PLAIN TALK
BY Alfred Segal
OUR STIFF-NECKS

! nave Deem 9ett1n9 W0ro 4dteAy
about Jews wrapping themselves
up in special righteousness and
refusing to have anything to do
with gestures Of good will toward
their l1on-Jewish neighbors.
There was, as I recall, a recent
incident in New Jersey in which
some of the Jews of the commun-
ity took public steps to have their
children boycott Christmas OBJ
servance in the public schools. It
is creditable to other Jews of the
same community that they pub
lcly protested against this.
Now I read some utterances
made against the broad-minded
Jew of Claremont. N. H. In one
of the Yiddish press they are &C.
cused of trying to buy good
will" among the Christians. Their
alleged offense is that they sent
Christmas presents to the dis
abled in a Veterans Hospital:
they invited Christian ministers
to the pulpit of Rabbi Michael
Scenes of their temple.
If these were isolated incidents
they wouldn't be worth mention
ing. They belong to new pat
tern of some Jews who lately
have taken up a stiff-neckedness
unbecoming to the Jewish ideal.
Among members of the equally
unbending American Council for
Judaism ti-Zionist) have
heard it said that it all derives
from the idea that the Jews are
now a nation of their own: that
nationalistic arrogance is bound
to spring from this.
l don't like to believe this. My
own experience of Jews is that
most of them aren't feeling ma
enthusiastically Jewish because of
the state of Israel or are behav-
ing that way.
I hear them say that their ma
tionalitY is American and can be
nothing else. They feel that to as
sumo a national identity other
than American and to make spec
ial claims on account of it is
neither in the American or the
Jewish concept. They don't want
to feel or be considered alien in
the land that has prospered them
and given them to make the good
lives they have.
Rather the fault for the iSola-
tionism of Jews is not in Jews
themselves but in the anti-Sem-
itism that is current. 1t is the way
of people to withdraw within
themselves when the neighbor is
hostile. You walk on the other
side of the street lest you meet
him in passing his house. Your
self-respect avoids his unfriend-
ly glance.
I confess that l myself have
felt that way about non-Jews
Without protest I have listened
to Jews saying. well. there is
bit of -Semitism in all Of
them. Only afterwards have
asked myself are all OF then
really anti-Semitic. and l have
conscientiouslY answered No.
There are those = l can count
them by the dozen = in whom
there is no trace of the infection
Sometimes they say, rather In
eptly, Some of my best friends
etc. but they say it as a Sincere
expression of their good will.
