Jewish Quiz Box

QUESTION:: Why do some
insist upon opening the Holy
Ark from right to left?
ANSWER: Actually, there
are two opinions in the codes,
one claiming that the Ark is
to be opened from right to
left, and the other claiming
that it is to be opened from
left to right. Most contend
that it should be opened from
right to left because this is
the fashion in which the He
brew script is written. Gen
orally, that which is holy is
done with the right hand. In
Kabbalistic lore the right is
generally the side of the good
and the holy.

ness School to be applicable to all its
graduates -non-Jewish as well as jewish
Another study, conducted by Cornell
University among 5000 undergraduates of
ten universities, established that there is
practically no difference at all in the
career aspirations of students related to
their religious affiliation - Jewish, Pro
testant or Catholic In response to the
question 'How important to you per
sonally is it to get ahead?" The follow
ing proportions of each religious group
answered very important: Jews, Sc per
cent; Catholics, Sc percent; Protestants,
55 percent.
Among those w h o e response was
fairly important, Jews numbered SO per
cent; Protestants, SO percent and Catho-
lies, 81 percent.
This striking similarity typified also
the responses to the question of the de
sire to make great deal of money,
importance of satisfaction in the job,
and similar questions concerning career
values.

I KNOW one Jewish WOm-

She said she thought this

Jews comprise seven percent of the
total number of college graduates in the
United States. But they constitute only
one-half of one percent in the executive
personnel of American business and in
dustry This tremendous disproportion is

some Americans have about Jews. Jewish

quently, to be impatient for advancement
and to lack team spirit. But are these
characteristics really Jewish?
A study made of Harvard Business
School alumni shows that only about one
fifth have stayed with one firm since
graduation and that only bout one
quarter expect to stay with their present
company. In another study of about 400
executives who have been changing jobs,
the findings show that in the majority of
cases, the primary reason for the switch
was to avoid blocks to advancement in
their positions The disqualifying charac-
teristcs imputed to Jews were thus found

August Belmont who used all his great
wealth to aid the North.
Yet such newspapers as the Chicago
Tribune and the New York Herald spoke
of all Jewish bankers as traitors who
were preparing to sell out the North to
the Confederacy
Anti-Semitic preachers spoke to large
crowds in the North condemning Jews.
Hateliterature was widely disseminated,
and even the most respected newspapers
had a hand in almost universal Jew
batting Newspapers, as a rule, identified
persons with Jewish names, arrested on
charges of smuggling or other such
crimes, as Jews They did not identify
Jews on the casualty lists as Jews.

troit Commercial Advertiser, among other
journals, declared that "all Jews are gold
speculators" The Boston Transcript at

DdlI1OIlC OOulIlGIIGI, d wealthy SllclI
ton Jew named Mordecai, contributed
$4,000 to the Confederacy. A newspaper
in Indiana stated that "our fellow citizens
of the Hebrew persuasion are, with few
honorable exceptions, all afflicted with
the Copperhead mania
And so it went, throughout the war,
both North and South. Overlooked were
the Jewish soldiers who flocked to the
colors of their respective sides and the
Jewish dead and wounded who suffered
along with other fellow Americans
The anti-Semitism of that period fur
nishes black chapter in the history of
our country But that movement is worth
recalling as an illustration of the fact
that, even in this country, times of stress
could bring anti-Semitism to the front.
But, even during the Civil War period,
there were other tendencieS-SignS of
healthy, decent American interest in fair
ness to all peoples, including Jews. We

By ALFRED III. PAUL

Thus far in this SERIES we have seen
the American Jew North and South, act
ing as a loyal American, behaving as
citizen loyal to the cause of all the people,
either on the Union side or in the Con-
federacy. But the American Jew during
the Civil War period-as the Jew in all
periods of history and in nearly all
lands-could not forget that he was some
thing else besides an American.
The Jew was not allowed to forget his
JeWiShness- although he was certainly
proud of it. A country in turmoil found,
in the Jew, a scapegoat. Anti-Semitism
was rife on both sides of the fighting lines
during the entire Civil War
One of the SOuth'S most prominent
statesmen was Judah P Benjamin,
apologist for slavery, friend of Confed-
crate President Jefferson Davis, success
sively Attorney General, Secretary of War
and Secretary of State for the Confed-
eracy. Another prominent Southerner
was David Levy Yulee, who represented
Florida in the U. S. Senate until Seces-
sion-when he resigned from the Senate
to take the side of the Confederacy.
Benjamin and Yulee were under constant
anti-Semitic attack throughout the Civil
War period. In the North, they were at
tackled as Jewish secessionists; in the
South, they were attacked simply as Jews
and blamed as Jews whenever the balance
of war turned against the Confederacy.
At one time, during the war, anti
Semitism became so pronounced that
Jewish army officer fighting for the Con-
federacy, Col Adolphus H. Adler, chal-
lenged the editor of the Richmond Ex-
aminer to duel for maligning Jews as
a race.
When a converted German Jew in
Frankfurt, Baron Erlanger, floated
$6,000000 loan to the Confederacy, he was
attacked as Jew by Harper's weekly, the
Cincinnati Gazette and other leading
periodicals in the North. These same
journals failed to mention other Jewish
bankers who were aiding the North The
Rothschild family in Frankfurt was lend

Editorial Comment

This is the Bar Mitzvah year of the
State of Israel, year that finds that
small but dynamic nation battling to con-
solidate its gains and to care for the
hundreds of thousands of refugees on its
shores.
Thirteen years of war and peace Cbut
more war than peace) have found an
unbelievable buildup. New farms have
sprung from the desert, new cities have
been carved out of rock-strewn hillsides.
And on the farms and in the cities nearly
a million newcomers are adjusting them
selves to a new way of living.
Many of the newcomers unfortunately
are still housed in temporary shelters.
The Maabara (the shanty towns made
necessary by quick buildings for the ref
ugees) are the disgrace of Israel today.

Order of Publication

Inc OBJECT or this SUIT is TO
procure a decree of divorce a
vinculo matrimonii by tn e
plaintiff, Stella Fink Robinson,
from the defendant, Glenwood
F. Robinson, and for such other
and further relief as to the
Court may seem proper.
The bill states that the plain
tiff and defendant were married
by a Minister of the Gospel in
Frederick, Maryland, on Janu-
airy 10, 1916, and ever since that
time have been and now are
husband and wife; that the
plaintiff has been a lifelong resi-
dent of Montgomery County,
Maryland, while the address of
the defendant is unknown; that
no child has been born to the
parties; that on or about the
23rd day of January, 1916, the
defendant abandoned and de-
serted the plaintiff without just
cause and that such abandon
ment has continued uninter-
ruptedly for more than eighteen
months, is deliberate and final,
and the separation of the par
ties is beyond any reasonable
expectation of a reconciliation.
1t is thereupon this 18th day
of September, 1861, Ordered by
the Circuit Court for Montgom-
cry County, as a Court of
Equity, that the plaintiff, by
causing a copy of this Order to
be inserted in some newspaper
published in Montgomery Coun-
ty once week in each of four
successive weeks before the
18th day of October, 1861, give
notice to the said absent defend
ant of the object and substance
of this bill, warning him to file
his initial pleading on or before
the 18th day of November next,
to show cause, If any he has,
why a decree ought not to be
passed as prayed, or in the
alternative, by the service of a
copy of this Order of Publica-
ton personally on the defend
ant, Glenwood Robinson, on or
before one month before the
said 18th day of November,
1861.
