J
Jew Is 'Apart'
Only in Creed
dahbi Answers Klan Wizard
With Statement Race Has
Become Assimilated
in America.
Rabbi Frederick Cohn answered W.
H. Evans, Imperial wizard of the Ku
Klux Klan, in an address last night
at Temple Israel. Hts subject was
“Vision, or Lack of Vision, or Charles
i Evans Hughes Against Imperial
Wizard Evans.”
The address is an answer to the
statement of Evans that the Jew
could not he blended into an Anglo
Saxon civilization.
"When I chose my subject,
•Vision,’ about a month ago, I had no
special vision that would be partic
ularly appropriate at this time, but
Secretary Hughes has come out in
a speech delivered at Providence, R.
I. , at Brown university, welcoming
President Angell of Yale, in which
he denounces what he calls the ‘fleet
ing vision,’ the itch for sensation,
the restlessness, the lack of poise,
the hysteria and general insanity of
the American people.
"He made a plea for vision. We
need the calm vision, the true and
sober judgment, and we must give
ourselves time for this by study, by
solitude, by going ’Into the silence,'
as some people call tt. Our American
life is too feverish: there are too many
distractions. We are apt to be spper
• flcial because hurried, we give snap
judgments, have only a smattering
of knowledge. It was lit a sense the
Babbitt character and the Babbitt
attitude that Hughes denounced; our
content with mediocrity, with super
ficiality with what is, In the last
analysis; ignorance, chauvinism and
worse.
Perish Without Vision.
"This is what the prophet of Israel
meant when he said, 'Where there is
no vision the people perish.' This
was explained further by the kindred
idea, 'My people perish for lack of
knowledge.' Ignorance, prejudice, Is
the besetting sin and and It leads to
death, destruction; not only to the
death of fine ideals, but to the de
struction of what has been gained.
"We have again been regaled with
an Instance of what ignorance and
prejudice, narrow-minded fanaticism
and bigotry can accomplish, in the
utterance of W. II. Evans Imperial
wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, as re
cently published. Hts speech has
been given wide publclty and there
fore cannot be ignored. It Is an at
tack in line with the w'ell known
‘principles,’ or lack of principles,
against the Catholics, the Jews and
the negro.
“I am concerned particularly with
what he said about the Jew (the Cath
olics will be able to tak# care ot
themselves, and those who fought a
Moody four-year war to Insure to the
negro hia rights, will see to It that
these are not taken from him).
Cites Evans’ Charges.
"The charges that he brings against
the Jews are: (1) That they are ‘un
blendable,’ they do not assimilate.
They are people apart from all other
people. They always will be. They
will never intermingle with America.
(2) They are not patriotic. To him
patriotism, as the Anglo-Saxon feels
it. is impossible. (3) A fifth of the
Jewish race is in this country. (4)
Their homes are not American, into
VhU-h we cannot go.
"The Jew is ‘apart’ only religiously.
Dreams of Speeding Car;
Has Auto Crash Next Day
Columbus, Neb., Oct. 26—Dream
warnings will be heeded by E. G.
Carter, from now on, he declares.
The other night Carter dreamed he
was riding in a car with another Co
lumbus man, traveling at a rapid pace
when the car suddenly turned around
and in a flash was traveling in the
other direction at a terrific rate of
speed. The day following Carter
started on a trip to Platte Center.
His automobile failed to make a turn
in the road near Platte Center and a
smashup followed from which Carter
fortunately escaped unhurt.
It Is in religion that differentiates
him from his fellow-citizens. He is a
Jew as others are Catholics and
Protestants and he has a right to be
a Jew particularly in this land of
religious liberty where religious free
dom is guaranteed and no one is
permitted by law to suffer or be dis
criminated against on account of his
religion. The Jew is a Jew only in
rel'gion, ill all other respects he is In
this country an American citizen.
“The foreign Jews such ns Israel
Zangwill understand this well and
this w'as the great point of his speech
delivered in New York a week ago
Sunday night. The Jew is in this
country but a little while when he
cannot be distinguished from the rest
of his fellow-citizens.
“In language, clothing, in manner
of living he is just like his fellow
citizens. He talks as they do, uses
the same kind of slang, lives in the
same kind of houses, rides in the
same kind of automobiles, goes to
the same movies, sings the same kind
of songs, has no more bananas than
anyone else, in all respects Is just
like his fellow-citizens.
Says Jews Inter-Marry.
“This is particularly true of the
children. Who can tell them 'apart'
from other children? Our great
American youth all betray the same
characteristics. As for marriage that
is a private affair and can be left
to take care of Itself. As a matter
of fact, there is more or less inter
marriage and has alw-ays been and
the history of the Jews and even the
physical characteristics of the Jews
prove it. Not ail Jews are dark or of
olive complexion, we have blonde
Jews, blue-eyed Jews, red-haired Jews,
we have all kinds of Jews: proving
(as is indeed historically known) that
there has been a 'blending,' inter
mixture all the time.
"Everybody is hopelessly blended
as far as that is concerned. There
is no Simon-pure race, not even the
Anglo-Saxon, the very name with its
hyphen shows the mixture and as
for 'blending' or assimilation in the
Jew, King David and Jesus of Naza
reth were descended from Jesse who
was great-grandson of Ruth, the
Moabitess. who was a Jewish convert,
and there have been lots of converts
in Judaism and their hlood has inter
mingled with the blood of the Jew-.
"As to the statement that the Jew
Is not patriotic we will not deign to/
discuss that subject, we hurl that lie
back into the teeth of those who utter
it. The Jews' record in the last war
and in all wars is blood-spilled on
every battlefield of the republic and is
sufficient refutation of that contemp
tible skinder and deliberate lie.
"As regards a fifth of the Jewish
race lives in this country that is only
3 per cent of the population. The
percentage of Catholics and Protest
ants is much greater but the consti
tution of the United States has not
applied the 'numerus clausus' and
Jews are just as welcome here and
have just as much right here as any
other element of the population.
America was meant to be the home
of the oppressed and down-trodden of
all the earth. It Is that that makes
it America and when It ceases to be
that it ceases to be America, It be
comes the visible empire of. the K.
K. K.
"As to Jewish homes not being
American and entrance into them
being difficult and Impossible—any
gentile at any time is welcome in any
Jewish home and he will find It thor
oughly American, duly ©quipped with
vlctrola and radio and all modern de
vices. If. as Evans himself says, they
are homes in which the Jews, ‘a
family people are reverently and
eugentcally responsive to God's laws'
that is surely nothing against them.
If that is why they are un-American
would we had more such American
ism. Jews and gentiles Intermingle
very freely. Some of the Jews' ‘best
friends' are gentiles!’’
