Ameriea-conselous. but the fact Is
that our early environment was
allen in the sense that our parents
were foreigners who could hardly
speak the language Of this country
and knew little OF its history or
traditions. We. their children. used
to argue about the United States
which so many other children just
took for granted. The process OF
Americanization through which we
were led as children in the Educa-
tional Alliance. left upon us a per
manent mark OF love. Of respect
for American traditions.
Perhaps nothing that came TO us
In that environment has been as
treasured as the doctrine OF rellg-
ion as private right, as some
thing strictly personal with each
family and each individual. To our
parents who escaped from the mis-.
cries OF Europe this American right
was sufficient to fill their lives
with unending satisfactions and
happiness. And the misery OF this
generation Is that II permits the
politician TO pollute that as he does
so much else.

The Nastiness Commences
These DaysSSSssSi5 0 5" {: yoz6IsR7

In New York, whenever a politi-
cal campaign starts, the lines are
Immediately fouled by religious
and racial issues. The politicians
in their smokeiilled rooms sit
down to balance a Jew against
Catholic, a Protestant against an
Italian, a Negro against a Park
Avenue swell. The ballot usually
reads like that with the result that
fine citizens avoid politics and
throw our democracy to grafters,
time-servers, slogan-slingers and to
those who make a profession of
religious, racial. credal over-empha.
sis. The "smart" politician Is the
one who keeps this brew boiling
no matter what harm It does the
country.
The process Is divisive because
a sleek young fellow, particularly
lawyer with political ambitions. on
the make. usually figures that the
best way for him TO get on is not
TO serve America but to give the
appearance OF serving some separ-
ate segment OF the population. He
keeps the excitement and irritation
within that segment alive so that
he will have what is called "activ.
ity." He delivers speeches on the
subject OF his pet activity. In fact,
he makes a career OF hate. He
smears his objective opponents
while he. himself. does all the dirty
things OF which he accuses others.
The political bosses, looking
about them for eligible young men
discover these noisy, selfish crea-
lures and attach them to their ma
chimes, so that when nominating
time comes, they bargain one hater
against another. In a word, II an
Italian is needed, the boss OF the
Bronx, Mr.. Flynn, or the boss OF
Brooklyn. Mr.. Kelly. can produce
an Italian who has had plenty OF
this kind OF smart-aleck publicity.
The same is true OF the Jew. the
Catholic, the Negro, the Laborite,
etc, but the unaffiliated American
is omitted. He apparently cannot
get publicity and has no activity.
No question OF efficiency, OF fitness
for public office is involved. No
body dares to measure men by that
yardstick.
Judge Jonah Koldstein, who is
running for Mayor OF New York
City on the Republican. Liberal
and Fusion tickets has made this
statement which is American and
adds light TO the subject:
II want no one to vote for me
because OF my religion. hope no
one will vote against me because
OF my religion. Religion has no
place in politics any more than
politics in religion"
That ought to settle that argu-
ment. But II won't. Whoever is
weakest in the campaign will raise
this filthy issue. Whoever has no.

OF course l asked George how he
happened to write "A Book About
the Bible" Because" ne aaid with
no hesitation, II wanted answers to
those questions myself" The first
Bible Stimson ever owned he got
from a mail order house when he
was IS. II was his second "own"
book. The first was Pilgrims
Progress" He read them both, by
a kerosene lamp. stretched out on
his stomach on the kitchen table.
Then he began to ask questions
luestions-questions-of his Sunday
school teacher, Of the preacher, Of
anyone who would listen. How did
Paul look1 What about Jesus
brothers? What became Of the lost
tribes Of Israel! and many others
which thousands Of readers Of the
Bible have asked before and since.
The answers weren't so staisfac Glory
to the young inquisitor and so he
kept on asking. And reading, and
chipping ana searching and re-
searching.
Nor did he cease to examine the
source Of his curiosity. He has read
the Bible from cover to cover at
least 10 times. He has read II count
less times II you added up his brows-
ings. He has read II twice aloud to
himself.
And now. he gives the world the
answers TO the questions he himself
began asking back there in the little
country church, giving them to the
world simply. authoritatively and
completely. at n moment when the

Ing read more widely than ever, by

Last week I sat down 10 write .
piece about a man who wrote book
about the Bible. I thought the book
and its creator were worth more
