There have been many who have
aptIy described the cause of anti
Semitism And of all of the
phrases offered 1 think I have
preferred the dislike of the un-
like" 1 don't know who voiced
it originally but it sounded
like an all inclusive definition e.
However, a quip thrown in the
motion picture "Cass Timberlane"
seems a better fit although it had
nothing to do with anti-Semitism
1t was offered by Queenie,
the leader of society of western
town, when she learned that their
leading bachelor had Tilted the one
eligible girl in their set to marry
a poor outsider :. "Pll see to it
that that little upstart doesn't get
into our crowd" said Queenie =.
And for my money that little seed
of wanting to be exclusive which
lies deep in every one of us is what
lays the egg which produces anti
SemitiSm ..
But what produces the egg
which makes a Jewish leader want
to hush up everything when there
is evidence that the Jews are do
ing something to combat anti
Semitism is something I am still
trying to discover Recently a
news item came to us through a
national office announcing that a
Jacksonville man had been APP
pointed as a member of it's nat
ional board s. The organization
is doing commendable job in
combating anti-Semitism and the
manner in which they do it is no
secret We were advised to
contact the gentleman and ask
him for his picture This we did
=. AS you guessed, we were not
only not given the picture, but
told to squelch the entire story
What 1 would like to know is OF
what this gentleman is afraid OF
ashamed :. Is it that people like
him are afraid to admit that there
is such thing as anti-Semitism
and that they are doing something
to fight for their rights against
those who would Cypress them
or are they simply ashamed OF
publicly identifying themselves
with their Jewish brethren?
would really like to know the an
SWer
Actually this type of attitude is
not only to be identified with the
rich and socially prominent
In the last two weeks we met two
good yehudim gentlemen act
i've in Jewish work and with Jew.
