only from force of habit.
That is misery.

THE charge that Hamilton
l. Fish is pro-Nazi arises from
his opposition TO our entrance
into the war prior 10 Pearl
Harbor and his association with
like-minded persons. some OF
whom were actually pro-NaZi
or suspected as such.
That Ham Fish was indis-
Greet is certain that Ham Fish
is a traitor 10 his country does
not appear in available records.
Many persons were opposed
to our participation in the war
not only prior TO Pearl Harbor
but UP 10 and a day after Hitler
went to war with Stain.
The charge Of anti-Semitism
includes his interview in which
he said that Jews support
Roosevelt.
Whether Hamilton Fish is
right or wrong is provable
automatically.
There are test districts, par
ticularly in Brooklyn.
But suspect that II would be
found that the predomlnantly
Jewish residents of those dis
tricts voted for Roosevelt as dld
most residents of Brooklyn, IN
Guiding the non-Jews.
In 1910 Judge Joseph Pros
kauer. who is now chairman or
the American Jewish committee,
was for Willkle whereas many
other Jewish leaders were for
Roosevelt Rabbi stephen Wise
was publicly for Roosevelt, hut
Rabbi Abba lIillel Silver,
equally prominent, was publicly
for Willkie.
I do not believe that liamli-
ton Fish or anybody else can
prove this case one way or the
other conclusively, for the only
possible proof would be that the
percentage among Jews were, IN
1910. startlngly different from
other voters. After all. Mr..
Roosevelt received 27000,OOO
votes.
DUT what interests me most
ID is that any one should say
that a person is antl-Semltic
because he believes that Jews
vote for Roosevelt who must
have received many millions OF
Catholic, Protestant and even
agnostic and athciStic votes TO
total 27,0O0,0 00.

Jews who actually voted for
Roosevelt in 1910 and intend TO
vote for him IN lSi4, denounce
