested to Senator
Lodge against his Senate resolu-
ton in favor of Zionism. These
people, and we understand among
them was the President Of the
Central Conference of American
Rabbis, have evidently not yet
learned to understand that there
is great difference between the
status of Zionism ten years ago
and that of today. At that time,
when Zionism was still more or
less merely an academic question
and had not yet entered into
period of realization, both the
wisdom and the feasibility of the
movement may have been debat-
able. Today, however, it is no
longer a question that is subject
to debate on academic grounds.
Today, the question is only as to
whether or not the Jewish people
will be able to improve the golden
opportunity that offers for Jew
ish center and a Jewish homeland.
And, while it is not to be ex-
pected that all the former oppo-
nents Of the movement would be-
come actively engaged in sup
porting it at this time, yet it is
really passed ones understanding
how any Jew could be so heart
less and unfeeling as to try to de-
stroy whatever foothold and ad-

denied that such conduct on the
part of Jews makes the realiza-
ton of the Zionist goal more diff
cult. Yet, is is safe to say that
in the eyes of the world such Jews
do not appear in very favorable
light. For the world has long
ago gained the conviction that the
true Jew may be trusted to be
truly patriotic and that Jewish
loyalty to the Jewish people is
the strongest assurance of Jewish
loyalty to the country of birth or
addition. The best minds among
the nations of the world fully
realize that the effort to have Pal
estine rehabilitated by the Jews
is not only right, but a duty of
the Jewish people. 1t was this
realization that led the great
scholar and statesman, Arthur J.
Balfour, to send to the Jewish
people his memorable declaration
in the name of the British govern
ment and it was this realization
also that induced the representa-
tives of the allied governments to
hand down the decision at San
Reno. If, therefore, the United
States Congress adopts resolu-
ton favoring the Zionist project
in Palestine, it is because the
members of Congress are con-
WINGED of the justice and right in
the Zionist claims. If a man like
Mr.. Lodge undertakes to spon-
scr such resolution in the Sen
ate, it is because he justly and
naturally supposes that he is help
ing the Jewish people to attain
success in a cause which is just
and laudab1e. Those among our
people, therefore, who are voicing
their protest against it must in
deed appear in the eyes of men
like Senator Lodge as persons
who are ungrateful to friends, in
different to their own people and
dlsloyal to a noble cause.

vantage the Zionists have gained

III the holy Lana.
Zionism today resembles very
much a family residence for
which the foundation has already
been laid and for whose construc-
ton the builders have been en-
gagged. In the case of contem-
plated family residence, it might
be perfectly in order for the diff
ferent members of the family to
discuss and debate the wisdom
of erecting the contemplated
structure. But such discussion
is in order only before the build
ing has commenced. Once the
foundation has been laid and the
building has gotten under way,
it, would be nothing short of
criminal if any member of the
family were to attempt violently
to destroy the foundation. So it
is also with Zionism. Before the
Balfour declaration and San
Reno decision, it may have been
perfectly in order for these few
people who could not see the wis
dom in attempting to reclaim
Palestine as Jewish homeland
to discuss and to dissent from the
Zionist projects. Today, how
ever, after the foundation has
been laid for the Jewish rehabili-
tation of Palestine, to protest
against the favorable attitude
that the United States Senate has
taken or is likely to take to that
movement is, to say the least,
hardly an honorable thing.
This does not mean, of course,
that criticism of the Zionist
administration or of some of the
methods and measures that pre-
vail in the Zionist movement is to
be regarded as reasonable; on
the contrary, some of the best
friends of the movement have
found great deal of late to criti-
else in the movement. Yet this
does not give any Jew a right to
try to destroy the movement it.
self.
The fact of the matter is that
some anti-Zionists are in the po-
sition of people who never learn
and never forget. There are some
in the anti-Zionist camp whose
objections date back more than
two decades, when the movement
was first called into life and the
goluth spirit made them fearful
lest the nations should suspect
disloyalty to the flags of their re-
spective countries in the adher-
ents, of the Zionist movement.
These opponents have evidently
not been able to keep pace with
the times nor to adjust their
viewpoints to the changed condi-
tons. They have simply been
unable to eradicate from their
consciousness the arguments adj

How ridiculous!
Is it the mission of the Jew to be
butchered in the Ukraine, NAL
treated in Poland, disintegrated
even in the lands of freedom? Is
that the mission of the Jew?
Or is it because Reform Juda-
ism claims that the Jews are
religious group instead of a ma
ton, people? How dare Reform
Judaism claim that? Little SYM
pathy as we have with the Aug
das Israel, the ultra Orthodox
party whose (mis) Representatives
saw fit to denounce Zionism to
Lord Northcliffe, there is some
slight excuse for the Agudas
Israel to take that position.
10 them the Jewish religion is the
breath of life, the sine qua non
of the Jew. To them, perhaps,
a Jewish nation without Judaism
is inconceivable. And even the
Agudas Israel has been repudi-
ated by the most Orthodox COM
munities in Pale slime and
elsewhere. But for Reform Tuda-
ism to say. we are merely a re-
l1glous group and not nation, is
tarclcal. 1t would be to laugh,
were not the matter so serious.
A religious group, indeed? The
Sabbath and the Festivals secu-
larized and all but banished from
the home and confined exclu-
slvely to the Temple. And even
there the worship made as close
a replica as possible of Occidental
Christianity, with hardly a YES
tige of observation-disclosures uncov-
cred, Hebrew banished, the pray
erbook stripped of every refer
ence to the Jewish future, Kash-
ruth ridiculed and regarded an
out=Worn superstition - in short,
type of faith and practice undis-
tinguishable from the more liber-
al Protestant sects. Can the Re-
form Rabbis unblushing1y speak
of the Jews being merely a re-
llgious group?
We do not anticipate that their
pltlable performance before the
House committee will prevent the
adoption of the resolution for Pal
estine. They can not hinder it's
passage, especially if self-respect-
ing Jews who believe in Palestine

The term touring applies
to any particular type Of body
because all types are used for
touring. The type Of body IN
