the Polish Jewish problem is brought
about not by an internal desire to set
the house in order so that it should
be able to accommodate all those who
are and should be there "of right and
not on sutferance," but, one is led to
suspect, that it was calculated on the
possible impression it might create
abroad in connection with Count Skr-
zynski's departure for America where
he will, as official statements say, lee
ture in Williamstown institute for
politics on political questions.
one of the conditions, insisted upon
the Polish government was that Polish
Jewry undertake to better the reputa-
tion of Poland among Jewry abroad.
This seems to be the center of the
question and one is inclined TO say
that it is an undertaking beyond the
reach of Polish Jewry. Whether or
not Poland has a good reputation is
not dependent on Polish Jewry, but
on the action of the Polish govern
ment. If the Polish Jewish problem
is being solved out oil a sincere de-
sire within the country to have jus,
tice, equality and law applicable tc
Jewish citizens, nothing but sym.
pathetic attitude on the part Of every
Jew, and non-Jow as well, outside
Poland can result If, however, the
negotiations "armistice," and
peace" are nothing but political fire,
works calculated to create better
atmosphere for Count Skrzynskis
visit to America, all the felicitations
and best wishes are, necessarily, II
vain.
"Your deeds will bring you nearer
your deeds will drive you away is 6
Jewish maxim which is true ever
with regard to Poland.

Our New York Letter
Count STzynski's Expected Visit and
the Negotiations for u Polish Jew
ish Agreement.
BY u. ALRoY

Copyright by Jewish Teleg. Agency 1920
Jewish public opinion in America
has been stirred this week by reports
from Warsaw, the capitol of the Po-
lish Republic. A new tone appeared
in the Warsaw dispatches. "Negotia-
tions," conferences" between this
leader and that statesman with an
unpronouncable Polish name, and fin
ally an unofficial announcement of a
is being submitted for ratification"
to the contracting parties.
1t sounds almost like armistice des-
patches from the Great War battle
field. We judge matters by our five
senses and sound is not the least of
them. The dispatches which sound
like armistice news do not misrepre-
sent this time: the truth of the mat
ter is that a civil war has been going
on in the Polish Republic, n war
which is the most hopeless and the
most destructive of conflicts because
it has as its parties two unequal
forces-a young but powerful state
machine and a fourteen percent
strong fraction of the Republics pop
ulation. The sighs and the S. o. S.
signals that re-echoed in every jew
ish community outside of Poland were
enough to disturb the mind and
grieve the heart of every member of
the Jewish race.
What is happening now? Two re
ports coincide; group of American
bankers visited Warsaw and investi-
gated the possibilities of high finance
investments and Count Alexander
Skrzynski, Polish Foreign Minister, is
packing his trunks to come to Amer
lea in a few weeks. The other re
port says that Count Alexander Skr-
zynski, Minister of Foreign Affairs in
the Polish cabinet has been negotiat-
ing and has reached an agreement on
twelve points which represent the
minimum demands of the Jewish pop
ulation in the Polish Republic so as
to enable it to enjoy the citizenship,
equality and rights guaranteed to
every citizen in the Polish Republic
by the Constitution of the nth of
March and the International peace
treaty signed by the representatives
of the Polish Government at Yer
sailles.
As to Count Skrzynski, there is no
doubt about his diplomatic ability. A
scion of n Polish noble family in Lit
tie Poland, a graduate of the Uni
, versities of Cracow and Vienna, he
worked his way up in diplomatic ser
vice of the late ria-Hudngarian
empire. A year before the war he
was to be advanced to the position
of the first secretary of the Austria
Hungarian embassy in Washington.
Poland, which had at first difficult
ties with almost all of its territorial
neighbors, has, under the manage
ment of Count Skrzynski, been able
to establish cordial relations with
Czecho- -Slovakia, Roumania, the Bal.
kan countries, and even correct rela.
tions with Soviet Russia and Ger.
many.
That thee task Of Solving" the Pc.
lish Jewish problem has been entrust.
ed by the Polish government to such
distinguished statesman as Count
Skrzynski is certainly indicative Of
the realization which is growing il
the minds of the Polish government
of the delicacy of the Polish Jewisl
situation. On the other hand, how
ever, it signifies that the solution o.

bility among our people for the pre-
servation of the legitimate rights and
the welfare of Israel. The lack of
any considerable number of Jewish
laymen with thorough, if not ex-
pert knowledge, of some of the jew
ish problems like that of immigration
and related questions, is standing
indictment of our highly centralized
and exclusive leadership. We will
never have sufficient and more COM
petent workers unless we will invite
more and more people to voice their
opinions, to consider the questions,
and to share in the work. That is
the central idea of the American jew
ish Congress as it is one of the fun
damental motives of democracy.
Forms of organization can easily be
arrived at once the principle of rep
resentation and of fair play is ac-
cepted. Where there is a will-to
consider the other mans will-there
is way. Experience has also taught
US something in this direction. But
above all, every Jewish organization
every group in Jewish life, every
community ought to have voice in
the management of Jewish affairs
Let more voices be welcomed in coun
sci and more hands will be raised tc
