JEWISH HISTORY IN THE
UNITED STATES
The story of the Jews in America begins with Christopher
Columbus. On August 2, 1492, more than 300,000 Jews were expelled from Spain
and on August 3, the next day, Columbus set sail for the west, taking a group
of Jews with him.
They were not, however, refugees, for the prophetic
navigator's plans had aroused the sympathy of influential Jews for a long
period previously. Columbus himself tells us that he consorted much with Jews.
The first letter he wrote detailing his discoveries was to a Jew. Indeed, the
eventful voyage itself, which added to men's knowledge and wealth "the other
half of the earth", was made possible by Jews. The pleasant story that it was
Queen Isabella's jewels, which financed the voyage, has disappeared under cool
research.
There were three Maranos or "secret Jews" who wielded great
influence at the Spanish court: Luis de Santagel, who was an important
merchant of Valencia and who was "farmer" of the royal taxes; his relative,
Gabriel Sanchez, who was the royal treasurer; and their friend, the royal
chamberlain, Juan Cabrero. These worked unceasingly on Queen Isabella's
imagination, picturing to her the depletion of the royal treasury and the
likelihood of Columbus discovering the fabulous gold of the Indies, until the
Queen was ready to offer her jewels in pawn for the funds. But Santagel craved
permission to advance the money himself, which he did, 17,000 ducats in all,
about 5,000 pounds, perhaps equal to 40,000 pounds today.
Associated with Columbus in the voyage were at least five
Jews: Luis de Torres, interpreter; Marco, the surgeon; Bernal, the physician;
Alonzo de la Calle, and Gabriel Sanchez. Luis de Torres was the first man
ashore, the first to discover the use of tobacco; he settled in Cuba and may
be said to be the father of Jewish control of the tobacco business, as it
exists today.
Columbus' old patrons, Luis de Santagel and Gabriel
Sanchez, received many privileges for the part they played in the work, but
Columbus himself became the victim of a conspiracy fostered by Bernal, the
ship's doctor, and suffered injustice and imprisonment as his reward.
From that beginning, Jews looked more and more to America
as a fruitful field, and immigration set in strongly toward South America,
principally Brazil. But because of military participation in a disagreement
between the Brazilians and the Dutch, the Jews of Brazil found it necessary to
emigrate, which they did in the direction of the Dutch colony of what is now
New York. Peter Stuyvesant, the Dutch governor, did not entirely approve of
their settling among his people and ordered them to leave, but the Jews had
evidently taken the precaution to assure their being received if not welcomed,
because upon revoking the order of Stuyvesant, the Directors gave as one of
the reasons for the Jews being received, "the large amount of capital which
they have invested in the shares of the Company."
Nevertheless they were forbidden to enter public service
and to open retail shops, which had the effect of driving them into foreign
trade in which they were soon exercising all but a monopoly because of their
European connections.
This is only one of the thousand illustrations, which can
be given of the resourcefulness of the Jew. Forbid him in one direction he
will excel in another. When he was forbidden to deal in new clothes, he sold
old clothes that was the beginning of the organized traffic in secondhand
clothing. When he was forbidden to deal in merchandise, he dealt in waste the
Jew is the originator of the waste product business of the world; he was the
originator of the salvage system; he found wealth in the debris of
civilization. He taught people how to use old rags, how to clean old feathers,
how to use gallnuts and rabbit skins. He has always had a taste for the
furrier trade, which he now controls, and to him is due the multitude of
common skins, which now pass under various alluring trade names as furs of
high origin.
Unwittingly, old Peter Stuyvesant compelled the Jews to
make New York the principal port of America, and though a majority of New York
Jews had fled to Philadelphia at the time of the American Revolution, most of
them returned to New York at the earliest opportunity, instinct seeming to
make them aware that, in New York was to be their principal paradise of gain.
And so it has proved.
New York is the greatest center of Jewish population in the
world. It is the gateway where the bulk of American imports and exports are
taxed, and where practical all the business done in America pays tribute to
the masters of money. The very land of the city is the holdings of the Jews.
No wonder that Jewish writers, viewing this unprecedented
prosperity, this unchecked growth in wealth and power, exclaim
enthusiastically that the United States is the Promised Land foretold by the
prophets and New York the New Jerusalem. Some have gone even further and
described the peaks of the Rockies as "the mountains of Zion," and with
reason, too, if the mining and coastal wealth of the Jews is considered.
In the time of George Washington there were about 4,000
Jews in the country, most of them well to do traders. They favored the
American side and helped the revolutionary colonies out with loans at critical
moments.
In fifty years the traceable increase in the Jewish
population of the United States was more than 3,300,000. What it is today no
man can estimate with any hope of accuracy.
To make a list of the lines of business controlled by the
Jews of the United States would be to touch most of the vital industries of
the country those which are really vital, and those which cultivated habit
have been made to seem vital. The theatrical business is exclusively Jewish;
play producing, booking, theater operation are all in the hands of Jews. This
accounts for the fact that in almost every production today can be detected
propaganda, sometimes glaringly commercial advertisement, sometimes direct
political instruction.
The motion picture industry; the sugar industry; the
tobacco industry; fifty per cent or more of the meat packing industry; over
sixty per cent of the shoemaking industry; most of the musical purveying done
in the country; jewelry; grain; cotton; oil; steel; magazine authorship; T
news distribution; the liquor business; the loan business; these, to name only
the industries with national and international sweep, are in control of the
Jews of the United States, either alone or in association with Jews overseas.
The American people would be vastly surprised if they could
see a lineup of some of the "American business men' who hold up our commercial
prestige overseas. They are mostly Jews. This may throw a sidelight on the
regard in which "American business methods" are held in some parts of the
world. When many different races of people can carry on business under the
name "American," and do it legally, too, it is not surprising that Americans
do not recognize some of the descriptions of American methods, which appear in
the foreign Press. If the reputation of American business has suffered, it is
because something ether than American methods have been used under the
American name.
Instances of Jewish prosperity in the United States are
commonplace, but prosperity, the just reward of foresight and application, is
not to be confounded with control. It would be impossible for any Gentile
coalition under similar circumstances to attain the control which the Jews
have won, for the reason that there is lacking in the Gentile a certain
quality of working togetherness, a certain conspiracy of objective, and the
adhesiveness of intense raciality, which characterizes the Jew. It is nothing
to a Gentile that another man is a Gentile; it is next to everything to a Jew
that the man at his door is another Jew.
The International Jewish plan to move their money market to
the United States was what the American people did rot want. We have the
warning of history as to what this means. It has meant in turn that Spain,
Venice, Germany or Great Britain received the blame or suspicion of the world
for what the Jewish financiers have done. It is a most important consideration
that most of the national animosities that exist today arose out of resentment
against what Jewish money power did under the camouflage of national names.
"The British did this," "The Germans did this," when it was
the International Jew who did it, the nations being but the marked spaces on
his checker board. Today, around the world the blaming word is heard, "The
United States did this. If it were not for the United States the world would
be in a better shape. The Americans are a sordid, greedy, cruel people."
Why? Because the Jewish money power is centered here and is
making money out of both our immunity and Europe's distress, playing one
against the other; and because so many so-called "American business men"
abroad today are not Americans at all they are Jews.
Citizens wake up with a start to find that even the white
nations are hardly allowed to see each other nowadays except through Jewish
eyes. Great Britain and France seldom see a special American spokesman who is
not a Jew. That may be the reason why they reciprocate by sending Jews to us,
thinking perhaps that we prefer them.
"We will force up wages, which however will be of no
benefit to workers, for we at the same time will cause a rise in the prices of
prime necessities, pretending that this is due to decline of agriculture and
of cattle raising. We will also artfully and deeply undermine the sources of
production by instilling in the workmen ideas of anarchy and encourage them in
the use of alcohol, at the same time taking measures to drive all the
intellectual forces of the Gentiles from the land."
The Sixth Protocol
Chapter 2
ANGLES OF JEWISH
INFLUENCE
The Jewish Question exists wherever Jews appear, says
Theodor Herzl, because they bring it with them. It is not their numbers that
create the Question, for there is in almost every country a larger number of
other aliens than of Jews. It is not their much boasted ability, for it is now
coming to be understood that, give the Jew an equal start and hold him to the
rules of the game, and he is not smarter than anyone else; indeed, in one
great class of Jews the zeal is quenched when opportunity for intrigue is
removed.
The Jewish Question is not the number of Jews who reside
here, not in the American's jealousy of the Jew's success, certainly not in
any objection to the Jew's Mosaic religion it is in something else, and that
something else is the fact of Jewish influence on the life of the country
where Jews dwell; in the United States it is the Jewish influence on American
life.
That the Jews exert an influence, they themselves loudly
proclaim. The Jews claim, indeed, that the fundamentals of the United States
are Jewish and not Christian, and that the entire history of this country
should be rewritten to make proper acknowledgement of the prior glory due to
Judah. If the question of influence rested entirely on the Jewish claim, there
would be no occasion for doubt; they claim it alp but it is kindness to hold
them to the facts; it is also more clearly explanatory of the conditions in
our country.
If they insist that they "gave us our Bible" and "gave us
our God" and "gave us our religion," as they do over and over again with
nauseating superciliousness throughout all their polemic publications not a
angle one of these claims being true they must not grow impatient and profane
while we complete the list of the real influences they have set at work in
American life.
It is not the Jewish people but the Jewish idea, and the
people only as vehicles of the idea that is the point at issue. In this
investigation of the Jewish Question, it is Jewish influence and the Jewish
Idea that are being discovered and defined.
The Jews are propagandists. This was originally their
mission. But they were to propagate the central tenet of their religion. This
they failed to do. By failing in this they, according to their own Scriptures,
failed everywhere they are now without a mission of blessing. Few of their
leaders even claim a spiritual mission. But the mission idea is still with
them in a degenerate form; it represents the grossest materialism of the day;
it has become a means of sordid acquisition instead of a channel of service.
LABOR AND JEWRY
The essence of the Jewish Idea to its influence on the
labor world is the same as in all other departments the destruction of real
values in favor of fictitious values. The Jewish philosophy of money is not to
"make money," but to "get money." The distinction between these two is
fundamental. That explains Jews being "financiers" instead of "captains of
industry." It is the difference between "getting" and "making."
The creative, constructive type of mind has an affection
for the thing it is doing. The non-Jewish worker formerly chose the work he
liked best. He did not change employment easily, because there was a bond
between him and the kind of work he had chosen. Nothing else was so attractive
to him. He would rather draw a little less money and do what he liked to do,
than a little more and do what irked him. The "maker" is always thus
influenced by his liking.
Not so the "getter." It doesn't matter what he does, so
long as the income is satisfactory. He has no illusions, sentiments or
affections on the side of work. It is the "geld" that counts. He has no
attachment for the things he makes, for he doesn't make any; he deals in the
things, which other men make and regards them solely on the side of their
moneymaking value. "The joy of creative labor" is nothing to him, not even an
intelligible saying.
Now, previous to the advent of Jewish socialistic and
subversive ideas, the predominant thought in the labor world was to "make"
things and thus "make" money. There was a pride among mechanics. Men who made
things were a sturdy, honest race because they dealt with ideas of skill and
quality, and their very characters were formed by the satisfaction of having
performed useful functions in society. They were the Makers. And society was
solid so long as they were solid. Men made shoes as exhibitions of their
skill. Farmers raised crops for the inherent love of crops, not with reference
to far off money markets. Everywhere THE JOB was the main thing and the rest
was incidental.
The only way to break down this strong safeguard of society
a creative laboring class of sturdy character was to sow other ideas among it;
and the most dangerous of all the ideas sown was that which substituted "get"
for "make."
With the required manipulation of the money and food
markets, enough pressure could be brought to bear on the ultimate consumers to
give point to the idea of "get," and it was not long before the internal
relations of American business were totally upset, with Jews at the head of
the banking system, and Jews at the head of both the conservative and radical
elements of the Labor Movement, and, most potent of all, the Jewish Idea sowed
through the minds of workingmen. What Idea? The idea of "get" instead of
"make."
The idea of "get" is a vicious, antisocial and destructive
idea when held alone; but when held in company with "make" and as second in
importance, it is legitimate and constructive. As soon as a man or a class is
inoculated with the strictly Jewish idea of "getting" ("getting mine";
"getting while the getting is good"; honestly if you can, dishonestly if you
must but get it" all of which are notes of this treasonable philosophy), the
very cement of Duncan society loses its adhesiveness and begins to crumble.
The great myth and fiction of Money has been forced into the place of real
things, and the second step of the drama can thus be opened up.
Jewish influence on the thought of the workingmen of the
United States, as well as on the thought of business and professional men, has
been bad, thoroughly bad. This is not manifested in a division between
"capital" and "labor," for there are no such separate elements; there is only
the executive and operating departments of American business. The real
division is between the Jewish Idea of "get" and the Anglo-Saxon idea of
"make," and at the present time the Jewish idea has been successful enough to
have caused an upset.
All over the United States, in many branches of trade,
Communist colleges are maintained, officered and taught by Jews. These
so-called colleges exist in Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Rochester,
Pittsburgh, New York, Philadelphia and other cities, the whole intent being to
put all American labor on a "get" basis, which must prove the economic
damnation of the country. That is the end sought, as in Russia.
Until Jews can show that the infiltration of foreign Jews
and the Jewish Idea into the American labor movement has made for the
betterment in character and estate, in citizenship and economic statesmanship,
the charge of being an alien, destructive and treasonable influence will have
to stand.
THIS CHURCHES AND JEWRY
The last place the uninstructed observer would look for
traces of Jewish influence is in the Christian Church, yet if he fails to look
there he will miss much. If the libraries of our theological seminaries were
equipped with complete files of Jewish literary effort during recent decades,
and if the theological students were required to read these Jewish utterances
there would be less silly talk and fewer "easy marks" for Jewish propaganda in
the American pulpit. For the next 25 years every theological seminary should
support a chair for the study of Modern Jewish influence and the Protocols.
The fiction, that the Jews are an Old Testament people faithful to the Mosaic
Law, would then be exploded, and timid Christians would no longer
superstitiously hesitate to speak the truth about them because of that sadly
misinterpreted text: "I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that
curseth thee."
There is a mission for the pulpit to liberate the Church
from what the New Testament Scriptures call "the fear of the Jews." The pulpit
has also the mission of liberating the Church from the error that Judah and
Israel are synonymous. The reading of the Scriptures which confuse the tribe
of Judah with Israel, and which interpret every mention of Israel as
signifying the Jews, is at the root of more than one-half the confusion and
division traceable in Christian doctrinal statements.
The Jews are NOT "The Chosen People," though practically
the entire Church has succumbed to the propaganda which declares them to be
so. The Jewish tinge of thought has of late years overspread many Christian
statements, and the uninstructed clergy have proved more and more amenable to
Jewish suggestion.
The flaccid condition of the Church, so much deplored by
spokesmen who had regard for her inner life, was brought about not by
"science," not by "scholarship," not by the "increase of light and learning"
for none of these things are antagonistic even to incomplete statements of
truth but by Jewish German Higher Criticism. The defenders of the faith have
fought long and valiantly against the inroads made by the so-called Higher
Criticism, but were sadly incapacitated in their defense, because they did not
see that its origin and purpose were Jewish. It was not Christian; it was not
German; it was Jewish.
It is perfectly in keeping with the Jewish World Program
that this destructive influence should be sent out under Jewish auspices, and
it is perfectly in keeping with non-Jewish trustfulness to accept the thing
without looking at its source. The Church is now victim of a second attack
against her, in the rampant Socialism and Sovietism that have been thrust upon
her in the name of flabby and unmoral theories of "brotherhood" and in an
appeal to her "fairness." The church has been made to believe that she is a
forum for discussion and not a high place for annunciation.
Jews have actually invaded, in person and in program;
hundreds of American churches, with their subversive and impossible social
ideals, and at last became so cocksure of their domination of the situation
that they were met with the inevitable check.
Clergymen ought to know that seven-eights of the economic
mush they speak from the pulpit is prepared by Jewish professors of political
economy and revolutionary leaders. They should be informed that economic
thought has been so completely Judaized by means of a deliberate and masterly
plan of camouflaged propaganda, that the mass thought of the crowd (which is
the thought mostly echoed in "popular" pulpits and editorials) is more Jewish
than Jewry itself holds.
The Jew has got hold of the Church in doctrine, in
liberalism, so-called, and in the feverish and feeble sociological diversions
of many classes. If there is any place where a straight study of the Jewish
Question should be made it is in the modern Church, which is unconsciously
giving allegiance to a mass of Jewish propaganda. It is not reaction that is
counseled here; it is progress along constructive paths, the paths of our
forefathers, the Anglo-Saxons, who have to this day been the World Builders,
the Makers of cities and commerce and continents; and not the Jews who have
never been builders or pioneers, who have never peopled the wilderness, but
who move in upon the labors of other men. They are not to be blamed for not
being Builders or Pioneers, perhaps; they are to be blamed for claiming all
the rights of pioneers; but even then, perhaps, their blame ought not to be so
great as the blame that rests upon the sons of the Anglo-Saxons for rejecting
the straightforward Building of their fathers, and taking up with the doubtful
ideas of Judah.
JEWRY IN SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES
Colleges are being constantly invaded by the Jewish Idea.
The sons of the Anglo-Saxons are being attacked in their very heredity. The
sons of the Builders, the Makers, are being subverted to the philosophy of the
destroyers. Young men in the first exhilarating months of intellectual freedom
are being seized with promissory doctrines, the source and consequences of
which they do not see. There is a natural rebelliousness of youth, which
promises progress; there is a natural venturesomeness to play free with
ancient faiths; both of which are ebullitions of the spirit and significance
of dawning mental virility. It is during the periods when these adolescent
expansions are in process that the youth is captured by influences, which
deliberately lie in wait for him at the colleges. True, in after years a large
proportion comes to their senses sufficiently to be able "to sit on the fence
and see themselves go by," and they come back to sanity. They find that "free
love" doctrines make exhilarating club topics, but that the Family the old
fashioned loyalty of one man and one woman to each other and their children is
the basis not only of society, but of all personal character and progress.
They find that Revolution, while a delightful subject for fiery debates and an
excellent stimulant to the feeling of superman likeness, is nevertheless not
the process of progress.
The trouble with the colleges has progressed along
precisely the same lines that have been described in connection with the
churches. First, Jewish higher criticism in the r destruction of young men's
sense of respect for the ancient foundations; second, Jewish revolutionary
social doctrines. The two always go together. They cannot live apart. They are
the fulfillment of the Protocol's program to split non-Jewish society by means
of ideas.
It is idle to attack the "radicalism" of college student
these are the qualities of immaturity. But it is not idle to show that social
radicalism ("radicalism" being a very good word very sadly misused) comes from
a Jewish source. The central group of Red philosophers in every university is
a Jewish group, with often enough a "Gentile front" in the shape of a deluded
professor. Some of these professors are in the pay of outside Red
organizations. There are Intercollegiate Socialist Societies, swarming with
Jews and Jewish influences, and toting Jewish professors around the country,
addressing fraternities under the patronage of the best civic and university
auspices. Student lecture courses are fine pasture for this propaganda, the
purpose being to give the students the thrill of believing that they are
taking part in the beginning of a new great movement, comparable to the
winning of Independence.
The revolutionary forces, which head up in Jewry rely very
heavily on the respectability, which is given their movement by the adhesion
of students and a few professors. It was so in Russia everyone knows what the
name "student" eventually came to signify in that country. The Jewish
Chautauqua, which works almost exclusively in colleges and universities,
together with Bolshevism in art, science, religion, economics and sociology,
are driving straight through the Anglo-Saxon traditions and landmarks of our
race of students. These are ably assisted by professors and clergymen whose
thinking has been dislocated and poisoned by Jewish subversive influences in
theology and sociology.
WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT?
Simply identify the source and nature of the influence,
which has overrun our schools and universities. Let the students know that
their choice is between the Anglo-Saxons and the Tribe of Judah. Let the
students decide, in making up their allegiance, whether they will follow the
Builders or those who seek to tear down. It is not a case for argument. The
only absolute antidote to the Jewish influence is to call college students
back to a pride of race.
We often speak of the Fathers as if they were the few who
happened to affix their signatures to a great document, which marked a new era
of liberty. The Fathers of our nation were the men of the Anglo-Saxon Celtic
race. The men who came from Europe with civilization in their blood and in
their destiny. The men who crossed the Atlantic and set up civilization on a
bleak and rockbound coast; the men who drove north to Alaska and west to
California; the men who opened up the tropics and subdued the arctics; the men
who mastered the African veldt; the men who peopled I Australia and seized the
gates of the world at Suez, Gibraltar and Panama; men who have given form to
every government and a livelihood to every people and an ideal to every
century. They got neither their God nor their religion from Judah, nor yet
their speech nor their creative genius they are the Ruling People. Chosen
throughout the centuries to Master the world, by building it ever better and
better, and not by breaking it down.
Into the camp of this race, among the sons of the rulers,
comes a people that has no civilization to point to, no aspiring religion, no
universal speech, no great achievement in any realm but the realm of "get,"
cast out of every land that gave them hospitality, and these people endeavor
to tell the Sons of the Saxons what is needed to make the world what it ought
to be!
If our sons follow this counsel of dark rebellion and
destruction, it is because they do not know whose sons they are; of what race
they are the scions. Let there be free speech to the limit in our universities
and free intercourse of ideas, but let Jewish thoughts be labeled Jewish, and
let our sons know the racial secret.
NAB THE ENEMY!
The warning has already gone out through the colleges. The
system of Jewish procedure is already fully known. How simple it is! First,
you secularize the public schools "secularize" is the precise word the Jews
use for the process. You prepare the mind of the public school child by
enforcing the rule that no mention shall ever be made to indicate that culture
or patriotism is in any way connected with the deeper principles of the
Anglo-Saxon religion. Keep it out, every sight and sound of it! Keep out also
every word that will aid any child to identify the Jewish race. Then, when you
have thus prepared the soil, you can go into the universities and colleges and
enter upon the double program of pouring contempt on all the Anglo-Saxon
landmarks, at the same time filling the void with Jewish revolutionary ideas.
The influence of the common people is driven out of the
schools, where common people's influence can go; but Jewish influence is
allowed to run rampant in the higher institutions where the common people's
influence cannot go. Secularize the schools, and you can then Jud�ize the
universities.
This is the "liberalism" which Jewish spokesmen so much
applaud. In labor unions, in churches, in universities, it has tainted the
principles of work, faith and society. The proof of it is written thickly over
all Jewish activities and utterances. It is in exerting these very influences
that Jewry convinces itself that it is fulfilling its "mission" to the world.
The capitalism attacked is non-Jewish capitalism; the
orthodoxy attacked is Christian orthodoxy; the society attacked is the
Anglo-Saxon form of society; all of which bat their destruction would redound
to the glory of Judaism.
The list could be extended the influence of the Jewish idea
on Anglo-Saxon sports and pleasure, on the Anglo-Saxon idea of patriotism, on
the Anglo-Saxon conception of the learned professions; the influence of the
Jewish idea runs down through every department of life.
"Well," one very badly deluded American editor, wrapped up
in Jewish advertising contracts, was heard to say, "If the Jews can get away
with it, then they have a right to." It is a variant of the "answer" of Jewish
origin, which runs thus: "How can a paltry 3 million run the 100 million of
the rest of us? Nonsense!"
Yes, let it be agreed; if the Jewish idea is the stronger,
if the Jewish ability is the greater, let them conquer; let Anglo-Saxon
principles and power go down in ruins before the Tribe of Judah. But first let
the two ideas struggle under their own banners; let it be a fair struggle.
It is not a fair fight when in the movies, in the schools,
in the Jud�ized churches, in the universities, the Anglo-Saxon idea is kept
away from the Anglo-Saxons on the plea that it is "sectarian' or "clannish" or
"obsolete" or something else, say, reaction.
It is not a fair fight when Jewish ideas are offered as
Anglo-Saxon ideas, because offered under Anglo-Saxon auspices. Let the
heritage of our Anglo-Saxon fathers have free course among their Anglo-Saxon
sons, and the Jewish idea can never triumph over it, in the university forum
or in the marts of trade. The Jewish idea never triumphs until first the
people over whom it triumphs are denied the nurture of their native culture.
Judah has begun the struggle. Judah has made the invasion.
Let it come. Let no man fear it. But let every a man insist that the fight be
fair. Let college students and leaders of thought know that the objective is
the regnancy of the ideas and the race that have built all the civilization we
see and that promises all the civilization of the future; let them also know
that the attacking force is Jewish.
That is all that will be necessary. It is against this that
the Jews protest. "You must not identify us," they say, "You must not use the
term 'Jew'." Why? Because unless the Jewish idea can creep in under the
assumption of other than Jewish origin, it is doomed. Anglo-Saxon ideas dare
proclaim themselves and their origin. A proper proclamation is all that is
necessary today. Compel every invading idea to run up its flag!
"It is for this reason that we must undermine faith,
eradicate from the minds of the Gentles the very principles of God and Soul,
and replace these conceptions by mathematical calculations and material
desires."
The Fourth Protocol
Chapter 3
VICTIMS OR
PERSECUTORS?
From the earliest record of the Jews' contact with other
nations, no long period of years has ever passed without the charge arising
that the Jews constitute "a people within a people, a nation within a nation."
When this charge is made today it is vehemently denied by men who pose as the
defenders of their people, and the denial is more or less countenanced by all
the Jews of every class. Yet there is nothing more clearly stated in Jewish
teaching, nor more clearly indicated in Jewish life, than that the charge is
true. But whether the truth should be used against the Jews is quite another
question.
If the Jews are a nation, their nationality founded upon
the double ground of race and religion, it is certainly outside the bounds of
reason that they should be asked or expected to de-racialize, denationalize
and de-religionize themselves; but neither is it to be expected that they
should bitterly denounce those who state the facts. It is only on a basis of
facts that a solution of any problem can come. Where the blame attaches is
here: that the evident facts are denied, as if no one but the Jews themselves
knew that there are such facts.
If the Jews are to be continuously a nation, as they teach,
and if the condition of "a nation within a nation' becomes more and more
intolerable, then the solution must come through one of two things: a
separation of the "nation" from the rest of the nations, or an exaltation of
the "nation" above the rest of the nations. There is a mass of evidence in
Jewish writings that the leaders expect both of these conditions to come a
separate nation and a super nation; indeed the heart of Jewish teaching is
that Jewry is a separate nation now, and on the way to becoming a super
nation. It is only those appointed to address the Gentiles who deny this: the
real rabbinate of Judah does not deny.
JEWS OBJECT TO "AMERICANISM".
In any investigation of the Jewish Question, the student is
struck over and over again by the fact that what the Jews most complain of,
they themselves began. They complain of what they call anti-Semitism; but it
must be apparent to the dullest mind that there could never have been such a
thing as anti-Semitism were there not first such a thing as Semitism. Then
take the complaint about the Jews having to live in ghettos. The ghetto is a
Jewish invention. In the beginning of the invasion of European cities, and
centuries later of American cities, the Jews always lived by themselves
because they wanted to; because they believed the presence of Gentiles
contaminated them. Jewish writers, writing for Jews, freely admit this; but in
writing for Gentiles, they refer to the ghetto as an illustration of Gentile
cruelty. The idea of contamination originated with the Jews, it is an old
oriental survival; it spread by suggestion to the Gentiles. So with this fact
of the separate "nation" it was the Jews who first recognized it, first
insisted upon it and have always sought to realize that separateness both in
thought and action.
More, the true and normal type of Jew believes that the
influence of Americanism, or of any civilized Gentile state, is harmful to
Judaism. That is a serious statement and no amount of Gentile assertion will
be sufficient to confirm it. Indeed, it is such a statement as the Gentile
mind could not have evolved, because the trend of Gentile feeling is all in
the opposite direction, namely that Americanization is a good thing for the
Jew. It is from authoritative Jewish sources we learn this fact, that what we
call civilizing influences are looked upon as being at enmity with Judaism. It
is not the Gentile who says that Jewish ideals, as ideals, are incompatible
with the life of our country; it is the Jew who says so. It is he who inveighs
against Americanism, not the American who inveighs against Judaism.
Americanism is yet unfinished, Judaism has been complete
for centuries. While no American would think of pointing to any part of the
country or to any group as representing the true and final type of
Americanism, the Jews quite unhesitatingly point to parts of the world and to
certain groups as representing the true type of Judaism.
Where is the type to be found which Jewish writers
recognize as the true one? The Jew of the ghetto is held up in Jewish
treatises as the norm of Judaism. A famous rabbi of the synagogue of the
Spanish and Portuguese Jews, on Central Park, New York, was Dr. D. de Sola
Pool. He is the author of the following words: "In the ghetto the observance
of Judaism was natural and almost inevitable. The regimen of Jewish life was
the atmosphere that was breathed."
Another famous Jewish rabbi, Dr. M. H. Segal, expresses the
view that Jewry in the more modern portions of Europe and America was really
kept alive by the infusions of immigrants from Poland and Lithuania.
Asserting, in agreement with other Jewish leaders, that the Jewish center of
the world had been in Russia and Poland until just before the 1914 war, Dr.
Segal says: "The war (1914-1918) has destroyed the last traces of the
declining Jewish society which had dragged out its feeble existence in the
semi medieval ghettos of Poland and Lithuania. With all their growing
feebleness, these communities were yet the last refuge of Judaism in the
Dispersion. In them there still survived something of the old Jewish life,
some of the old Jewish institutions, practices and traditions. These
communities also supplied such vitality as they could afford to the attenuated
and atrophied Judaism in the communities of the more modern states of Europe
and America."
The idea is not at all uncommon that large infusions of
"real Jews" from the Old World ghettos are desirable and necessary in order to
keep Judaism alive in countries like the United States. Israel Friedlaender,
whose name is held in honor by the Jews, also recognized the service of the
ghetto stream to Judaism. In his lecture, "The Problem of Judaism in America,"
he speaks about the de-Judaizing tendencies of absolute freedom, such as the
Jew has always enjoyed in the United States. This tendency, he says, is
corrected in two ways by anti-Semitic influences and "by the large stream of
Jewish emigration, on the other hand, which, proceeding from the lands of
oppression to the lands of freedom, carries with it, on or under the surface,
the preserving and reviving influences of the ghetto." This same authority, in
an article entitled "The Americanization of the Jewish Immigrant," frankly
prefers the Jew fresh from the ghetto to the Jew who has been influenced by
American life.
To "Americanize" means, in our ordinary speech, to bring
into sympathy with the traditions and institutions of the United States, but
the Jews do not mean only the United States when they say "America." They mean
also south and Central America where so many revolutions have occurred. There
are large numbers of Jews in Argentina, and many are found in other countries.
It would probably give a wrong slant to the fact to say that the Jewish
leaders are wholly anti-America, but it is true to say that they are against
the "Americanization" of the Jewish immigrant stream. That is, that the trend
of "Americanism" is so different from the trend of "Judaism" that the two are
in conflict. This does not indicate treason toward American nationalisms
perhaps; so much as it indicates loyalty toward Jewish nationalism. But the
reader must himself be the judge, on the facts given in this book, as to how
far the difference really goes and the effect of the struggle between the two
ideas. The fact of the antagonism, which exists between the two, is clear and
complete. The Gentiles do not notice that antagonism, but the Jews are always
and everywhere keenly aware of it. This throws a very strong light on all the
revolutionary programs to break up the present control of society, by sowing
dissensions between so-called capital and labor, by cheapening the dignity of
government through corrupt politics, by trivializing the mind of the people
through theaters and movies, but it is in the study of Jewish moneymaking out
of war that the clues are found to most of the great abuses of which the Jews
have been guilty. "Wars are the Jews' harvests," is an ancient saying. Their
predilection for the quartermaster's department has been observed anciently
and modernly. Their interest being mostly in profits and not in national
issues; their traditional loyalty being to the Jewish nation, rather than to
any other nation; it is natural that they should be found to be the merchants
of goods and information in times of war that is, the war profiteers and
spies. As the unbroken program is traced through the Revolutionary War,
through the Civil War, and through the Great War*, the only change observable
is the increasing power and profit of the Jews. Although the number of Jews
resident in the American colonies was small, there were enough to make a mark
on the Revolutionary War; and while there was no wholesale legislation against
Jews as there was in the Civil War, there were the same actions against
individuals for the same causes which in 1861-5 obtained more extensively.
JEWS AND THE "RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION" CRY
No intelligent Jew in the United States ever was asinine
enough to declare that the Jewish Question is a religious question and that
investigation of that question in these articles constituted "religious
persecution." But it is apparently all that remains for the "Gentile fronts"
to shout about. From what can be learned of them they are for the most part
men of no religion themselves and they use the term "religious persecution" as
a red rag, which they think, will stir people into action. It is curious how
the cry of "religious persecution" is used to evoke the spirit of persecution
against the alleged persecutors.
Neither directly nor by implication is it held in these
articles that the Jewish Question is a religious question. On the contrary,
supported by the highest Jewish authorities, it is firmly stated that the
Jewish Question is one of race and nationality.
There is no religious persecution of the Jews in the United
States, unless the agitation of the various humane societies for the abolition
of "kosher killing" may be considered as such the method of slaughtering
animals for food, which is needlessly cruel. But even this objection can only
with difficulty be stretched into interference with "the religion of the
Jews." The Jewish method of slaughter as now practiced is not commanded in the
Old Testament but in the Talmud, and is, therefore, not religious in the
authoritative sense, but traditional. Moreover, there is positive evidence
that modern methods achieve the Jewish purpose (the disposal of the blood of
the carcass) much better than does the Jewish method. This is the only
instance where even remotely the religion of the Jews has been touched.
The fact is that while there is no "religious persecution".
Of the Jews, there is very much real religious persecution by the Jews. That
is one of the outstanding characteristics of organized Jewish life in the
United States, its active, unceasing, powerful and virulent attacks upon any
and all forms of Christianity, which may chance to come to public notice. Now
and again we hear of outbreaks of sectarian bigotry between Catholics and
Protestants, but these are not to be compared with the steady, relentless,
alert, anti-Christian activity of the Jewish organizations. There are
doctrinal disputes within the Christian Churches, but none that challenge the
basis of Christianity itself; organized Judaism, however, is not content with
doctrinal disputation, but enlists its vast commercial and political power
against everything that it regards as, in its own words, "Christological
manifestations."
No President of the United States has yet dared to take his
inaugural oath on the open pages of the New Testament the Jews would denounce
him. Various governors of American states, having used the word "Christian" in
their Thanksgiving proclamations, have been obliged to teach Americanism in
our cities because it held that Christianity and good citizenship were
synonymous!
No public man in America has ever given public evidence of
his Christian faith without rebuke from the Jews. Not only do the Jews
disagree with Christian teaching, which is their right and no one questions it
but they excise it on demand of the Jews. Everything that would remind the
child in school that he is living in the midst of a Christian civilization, in
a nation declared by its Supreme Court to be founded on the Christian
principles, has been ordered out of the public schools on Jewish demand. In a
nation and at a time when a minority of Jews can print every year a record of
the apologies they have extorted from public officials for "having
inadvertently used the term 'Christian'," it is desirable that this charge of
"religious persecution" should be placed where it belongs.
The Jew glories in religious persecution as the American
glories in patriotism. Religious prejudice is the Jews' chief expression of
their own patriotism. It is the only well organized, active and successful
form of religious prejudice in the country because they have succeeded in
pulling off the gigantic trick of making not their own attitude~ but any
opposition to it, bear the stigma of "prejudice" and "persecution." That is
why the Jew uses these terms so frequently. He wants to label the other fellow
first. That is why any investigation of the Jewish Question is so wickedly
advertised, as anti-Semitism the Jew knows the advantage of labeling the other
man.
This theme "religious persecution," will not be found
anywhere within the whole range of the Jewish Question, except on the Jewish
side. There is, in the United States, a religious prejudice, but it is
strictly Yiddish. If the Christian population bothered one-hundredth
thousandth part as much about Jewish religion as the Jews bother about
Christian observances, the whole fabric of Talmudic teaching would be consumed
in the bright light to which general attention would bring it, the bright
light from which it has always been concealed. Sheer analysis in the interest
of mental health would compel the Jewish people to abandon the darkness, which
holds them now. Jewish Talmudism owes its existence today to the indifference
with which it is regarded. This is the far Opposite extreme of ' religious
persecution."
Religious prejudice is just as unpleasant to write about,
as it is to experience in any other way. It is totally contrary to the genius
of the American and the Anglo-Saxon. We have always regarded religion as a
matter of conscience. To believe, as he will is part of every man's
fundamental liberty. Holding these hereditary principles, one chooses to study
that active stream of influence in America which is known as the Jewish
stream, and immediately upon doing so, one finds himself classed with the
bigots and torturers of other times.
It is time to show that the cry of "bigot" is raised mostly
by bigots. There is a religious prejudice in this country, there is, indeed, a
religious persecution, there is a forcible shoving aside of the religious
liberties of a majority of the people, and this prejudice and persecution and
use of force is Jewish and nothing but Jewish.
A study of history and of contemporary Jewish journalism
shows that Jewish prejudice and persecution is a continuous phenomenon
wherever the Jews have obtained power, and that in neither action nor word has
any disability placed upon the Jew equaled the disabilities he has placed and
still contemplates placing upon non-Jews. There is no Christian church that
the Jews have not repeatedly attacked.
If there is in the world any extra ecclesiastical
undertaking by Catholics, which has won the undivided approval of the entire
Christian world it is the Passion Play of Oberammergau Yet in a volume
entitled "A Rabbi's Impressions of the Oberammergau Passion Play," Rabbi
Joseph Krauskopf, of Philadelphia, has stigmatized that noble production as
reeking with falsehoods and vicious anti-Semitism. In the rabbi's eyes, of
course, it is, for to him the entire Christian tradition is a poisonous lie.
The whole fabric of Christian truth, especially as it concerns the person of
Christ is "the hallucinations of emotional men and hysterical women." "Thus,"
says the rabbi, "was invented that cruel story, that has caused more misery,
more innocent suffering, than any other work of fiction in the range of the
whole world's literature."
And thus the simple peasants of Oberammergau, presenting
the Catholic faith in reverent pageant, are labeled anti-Semites.
These are not isolated instances. When the Methodist Church
put on the great pageant entitled "The Wayfarer,'' Rabbi Stephen S. Wise
(American Zionist leader when this original was published, and one of the most
active political leaders of Zionist Jewry in the United Nations; Ed.) Played
critic and made the solemn and silly statement that had he been a South Sea
Islander (instead of the itinerant platform performer which he is) his first
impulse, after seeing "the Wayfarer," would have been to rush out into the
street and kill at least three Jews. It says a great deal, perhaps, for the
channel in which Rabbi Wise's impulses run, but the tens of thousands of
Methodists who saw "The Wayfarer:' will not be inclined to attribute such a
criticism to the spirit of tolerance which Rabbi Wise so zealously counsels
the Christians to observe.
The Episcopal Church also has felt the attack of the Jews.
Recently (June, 1921: Ed.) the Jewish Press raised a clamor that the Episcopal
Church was not competent to seek to interfere with it. It is not religious
tolerance in the midst of religious difference, but religious attack that they
preach and practice. The whole record of the Jewish opposition to Christmas,
Easter and other Christian festivals, and their opposition to certain
patriotic songs, shows the venom and directness of that attack. One parallel
between the Protocols and the real hopes of the Jews is written in the common
Jewish prophecy that Christianity is doomed to perish. It will perish, to all
intents and purposes, by becoming Judaism.
Jewish intolerance today, yesterday and in every age of
history where Jews were able to exert influence or power, is indisputable
except among people who do not know the record. Jewish intolerance in the past
is a matter of history; for the future it is a matter of Jewish prophecy. One
of the strongest causes militating against the full Americanization of several
millions of Jews in this country is their belief instilled in them by their
religious authorities that they are "chosen," that this land is theirs that
the inhabitants are idolaters that the day is coming when the Jews will be
supreme.
How can they otherwise act than in agreement with such
declarations? The supercilious attitude adopted by the Jews toward the stock
that made America is merely a foreshadowing of what would be the complete
attitude if power and influence made it possible. Bolshevism, which began with
the destruction of the class that contained all the promise of a better
Russia, is an exact parallel for the attitude that is adopted in this court
regarding the original stock.
"Let us all recognize that we Jews are a distinct
nationality of which every Jew, whatever his country, his station, or shade of
belief, is necessarily a member."
Louis D. Brandeis, Justice of the Supreme Court of the
United States.
Chapter 4
ARE THE JEWS A NATION?
No Gentile knows how many Jews there are in the United
States. The figures are the exclusive property of the Jewish authorities. The
government of the United States can provide statistics on almost every matter
pertaining to the population of the country, but whenever it has attempted in
a systematic way to get information about the Jews who are constantly entering
the country, and the number now resident here, the Jewish lobby at Washington
steps in and stops it. The Jews conceal their strength because Jewish
influence at the Capitol has been strong enough to win on all matters
affecting Jewish interests, at all times.
Immigration into the United States became a business 40
years ago a strictly Jewish business. There is a perfect organization, which
overcomes the numerous objections, which arise against the admission of known
revolutionary Jews European Jews are potential revolutionaries. America has
not been called "The Jews' Country" in the smaller nations of Europe for
nothing, and the alarming increase in Jewish immigration brings the question
to public attention again. A national conviction is forming upon the subject,
for it is apparent that the strictly Jewish business of getting Jews into the
United States moves like are army which, having done duty in Europe for the
subjugation of that continent, has transferred itself to America. Jewish
secret societies in America are the principal aides in this long stampede to
America. They are able to "arrange" the passport work; they "arrange"
avoidance of the health regulations. The laws of the country are set-aside in
open contempt. The Jewish immigrants can come from anywhere and are coming
from anywhere; their first glimpse of life here shows a Jewish control as
potent and complete as it is in Russia. They see officials of Jewish secret
societies override officials of the United States Immigration Bureau; why
should they not behave as if they own the United States? No wonder that they
literally beat down the walls and gates with all the eclat of a victorious
invasion. It is an invasion, nothing less, and it is inspired and helped by
influences within the United States. When it is not secret it is thinly
cloaked with sentiment "these people are fleeing from persecution."
After the tide of Jewish invasion into the United States in
the 1880�s became too wide for anyone to ignore the dangers, the census
authorities asked Congress for permission to classify people by "race" a well
as by "country of birth." The strongest opposition was led in Congress by the
Jews, principally by Simon Guggenheim and Julian WV. Mack. Hearings had to be
ordered to know what elements were comprising the population; whether the
United States was an Anglo-Saxon, Semitic, Latin nation, or what. The Jewish
opposition to the hearings disclosed four matters very clearly: (1) the Jew is
opposed to any restrictive legislation against his entrance into a country;
(2) the Jew is opposed to any racial classification of himself after he has
entered a country; (3) the Jewish argument to the Gentile authorities is that
the Jew represents religion and not race; (4) the Jew has one view to present
to the Gentiles, and another which he cherishes among his own people, on this
question of Race. When Americans disregarded as untenable the argument of
"religion, not race," the Jewish spokesmen were able to fall hack on the fact
that their powerful organizations did not want certain things and would not
have certain things argument or no argument, commission or no commission. The
Jewish lobbyists had their way. There is no enumeration of Jews in the United
States. There are classifications for all other races and nations, but none
for the Jew. None of the other races made objection, but the Jew is not
distinguished at all. What is the result today? If you ask the government of
the United States how many Frenchmen there are in the country, it can give you
the figures. If you ask for the number of Poles, it is there. If you ask for
the number of Africans, it is known. Down a long list you may make your
inquiries, you will find that the government knows. But ask the government of
the United States how many Jews are in the country and it cannot tell; there
are no records.
RACE OR RELIGION?
What have the Jews themselves to say about "race or
religion?" The following quotations put the reader in possession of
information regarding the Jew's own thought of himself as a member of a
separate people, quite aside from the consideration of his religion.
Leo N. Levi, President of B'nai B'rith, 1900-1904: "The
distinctive character of the Jew does not arise solely from his religion. It
is true that his race and religion are indissolubly connected, but whatever be
the cause of this junction of the race idea with the religion, it is very
certain that the religion alone does not constitute the people. A believer in
the Jewish faith does not by reason of that fact become a Jew. On the other
hand, however, a Jew by birth remains a Jew, even though he abjures his
religion."
Graetz, the historian of the Jews, whose monumental work is
one of the standard authorities, says that the history of the Jews, even since
they lost the Jewish State, "still possesses a national character; it is by no
means merely a creed or church history." Moses Hess, one of the historic
figures through whom the whole Jewish Program has flowed down from its ancient
sources to its modern agents, wrote a book entitled "Rome and Jerusalem" in
which he stated the whole matter with clearness and force:
"The Jews are something more than mere 'followers of a
religion,' namely; they are a race, a brotherhood, a nation." (p. 71).
"A Jew belongs to his race and consequently also to
Judaism, in spite of the fact that he or his ancestors have become apostates."
(p. 97-98).
"Every Jew is, whether he likes it or not, solidly united
with the entire nation." (p. 163). "Jewish religion is, above all, Jewish
patriotism." (p. 61). Louis D. Brandeis, Justice of the Supreme Court of the
United States and world leader of the Zionist movement, wrote in his book
"Zionism and the American Jews,"
"Despite the meditations of pundits or the decrees of
councils, our own instinct and acts, and those of others, have defined for us
the term 'Jew'."
Rabbi Morris Joseph, sometime of the West London Synagogue
of British Jews, writes in his book "Israel a Nation," Israel is assuredly a
great nation...Israel is recognized as a nation by those who see it; no one
could possibly mistake it for a sect. To deny Jewish nationality you must deny
the existence of the Jew."
The Jewish barrister, Bertram B. Benas, writes in "Zionism
the National Jewish Movement," "The Jewish entity is essentially the entity of
a People." Leon Simon, a brilliant and impressive Jewish scholar and writer,
makes an important study of the question of "religion and nationality," in his
volume, "Studies in Jewish Nationalism." He makes out a case for the
proposition that the religion of the Jews is Nationalism, and that Nationalism
is an integral part of their religion: "The Messianic Age means for the Jew
not merely the establishment of peace on earth and good will to men, but the
universal recognition of the Jew and his God (p. 14).
"Judaism has no message of salvation for the individual
soul, as Christianity has; all its ideas are bound up with the existence of
the Jewish nation." (p. 20).
"The idea that Jews are a religious sect, precisely
parallel to Catholics and Protestants, is nonsense." (p. 34).
Arthur D. Lewis, a Jewish writer, in his "The Jews a
Nation," also bases nationality on the racial element:
"The Jews were originally a nation, and have retained more
than most nations one of the elements of nationality namely, the race element;
this may be proved, of course, by the common sense test of their distinguish
ability. You can more easily see that a Jew is a Jew than that an Englishman
is an Englishman."
The idea that the Jews comprise a nation is the most common
idea of all among Jews. Not only a nation with a past, but a nation with a
future. More than that not only a nation, but a Super Nation. We can go still
further on the authority of Jewish statements: we can say that the future form
of the Jewish Nation will be a kingdom. Elkan N. Adler says: "No serious
politician today doubts that our people have a political future."
This future political definiteness and power was in the
mind of Moses Hess when he wrote in 1862mark the date! In the preface of his
"Rome and Jerusalem," these words: "No nation can be indifferent to the fact
that in the coming European struggle for liberty, if may have another people
as its friend or foe."
Hess, complaining of the inequalities visited upon the
Jews, was saying that what the individual Jew could not get because he was a
Jew, the Jewish Nation would be able to get because it would be a nation. He
warns the Gentile nations to be careful, because in that "coming struggle"
there would be another nation in the list, the Jewish Nation, which could be
the friend or foe of any it chose.
Dr. Israel Friedlaender says: "It is enough for us to know
that the Jews have always felt themselves as a separate race, sharply marked
off from the rest of mankind."
As to the problems of the Jewish Nation, there is plenty of
Jewish testimony to the fact that the influence of Americanism is harmful to
Jewish life; that is, they are in antagonism, like two opposite ideas. And
that Zionism is the modern rallying point for Jewish nationalism. The actual
beliefs of the most active and influential part of Jewry in America are
demonstrated in a work published by the Zionist Organization of America,
"Guide to Zionism", "The name of their national religion, Judaism, is derived
from their national designation. An unreligious Jew is still a Jew, and he can
with difficulty escape his allegiance only by repudiating the name of Jew."
(p. 5).
Jewry nowhere subscribes in the persons of its greatest
teachers and its most authoritative representatives to the theory that the Jew
is only "a brother of the faith." Often he is not of the faith at all, but he
is still a Jew. The "religion, not race" argument exposes the double minds of
those political leaders who, instead of straightforwardly meeting the Jewish
Question, endeavor to turn all inquiry aside by an impressive confusion of the
Gentile mind.
There are two Jewish Programs in the world one, which it
is, intended the Gentiles should see, and one, which is exclusively for the
Jews. In determining which is the real program, it is a safe course to adopt
the one that is made to succeed. It is the program sponsored by the so-called
Zionists, which is succeeding. That is the program whose sponsors stand for
the racial and national separateness of the Jews.
Regardless of what may be said to the Gentiles for the
purpose of hindering or modifying their action, there is no question of what
the Jew thinks of himself: he thinks of himself as belonging to a People,
united to that people by ties of blood which no amount of credal change can
weaken, heir of that People's past and agent of that People's political
future. He belongs to a race; he belongs to a nation. He seeks a kingdom to
come on this earth, a kingdom which shall be over all kingdoms, with Jerusalem
the ruling city of the world. That desire of the Jewish nation may be
fulfilled; and the relationships between Jewish nationalism and the
nationalism of the peoples among whom the Jews dwell are pointers to the
potential victory.
THE POLICY OF "MISREPRESENTATION"
To these exposures of the "religion, not race," arguments,
the Jews have complained that they are being misrepresented. It is their usual
complaint. They are always being "misrepresented" and "persecuted" except when
they are being praised for what they are not. If the Jews were fully
understood by the Gentiles, if the Christian churches, for example, were freed
from their delusion that the Jews are Old Testament people, and if the
churches really knew what Talmudic religion is, the "misrepresentation" would
be still stronger.
The downfall of Russia was prepared by a long and
deliberate program of misrepresentation of the Russian people, through the
Jewish world press and Jewish diplomatic service. The name of Poland has been
drawn (December, 1920: Ed.) in filth through the press of the United States
under Jewish instigation a vilification of Poland whose sole crime was that
she wished to save herself from the Jews. But whenever a hand has been raised
to prevent the Jews overrunning the people and secretly securing the control
of the major instruments of life, the Jews have raised the cry of
"misrepresentation." They never meet the question outright. False denials,
pleas for sympathy, and a base campaign for smearing others with their own
crimes, and an unworthy attempt to link others with them in their fall,
constitute their whole method of defense. And a concentration of all the
political, economic, legal weapons at their command are flung at the head of
the outspoken critic of the Jew who persists in defending his right to
national existence free from Jewish infiltration, influence and control.
The policy of "misrepresentation" succeeds because there is
a feeling strongly entrenched in Gentiles that somehow the Jews are the
"chosen people," and that it is dangerous to oppose them in anything whoever
opposes the Jew is damned. "The fear of the Jews" is a very real element in
life. It is just as real among the Jews as among non-Jews. The Jew himself is
bound in fear to his people, and he exercises the fear of the curse throughout
the sphere of religion" I will curse them that curse thee." It remains to be
proved; however, that opposition to the destructive tendencies of Jewish
influences all along the principal avenues of life is a "cursing" of the Jews.
If the Jews were really Old Testament people (which they
are not), if they were really conscious of a "mission" for the blessing of all
the nations, the very things in which they offend would automatically
disappear. If the Jew is being "attacked" it is not because he is a Jew but
because he is the source and life of certain tendencies and influences, which,
if they are not checked, mean the destruction of moral society. The only real
misrepresentation in society is regarded as the Jews' privilege.
DISRAELI PORTRAYS THE: JEWS
Benjamin Disraeli, Earl of Beaconsfield and Prime Minister
of Great Britain, was a Jew and gloried in it. He wrote many books, in a
number of which he discussed his people in an effort to set them in a proper
light. The British Government was not then so Jewish as it has since become,
and Disraeli was easily one of the greatest figures in it. In his book, "Coningsby,"
there appears a Jewish character named Sidonia, in whose personality and
through whose utterances; Disraeli sought to present the Jew, as he would like
the world to see him.
Yet here is the International Jew, full dress; he is the
Protocolist, too, wrapped in mystery, a man whose fingers sweep all the
strings of human motive, and who controls the chief of the brutal forces
Money.
If a non-Jew had written a Sidonia, so truthfully showing
the racial history and characteristics of the Jews, he would have been
subjected to that terrific pressure which the Jews apply to every truth teller
about themselves.
Disraeli caused his Jewish hero, Sidonia, to remark: "The
world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those
who are not behind the scenes," and even more illuminating lines by Disraeli
which half compel the thought that, after all, he was writing to warn the
world of Jewish ambition for power:
"You never observe a great intellectual movement in Europe
in which the Jews do not greatly participate. The first Jesuits were Jews.
That mysterious Russian Diplomacy which so alarms Western Europe is organized
and principally carried on by Jews. That mighty revolution which is at this
moment preparing in Germany, and which will be, in fact, a second and greater
Reformation, and of which so little is yet known in England, is entirely
developing under the auspices of Jews."
Just how the Jews work to break down the established order
of things, by means of ideas, as the Protocols claim, is shown in a
conversation of Sidonia: "The Tories lose an important election at a critical
moment; 'tis the Jews come forward to vote against them. The Church is alarmed
at the scheme of a latitudinarian university, and learns with relief that
funds are not forthcoming for its establishment; a Jew immediately advances
and endows it."
If these words had been written by a non-Jew, the cry of
"anti-Semitism" would ring through the land. Yet Sidonia adds: "And every
generation they (the Jews) must become more powerful and dangerous to the
society that is hostile to them."
"Latitudinarianism" is the doctrine of the Protocols in a
word. It is the breakup by means of a welter of so-called "liberal" ideas,
which construct nothing, themselves, but have the power to destroy the
established order.
Several generations have passed since Disraeli's words were
written. The Jew still regards every form of non-Jewish society as hostile to
him. They have become more powerful and more dangerous. Those who would
measure the danger look around!
The Jew says that the Protocols are inventions. Is Benjamin
Disraeli an invention? Was this Jewish Prime Minister of Great Britain
misrepresenting his people? He showed that in Russia, the very country where
the Jews of his time complained they were least free, the Jews were in
control. He showed that the Jews knew the technique of revolution, foretelling
in his book the revolution that shortly broke out in Germany. How did he
foreknow it? Because that revolution was developing under the auspices of
Jews, and, though it was then true that "so little is yet known in England,"
Disraeli the Jew knew it, and knew it to be Jewish in origin and development
and purpose. One point is clear; Disraeli told the truth. He presented his
people before the world with correctness. He described Jewish power, Jewish
purpose and Jewish method with a certainty of touch that betokens more than
knowledge he shows racial sympathy and understanding. Why did he do it?
Disraeli the flamboyant, most oriental of courtiers and suave of politicians,
with a Seen financial ability was it that typically racial boastfulness, that
dangerous, aggressive conceit in which the Jew gives up most of his secrets?
No matter he is the one man who told the truth about the Jews without being
accused of "misrepresenting" the Jews.
"We will so wear out and exhaust the Gentiles by all this
that they will be compelled to offer us an international authority, which by
its position will enable us to absorb without disturbance all the governmental
forces of the world and thus form a super government.
"We must so direct the education of Gentile society that
its hands will drop in the weakness of discouragement in the face of any
undertaking where initiative is needed. The Fifth Protocol.
Chapter 5
THE JEWISH POLITICAL
PROGRAM
Theodor Herzl, one of the greatest of the Jews and founder
of modern Zionism, was perhaps the farthest seeing public exponent of the
philosophy of Jewish existence that modern generations have known. He was
never in doubt of the existence of the Jewish nation. He proclaimed its
existence on every occasion. He said, "We are a people One people."
He clearly saw that what he called the Jewish Question was
political. In his introduction to "The Jewish State" he says: "I believe that
I understand anti-Semitism, which is really a highly complex movement. I
consider it from a Jewish standpoint, yet without fear or hatred. I believe
that I can see what elements there are in it of vulgar sport, of common trade
jealousy, of inherited prejudice, of religious intolerance and also of
pretended defense. I think the Jewish Question is no more a social than a
religious one, notwithstanding that it sometimes takes these and other forms.
It is a national question, which can only be solved by making it a political
world question to be discussed and controlled by the civilized nations of the
world in council."
Not only did Herzl declare that the Jews formed a nation,
but in relating the action of this Jewish nation to the world Herzl
wrote: "When we sink, we become a revolutionary proletariat, the subordinate
officers of the revolutionary party; when we rise, there rises also our
terrible power of the purse."
This view, which appears to be the true view in that it is
the view which has been longest sustained in Jewish thought, is brought out
also by Lord Eustace Percy, and republished, apparently with approval, by the
Canadian "Jewish Chronicle." It will repay careful reading.
"Liberalism and Nationalism, with a flourish of trumpets,
threw open the doors of the ghetto and offered equal citizenship to the Jew.
The Jew passed out into the Western World, saw the power and the glory of it,
used it and enjoyed it, laid his hand indeed upon the nerve centers of its
civilization, guided, directed and exploited it, and then refused the offer.
Moreover and this is a remarkable thing the Europe of nationalism and
liberalism, of scientific government and democratic equality is more
intolerable to him than the old oppressions and persecutions of despotism.
"In a world of completely organized territorial
sovereignties he (the Jew) has only two possible cities of refuge: he must
either pull down the pillars of the whole national state system or he must
create a territorial sovereignty of his own. In this perhaps lies the
explanation both of Jewish Bolshevism and of Zionism, for at this moment
Eastern Jewry seems to hover uncertainly between the two. In Eastern Europe
Bolshevism and Zionism often seem to grow side by side, just as Jewish
influence molded Republican and Socialist thought throughout the nineteenth
century, down to the Young Turk revolution in Constantinople hardly more than
a decade ago not because the Jew cares for the positive side of radical
philosophy, not because he desires to be a partaker in Gentile nationalism or
Gentile democracy, but because no existing Gentile system of government is
ever anything but distasteful to him."
All that is true and Jewish thinkers of the more fearless
type always recognize it as true. The Jew against the Gentile scheme of
things. He is, when he gives his tendencies full sway, a Republican as against
the monarchy, a Socialist as against the republic, and a Bolshevist as against
socialism.
What are the causes of this disruptive activity? First, his
essential lack of democracy. Jewish nature is autocratic. Democracy is all
right for the rest of the world, but the Jew wherever he is found forms an
aristocracy of one sort or another. Democracy is merely a tool of a word which
Jewish agitators use to raise themselves to the ordinary level in places where
they are oppressed below it; but having reached the common level they
immediately make efforts for special privileges, as being entitled to them a
process which the late Peace Conference (Versailles: Ed.) will remain the most
startling example. The Jews today are the only people whose special and
extraordinary privileges are written into the world's Treaty of Peace.
(Original published in July, 1920: refer also to the present United Nations:
Editor).
In all the explanations of anti-Jewish feeling which modern
Jewish spokesmen make, these three alleged causes are commonly given these
three and no more: religious prejudice, economic jealousy, social antipathy.
Whether the Jew knows it or not, every Gentile knows that on his side of the
Jewish Question no religious prejudice exists. Economic jealousy may exist, at
least to this extent, that his uniform success has exposed the Jew to much
scrutiny. The finances of the world are in control of Jews; their decisions
and their devices are themselves our economic law.
Economic jealousy may explain some of the anti-Jewish
feeling; it cannot account for the presence of the Jewish Question except, as
the hidden causes of Jewish financial success may become a minor element of
the larger problem. And as for social antipathy there are many more
undesirable Gentiles in the world than there are undesirable Jews, for the
simple reason that there are many more Gentiles.
None of the Jewish spokesmen mention the political cause,
or if they come within suggestive distance of it, they limit it and localize
it. The political element inheres in the fact that the Jews form a nation in
the midst of the nations. It is not the fact that the Jews remain a nation in
the midst of the nations; it is the USE made of that inescapable status, which
the world has found to be reprehensible. The nations have tried to reduce the
Jews to unity with themselves, but destiny seems to have marked them out to
continuous nationhood. Both the Jews and the World will have to accept that
fact. The Jewish world program, and the political basis of anti-Jewish feeling
which that program creates, is exposed by Jewish cosmopolitanism with regard
to the world, and by Jewish nationalistic integrity with regard to themselves.
JEWISH NATIONALISM AND THE PROTOCOLS
No one now pretends to deny, except a few spokesmen who
really do not rule the thought of the Jews but are set forth for the sole
benefit of influencing Gentile thought, that the socially and economically
disruptive elements abroad in the world today are not only manned but also
monied by Jewish interests.
For a long time this fact was held in suspense owing to the
vigorous denial of the Jews and the lack of information on the part of those
agencies of publicity to which the public looked for its information. But now
the facts are coming forth. Herzl's words are being proved to be true "when we
sink, we become a revolutionary proletariat, the subordinate officers of the
revolutionary party." These words were first published in English in 1896!
Just now these tendencies are working in two directions!
One for the tearing down of the Gentile states all over the world, the other
for the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. The latter project
engaged the attention of the whole world. The Zionists make a great deal of
noise about Palestine, but it can scarcely be designated as more than an
unusually ambitious colonization scheme. The Jewish home idea so sedulously
cultivated is a very useful smokescreen for the confiscation of the
immeasurable sources of mineral and oil wealth. It is also serving as a very
useful public screen for the carrying on of secret activities.
International Jews, the controllers of the world's
governmental and financial power, may meet anywhere, at any time, in war or
peace time, and by giving out that they are only considering the ways and
means of opening up Palestine to the Jews, they easily escape the suspicion of
being together on any other business.
Though Jewish nationalism exists, its enshrinement in a
state to be set up in Palestine is not the project that is engaging the whole
Jewish nation. The Jews will not move into Palestine just yet; they will not
move in at all merely because of the Zionist movement. Quite another motive
will be the cause of the exodus out of the Gentile nations, when the time for
that exodus fully comes.
The world has long suspected at first only a few, then the
secret departments of the governments, next the intellectuals among the
people, now more and more the common people themselves that not only are the
Jews a nation distinct from all other nations and mysteriously unable to sink
their nationality by any means they or the world may adopt to this end, but
that they also constitute a STATE; that they are nationally conscious, not
only, but consciously united for a common defense for a common purpose. Revert
to Herzl's definition of the Jewish nation as held together by a common enemy,
and then reflect that this common enemy is the Gentile world! Does this people
which knows itself to be a nation remain loosely unorganized in the face of
that fact? It would hardly be like Jewish astuteness in other fields! The
interest of the Protocols is their bearing on the questions: Have the Jews an
organized world system? What is its policy? How is it being worked?
These questions all receive full attention in the
Protocols. Whosoever was the mind that conceived them possessed a knowledge of
human nature, of history and of statecraft, which is dazzling in its brilliant
completeness, and terrible in the objects to which it turns its powers. If,
indeed, one mind alone conceived them. It is too terribly real for fiction,
too well sustained for speculation, too deep in its knowledge of the secret
springs of life for forgery. Jewish attacks upon it thus far make much of the
fact that it came out of Russia. That is hardly true. It came by way of
Russia.
The internal evidence makes it clear that the Protocols
were not written by a Russian, nor originally in the Russian language, nor
under the influence of Russian conditions, but they found their way to Russia
and were first published there about 1905 by a Professor Nilus, who attempted
to interpret the Protocols by events then going forward in Russia. They have
been found by diplomatic officers in manuscript in all parts of the world.
Wherever Jewish power is able to do so, it has suppressed
them, sometimes under the extreme penalty.
Their persistence is a fact which challenges the mind Sheer
lies do not live long, their power soon dies. The Protocols are more alive
than ever. They have penetrated higher places than ever before. They have
compelled a more serious attitude to them than ever before. The Protocols are
a World Program there is no doubt anywhere of that whose program is stated
within the articles themselves. But as for outer confirmation, which would be
the more valuable a signature, or six signatures, or twenty signatures, or a
50year unbroken line of effort fulfilling that program?
The point of interest for this and other countries is not t
at a "criminal or a madman" conceived such a program but that, when conceived,
this program found means of getting itself fulfilled in its most important
particulars. The document is comparatively unimportant; the conditions to
which it calls attention are of a very high degree of importance.
"When we become rulers we shall regard as undesirable the
existence of any religion except our own, proclaiming One God with Whom our
fate is tied as The Chosen People, and by Whom our fate has been made one with
the fate of the world. For this reason we must destroy all other religions. If
thereby should emerge contemporary atheists, then, as a transition step, this
will not interfere with our aims.
The Fourteenth Protocol. "A world coalition of Gentiles
could cope with us temporarily, but we are assured against this by roots of
dissension among them so deep that they cannot be torn out. We have created
antagonism between the personal and national interests of the Gentiles by
arousing religious and race hatreds, which we have nourished in their hearts
for twenty centuries. " The Fifth Protocol.
Chapter 6
AN INTRODUCTION TO THE
"JEWISH PROTOCOLS"
The documents most frequently mentioned by those who are
interested in the theory of Jewish World Power rather than in the actual
operation of that power in the world today, are those 24 documents known as
"The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion."
The Protocols have attracted much attention in Europe,
having been the center of an important storm of opinion in England, but
discussion of them in the United States has been limited.
Who it was that first entitled these documents with the
name of the "Elders of Zion" is not known. It would be possible without
serious mutilation of the documents to remove all hint of Jewish authorship,
and yet retain all the main points of the most comprehensive program for world
subjugation that has ever come to public knowledge.
Yet to eliminate all hint of Jewish authorship would be to
bring out a number of contradictions, which do not exist in the Protocols in
their present form. The purpose of the plan revealed in the Protocols is to
undermine all authority in order that a new authority in the form of an
autocracy may be set up. Such a plan would not emanate from a ruling class,
which already possessed authority, although it might emanate from anarchists.
But anarchists do not avow autocracy as the ultimate condition they seek. The
authors might be conceived as a company of French Subversives such as existed
at the time of the French Revolution and had the infamous Duc d' Orleans as
their leader, but this would involve a contradiction between the fact that
those Subversives have passed away, and the fact that the program announced in
these Protocols is being steadily carried out, not only in France, but
throughout Europe, and very noticeably in the United States.
In their present form, which bears evidence of being their
original form, there is no contradiction. The allegation of Jewish authorship
seems essential to the consistency of the plan.
If these documents were the forgeries, which Jewish
apologists claim them to be, the forgers would probably have taken pains to
make Jewish authorship so clear that their anti-Semitic purpose could easily
have been detected. But only twice is the term "Jew" used in them. After one
has read further than the average reader usually cares to go into such
matters, one comes upon the plans for the establishment of the World Autocrat,
and only then is it made clear of what lineage he is to be.
But all through the documents there is left no doubt as to
the people against whom the plan is aimed. It is not aimed against aristocracy
as such. It is not aimed against capital as such. Very definite provisions are
made for the enlistment of aristocracy, capital and government for the
execution of the plan. It is aimed against the people of the world who are
called "Gentiles." It is the frequent mention of "Gentiles" that really
decides the purpose of the documents. Most of the destructive type of
"liberal" plans aims at the enlistment of the people as helpers; this plan
aims at the degeneration of the people in order that they may be reduced to
confusion of mind and thus manipulated. Popular movements of a "liberal" kind
are to be encouraged, all the disruptive philosophies in religion, economics,
politics and domestic life are to be sown and watered, for the purpose of so
disintegrating social solidarity and a definite plan, herein set forth, may be
put through without notice, and the people then molded to it when the fallacy
of these philosophies is shown.
The formula of speech is not, "We Jews will do this," but
"The Gentiles will be made to think and do these things." With the exception
of a few instances in the closing Protocols, the only distinctive racial term
used is "Gentiles."
RACIAL DIVERGENCES
To illustrate: the first indication of this kind comes in
the First Protocol in this way:
"The great qualities of the people honesty and frankness
are essentially vices in politics, because they dethrone more surely and more
certainly than does the strongest enemy. These qualities are attributes of
Gentile rule; we certainly must not be guided by them."
And again: "On the ruins of the hereditary aristocracy of
the Gentiles we have set up the aristocracy of our educated class, and over
all the aristocracy of money. We have established the basis of this new
aristocracy on the basis of riches, which we control, and on the science
guided by our wise men."
Again: "We will force up wages, which, however, will be of
no benefit to workers, for we at the same time will cause a rise in prices of
prime necessities, pretending that this is due to the decline of agriculture
and of cattle raising. We will also artfully and deeply undermine the sources
of production by instilling in the workmen ideas of anarchy, and encourage
them in the use of alcohol, at the same time taking measures to drive all the
intellectual forces of the Gentiles from the land." (A forger with
anti-Semitic malice might have written this any time within the last five
years, but these words were in print as early as 1905, a copy having been in
the British Museum since 1906, and they were circulated in Russia a number of
years prior.) The above point continues: "That the true situation shall not be
noticed by the Gentiles prematurely, we will mask it by a pretended effort to
serve the working classes and promote great economic principles, for which an
active propaganda will be carried on through our economic theories".
These quotations will illustrate the style of the Protocols
in making references to the parties involved. It is "we" for the writers, and
"Gentiles" for those who are being written about. This is brought out very
clearly in the Fourteenth Protocol: "In this divergence between the Gentiles
and ourselves in ability to think and reason is to be seen clearly the seal of
our election as the chosen people, as higher human beings, in contrast with
the Gentiles who have merely instinctive and animal minds. They observe, but
they do not foresee, and they invent nothing (except perhaps material things).
It is clear from this that nature herself predestined us to rule and guide the
world."
This, of course, has been the Jewish method of dividing
humanity from the earliest times. The world was only Jew and Gentile; all that
was not Jew was Gentile. The use of the word Jew may be illustrated by this
passage from the Eighth section: "For the time being, until it will be safe to
give responsible government positions to our brother Jews, we shall entrust
them to people whose past and whose characters are such that there is an abyss
between them and the people."
This is the practice known as using "Gentile fronts" which
is extensively practiced in the financial world today in order to cover up the
evidences of Jewish control. How much progress has been made since these words
were written is indicated by the party convention at San Francisco when the
name of Judge Brandeis was proposed for President. It is reasonably to be
expected that the public mind will be made more and more familiar with the
idea of Jewish occupancy, which will be really a short step from the present
degree of influence, which the Jews exercise of the highest office in the
government. There is no function of the American Presidency in which the Jews
have not already secretly assisted in a very important degree. Actual
occupancy of the office is not necessary to enhance their power, but to
promote certain things, which parallel very closely the plans, outlined in the
Protocols.
Another point, which the reader of the Protocols will
notice, is that the tone of exhortation is entirely absent from these
documents. They are not propaganda. They are not efforts to stimulate the
ambitions or activity of those to whom they are addressed. They are as cool as
a legal paper and as matter of fact as a table of statistics. There is none of
the "Let us rise, my brothers" stuff about them. There is no "Down with the
Gentiles" hysteria. These Protocols, if indeed they were made by Jews and
confined to Jews, or if they do contain principles of a Jewish World Program,
were certainly not intended for the firebrands but for the carefully prepared
and tested initiates of the higher groups.
PROBLEM OF ORIGIN
Jewish apologists have asked, "Is it conceivable that if
there were such a world program on the part of the Jews, they would reduce it
to writing and publish it?" But there is no evidence that these Protocols were
ever uttered otherwise than in spoken words by those who put them forth. The
Protocols as we have them are apparently the notes of lectures, which were
made by someone who heard them. Some of them are lengthy; some of them are
brief. The assertion which has always been made in connection with the
Protocols since they have become known is that they are the notes of lectures
delivered to Jewish students somewhere in France or Switzerland. The attempt
to make them appear to be of Russian origin is absolutely forestalled by the
point of view, the references to the times and certain grammatical
indications. The tone certainly fits the supposition that they were originally
lectures given to students, for their purpose is clearly not to get a program
accepted but to give information concerning a program which is represented as
being already in process of fulfill meet. There is no invitation to join
forces or to offer opinions. Indeed it is specifically announced that neither
discussion nor opinions are desired. ("While preaching liberalism to the
Gentiles, we shall hold our own people and our own agents in unquestioning
obedience." "The scheme of administration must emanate from a single brain....
Therefore, we may know the plan of action, but we must not discuss it, lest we
destroy its unique character. The inspired work of our leader therefore must
not be thrown before a crowd to be torn to pieces, or even before a limited
group.")
Moreover, taking the Protocols at their face value, it is
evident that the program outlined in these lectures eras not a new one at the
time the lectures were given. There is no evidence of its being of recent
arrangement. There is almost the tone of a tradition, or a religion, in it
all, as if it had been handed down from generation to generation through the
medium of specially trusted and initiated men. There is no note of new
discovery or fresh enthusiasm in it, but the certitude and calmness of facts
long known and policies long confirmed by experiment.
The point of age of the program is touched upon at least
twice in the Protocols themselves. In the First Protocol this paragraph
appears: "Already in ancient times we were the first to shout the words,
'Liberty, Equality, Fraternity,' among the people. These words have been
repeated many times since by unconscious poll parrots, flocking from all sides
to this bait, with which they have ruined the prosperity of the world and true
personal freedom.... The presumably clever and intelligent Gentiles did not
understand the symbolism of the uttered words; did not observe their
contradiction in meaning; did not notice that in nature there is no equality."
The other reference to the program finality is found in the
Thirteenth Protocol: "Questions of policy, however, are permitted to no one
except those who have originated the policy and have directed it for many
centuries."
Can this be a reference to a secret Jewish Sanhedrin, self
perpetuating within a certain Jewish caste from generation to generation?
Again, it must be said that the originators and directors here referred to
cannot be at present any ruling caste, for all that the program contemplates
is directly opposed to the interests of such a caste. It cannot refer to any
national aristocratic group, like the Junkers of Germany, for the methods,
which are proposed, are the very ones, which would render powerless such a
group. It cannot refer to any but a people who have no open government, who
have everything to gain and nothing to lose, and who can keep themselves
intact amid a crumbling, world. There is only one group that answers that
description.
GENTILE STUPIDITY
The criticisms which these Protocols pass upon the Gentiles
for their stupidity are just. It is impossible to disagree with a single item
in the Protocol's description of Gentile mentality and venality. Even the most
astute of the Gentile thinkers have been fooled into receiving as the motions
of progress what has only been insinuated into the common human mind by the
most insidious systems of propaganda. It is true that here and there a thinker
has arisen to say that science so-called was not science at all. It is true
that here and there a thinker has arisen to say that the so-called economic
laws both of conservatives and radicals were not laws at all, but artificial
inventions. It is true that occasionally a keen observer has asserted that the
recent debauch of luxury and extravagance was not due to the natural impulses
of the people at all, but was systematically stimulated, foisted upon them by
design. It is true that a few have discerned that more than half of what
passes for "public opinion" is merely hired applause and booing and has never
impressed the public mind.
But even with these clues here and there, for the most part
disregarded, there has never been enough continuity and collaboration between
those who were awake, to follow all the clues to their source. The chief
explanation of the hold which the Protocols have had on many of the leading
statesmen of the world for several decades is that they explain whence all the
false influences come and what their purpose is. It is now time for the people
to know. Whether the Protocols are judged as proving anything concerning the
Jews or not, they constitute an education in the way the masses are turned
about like sheep by influences which they do not understand. It is certain
that once the principles of the Protocols are known widely and understood by
the people, the criticism which they now rightly make of the Gentile mind will
no longer hold good.
DIVIDE AND RULE
Is there likelihood of the program of the Protocols being
carried through to success?
The program is successful already. In many of its most
important phases it is already a reality. But this need not cause alarm, for
the chief weapon to be used against such a program, both in its completed and
uncompleted parts, is clear publicity. Let the people know. Arousing the
people, alarming the people, appealing to the passions of the people is the
method of the plan outlined in the Protocols. The antidote is merely
ENLIGHTENING tube people.
The Protocols are found upon analysis to contain four main
divisions. These are not marked in the structure of the documents but in the
thought. There is a fifth, if the object of it all is included, but this
object is assumed throughout the Protocols, being only here and there defined
in terms. And the four main divisions are great trunks from which there are
numerous branches.
There is first what is alleged to be the Jewish Conception
of human nature, by which is meant Gentile nature. Secondly, there is the
account of what has already been accomplished in the realization of the
program things already done. Thirdly, there is a complete instruction in the
methods to be used to get the program still further fulfilled. Fourth, the
Protocols contain in detail some of the achievements, which, at the time these
words were uttered, were yet to be made. Some of these desired things have
been achieved in the meantime; for it should be borne in mind that between
1905 and the present time there have been set in motion many powerful
influences to attain certain ends. The achievement to be made was the break up
of Gentile solidarity and strength, expedited, of course, by the great wars in
Europe. The method expounded is one of disintegration. Break up the people
into parties and sects. Sow abroad the most promising and utopian of ideas and
you will do two things: you will always find a group to cling to each idea you
throw out; and you will find this partisanship dividing and estranging the
various groups. The authors of the Protocols show in detail how this is to be
done. Not one idea, but a mass of ideas are to be thrown out, and there is to
be no unity among them. The purpose is not to get the people thinking one
thing, but to think so diversely about so many different things that there
will be no unity among them. The result of this will be vast disunity, vast
unrest and that is the result aimed at. When once the solidarity of Gentile
society is broken up and the name "Gentile society" is perfectly correct, for
human society is overwhelmingly Gentile then this solid wedge of another idea
which is not at all affected by the prevailing confusion can make its way
unsuspected to the place of control. It is well enough known that a body of 20
trained police or soldiers can accomplish more than a disordered mob of a
thousand persons. So the minority initiated into the plan can do more with a
nation or a world broken into a thousand antagonistic parties, than any of the
parties could do. "Divide and rule" is the motto of the Protocols.
Take for illustration these passages: This from the First
Protocol: "Political freedom is an idea, not a fact. It is necessary to know
how to apply this idea when there is need of a clever bait to gain the support
of the people for one's party, if such a party has undertaken to defeat
another party already in power. This task is made easier if the opponent has
himself been infected by principles of freedom or so-called liberalism, and
for the sake of the idea will yield some of his power."
Consider this from the Fifth Protocol: "To obtain control
over public opinion, it is first necessary to confuse it by the expression
from various sides of so many conflicting opinions.... this is the first
secret. The second secret consists in so increasing and intensifying the
shortcomings of the people in their habits, passions and mode of living that
no one will be able to collect himself in the chaos, and, consequently, people
will lose all their mutual understanding. This measure will serve us also in
breeding disagreement in all parties, in disintegrating all those collective
forces which are still unwilling to submit to us and in discouraging all
personal initiative which can in any way interfere with our undertaking."
And this from the Thirteenth Protocol: "...and you may also
notice that we seek approval, not for our acts, but for our words uttered in
regard to one or another question. We always announce publicly that we are
guided in all our measures by the hope and the conviction that we are serving
the general good."
PROTOCOLS CLAIM PARTIAL FULFILLMENT
Besides the things they look forward to doing, the
Protocols announce the things they are doing and have done. Looking about the
world today it is possible to see both the established conditions and the
strong tendencies to which the Protocols elude the terrible completeness of
the World Plan which they disclose. A few general quotations will serve to
illustrate the element of present achievement in the assertions of these
documents, and in order that the point may be made clear to the reader the key
words will be emphasized.
Take this from Protocol Nine: "In reality there are no
obstacles before us. Our super government has such an extralegal status that
it may be called by the energetic and strong word dictatorship. I can
conscientiously say that, at the present time, we are the lawmakers. We create
courts and jurisprudence. We rule with a strong will because we hold in our
hands the remains of a once strong party, now subjugated by us."
And this from the Eighth Protocol: "We will surround our
government with a whole world of economists. It is for this reason that the
science of economics is the chief subject of instruction taught by the Jews.
We shall be surrounded by a whole galaxy of bankers, industrialists,
capitalists, and especially by millionaires because, actually, everything will
be decided by an appeal to figures."
These are strong claims, but not too strong for the facts
that can be marshalled to illustrate them. They are, however, but an
introduction to further claims that are made and equally paralleled by the
facts. All through the Protocols, as in this quotation from the Eighth, the
preeminence of the Jews in teaching political economy is insisted upon, and
the facts bear that out. They are the chief authors of those vagaries, which
lead the mob after economic impossibilities, and they are also the chief
teachers of political economy in our universities, the chief authors of those
popular textbooks in the subject, which hold the conservative classes to the
fiction that economic theories are economic laws. The idea, the theory, as
instruments of social disintegration are common to both the university Jew and
the Bolshevik Jew. When all this is shown in detail, public opinion upon the
importance of academic and radical economics may undergo a change.
And, as claimed in the quotation just given from the Ninth
Protocol, the Jewish world power does today constitute a super government. It
is the Protocol's own word, and none is more fitting. No nation can get all
that it wants, but the Jewish World Power can get all that it wants, even
though its demands exceed Gentile equality. "We are the lawmakers," say the
Protocols, and Jewish influences have been lawmakers in a greater degree than
any but the specialists realize. In the past decades Jewish international rule
has quite dominated the world. Wherever Jewish tendencies are permitted to
work unhindered, the result is not "Americanization," nor "Anglicization" nor
any other distinctive nationalism, but a strong and ruling reversion back to
essential "Judaization."
CONQUEST OF RELIGION AND PRESS
This from the Seventeenth Protocol will be of considerable
interest, perhaps, to those clergymen who are laboring with Jewish rabbis to
bring about some kind of religious union: "We have taken good care long ago to
discredit the Gentile clergy and thereby to destroy their mission, which at
present might hamper us considerably. Their influence over the people
diminishes daily. Freedom of conscience has been proclaimed everywhere.
Consequently it is only a question of time when the complete crash of the
Christian religion will occur."
A curious paragraph in this Protocol claims for the Jewish
race a particular skill in the art of insult: "Our contemporary Press will
expose governmental and religious affairs and the incapacity of the Gentiles,
always using expressions so derogatory as to approach insult, the faculty of
employment which is so well known to our race."
And this from the Fifteenth Protocol: "Under our influence
the execution of the laws of the Gentiles is reduced to a minimum. Respect for
the law is undermined by the liberal interpretation we have introduced in this
sphere. The courts decide as we dictate, even in the most important cases in
which are involved fundamental principles or political issues, viewing them in
the light in which we present them to the Gentile administration through
agents with whom we have apparently nothing in common, through newspaper
opinion and other avenues."
Claims of control of the Press are numerous; here are
emphatic statements from the Fourteenth Protocol: "In countries called
advanced, we have created a senseless, filthy and disgusting literature. For a
short time after our entrance into power we shall encourage its existence so
that it may show in greater relief the contrast between it and the written and
spoken announcements which will emanate from Us."
And in the Twelfth Protocol: "We have attained this (Press
control) at the present time to the extent that all news is received through
several agencies in which it is centralized from all parts of the world. These
agencies will then be to all intents and purposes our own institutions and
will publish only that which we permit."
This from the Seventh Protocol bears on the same
subject: "We must force the Gentile governments to adopt measures which will
promote our broadly conceived plan, already approaching its triumphant goal,
by bringing to bear the pressure of stimulated public opinion, which has been
organized by us with the help of the so-called 'great power' of the Press.
With a few exceptions not worth considering, it is already in our hands."
To resume the Twelfth Protocol: "If we have already managed
to dominate the mind of Gentile society to such a point that almost all see
world affairs through the colored lenses of the spectacles which we place
before their eyes, and to now there is not one government with barriers
erected against our access to that which by Gentile stupidity is called state
secrets, what then will it be when we are the recognized masters of the world
in the person of our universal ruler?"
The Jewish nation is the only nation that possesses the
secrets of all the rest. The fact that they can get whatever they want when
they want it is the important point as many a secret paper could testify if it
could talk, and as many a custodian of secret papers could tell if he would.
The real secret diplomacy of the world is that which hands over the world's
so-called secrets to a few men who are members of one race; there is no
government in the world so completely at their service as our own at present.
NOTE ON THE DISPERSAL
The Protocols do not regard the dispersal of the Jews
abroad upon the face of the earth as a calamity, but as a providential
arrangement by which the World Plan can be the more easily executed, as see
these words of the Eleventh Protocol.
"God gave us, His Chosen People, as a blessing, the
dispersal, and this which has appeared to all to be our weakness has been our
whole strength. It has now brought us to the threshold of universal rule."
The claims to accomplishment which are put forth in the
Ninth Protocol would be too massive for words were they not too massive for
concrete realization, but there is a point where the word and the actuality
meet and tally: "In order not to destroy prematurely the Gentile institutions,
we hove laid our efficient hands on them, and rasped the springs of their
mechanism. They were formerly in strict and just order, but we have replaced
them with a liberal disorganized and arbitrary administration. We have
tampered with jurisprudence, the franchise, the press, freedom of the person,
and, most important of all, education and culture, the corner stone of free
existence.
"We hove misled, stupefied and demoralized the youth of the
Gentiles by means of education in principles and theories patently false to
us, but which we have inspired. Above existing laws, without actual change but
by distorting them through contradictory interpretations, we have created
something stupendous in the way of results."
Everyone knows that, in spite of the fact that the air was
never as full of theories of liberty and wild declarations of "rights," there
has been a steady curtailment of "personal freedom." Instead of being
socialized, the people, under a cover of socialistic phrases, are being
brought under an unaccustomed bondage to the state; laws of every kind are
hedging upon the harmless liberties of the people. A steady tendency toward
systematization, every phase of the tendency based upon some very learnedly
stated "principle," has set in, and curiously enough, when the investigator
pursues his way to the authoritative center of these movements for the
regulation of the people's life, he finds Jews in power!
SPLITTING SOCIETY BY "IDEAS"
The method by which the Protocols work for the breakdown of
society is evident. An understanding of the method is necessary if one is to
find the meaning of the currents and crosscurrents, which make so hopeless a
hodgepodge of the present times. People, who are confused and discouraged by
the various voices and discordant theories of today, each seeming to be
plausible and promising, may find a clear clue to the value of the voices and
the meaning of the theories if they understand that their confusion and
discouragement comprise the very objective, which is sought. The uncertainty,
hesitation, hopelessness, fear; the eagerness with which every promising plan
and offered solution is grasped these are the very reactions which the program
outlined in the Protocols aims to produce. The condition is proof of the
efficacy of the program.
It is a method that takes time, and the Protocols declare
that it has taken time, indeed centuries. Students of the matter find the
identical program of the Protocols, announced and operated by the Jewish race,
from the first century onward.
It has taken 1900 years to bring Europe to its present
degree of subjugation violent subjugation in some countries, political
subjugation in some, economic subjugation in all but in America the same
program, with almost the same degree of success, has only required about 50
years! The center of Jewish power, the principal sponsors of the Jewish
program, are resident in America, and the leverage which was used at the Peace
Conferences to fasten Jewish power more securely upon Europe, was American
leverage exercised at the behest of the strong Jewish pressure which was
brought from the United States for that purpose. And these activities did not
end with the Peace Conference.
The whole method of the Protocols may be described in one
word, Disintegration. The undoing of what has been done, the creation of a
long and hopeless interim in which attempts at reconstruction shall be
baffled, and the gradual wearing down of public opinion and public confidence,
until those who stand outside the created chaos shall insert their strong,
calm hand to seize control that is the whole method of procedure.
The Protocols distinctly declare that it is by means of the
set of ideas, which cluster around "democracy," that their first victory over
public opinion was obtained. The idea is the weapon. And to be a weapon it
must be an idea at variance with the natural trend of life. It must be a
theory opposed to the facts of life. And no theory so opposed can be expected
to take root and become the ruling factor, unless it appeals to the mind as
reasonable, inspiring and good. The Truth frequently seems unreasonable; the
Truth frequently is depressing; the Truth sometimes seems to be evil; but it
has this eternal advantage, it is the Truth, and what is built thereon neither
brings nor yields to confusion. This first step does not give the control of
public opinion, but leads up to it. It is worthy to note that it is this
sowing of "the poison of liberalism," as the Protocols name it, which comes
first in order in those documents. Then, following upon that, the Protocols
say: "To obtain control over public opinion it is first necessary to confuse
it."
Truth is one and cannot be confused, but this false,
appealing liberalism which has been sown broadcast, and which is ripening
faster under Jewish nurture in America than ever it did in Europe, is easily
confused because it is not truth. It is error, and error has a thousand forms.
Take a nation, a party, a city, an association in which "the poison of
liberalism" has been sown, and you can split that up into as many factions as
there are individuals simply by throwing among them certain modifications of
the original idea. That is a piece of strategy well known to the forces that
invisibly control mass thought. Theodor Herzl, the arch Jew, a man whose
vision was wider than any contemporary statesman's and whose program
paralleled the Protocols, knew this many years ago when he said that the
Zionist (cryptic for "Jewish") state would come before the Socialist state
could come; he knew with what endless divisions the "liberalism" which he and
his predecessors had planted would be shackled and crippled.
The process of which all Gentiles have been the victims,
but never the Jews never the Jews! Is just this: First, to create an ideal of
"broadmindedness." That is the phrase, which appears in every Jewish
remonstrance against public mention of the Jew and his alleged World Program:
"We thought you were too broadminded a man to express such thoughts." It is a
sort of key word, indicative of the state of mind in which it is desired that
the Gentiles be kept. It is a state of flabby tolerance. A state of mind which
mouths meaningless phrases about Liberty, phrases which act as an opiate on
the mind and conscience and which allow all sorts of things to be done under
cover.
The phrase, the slogan, is a very dependable Jewish weapon.
("In all times people have accepted words for acts." Protocol 5.) The reality
behind the phrase the Protocols frankly admit to be nonexistent.
Men are born believers. For a time they may believe in
"broadmindedness" and under the terrific social pressure that has been set up
in its favor they will openly espouse it. But it is too shallow to satisfy any
growing roots of life. They must believe, deeply, something. For proof of
this, notice the undeniable strength of the negative beliefs, which are held
by men who fancy that they believe nothing. Therefore, some who are highly
endowed with independence of spirit root down into those prohibited matters,
which at some point touch Jewish concerns these are the "narrow" men. But
others find it more convenient to cultivate those departments which promise a
highway whereon there Shall be no clashes of vital opinion, no chance of the
charge of "intolerance"; in short they transfer all their contemplative powers
to the active life; even as it is written in the Protocols" To divert Gentile
thought and observation, interest must be deflected to industry and commerce."
It is just this Deflection to the materialistic base that offers the
Protocolists, and similarly Jewish propagandists, their best hold. "Broad
mindedness" in leaving vital matters severely alone descends quickly into
material mindedness. Within this lower sphere all the discord which distresses
the world today is to be found.
It means, as everything about us shouts, the prostitution
of service to profits and the eventual disappearance of the profits: It means
that the high art of management degenerates into exploitation. It means
reckless confusion among the managers and dangerous unrest among the
workingmen. But it means something worse: it means the splitting up of Gentile
society. Not a division between "Capital" and "Labor," but the division
between the Gentile at both ends of the working scheme, as the Protocols
confirm: "To make it possible for liberty definitely to disintegrate and rein
Gentile society, industry must be placed on a speculative basis."
With Jewish capital at one end of the Gentile working
scheme putting the screws on the manufacturers, and with Jewish agitators and
disruptionists and subversives at the ether end of the Gentile working scheme
putting the screws on the workmen, we have a condition at which the world
managers of the Protocol program must be immensely satisfied.
See Protocol Nine: "We might fear the combined strength of
the Gentiles of vision with the blind strength of the masses, but we have
taken all measures against such a possible contingency by raising a wall of
mutual antagonism between these two forces. Thus, the blind force of the
masses remains our support. We and we alone, shall serve as their leaders.
Naturally, we will direct their energy to achieve our end."
The indication that they are highly satisfied is that they
are not only not doing anything to relieve the world situation, but are
apparently willing to have it made worse. The privations, which are scheduled
for it (unless Gentile flabbiness before the Jewish power, high and low,
receives a new backbone), will bring the United States to the verge, if not
across the very line, of Bolshevism. The Jews know the whole method of
artificial scarcity and high prices. It was practiced in the French Revolution
and in Russia. All the signs of it are in this country too.
It is not difficult to see the genealogy of the Jewish
ideas of liberalism from their origin to their latest effects upon Gentile
life. The confusion aimed at is here! Bewilderment characterizes the whole
mental climate of the people today. They do not know what to believe. First
one set of facts is given to them, then another. First one explanation of
conditions is given to them, and then another. The fact shortage is acute.
There is a whole market full of explanations that explain nothing, but only
deepen the cone fusion. The government itself seems to be hampered, and
whenever it starts on a line of investigation finds itself mysteriously
tangled up so that procedure is difficult. This governmental aspect is also
clearly set forth in the Protocols. Add to this the onslaught on the human
tendency toward religion, which is usually the last barrier to fall before
violence and robbery unashamed stalk forth.
To conclude this general view of the method, rather this
part of the method, the confusion itself, which all Jewish influences converge
to produce, it is expected to produce another more deeply helpless state. And
that state is Exhaustion. It needs no imagination to see what this means.
Exhaustion is today one of the conditions that menace the people. The war and
its strain began the exhaustion; the "peace" and its confusions have about
completed it. The people believe in little and expect less. Confidence is gone
Initiative is nearly gone. The failure of movements falsely heralded as
"people's movements" has gone far to make the people think that no people's
movement is possible.
So say the Protocols: "To wear everyone out by dissensions,
animosities, feuds, famine, inoculation of diseases, want, until the Gentiles
see no other way of escape except by an appeal to our money power." Protocol
10.
"We will so wear out anal exhaust the Gentiles by all this
that they will be compelled to offer us an international authority, which by
its position will enable us to absorb without disturbance all the governmental
forces of the world and thus form a super government We must so direct the
education of the Gentile Society that its hands will drop in the weakness of
discouragement in the face of any undertaking where initiative is needed."
Protocol
The Jews have never been worn out or exhausted. They have
never been nonplussed. This is the true psychic characteristic of those who
have a clue to the maze. It is the unknown that exhausts the mind, the
constant wandering around among tendencies and influences whose source is not
known and whose purpose is not understood. Walking in the dark is wearing
work. The Gentiles have been doing it for centuries. The others, having a
pretty accurate idea what it was all about, have not succumbed. Even
persecution is endurable if it is understandable, and the Jews of the world
have always known just where it fitted in the scheme of things. Gentiles have
suffered more from Jewish persecutions than have the Jews for after the
persecutions were over, the Gentile was as much in the dark as ever; whereas
Judaism simply took up again its century long march toward a goal in which it
implicitly believes, and which, some say who have a deep knowledge of Jewish
roots in the world and who, too, may be touched with exhaustion, they will
achieve. However this may be the revolution, which would be necessary to
unfasten the International Jewish system from its grip on the world, would
probably have to be just as radical as any attempts the Jews have made to
attain that grip. There are those who express serious doubts that the Gentiles
are competent to do it at all. Maybe not. Let them at least know who their
conquerors are.
"To each act of opposition we must be in a position to
respond by bringing on war through the neighbors of any country that dares to
oppose us, and if these neighbors should plan to stand collectively against
us, we must let loose a world war." The Seventh Protocol.
Chapter 7
HOW THE JEWS USE POWER
Two organizations, both of which are as notable for their
concealment as for their power, are the New York Kehillah and the American
Jewish Committee. The Kehillah is the most potent factor in the political life
of New York; it is the organization, which today wields so large an influence
on the rest of the world, which consciously issues a program, which on one
side is pro-Jewish, and on the other anti-Gentile. It is the central group,
the inner government, whose ruling is law and whose act is the official
expression of Jewish purpose. It offers a real and complete instance of a
government within a government in the midst of America's largest and
politically most powerful city, and it also constitutes the machine through
which pro-Jewish and anti-Gentile propaganda is operated and Jewish pressure
brought to bear against certain American ideas. That is to say, the Jewish
government of New York constitutes the essential part of the Jewish Government
of the United States.
The word "Kehillah' has the same meaning as "Kahal," which
signifies "community," "assembly" or government. It represents the Jewish form
of Government in dispersion. In the Babylonian captivity, in Eastern Europe
today, the Kahal is the power and protectorate to which the faithful Jew looks
for government and justice. The New York Kehillah is the largest and most
powerful union of Jews in the world; the center of Jewish world power has been
transferred to that city. What is the meaning of the heavy migration of Jews
all over the world toward New York in recent decades? It is to them what Rome
is to the Catholic and what Mecca is to the Moslem.
The Kehillah is a perfect answer to the deceptive statement
that the Jews are so divided among themselves as to render a concert of action
impossible. That is one of the statements made for Gentile consumption. All
experience shows, even to the most casual observer of Jewish activities, that
the capitalist and the Bolshevik, the rabbi and the union leader are all
united under the flag of Judah. Touch the conservative capitalist who is a
Jew, and the red communist who is also a Jew will spring to his defense. It
may be that sometimes they love each other less, but altogether they hate the
non-Jew more, and that is their common bond. The Kehillah is an alliance, more
offensive than defensive, against the "Gentiles."
It is a strange and impressive spectacle, which the
Kehillah presents, of a people of one racial origin, with a vivid belief in
itself and its future, disregarding internal differences, to combine privately
in a powerful organization for the racial, material and religious advancement
of its own race, to the exclusion of all others.
The American Jewish Committee came into being in 1906.
There had been a government investigation into the "White Slave Traffic," the
result of which was a direct set of public opinion into channels
uncomplimentary to the Jews, and a defensive movement was begun. The Kehillah
organized protests against the statement by General Bingham, and then police
commissioner of the City of New York, that 50 per cent of the crime in the
metropolis was committed by Jews. Very soon afterward, General Bingham
disappeared from public life, and a national magazine of power and influence,
which had embarked on a series of articles setting forth the government's
finding in the White Slave investigation was forced to discontinue after
printing the first article.
The Kehillah has mapped out New York just as the American
Jewish Committee has mapped the United States, and practically every Jew
belongs to one or more lodges, secret societies, unions, orders, committees
and federations. The list is a prodigious one. The purposes interlace and the
methods dovetail in such a manner as to bring every phase of American life not
only under the watchful eye, but under the swift and powerful action of
experienced compulsion upon public affairs.
At the meeting which organized the Kehillah a number of
sentiments were expressed which are worthy of consideration today, Judah L.
Magnes, then rabbi of Temple Emanuel, chairman of the meeting, set forth the
plan: "A central organization like that of the Jewish community of New York
City is necessary to create a Jewish public opinion," he said.
Rabbi Asher was loudly applauded when he said: "American
interests are one, Jewish interests are another thing."
The delegates at the first open meeting in 1906 represented
222 Jewish societies religious, political, industrial and communal. Just over
a year later the number of Jewish organizations under the jurisdiction of the
Kehillah aggregated 688, and in 1921 well over 1,000. When the aggressive
program of the Kehillah to make New York a Jewish city, and through New York
to make the United States a Jewish country, was announced some of the more
conservative Jews of New York were timorous. They did not expect that the
American people would stand for it. They thought the American people would
immediately understand what was afoot and oppose it. There were others who
doubted whether the same Kehillah authority could here be wielded over the
Jews as was wielded in the old country ghettoes. An official of the Kehillah
wrote: "There were those who doubted the ultimate success of this new venture
in Jewish organization. They based their lack of belief on the fact that no
governmental authority could possibly be secured; in other words, that the
Kehillah of New York could not hope to wield the same power, based on
governmental coercion, as the Kehillahs of the Old World."
There is much in this paragraph to indicate the status of
the Kehillah in Jewish life. Add to this fact that all the Jews who entered
America lived under the Kehillahs of the old world, whose power was based on
coercion, and the situation is simple. Regimentation, the destruction of
individual liberty, which has risen to curse the world, is the basic principle
of Jewish government of the Jews, by the Jews.
What else can happen when world government of the Gentiles
by the Jews for the bankers becomes established?
However, the misgivings of some Jews were not justified.
The Americans made no protest. The Kehillah went ahead with its campaign and
America submitted. New York became Jewish. American life, American thought,
and American politics, became Jewish dominated in the decades that followed.
But with it all, the Jews exhibit a sense of the insecurity of this usurpation
of power. It does not belong to those who have seized it; it does not belong
either by right of numbers, or by right of superior ability, or yet by right
of a better use made of that power. They have taken power in America by
audacity; they have taken it in such a way as to make resentment of it seem
like an antiracial movement and that is why they have held it as long as they
have. That is the only way to explain the meekness of the Americans in this
matter, and it also accounts for the sense of insecurity, which even the Jews
feel in the position they hold. The American is the slowest person in the
world to act on any line that savors of racial or religious prejudice. This
makes for a seeming aloofness from matters like the Jewish Question. This also
leads uninformed public men to sign protests against. 'Anti-Semitism" which
are really designed to be protests against the publication of Jewish facts.
The foundation, organization and rapid success of the Kehillah in New York is
an object lesson set in the sight of the world, as to what the Jew can do and
will do when he exalts himself to the seat of rule.
As to the Kehillah being officially representative, it may
be added that the Kehillah has in it representatives of the Central Conference
of American Rabbis, Eastern Council of Reform Rabbis, Independent Order of
B'nai B'rith, Independent Order of B'rith Shalom, Independent Order of Free
Sons of Israel, Independent Order of B'rith Abraham, Federation of American
Zionists orthodox Jews, reform Jews, "apostate Jews," rich Jews, poor Jews,
law abiding Jews and red revolutionary Jews. At the 1918 Convention there were
present: Jacob H. Schiff, banker; Louis Marshall, lawyer, president of the
American Jewish Committee; Adolf S. Ochs, proprietor of the "New York Times";
Otto A. Rosalsky, judge of the General Sessions Court; Otto H. Kahn, of the
banking house of Kuhn, Loeb and Company AND Benjamin Schlesinger, who had
lately returned from Moscow where he had a conference with Lenin; Joseph
Schlossberg, general secretary of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America;
Marc Pine, also a recent consultant with the Bolshevik rulers of Russia; David
Pinski; Joseph Barondess, labor leader. The high and the low were there; the
First World War was closing, the Russian revolution had been won. Judge Mack,
who headed the War Risk Insurance Bureau of the United States Government, and
the little leader of the reddest group in the East End they all met in the
Kehillah, as Jews. Adolph Ochs of the great "New York Times" together with the
most feverish scribbler on a Yiddish weekly that calls for blood and violence,
all of them of all classes, bound together in a solidarity which has been
achieved by no other people so perfectly as by Judah. Banded together for the
purpose of "protecting Jewish rights."
THE JEWISH DEMAND FOR "RIGHTS" IN AFRICA
What rights have Americans that Jews in America do not
possess? Against whom are the Jews organized and against what? What basis is
there for the cry of "persecution"? None whatever, except the Jews' own
consciousness that the course they are pursuing is due for a check. The Jews
always know that. They are not in the stream of the world, and every little
while the world finds out what Judah always knows. The program of the Kehillah
was ostensibly to "assert Jewish rights." No Jewish rights have ever been
interfered with in America. The expression was a euphemism for a campaign to
interfere with non-Jewish rights.
The New York Kehillah is the pattern and parent Jewish
community in the United States, the visible entourage of the Jewish
government, the dynamo which motivates those "protests" and "mass meetings"
which are frequently heralded throughout the country, and the arsenal of that
kind of dark power which the Jewish leaders know so well how to use. It is the
"whispering gallery," where the famous whispering drives are originated and
set in motion and made to break in lying publicity over the country. The
liaison between this center of Jewish power and the affairs of the people of
the United States is made by the American Jewish Committee. The Committee and
the Kehillah are practically identical as far as the national Jewish program
is concerned. Through their foreign associations they are also identical as
far as the world program is concerned.
The United States is divided into 12 parts by the American
Jewish Committee and every State belongs to a district headed by the most
powerful and representative Jews. The Committee represents the focusing point
of the religious, racial, financial and political will of Jewry. It is also
the executive committee of the New York Kehillah. New York Jewry is the dynamo
of the national Jewish machinery. Its national instrument is the American
Jewish Committee. Among its direct leaders and supporters today are the owners
of powerful newspapers, officials in Federal, State and City administration,
influential office holders on public boards and corporations, members of the
judiciary and police departments, financiers and heads of banking houses,
mercantile and manufacturing establishments, labor leaders and political party
organizers of all colors.
There are certain announced purposes of these associations,
and there are certain purposes, which are not announced. The announced
purposes may be read in printed pages; the purposes not announced may be read
in the records of attempted acts and achieved results. To keep the record
straight let us look first at the announced purposes of the American Jewish
Committee, then of the Kehillah; next at the line, which binds the two
together; and then at the real purposes as they are to be construed from a
long list of attempts and achievements. The American Jewish Committee,
officially organized in 1906, announced itself as incorporated for the
following purposes:
1. To prevent the infraction of the civil and religious
rights of the Jews in any part of the world.
2. To render all lawful assistance and to take appropriate
remedial action in the event of threatened or actual invasion or restriction
of such rights, or of unfavorable discrimination with respect thereto.
3. To secure for Jews equality of economic, social and
educational opportunities.
4. To alleviate the consequences of persecution wherever
they may occur, and to afford relief from calamities affecting the Jews.
It is an exclusively Jewish program. The Charter of the
Kehillah empowered it, among other things, to establish an educational bureau,
to adjust differences between Jewish residents or organizations by arbitration
or by means cf boards of mediation or conciliation; while the Constitution
announces the purpose to be: "To further the cause of Judaism in New York City
and to represent the Jews in this city with respect to all local matters of
Jewish interest."
Where the American Jewish Committee and the Kehillah join
forces is shown as follows: "Furthermore, inasmuch as the American Jewish
Committee was a national organization, the Jewish Community (Kehillah), of New
York City, if combined with it, would have a voice in shaping the policy of
Jewry throughout the land. It is expressly understood that the American Jewish
Committee shall have exclusive jurisdiction over all questions of a national
or International character affecting the Jews generally."
It will be seen, therefore, that the Kehillah and the
American Jewish Committee are one. The capital of the United States, in Jewish
affairs, is New York. Perhaps that may throw a sidelight on the efforts, which
are constantly made to exalt New York as the spring and source of all the
thoughts of the day. (Editor's Note: and now the seat of the United Nations
system of world government!) New York, the Jewish capital of the United
States} has been made the financial center, the art center, the political
center of the country. But its art is oriental sensuousness, its politics
those of a Judaized Tammany. It is the home of anti-American propaganda, of
pro-Jewish hysteria, a mad confusion of mind that now passes all over the
world as the true picture of America.
The doctrine with which so large a mass as the citizens of
America have been inoculated is making havoc with the whole American program
today. It is "broadening" America out of all semblances to its distinctive
self and blurring out of recognition those determining ideals and ideas on
which American institutions were based.
"JEWISH RIGHTS" CLASH
WITH AMERICAN RIGHTS
This study of the Jewish Question in the United States is
not based upon religious differences. The religious element does not enter
except when it is injected by the Jews themselves; they persistently inject it
in three ways: First, in their allegation that any study of the Jews is
"religious persecution"; second, by their own records of what their activities
in the United States consist of; third, by the impression which is very
misleading if not corrected, that the Jews are the Old Testament people. The
Jews are not the Old Testament people and the Old Testament can be found among
them only with difficulty. They are a Talmudical people who have preferred the
volumes of rabbinical speculation to the words of the ancient prophets.
In this series of articles we have set aside every
non-Jewish statement on this religious question, and have accepted only that
which proceeds from recognized Jewish sources. It has been most illuminating,
in studying the proceedings of the New York Kehillah and the American Jewish
Committee, and their affiliated organizations, as represented by their
activities throughout the country, to find how large a part of these
activities have a religious bearing, as being directly and combatively
anti-Christian.
That is to say, when the Jews set forth in the public
charters and constitutions of their organizations that their only purpose is
to "protect Jewish rights," and when the public asks what are these "Jewish
rights" which need protection in this free country, the answer can be found
only in the actions which the Jews take to secure that "protection."
Thus interpreted, "Jewish rights" seem to be summed up in
the "right" to banish everything from their sight and hearing that suggests
Christianity or its Founder. It is just there, from the Jewish side, that
religious intolerance makes its appearance.
ATTACKS ON
CHRISTIANITY
Previous to the formation of the Kehillah and the Jewish
Committee, this sort of attack on the rights of Americans was sporadic, but
since 1906 it has increased in number and insistence. Under cover of the ideal
of Liberty we have given the Jews liberty to attack Liberty. What America has
been tolerating is intolerance itself. Let us look rapidly down the years and
see one phase of that attack. It is the attack upon Christianity. Here are a
few items from the record. They are recorded over a period of years following
the rise of Jewish power in America: 1899-1900. The Jews attempt to have the
word "Christian" removed from the Bill of Rights of the State of Virginia.
1906-1907. The Jews of Oklahoma petition the Constitutional
Convention protesting that the acknowledgment of Christ in the new State
constitution then being formulated would be repugnant to the Constitution of
the United States.
The Jews force "The Merchant of Venice" to be dropped from
public schools in Texas, Ohio.
1907-1908. Widespread demand by the Jews for the complete
secularization of the public institutions of this country, as a part of the
demand of the Jews for their constitutional rights.
Supreme Court Justice Brewer's statement that this is a
Christian country widely controverted by Jewish rabbis and publications.
Jews agitate in many cities against Bible reading.
Christmas celebrations or carols in Philadelphia, Cincinnati, St. Paul and New
York met with strong Jewish opposition.
1908-1909. Protests made to Governor of Arkansas against

1918-1919. Provost Marshal Crowder, in charge of the
Selective Draft U. S. Forces, had issued an order to all medical examiners,
under direction of the Surgeon General, stating, "The foreign born, especially
Jews, are more apt to malinger than the native born." Louis Marshall, head of
the American Jewish Committee, telegraphed demanding that the "further use of
this form shall be at once discontinued." President Wilson ordered the
excision of the paragraph.
The United States Shipping Board sent an advertisement to
the "New York Times," calling for a file clerk and stating that a "Christian"
was preferred by which is meant always a non-Jew the paper rejected it. Louis
Marshall again went into action and protested to Bainbridge Colby, Woodrow
Wilson's Secretary of State, demanding "Not because of any desire for
inflicting punishment, but for the sake of example and the establishment of a
necessary precedent this offense should be followed by a dismissal from the
public office of the offender, and the public should be informed the reason."
Attention is called to the tone, which the American Jewish Committee adopts
when addressing high American officials in the name of Jewry. It is not to be
duplicated in the addresses of any other representative of any other race or
faith.
The Plattsburg Manual, published for officers in the United
States officers' training camps, contained the statement that "the ideal
officer is a Christian gentleman." The A J.C. at once protested against
"Christological manifestations," and the Manual was changed to read, "The
ideal officer is a courteous gentleman."
The Anti-Defamation Committee claimed that 160 American
cities had excluded "The Merchant of Venice" from the public schools.
1919-1920. The Kehillah was so successful in its campaign
that it was possible for a Jewish advertiser in New York to say that he wanted
only Jewish help, but it was not possible for a non-Jewish advertiser to state
his non-Jewish preference.
And so it goes on, year after year, right up to the present
day. The incidents quoted are typical not occasional. They represent what is
transpiring all the time in the United States as the Jews pursue their
"rights." There is no interference with Jewish ways and manners. The Jew may
use his own calendar, keep his own days, observe his own form of worship, live
in his own ghetto, exist on a dietary principle all his own, slaughter his
cattle in a manner which no one who knows about it can approve he can do all
these things without molestation, without the slightest question of his right
in them. But, the non-Jew is the "persecuted one." He must do everything the
way the Jew wants it done if not he is infringing on Jewish "rights."
THE CRY OF
"ANTI-SEMITISM"
What people are now coming to see is that it is American
rights that have been interfered with, and the interference has been made with
the assistance of their own "broadminded" tolerance. The Jews' interference
with the religion of others, and the Jews' determination to wipe out of public
life every sign of the predominant Christian character of the United States,
is the only active form of religious intolerance in the country today. Not
content with the fullest liberty to follow their own faith in peace and
quietness, in a country where none dare make them afraid, the Jews declare we
read it in their activities that every sight and sound of anything Christian
is an invasion of their peace and quietness, and so they stamp it out wherever
they can reach it through political means. To what lengths this spirit may run
is shown in the prophecies of the Talmud, and in the "reforms" undertaken by
the Communists of Russia and Eastern Europe.
That is not all; not content with their own liberty, not
content with the "secularization," which means the de-Christianization of all
public institutions, the third step observable in Jewish activities is the
actual exaltation of Judaism as a recognized and specially privileged system.
The program is the now familiar one wherever the Jewish program is found:
first, establishment; second, the destruction of all that is non-Jewish or
anti-Jewish; third, exaltation of Judaism in all its phases.
Put the Lord's Prayer and certain Shakespeare plays out of
the public schools, but put Jewish courts in the public buildings that is the
way it works. Secularization is preparatory to Judaization. The New York
Kehillah is an illustration of how it is done, and the American Jewish
Committee is an illustration of the type of men who do it.
The work of the Kehillah is claimed to be "educational" by
its defenders, on the few occasions when it is attacked. It is certainly that.
The best-educated members are those who come from the Eastern European ghettos
where the Kehillah idea was fully understood and practiced and where Jewish
community government exercised unrestricted sway. Whatever other phase of
education the Kehillah may be interested in, it certainly stresses most the
education to separateness. Dr. S. Benderley, director of the Bureau of
Education, gave away the objects of the Kehillah "education" thus: "The
problem before us was to form a body of young Jews who should be on the one
hand true Americans, a part of this Republic, with an intense interest in
building up American ideals; and yet, on the other hand, be also Jews in love
with the best of their own ideals, and not anxious merely to merge with the
rest and disappear among them. That problem confronts Orthodox and Reform Jews
alike. It is not merely a religious but a civic problem."
That is separatism and exclusiveness as an educational
program, and its result cannot help being training in ideas of racial
superiority and exclusivism.
It is the Jews' unceasing consciousness of the "Goy" that
constitutes the disease of Judaism, this century�s long tradition of
separateness. There is no such thing as "anti-Semitism." There is, however,
much anti-Goyism. In ad the countries of the world there is no anti-Arab
sentiment of which anyone knows. None of the Semite people have been
distinguished by the special dislike of any other people. There is no reason
why anyone should dislike the Semites.
It is very strange, however, that the Semite people should
be a unit in disliking the Jews. Palestine, which still only has a handful of
Jews, is peopled by Semites who so thoroughly dislike the Jews that serious
complications are threatening the Zionist advances being made there. This
surely is not anti-Semitism. Semites are not against Semites. They are at odds
with Jews.
EDITOR'S NOTE: The original was written in 1921 when the
Jewish population of Palestine was still insignificant. In 1918 it was only
about 4 per cent.
When Aryan and Semite are kept conscious through many
centuries that the Jew is another and superior race, and when it is known that
neither Aryan nor Semite are touchy on the race question, what is the answer?
Only this, that the whole substance of such a situation must be supplied by
the Jews.
There is no such thing as anti-Semitism. There is only a
very little and a very mild anti-Jewism. But a study of Jewish publications,
books, pamphlets, declarations, constitutions and charters, as well as a study
of organized Jewish action in this and other countries, indicates that there
is a tremendous amount of anti-Goyism, or anti-Gentilism.
"The administrators chosen by us from the masses for their
servility Frill not be persons trained for government, and consequently they
will easily become pawns in our game, played by our learned and talented
counselors, specialists educated from early childhood to administer world
affairs. As we know, our specialists have been acquiring the necessary
knowledge for governing." The Second Protocol.
Chapter 8
JEWISH INFLUENCES IN
AMERICAN POLITICS
Within the memory of even young men, Tammany Hall has been
the synonym of all political trickery in the vocabulary of popular criticism.
Tammany Hall was held up as the worst example of boss rule, political
corruption, brute force, that it was possible to find in the world. Its very
name became a stigma in the decades before the First World War. But even the
most unobservant newspaper reader must have observed the gradual fading out of
Tammany Hall from public comment, the cessation of the bitter criticism, the
entire absence of headlines bristling with ugly charges, and the calling of
the hosts of good citizenship to do battle against the grim bossism that
maintained its headquarters in New York.
Why the change in recent years? Is it due to the dying out
of Tammany Hall as a political force? No, Tammany Hall is still there, as any
New York politician will tell you. The Tammany tiger has not changed its
stripes.
There was a time when fearless publications told the truth
about Tammany, but they have either gone out of existence or have fallen under
control of the Jews. There was a time when public bodies like the Citizens'
Union organized to oppose Tammany and to keep a volunteer vigil on its
activities; these groups have succumbed to Jewish contributions and officer
ship and no longer stand guard.
The outcry against Tammany seemed to be hushed the moment
that Tammany patronage fell into the hands of the New York Jews, where it now
remains, the Kehillah being the real political center, and Tammany but a
distributing station a sort of "Gentile front" for the more powerful Kehillah.
The Judaization of Tammany is now complete, for the Irish element has been
overcome by Jewish money.
Tammany was one of the strongest political organizations
ever seen in the United States. Potent not only in municipal and state
politics, but often exercising a decisive influence on national affairs. It
was, without exaggeration, unequalled in any country in the world.
If there is one quality that attracts Jews, it is power.
Wherever the seat of power may be, thither they swarm obsequiously. As Tammany
was power and the gate of power, it was natural that the Jews of the biggest
Jewish city in the world should court it. Doubtless, they were also affected
by the incongruity of the fact that in the biggest Jewish city, the most solid
political power was non-Jewish.
When the German Jewish banker, Schoenberg, went to America
under the name of August Belmont to represent the interests of the Rothschilds,
his keen eye at once took in the situation. He became a member and supporter
of Tammany. It was good business for this Jewish banker, because the funds of
the Rothschilds were heavily invested in New York transport. The properties of
city tractions are, as in all American cities, at the mercy of the local
Tammany power, by whatever name it may be known. Belmont eventually attained
the coveted eminence of Grand Sachem of the Tammany Society. Belmont
Schoenberg opened the way for the rest of the Jews; the Freedman's,
Untermeyer's, Straus's financiers, lawyers, politicians, businessmen and union
sharks. There soon followed the wholesale appointment of Jews to the judiciary
of New York until New York became a political and legal Jewish preserve; and
onwards to the Supreme Court where Jewish influence never looked back since
the now distant day of the Jewish capture of Tammany Hall.
It was necessary for a Jewry that planned to control the
judiciary, as well as to provide special protection for certain Jewish
enterprises that are near enough to the borderline of the law to merit
question, it was necessary to obtain control of the supreme political engine
through which favors are disbursed in local politics. The peculiar system of
local, state and national government in the United States made it easy for the
control of such organizations to be gained by money.
The Jew's natural political home seems to be in the
Republican Party, for thither he returns after venture elsewhere; but his
predefinition for the Republican Party does not move the Jew to make the
mistake of being exclusively the partisan of one group. It is better, he
knows, to control all groups. Strong as Jewry became in Tammany, it was even
stronger in the ranks of the Republican Party, while New York socialism was,
and is, completely headed and manned by Jews. This renders it extremely easy
for the Jews to swing support in whichever direction they choose, and for
Kehillah to fulfill any threat it may make. It also insures that any Jewish
candidate on any ticket will be elected.
Because of the powerful Irish control of Tammany at the
beginning, the Jews worked cautiously. The Kehillah adopted the ancient
policy, not of putting forward their own people, but non-Jews who could be
useful to Judah. The difference between pro-Jewish politicians who are not
themselves Jews, and politicians of the Jewish race, is that the former can
sometimes go further than the Jew in office can, without detection. Thus, in
the early days of Tammany, indeed until just before World War I there was
always a "Gentile front" in Tammany offices basking in the glory of Tammany
publicity, but always in the background there was his "Jewish control." This
is the formula for citizens who wish to know the meaning of things otherwise
unexplained, "look for the 'Jewish control'." To this end, therefore, the Jews
have been strong in all parties, so that whichever way the election went, the
Jews would win. In New York it is always the Jewish party that wins. Whoever
wins New York rules the Government.
As always election campaigns are staged as an
entertainment, a diversion for the people; they are permitted to think and act
as if they are really making their own government, but it is always the Jews
that win. And if after having elected their man or group, obedience is not
rendered to the Jewish control, then you speedily hear of "scandals" and
"investigations" and "impeachments" for the removal of the disobedient.
Usually a man with a "past" proves the most obedient
instrument, but even a good man can often be tangled up in campaign practices
that compromise him. It has been commonly known that Jewish manipulation of
American election campaigns have been so skillfully handled, that no matter
which candidate was elected, there was ready made a sufficient amount of
evidence to discredit him in case his Jewish masters needed to discredit him.
To arrange this is part of the thoroughness of Jewish control. And, of course,
the American people have been sufficiently trained to roar against the public
official immediately the first Jewish hound emits its warning bay.
Amazing, as is the technique of the Jewish political
process, the readiness with which the American people can be counted on to do
their part in forwarding the game is still more amazing.
ALIENS AND TAMMANY LEADERSHIP
The strength of Tammany had exactly the same source as the
strength of the Kehillah, namely, in the foreign population; the difference
being that the Kehillah had a more compact foreign mass to draw upon. But both
the Kehillah leaders and the Tammany leaders have always been alertly aware of
the fact that their power depended upon an uninterrupted flow of immigration.
It is always the foreigner that makes the best material for the Kehillah's
purpose, until America become so thoroughly un-Americanized as to make
intensive immigration no longer essential. It was only then that immigration
began to slow down The third great influx of immigration into the United
States occurred in 1884 and was really the cause of the beginning of the
degeneration of New York, and then of American political life. The great wave
was composed of Russian, Austrian and Hungarian Jews, whose arrival was
followed by a memorable period of crime, the marks of which remain to this
day.
At that time the police department and the police courts
before which all criminal cases in the city were first brought, were in the
hands of Tammany Hall under the notorious Boss Croker. The result of the
Jewish control was a partnership between local government and crime, which has
not been duplicated outside of Semitic countries. Immigrant Jews of the
shadier type organized an association called The Max Hochstim Association,
which was known as the "Essex Market Court Gang." One of its chief leaders was
Martin Engel, Tammany leader of the Eighth District. The "king" of this Jewish
district was a man named Solomon who had changed his name to the less
revealing one of "Smith," and who became known as "Silver Dollar Smith,"
because of the fact that he ruled his little empire from the Silver Dollar
Saloon. This saloon was just opposite the Essex Market Court, which was
thronged daily by hordes of Yiddish criminals, the bondsmen, the false
witnesses and lawyers. The Max Hochstim Association became the first organized
White Slavery Group in America, and the revelations made by the United States
Government Investigation Committee are shuddering exposures of that lowest
form of depravity a coolly conducted, commercialized, consolidated traffic in
women. The traffic was made to yield dividends to politicians, to Tammany Jews
in particular; it was during the official investigation that the Max Hochstim
Association became known as the "Essex Market Court Gang." Out of the old
police court in the "red light" Essex Market district, New York comes a word,
which has fixed itself in common English speech. A lawyer named Scheuster,
whose practices were quite characteristic, made himself very obnoxious to
Justice Osborne. Whenever another Yiddish lawyer attempted a shady trick the
judge would openly denounce it as "Scheuster practice," and so it came that
the first men in the profession to bear the name of "shyster" were the Yiddish
lawyers of Essex Market Court, New York.
JEWS AND THE WRITE SLAVE SCANDAL
It is a surprising fact that, although these matters are
written in official documents, and although the same matters have been written
into the record of every similar investigation, which has been made, Jewish
leaders persist in denying that the leaders in this particular form of
depravity are Jews. When the United States Government made a nationwide
investigation, it found and recorded the same facts. The New York Kehillah
came into existence as a defense organization at a time when the exposure of
the Jewish White Slave Traffic threatened to overwhelm the New York ghetto.
The exposure, which resulted when the white people of New
York finally succeeded in getting the forces of the law to function
impartially for a little while, caused many of the implicated Jews to change
their names. These names are now representative of some of the best Jewish
families, whose concealed bar sinister is the fact that the foundation of the
family fortune was laid in the red light districts. The Max Hochstim
Association was not the only organization of its kind to be unearthed. Another
was the New York Independent Benevolent Association, which was organized in
1896 by a party of Jewish white slave dealers. Gangs like these formed the
backbone of Tammany power in the slum districts; their principal field of
operations was the cheap dance halls, their cover the "benevolent
associations" in the East Side, all run by Jewish leaders, chiefly Russian and
Galician Jews, as the official report exposes. They were slavers as their
forbears were in the days of Rome's decline; they were bootleggers before the
days of prohibition; and they constituted a strong support of the
international narcotic ring which to this day has defied the law by corrupting
the officers of the law.
In the decade before the First World War, in seizing
control and exploiting New York the Jews made one of their cyclically
recurring mistakes; they carried things too far with too high a hand. They
survived the exposure, however, and retained their power. It is this Jewish
tendency to boast and overdo that has always given the game away.
Superficial observers and writers have noted the recurrent
protests against Jewish presumption and bumptiousness and have explained them
as being recurrent spasms of a vile poison, which is supposed to reside in the
blood of the Gentile the vile poison of anti-Semitism. That is, of course, the
conventional Jewish propaganda explanation, and many Gentile clergy, writers
and politicians innocently retail it; many other Gentile worshippers of Jewish
money cynically connive at the treachery. It always breaks out after wars, say
some of these writers. Why after wars? Because in wars the world sees more
clearly than at other times the real purpose and personality of the Jew. Thus,
it is not anti-Semitism that breaks out it is Judaism, gross and exaggerated
Semitism; and the serum that forms in the social body to enlist and control
the germ of Judaism comes in the form of public exposure and protest. That
serum is working now the serum of publicity; and the Jewish program cannot
endure it.
Study the history of all things whatsoever into which the
Jews inject themselves, from summer resorts to empires, and you see the same
cycle appearing.
The Jewish conquest of Tammany, however, is only one phase
of the conquest of New York. The Jewish objective is more than political.
Merely to insure that the lucrative and powerful officers of the city shall be
their own people is not the end in view. New York has been turned into the Red
Center of America. There most of the alien treason carried on against the
government of the United States has its source. Tammany is a convenient cover
for ostensible political activity as the Kehillah is for the more radical
racial and anti-American racial activity.
"We shall soon begin to establish huge monopolies, colossal
reservoirs of wealth, upon which even the big Gentile properties will be
dependent to such an extent that they will all fall together with the
government credit on the day following the political catastrophe. The
economists here present must carefully weigh the significance of this
combination. We must develop every means the importance of our super
government, representing it as the protector and benefactor of all who
voluntarily submit to us.
"The aristocracy of the Gentiles as a political force has
passed away. We need not take them into consideration. But, as owners of the
land, they are harmful to us in that they are independent in their sources of
livelihood. Therefore, at all costs, eve must deprive them of their land.
"The best means to attain this is to increase the taxes and
mortgage indebtedness. These measures will keep land ownership in a state of
unconditional subordination Unable to satisfy their needs by small
inheritances, the aristocrats among the Gentiles will burn themselves out
rapidly.
"At the Tune time it is necessary to encourage trade and
industry vigorously and especially speculation, the function of which is to
act as a counterpoise to industry. Without speculation, industry will cause
private capital to increase and tend to improve the condition of Agriculture
by freeing the land from indebtedness for loans by the land banks. It is
necessary for industry to deplete the land both of laborers and capital, and,
through speculations, transfer all the money of the world into our hands,
thereby throwing the Gentiles into the ranks of the proletariat. The Gentiles
will then bow 4 before us to obtain the right to existence." The Sixth
Protocol.
Chapter 9
BOLSHEVISM AND ZIONISM
Communism works in the United States through precisely the
same channels as it used in Russia and through the same agents Revolutionary
and Predatory Unionism, as distinct from Business and Uplift Unionism, and
Jewish agitators. When Martens, the so-called Soviet Ambassador, "left" the
United States after being deported, he appointed as the representative of
Communism in the United States one Charles Recht, a Jew, and a lawyer by
profession, who maintained an office in New York. This office was the
rendezvous of all the Jewish labor union leaders in the city, many of the
labor leaders throughout the country, and frequently of American government
officials and other political leaders known to be the henchmen of Jewish
aspirations in the United States and sympathizers with predatory radicalism.
The organization has since spread from coast to coast, from north to south.
The situation of Communist headquarters in New York was, and is, important
because from that centerlines of authority and action radiate to all the other
cities of the Union. New York is the laboratory in which the emissaries of
revolution learn their lesson, and their knowledge is daily increased by the
counsel and experience of traveling delegates straight out of Russia.
American citizens do not realize that all the public
disturbances, the labor differences, strikes and political confusions of which
they read are not mere sudden outbreaks, but the deliberately planned
movements of leaders who know exactly what they are doing.
Mobs are methodical; there is always an intelligent core,
which gets done under the appearance of excitement what has been planned
beforehand. Up through the French Revolution, up through the German
Revolution, up through the Russian Revolution, and the world disorders since,
came the previously chosen men, and to this day the groups thus raised to
power have not lessened their power and they are Jewish groups. Russia is not
more Jewish controlled than France; Germany tried in vain to loosen the grip
of Judah from her throat. So it is in America.
The first step of the Jewish organizations supporting
Communism in the United States was the control and expansion of the Hebrew
labor movement among the millions of immigrants during 50 years with the view
to eventual Jewish control of all labor unions. The Jews have captured
American trade union movements as completely as if they had stormed them with
the bayonet.
There is a mass of moving literature (mostly written by
Jews) pretending to describe the glowing hearts with which these alien throngs
of liberty loving democrats, workers' comrades, look upon America, their
intense longing for the "American way of life," their love of the people and
American institutions. The actions of these people and the utterances of their
leaders all too clearly give the lie to this fair picture that gullible
American Gentiles would fain believe.
The resistance offered to the "American way of life,"
consisting in the limitations put on the Americanization program, has been
sufficient to convince alert observers that, so far as the Jewish invasion is
concerned, it is not their desire to go the way America is going, but to
influence America to go the way they are going. They talk a great deal of what
they bring to America but nothing at all of what they found there. America is
presented to them as a big piece of putty to be moulded, as they desire. "The
Melting Pot," a term which the Jewish writer Zang will give currency, is not a
dignified name for the Republic, and it is more and more challenged as
descriptive of the process that goes on. There are some substances in the pot
that will not melt; but more significant still, there are rapidly increasing
influences who want to melt the pot!
The two divisions of Jewish wealth and political power are
first, German Jewish, represented by the Schiffs, the Speyers, the Warburgs,
the Kahns, the Lewisohns and the Guggenheims. These play the game with the aid
of the financial resources of the non-Jews. The other division is composed of
the Russian and Polish Jews who monopolize the lower ranks of trade and
industry. Between them their grip and influence is absolute. They may
sometimes have internecine quarrels regarding the division of the spoils, and
eager publicists may zealously call attention to these quarrels as evidence of
the utter lack of unity among the Jews, but in the Kehillah and elsewhere they
understand each other quite well, and on the question of Jew vs. "goy" they
are indivisibly one.
There is a distinction between what this Jewish coalition
would do and what it could do, but its will and power never so closely
correspond as when the non-Jewish element in the nation is asleep. Never are
Jewish will and power 80 widely divorced as when the non-Jewish mind is alert.
The only thing to fear is not the alert Jew, but the consequences of
sleepiness among the Gentiles. The Jewish program is checked the moment it is
perceived and identified.
JEWISH RED LINKS
There are more Communists in the United States than there
are in Soviet Russia. Their aim is the same and their racial character is the
same. If they have not yet been able to do in America what they have done in
Eastern Europe, it is because of the greater dissemination of information, the
higher degree of intelligence, and particularly the wider diffusion of the
agencies of government, than ever obtained in Russia and Eastern Europe. The
powerhouse of Communist influence and propaganda in the United States is in
the Jewish trade unions, which, almost without exception, adhere to a
Bolshevik program for the respective industries and for the country as a
whole. The fact proves most embarrassing to the Jewish leaders in the
recognized political parties very frequently. It is bad enough that Russian
Bolshevism, Communism, should be so predominantly Jewish, but to confront the;
same situation in the United States is a problem which Jewish leaders have to
use much ingenuity and deception to explain away or avoid. Yet the
International Jew of America cannot be absolved from bearing sole
responsibility for it. Russian Bolshevism came out of the East Side of New
York where it was fostered by the encouragement the religious, moral and
financial encouragement of Jewish leaders.
Leon Trotsky (Braunstein) was an East Sider. The forces,
which fostered what, he stood for centered in the Kehillah and the American
Jewish Committee. Both were interested in the work he set out to do the
overthrow of an established government, one of the allies of the United States
in world war one. Russian Bolshevism was helped to its objective by Jewish
gold from the United States and by the ignorance and indolence of the Gentile
citizens of the United States whose crimes of omission are almost as grave as
those of Bolshevik commission.
Now that the influence of Communism is found to be
numerically stronger here than in Russia, the fact causes no little
embarrassment to "patriotic" Jews. 'The big Jewish labor organizations are the
direct offspring of the Jewish Socialist Bund of Russia. Bundists swarmed to
the United States after the abortive revolution of 1905 at which time they
failed to put Bolshevism over in Russia, and these Bundists gave their time to
the Bolshevising of the Hebrew Trade Unions in America. An Agitation Bureau
was formed which propagated radical Socialism through the medium of the
Yiddish language. The Bundists incorporated in 1905 in New York an
organization known as "The Workmen's Circle" and "swelled the ranks of the
Jewish trade unions," to quote the Kehillah's Register. After a brief attempt
to propagate Socialism without reference to the Jewish Question, it was given
up, and in 1913 a resolution was adopted declaring that the whole purpose of
the work was Jewish. This is attributed, in the Kehillah record, to the spread
of "the idea of Jewish nationalism."
What amazes the student of the Jewish Question in the
United States is the stupidity, which permitted Jewish Bolshevism to flaunt
itself so openly. The only explanation that seems at all adequate is that the
Jews never dreamed that the American people would become sufficiently awake to
challenge them. The occasional exposure of Jewish tactics in America comes as
a surprise to the Jewish leaders, and is accounted for because they are
confident they have gained too strong a grip on the American mind to make such
challenges possible.
But, the Jewish leaders must admit that the Jewish Question
does not consist in American citizens uncovering the facts and helping other
citizens to become aware of them; the Jewish Question inheres in the facts
themselves and in Jewish responsibility for the facts.
If it is "anti-Semitism" to say that Communism in the
United States is Jewish, so be it but to the unprejudiced mind it will look
very like Americanism.
WILL JEWISH ZIONISM
BRING ARMAGEDDON?
When the British Army passed into Jerusalem in the
memorable capture of the city in 1917, the Protocols went in with it. A
symbolic circle was thus closed, though not in the way the Protocolists had
hoped. The man who carried the Protocols knew what they signified, and they
were carried not in triumph but as the plans of the enemies of world liberty.
Zionism is the best advertised of all present Jewish
activities and has exerted a greater influence upon world: events than the
average man realizes. In its more romantic aspects it makes an appeal to
Christians as well as to Jews, because there are certain prophecies, which are
held to concern the return of the Jews to Jerusalem. When this return takes
place, certain great events are scheduled to ensue.
Because of this admixture of the "religious" sentiment, it
is sometimes difficult for a certain class of people to scrutinize modern
Political Zionism. They have been too well propagandized into believing that
political Zionism and the "return" promised by the prophets are the same
thing. Having succumbed to the initial confusion of mistaking Judah for Israel
they have entirely mistaken the ancient writings that relate to these two and
have made the tribe of Judah (whence comes the name of Jew) the hub around
which all history and humanity swing. Judah was the single tribe with which
Israel could not live in peace over 2,000 years ago, and which has the baleful
gift of stirring up the same kind of dissension today. Yet no one ever thought
of charging the Ten Tribes of Israel with "anti-Semitism."
Zionism is challenging the attention of the world today
because it is creating a situation out of which many believe the next war will
come.
To adopt a phraseology familiar to students of prophecy, it
is believed by many students of world affairs that Armageddon will be the
direct result of what is now beginning to be manifested in Palestine.
With Zionism as a dream of pious Jews this investigation
has nothing to do. With Zionism as a political fact, every government is now
compelled to have something to do. It is a bigger question than any otherworld
question; it lies back of all world problems, large or small, national or
international, and is rapidly proceeding under cover of many other interests.
It is worthy of note that Zionism in the active modern
political sense took its rise racially and geographically where Bolshevism
arose, namely, in Russia, and that there was always a close relationship
between the Zionists of Russia and the New York Kehillah, as was evidenced by
public utterances made in Russia after the revolution in which the Kehillah
was extolled.
At the time war was declared in 1914, the Zionist Inner
Actions Committee was spread about in various countries. For example: Dr.
Schmarya Levin, of Berlin, was in the United States and remained there. He was
a Russian ram bi, German scholar, and cosmopolitan. Although, in 1914, the
Zionist center and seat of Inner Actions Committee was at Berlin, he remained
in the United States and became recognized as the leader of the leaders of
Zionism, until the great Jewish shift to Versailles. Another member of the
Inner Actions Committee was Jacobson, who was in Constantinople.
"When he saw that Constantinople could no longer be a
center of Zionist politics, he left and went to Copenhagen, Denmark, where in
a neutral country he could be of practical usefulness to the Zionists by
transmitting information and funds." ("Guide to Zionism," page 80).
In fact, the entire Inner Actions Committee, with
headquarters in Berlin, moved freely through a war-locked world, the only two
exceptions being Warburg and Hantke and there was no need for the Berlin
Warburg to move about, for there were others who represented him.
Dr. Levin gave his sanction for the shifting of the center
of Jewish gravity from Berlin to America, and "As early as August 80, 1914, a
month after the outbreak of war, an extraordinary conference of American
Zionists was called in New York."
What this change of seat meant, has formed the subject of
much discussion. In 1914 the Jews apparently knew more about the probable
duration of the Great War than did the principals. It was not to be a mere
excursion through Belgium, as some fancied. There was time to dicker, time to
show the value of certain Jewish support to the governments. Germany gladly
pledged the land of Palestine to the Jews, but the Jews had already seen what
Wilhelm TI had done in that ancient country when he enthroned himself on the
Mount of Olives. Evidently the Allies won in the contest of making promises
and submissions to Jewry, for on November 2, 1917, when General Allenby was
pushing up through Palestine with his British Army, Arthur James Balfour, the
British Foreign Secretary, issued the famous declaration approving Palestine
as a national home for the Jewish people.
"The wording of it came from the British Foreign Office,
but the text had been revised in the Zionist offices in America as well as in
England. The British Declaration was made in the form in which the Zionists
desired it, and the Zest clauses were added in order to appease a certain
section of timid anti-Zionist opinion." ("Guide to Zionism," pp. 8586.)
Now read the Declaration and note the italicized clauses
just referred to: "His Majesty's Government view with favor the establishment
in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people and will use their best
endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clear1y
understood that nothing 8i1 be done which may prejudice the civil and
religious rights of non-jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and
political status enjoyed bay Jews in any other country."
Zionism is of particular interest, not merely because of
the quarrels which have arisen among the leaders over money it is the war of
"interest" against "capital" but also because of the light it throws on the
two great armies of Jews in the world, the way in which they use their power
where they can, and the trouble that always embroils due nations which become
Jewish tools.
People sometimes ask why Jewry. Which is capitalistic,
should favor Bolshevism, which is the announced enemy of capital.
It is an interesting question. Why should a New York Jewish
financier, an officer of the government of the United States, help finance a
"Red" publication which even our tolerant government cannot stomach? In
addition to the fact that it is only "Gentile capital" that is attacked, the
answer is that the Jew who has fallen for the worship of the Golden Calf is
anxious to keep in the good graces of the Jew of the East the Mongolian Jews
who are rampaging against orderly systems of society. It is quite useful when
there is a revolution in Paris to have the 600 houses, which you may own,
spared by the incendiary mobs, as were Rothschild's houses. Zionism has been
one of the subjects upon which Western and Eastern Jews can unite.
Indeed, it was the Eastern Jew that compelled the Western
Jew to take a favorable stand on this matter. The Jews who are receiving the
freedom of our cities today in their various aspects as "German" and "British"
scientists are Eastern Jews. They have come to a contest with the Jews of
America on the question of Money. The Jews of America have smothered some very
ugly charges. The Jews of the East, more recently of Germany or England, are
not likely to be browbeaten by the moneybags of Jewish New York, for the
Eastern type of Jew knows of a situation in which money is the most useless
thing in the world and that is why he is feared and favored by Western
Jewry of the Golden Calf.
Cunning Jewish defenders occasionally capitalize the
"split" in Jewry. There is no such thing. The real split in Jewry will come if
and when Jews of vision begin to support the attempts, which have been made to
liberate the Jews from their leaders. This internal squabble means nothing but
the squabble of leaders; but when the Jews themselves divide, one side for
twentieth century light and the destruction of the power of selfish leaders,
then we may begin to hope. When the Jew recognizes the honesty of his critics
and the righteousness of what they charge, when the Jew advances in
civilization then there may be a "split," but not before. The division in
Jewry as evidenced by the contempt of the revolutionary party for the
financial party, and as even more strongly evidenced by the fear of the
revolutionary party by the financial party, was brought about by the earlier
insincerity of the Western Jew's Zionism. The Western Jew said that the United
States is the Promised Land, profits and interests are the "milk and honey"
and New York is Jerusalem; the Eastern Jew had another view.
Knowledge of Political Zionism is essential also as an
authoritative illustration of what the Jew does when he is in power.
Heretofore there has been Russia to illustrate this, but now there is
Palestine. With every fact against them, with every traveler and observer
giving them the lie direct, there are still Jewish spokesmen and poor
befuddled "Gentile fronts," as well as corrupt Gentile politicians and
writers, who insist that Communism is not Jewish and that Russia is not
governed by Jews. It is just this constant denial of facts, this failure to
use their opportunity to be honest that is going to be the judgment of Jewish
leaders. Communism all over the world, not in Russia only, is Jewish.
More to the present point is Palestine, where the unity of
revolutionary and financial Jewry is never more clearly established. It is
impossible for the most irresponsible Jewish spokesman
to deny that Palestine is Jewish. * The government is Jewish, the plan of
procedure is Jewish, the methods used are Jewish. Palestine will do to
illustrate the genius of the Jew when he comes to power.
Professor Albert T. Clay, in the "Atlantic Monthly"
(will anyone declare that this long established and thoroughly respectable
Boston publication is "anti-Semitic"?) warns us that the information about
Palestine, which we receive in America, comes to us through the Jewish
Telegraph Service (which is the Associated Press of worldwide Jewry) and the
Zionist propaganda. "The latter," he says, "with its harrowing stories of
pogroms in Europe, and its misrepresentations of the situation in the Near
East, has been able to awaken not a little sympathy for the Zionist
propaganda."
This propaganda of pogroms "thousands upon thousands of
Jews killed" amounts to nothing except as it illustrates the gullibility of
the Press. No one believes this propaganda and governments regularly disprove
it. But the fact that it continues indicates that something besides facts is
necessary to keep the scheme going. In Jerusalem as this is being written
(1921: Ed.) martial law is proclaimed. There has been a struggle between the
native inhabitants, whom the Balfour Declaration sought to protect, and the
new come Jews. The Jews were well armed and the natives fought with whatever
weapons they could find on the spot; the conclusion of all impartial observers
being that the Jews prepared for and sought the fight with unprepared Arabs.
The mark of disorder perpetrated by the Jews is all over
the place, the "persecuted" turned persecutor, and lest this should be charged
to the general wildness of the people in Palestine let it be said that the
Jewish rioters (most of whom are thugs from Eastern Europe) are only
expressing in deeds what the "cultivated" American and English Jews have
expressed in words namely, that the lawful inhabitants of the land ought to be
driven out, in spite of governmental promises to the contrary. One of the
lists. Rioters during that bloody Kas'er after World War I, Jabotinsky, whom
the British authorities sentenced 15 years in prison, was released immediately
on the arrival of the Jew Sir Herbert Samuel. Jabotinsky was one of the
original Russian Bolsheviki come down to practice the gentle arts of that
tribe in Palestine. The Government of Palestine since the British occupation
was, and is, Jewish. Sir Herbert Samuel was the British High Commissioner,
representing the power of the British Government, which took up the Mandate
for Palestine. This founded the Jewish power, which has been maintained and
increased to its present virulent state. The head of the judicial department
was also a Jew. Christian or Moslem judges who did not give the Jew a shade
the better of the proceedings were ousted a condition familiar in New York.
Chaim Weizmann became head of the Department of Works, and later emerged as
the successor to Levin as the leader of Zionism. The Jewish government of the
"new Palestine" was very much like that of Bolshevik Russia mostly foreign.
Practically every big American city was represented in the first Bolshevik
government of Russia. There is another full-fledged government waiting in
America for service whenever necessary.
LAND GRABBING
The methods adopted to get the land of Palestine away from
the Arabs in the early days of the Zionist invasion were such as will fill the
world with indignation once the world is permitted to know what was done. That
it was done with the knowledge and approval of Zionist Commissioner Samuel is
indicated by the fact that he suspended the activities of a British officer
who endeavored to stop the abuse. It was the old game of lending money at
exorbitant rate of interest to Arabs hard pressed by the ravages of war and
crop failure, and then seizing their land when they could not pay. The bank
that did this was the Anglo-Palestine Bank, a Zionist concern. This British
officer, to save the people and the land, made arrangements with a British
bank to lend them money at 6% with five years to pay. If payment failed, the
land was to go to the government for redistribution, not to the Zionist bank.
This was the humane plan, which the Zionist High Commissioner forbade,
whereupon the British officer resigned. The well considered action of Jewry in
power.
Then follows what is described by every impartial observer
as an arrogant attempt to expropriate everything in sight. The only schools
that had been established in Jerusalem had been built and manned by the
Gentiles, although the tiny group of Jews permanently resident in Jerusalem
have been the pensioners of worldwide Jewry for centuries. As long ago as 1842
Dr. Murray M'Cheyne noted that the Jerusalem Jews cared nothing for the
schools, but Christians with a warm regard for the Holy City set about to
improve the miserable condition of the Jewish inhabitants. Thus it came that
at the time of the Zionist invasion a considerable number of Jewish children
were in attendance at the schools. The new come Zionist leaders demanded that
the best of the schools be given up to them. Of course, this was refused. "The
Council of Jerusalem Jews" then caused it to be published in the Hebrew daily
that parents who did not withdraw their children from the schools would be
punished. Now look at the typical punishments threatened: If any parent
refused whose name was on the list of the American Relief Fund, the relief
would be withdrawn.
Doctors would he forbidden to visit families lhal had
children attending the enlightened schools.
Their names would lie sent, to the blacklist at the places
where circumcision was performed, so that, newborn descendants of the
recalcitrants; might be refused the rites of Moses. They would be denied all
share in Zionist, benefits or funds.
If they were in business they would be boycotted. If they were workmen,
they could get no work.
"Anyone who refused let him know that it was forbidden for
him to be called by the name of Jew. They will be fought by all lawful means.
Their names will be put upon a monument of shame and their deeds made to
reproach them to the last generation. If they are supported, their support
will cease. If they are rabbis, they will be removed from office. They shall
be put under the ban and persecuted, and all the world will know that in this
justice there has been no mercy."
It is the spirit of Jewish Bolshevism all over again. It is
tyranny, not the tyranny of strength, but of meanness and darkness. It is the
spirit, which produced the Irgun terrorism, the Jewish hatred, malice and
vengeance, which lurks for all critics of Jewry and opponents of Zionist
ambitions.
This spirit, which obtained at the beginning of a movement,
which the innocent Christian world has been taught by propaganda to regard as
a profoundly religious and respectable exodus, explains all that has happened
in the years since the Zionists took over Palestine. It staggers the
imagination to forecast what will be done in a period of full and unquestioned
rule.
It is very clear that Jewish nationalism will develop along
the line of enmity to the rest of the world.
There are three elements of danger in the situation: the
overwhelming predominant Bolshevist element that is being poured into
Palestine; the intense, egotistic and challenging nationalism that Zionists
exhibit even before they get a potato patch the taste for world politics and
world power; and the racial confusion which now exists in Palestine.
These combined are dynamite. The first is more vital than
many realize. The few Jews who have gone to Palestine at great sacrifice and
for pious reasons are complaining that instead of the Psalms of David the
people are singing songs of the Red Revolution and instead of meeting for
instruction and prayer there are riotous gatherings extolling Russian leaders
as Messiahs and the Soviet as the Kingdom of Heaven.
Palestine has been called the center of the earth. The
power that controls Palestine controls the world. Although exercising no
sovereignty over the land itself. Great Britain's control of adjacent waters
and of Egypt and Persia and India forms the key of her power.
The white race has thus far been the Chosen People to whom
dominion of the earth has been given. Palestine is the key to world military
strategy and trade. In question 12 of the Questions and Answers published by
the department of Education, Zionist Organization of America, this occurs:
12. What are the commercial possibilities of Palestine? The
location of Palestine between three continents favours foreign trade.
All this lends itself to dreams of future Rlory, as do the
unlimited mineral and oil resources of Palestine estimated by scientists in
astronomical figures.
Many Christian friends of the Jew have pleased themselves
by conceiving a universal Hague at Jerusalem and a new social order going out
to bless the nations from Zion. It is the idea conveyed by men like A. A.
Berle in books like "The World Significance of a Jewish State."
Americans do not understand the delicate racial situation
in Palestine. Zionist propaganda has always been accepted on the assumption
that Palestine is the Jews' land and that they only need help to go back. It
is an historical and political fact that Palestine has not been the Jew's land
for more than 2,000 years and then for only a brief while. At the close of the
1914-1918 war there were in Palestine over 600,000 Arabs and only 50,000 Jews.
Neither numerically nor industrially have the Jews held the land. Yet as the
result of a "war bargain" it is handed over to them as regardless of the
native inhabitants as if Belgium had been handed over to Mexico. Many of the
natives are Semites, like the Jews, but they do not want the Jews among them.
The Balfour Declaration, as well as the terms of the Mandate, recognized the
rights of the native races. Everyone who knows about the people who have been
native to Palestine for thousands of years recognizes their right, everybody
except the Jews.
It is now that the last clauses, added as the Zionist
historian declares, "in order to appease a certain section of timid
anti-Zionist opinion," begin to get a meaning for the reader.
Was the purpose only to quiet disturbing questions until
all the arrangements were made? Evidently. It was then a dishonest
appeasement! Such may have been the Zionists' intention, but no one expects
perjury on the part of the responsible nations.
General Allenby promised the native Arabs of Palestine that
their rights would be respected. So did the Balfour Declaration. So did the
San Remo Conference. So also did President Wilson in the twelfth of his
Fourteen Points.
But Judah says, "Let them get out!" "The last clauses were
added in order to appease a certain section of timid anti-Zionist opinion."
"Let them give up their land to us, we want it!" The delightful Jewishness of
it! The watchmen on the towers of the world are alarmed at what is brewing in
Judah's cauldron.
Chapter 10
JEWISH SUPREMACY IN
THE THEATRE AND CINEMA
The Theater has long been a part of the Jewish program
for the guidance of public taste and the influencing of the public mind. Not
only is the theater given a special place in the program of the Protocols, but
it is the instant ally night-by-night and week-by-week of any idea, which the
"power behind the scenes" wishes to put forth. It is not by accident that in
Russia, where they now have scarcely anything else, they still have the
Theater, specially revived, stimulated and supported by Jewish Bolshevists
because they believe in the Theater just as they believe in the Press; it is
one of the two great means of molding popular opinion.
Not only the "legitimate" stage, so-called, but the motion
picture industry the fifth greatest of all industries is also entirely Jew
controlled; with the natural sequence that the civilized world is increasingly
antagonistic to the trivializing and demoralizing influence of that form of
entertainment as at present managed.
As soon as the Jew gained control of American liquor, we
had a liquor problem with drastic consequences. As soon as the Jew gained
control of the "movies" Be had a movie problem, the consequences of which are
visible.
It is the peculiar genius of that race to create problems
of a moral character in whatever business they achieve a majority."
Every night hundreds of thousands of people give from two
to three hours to the Theater, every day literally millions of people give up
from 30 minutes to 8 hours to the "Movies"; and this simply means that
millions of Americans every day place themselves voluntarily within range of
Jewish ideas of life, love and labor; within close range of Jewish propaganda,
sometimes cleverly, sometimes clumsily concealed. This gives the Jewish
masseur of the public mind all the opportunity he desires; and his only
protest now is that exposure may make his game a trifle difficult.
The Theater is not only Jewish on its managerial side, but
also on its literary and professional side. More and more plays are appearing
whose author, producer, star and cast are entirely Jewish (vaudeville music
hall performers are predominantly Jewish). They are not great plays they do
not last long. This is natural enough, since the Jewish theatrical interests
are not seeking artistic triumphs, they are not seeking the glory of the
American stage, nor are they striving to develop great actors. Their interest
is solely financial and racial. There is a tremendous Judaizing movement on.
The work is almost complete. The American feel has gone out of the Theater; a
dark, Oriental atmosphere has come instead.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Writing in the London "Jewish Chronicle,"
August 6 1948, a Jewish correspondent (Americanus) admits "Most of the persons
who have cudgeled their wits over the problem, have neglected one of the most
obvious impacts on American life Jews have made, in the mass entertainment
media radio, films, the stage, night clubs. One might almost say that American
culture as a whole has taken on certain Jewish overtones�
Down to 1885 the American Theater was still in the hands of
the Gentiles; from that year dates the first invasion of Jewish influence.
This date almost coincides with the beginning of the organization and
coordination of the Jewish world scheme for domination called Zionism, and
this year marks not only the beginning of the Jewish wedge of control, but
something far more important.
It is not important that theater and music hall managers
are now Jews whereas they were formerly Gentiles. The importance begins with
the fact that with the change of managers there came also a decline in the art
and morals of the stage, and that this decline became accelerated as the
Jewish control became widespread. Jewish control means that everything has
been deliberately and systematically squeezed out of the American Theater
except its most undesirable elements, and these undesirable elements have been
exalted to the highest place of all. The Great Age of the American Theater is
past, the Great Actors have passed, and they have left no successors. A Hebrew
hand fell on the stage, and the natural genius of the stage was not welcome. A
new form of worship was to be established.
"Shakespeare spells ruin," was the utterance of a Jewish
manager. "Highbrow stuff" (meaning anything not salacious) is also a Jewish
expression. These two sayings, one appealing to the managerial end, the other
to the public end of the Theater, have formed the epitaph of the classic era.
The present day average intelligence appealed to in the
Theater does not rise above 13 to 18 years. "The tired business man" stuff
(another Jewish expression) has treated the theatergoing public as if it were
composed of morons. The appeal is frankly to a juvenile type of mind, which
can easily be molded to the ideas of the Hebraic theatrical monopoly.
Clean, wholesome, constructive plays the few that remain
are supported mainly by the rapidly vanishing race of theatergoers who survive
from an earlier day, and lay those younger people whose minds have been
shielded by these survivors from the contamination of the Jewish theater.
The great majority of the present generation has been
educated to support plays of an entirely different type. Tragedy is taboo; the
play of character, with a deeper significance than would delight the mind of a
child, is out of favor; the comic opera has degenerated into a flash of color
and movement a combination of salacious farce and jazz music, supplied by a
Jewish songwriter (the great purveyors of jazz) and the rage is for
extravaganza and burlesque. The bedroom farce has been exalted into the first
place; the historical drama has given way to fleshly spectacles set off with
overpowering scenic effects, the principal component of which is an army of
girls whose drapery does not exceed five ounces in weight.
Frivolity, sensuality, indecency, appalling illiteracy and
endless platitude are the marks of the degenerate American Theater under
Jewish control.
That, of course, is the real meaning of all the "Little
Theater" movements, which have begun in so many cities and towns in the United
States. The art of the drama, having been driven out of the theater by the
Jews, is finding a home in thousands of study circles throughout the country.
The people cannot see real plays; therefore, they read them. The plays that
are acted could not be read at all, for the most part, any more than the words
of the jazz songs can be read; they don't clean anything. The people who u ant
to see real plays and cannot, because Jewish managers won't produce them, are
forming little dramatic clubs of their own, in barns and churches and schools.
The drama fled from exploiters and has found a home with its friends.
MECHANICS AND FARE "STARS"
The major changes which the Jews have made in the theater
are four in number. First, they have elaborated the mechanical side, making
human talent and genius less necessary. They have made the stage {'realistic"
instead of interpretative. Great actors needed very little machinery; the men
and women on the pay rolls of the Jewish managers are helpless without
machinery.
The outstanding fact about the vast majority of present day
performances of any pretension is that the mechanical part dwarfs and obscures
the acting: and this is the reason knowing that the Jewish policy is death to
talent; the Jewish producer prefers to put his faith and his money in wood,
canvas, paint, cloth and tinsel. Wood and paint never show contempt for his
sordid ideals and his betrayal of his trust. Thus we have in the theater today
dazzling effects of light and motion but no ideas. A great many stage
employees, but no actors, drills and dances without end, but no drama. The Jew
has put in the glitter but he has taken out the profounder ideas. Second, the
Jews have introduced Oriental sensuality to the stage. The mark of the filthy
tide has risen until it has engulfed the whole theater. In New York, where
Jewish managers are thicker than they ever will be in Jerusalem, the limit of
theatrical adventures into the realm of the forbidden is being pushed further
and further. The sale of narcotics is illegal, but the instilling of moral
poison is not. The whole atmosphere of "cabaret" and "midnight frolic"
entertainment is of Jewish origin and importation. Montmarte has nothing at
all in the nature of lascivious entertainment that New York cannot duplicate.
But, neither New York nor any other American city has that Comedie Francaise
which strives to counterbalance the evil of cosmopolitan Paris. Where have the
writers for the Stage a single chance in this welter of sensuousness? Where
have the actors of tragic or comic talent a chance in such productions? It is
the age of the chorus girt a voluptuous creature whose mental caliber has
nothing to do with the concern of drama, and whose stage life cannot in the
very nature of things be a career.
A third consequence of Jewish domination of the American
stage has been the appearance of the "Star" system, with its advertising
appliances. The Theater is swamped in numerous "stars" that never really rose
and certainly never shone, but which were hoisted high on the advertising
walls of the Jewish theatrical syndicates in order to give the public the
impression that these feeble lantern lights were in the highest heaven of
dramatic achievement. The trick is a department store trick. It is sheer
advertising strategy. Whereas in normal times a discriminating public made the
"star" by their acclaim, nowadays the Jewish managers determine by their
advertisements who the star shall be.
The Jew seeks immediate success in all but racial affairs.
In the breakdown of the Gentile Theater, success cannot be too swift for him.
The training of artists takes time. It is far simpler to have the
advertisement bills, the venal critics of the Press, serve as a substitute.
The Jewish manager of the day diverts attention from the dramatic poverty of
the theater by throwing confetti, limbs, lingerie and spangles dazzlingly into
the eyes of his audience.
RISE OF THE JEWISH
THEATRICAL TRUST
These three disastrous results of Jewish control of the
Theater are all explained by a fourth; the secret of the change is found in
the Jewish passion to commercialize everything it touches. The focus of
attention has been shifted from the Stage to the box office. The banal policy
of "give the public what they want" is the policy of the panderer and not that
of creative genius. It entered the theater with the first Jewish invasion in
1885, when two alert Jews established in New York a so-called booking agency
and offered to take over the somewhat cumbersome system by which managers of
theaters in the big but distant towns in the country arranged engagements for
the ensuing season The old process involved extensive correspondence with
producing managers in the East and many local managers were obliged to spend
several months in New York to make up a season's bookings. The advantage of a
central booking concern relieved local managers of much time, labor and
thought, all details were handled for him and his next season's bookings were
arranged for him. In this manner was laid the foundation of the later day
Theatrical Trust. The booking firm, which gave birth to the iron control of
the theater, was that of Klaw & Erlanger. This is the key to the whole problem
of the decline of the American stage. The rise of the Theatrical Trust
completed the destruction of the personal touch in their relationship between
manager and company. The old "personal" system made possible the development
of genius in accordance with the organic laws, which determine its nurture,
growth and fruition.
The fact of Jewish control of the theater is not itself a
ground for complaint. If certain Jews, working separately or in groups, have
succeeded in wrenching this rich business from its former Gentile control,
that is purely a matter of commercial interest. It is precisely on the same
footing as if one group of Gentiles had won the control from another group of
Gentiles. In this, as in other business matters, however, there is the ethical
test of how the control was gained and how if is used. Society is usually
willing to receive the fact of control with equanimity, providing the control
is not used for antisocial purposes.
The fact that the old time Gentile producing managers
usually died poor while Jewish producing managers want immensely rich would
indicate that the Gentile managers were better artists and poorer business men
than the Jewish managers. At least poorer businessmen, perhaps and in any case
working on a system whose chief object was to produce plays not merely
profits.
The advent of Jewish control put the theater on a more
commercialized basis than it had previously known. It really represented
applying the Trust Idea of the theatre before it had been largely applied to
industry.
The early control of theaters in strategic cities, the
block booking agencies for artists and productions, and the running out of
business of the independent theaters and stock companies by excessive charges
for plays that had already been used in the regular theaters of the Trust,
really served Jewish interests in another way. The motion picture industry was
coming to the front. It was a Jewish enterprise from the first. There was
never any need to drive the Gentiles out of that, because the Gentiles never
had a chance to get it. Thus the driving out of the independent theater
manager and the stock companies threw the empty theaters over to the "movies"
and the benefit was again confined to a racial group.
The Theatrical Trust, which began as Jewish, was at the
beginning of the twentieth century in full control of the field. It reduced
what was essentially an art to a time clock, cash register system, working
with the precision of a well controlled factory. It suppressed individuality,
initiative, killed off competition, drove out the independent manager and the
natural genius, excluded all but foreign playwrights of established
reputations, fostered the popularity of inferior talent which was
predominantly Jewish, foisted countless "stars" of mushroom growth upon a
helpless public while driving real artists into obscurity; it handled plays,
theaters and actors, like factory products and began a process of vulgarizing
and commercializing everything connected with the theater.
CRITICS "CONTROLLED"
It is quite possible that many who read this are not
interested in the theater, and are, in fact, convinced that the theater and
cinema are a menace. But, what principally makes these things a menace? This
that the stage and cinema today represent the principal cultural element of 90
per cent of the people. What the average young person absorbs as to good form,
proper deportment, refinement as contrasted with coarseness, correctness of
speech or choice of words, customs and feelings of other nations, fashion of
clothes, ideas of religion and law, are derived from what is seen at the
cinema and theater. The masses' sole idea of home and life of the rich is
derived from the stage and the movies.
More wrong notions are given, more prejudices created by
the Jewish controlled theater cinema in one week than can be charged against a
serious study of the Jewish Question in a century. People sometimes wonder
where the ideas of the younger generation come from this is the answer.
The Jewish control of the public mind was not gained
without opposition, but one by one the defenders of the American tradition
were beaten or surrendered to overwhelming influences.
The Jewish Theatrical Trust was attacked by the Editor of
the New York "Dramatic Mirror" as far back as December 25, 1897. He was the
famous dramatic critic Harrison Grey Fiske. He wrote: "What then should be
expected of a band of adventurers of infamous origin, of no breeding and
utterly without artistic taste? Let it be kept in mind that the ruling numbers
of these men who compose the Theatrical Trust are absolutely unfit to serve in
any but the most subordinate places in the economy of the stage, and that they
ought not to be tolerated even in these places except under a discipline,
active, vigorous and uncompromising. Their records are disreputable and in
some cases criminal and their methods are in keeping with their records."
Fiske's article was reprinted in March 1898. The Jews, of
course, acted as one man as is always the case when one Jew is censured for
wrong doing or when one group of Jews are exposed for malpractices. All the
Jews in the United States came to the rescue of the Theatrical Trust Pressure
was brought to bear on news companies, which handled the circulation of
magazines in the United States. Leading hotels were induced to withdraw the
"Dramatic Mirror" from their newsstands. "Mirror" correspondents were refused
admittance to theaters controlled by the Trust. Any number of underground
influences were set in operation to "get" Fiske and his business.
EDITOR'S NOTE: These countermeasures of over 50 years
ago in America are readily recognized by alert observers of the present day,
when any form of criticism of a Jew or group of Jews is expressed; if anything
the weapons used to silence critics are more powerful, because Jewry has
become more powerful.
Libel suits were brought against Fiske for gigantic damages
for the strictures he had printed upon the personal characters of members of
the Trust. For once the Trust members came off badly. They were revealed to be
a much lower type of men than the American public had supposed was in charge
of the American theater.
The fight of the dramatic critics, first against the
bribery and then against the bludgeoning of the Theatrical Trust makes a story
of which echoes have frequently come to the public through the Press.
Conciliatory at first, with managers, actors, playwrights and critics, the
Trust, as soon as it gained power, showed its claws beneath the velvet. It had
millions of dollars of the public coming its way, why should it care? Whenever
a critic opposed its methods or pointed out the inferior, coarse and degrading
character of the Trust productions, he was barred from the Trust's theaters,
and local managers were instructed to demand his discharge from his newspaper.
In almost every case the demand was complied with, the papers being threatened
with the loss of advertising. In all the years since, the Trust has hounded
and blacklisted critics who tell the truth and have prevented their employment
by newspaper.
The rage of the day is not plays but playhouses. The
theatrical business entered upon its real estate phase with the coming of the
Trust. There id money in renting chairs at the rate of 1 to 3 dollars an hour.
The renting of chairs is a reality. The Stage has become an illusion, since it
came under the influence and control of a group of former bootblacks,
newsboys, ticket speculators, prize ring habitu�s, and Bowery characters.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Since the original "Dearborn Independent"
articles were published the critics and columnists of the American Press have
become predominantly Jewish, or Jewish controlled.
The public does not see and does not know these gods before
whom they pour their millions yearly, nor does the public know from what
Source theatrical vileness come8. It is painful to listen to fledgling
philosophers discuss the "tendencies of the stage," or expiate learnedly on
the "divine right of Art," to be as flippant and filthy as it pleases, when
all the time the "tendency" and "art" is determined by men whose antecedents
would make Art scream.
The Theatrical Trust does not exist in the form it did ten
years ago; it grew arrogant and bred secret enemies among its own people. A
new force arose, but it was also Jewish. Instead of one, the American people
now have a dual dictatorship of the stage.
It is perfectly natural that the complete Judaization of
the theater should result in its being transformed into the "show business," a
mere matter of trade and barter. The producers are often not equipped
culturally for anything more than the baldest business. They can hire what
they want, mechanics, costumers, painters, writers, and musicians. With their
gauge of public taste and their models of action formed upon the racetrack and
the prize ring; with their whole ideal modeled upon the ambition to pander to
depravity, instead of serving legitimate needs, it is not surprising that the
standards of the Theater should now be at their lowest mark.
The Jewish manager whenever possible employs Jewish actors
and actresses. Gentile playwrights and actors are steadily diminishing in
number for want of a market. The "cover name" conceals from the public that
the actors and actresses who purvey "entertainment" are, in large and growing
proportion, Jewish.
THE ALL JEWISH "MOVIES"
Jews did not invent the art of motion picture photography;
they have contributed next to nothing to its mechanical or technical
improvement; they have not produced any of the great artists, either writers
or actors, which have furnished the screen with its genuine material. Motion
photography, like most other useful things in the world, is of non-Jewish
origin. But by the singular destiny, which has made the Jews, the greatest
cream skimmers of the world, the benefit of it has not gone to the
originators, but to the usurpers, the exploiters.
When millions of people crowd through the doors of the
movie houses at all hours of the day and night, literally an unending line of
human beings in every habitable corner of the land, it is worth knowing who
draws them there, who acts on their minds while they quiescently wait in the
darkened theater, and who really controls the massive bulk of human force and
ideas generated and directed by the suggestions of the screen.
Who stands at the apex of this mountain of control? It is
stated in the sentence: The motion picture influence of the United States, of
the whole world, is exclusively under the control, moral and financial, of the
Jewish manipulators of the public mind.
The moral side of the movies' influence is now a world
problem. Everybody who has an active moral sense is convinced as to what is
being done and as to what ought to be done. It is a business that frankly
brutalizes taste and demoralizes morals and should not be permitted to be a
law unto itself. But the propaganda side of the movies does not so directly
declare itself to the public. That the movies are recognized as a tremendous
propagandist institution is proved by the eagerness of all sorts of causes to
enlist them. There is ample evidence that the Jewish promoters have not
overlooked that end of it. This propaganda as at present observed may be
described under the following heads: It consists in silence about the Jew as
an ordinary being. Jews are not shown upon the stage and screen except in
unusually favorable situations. This ill concealed propaganda of the Jewish
movie picture control is also directed against non-Jewish religions. A Jewish
rabbi is never depicted on the screen in any but the most honorable attitude.
He is clothed with all the dignity of his office and he is made as impressive
as can be. Christian clergymen, as any movie "fan" will readily recall, are
often subjected to all sorts of misrepresentation, from the comic to the
criminal. This attitude is distinctly Jewish. Like many unlabeled influences
in our life, whose sources lead back to Jewish groups, the object is to break
down as far as possible all respectful or considerate thought about the
clergy.
The Catholic clergy very soon made themselves felt in
opposition to this abuse of their priestly dignity, and as a result of their
vigorous resentment the Jew climbed down. You now never see a priest made
light of on the screen. But the Protestant clergyman is still the elongated,
sniveling, bilious hypocrite of anti-Christian caricatures. He is made to
justify his deeds by appeals to "broad" principles, which really kills two
birds with one stone; it degrades the representative of religion in the eyes
of the audience, and at the same time it insidiously inoculates the audience
with the same dangerous ideas. A Hebrew may not be depicted on the screen as
the owner of a sweatshop though all sweatshop owners are Jews; but you may
make a Christian clergyman anything from a seducer to a safecracker and get
away with it. Remembering what is written in the Protocols, a question arises.
It is written: "We have misled, stupefied and demoralized the youth of the
Gentiles by means of education in principles and theories, patently false to
us, but which we have inspired." Protocol 9.
"We have taken good care long ago to discredit the Gentile
clergy. "Protocol 17.
"It is for this reason that we must undermine faith,
eradicate from the minds of the Gentiles the very principles of God and Soul,
and replace these conceptions by mathematical calculations and material
desires." Protocol 4.
Two possible views are open to choice: one, that this
caricature of representatives of religion is simply that natural expressions
of a worldly state of mind the other, that it is part of a traditional
campaign of subversion. The former is the natural view among uninformed
people. It would be the preferable view, if peace of mind were the object
sought. But there are far too many indications that the second view is
justified, to permit of its being cast aside.
The screen, whether consciously or just carelessly, is
serving as a rehearsal stage for scenes of antisocial menace. There are no
uprisings of revolutions except those that are planned and rehearsed.
Revolutions are not spontaneous uprisings, but carefully planned minority
actions. There have been few popular revolutions. Civilization and liberty
have always been set back by those revolutions, which subversive elements have
succeeded in starting. Successful revolution must have a rehearsal. It can be
done better in the motion pictures than anywhere else: this is the "visual
education" such as even the lowest brow can understand. Indeed, there is a
distinct disadvantage in being "highbrow" in such matters. Normal people shake
their heads and pucker their brows and wring their hands, saying, "We cannot
understand it." Of course, they cannot. But if they understood the lowbrow,
they would understand it, and very clearly. There are two families in this
world, and on one the darkness dwells.
Reformers, of course, heartily agree with this as far as
criminal portrayals are concerned. Police protest against the technique of
killing a policeman being shown with careful detail on the screen. Businessmen
object to daily lessons in safe cracking being given in the pictures.
Moralists object to the art of seduction being made the stock motif no matter
what the subject. They object because they recognize it as evil schooling,
which bears bitter fruits in society. This kind of "visual education" is going
on; there is now nothing connected with violent outbreaks, which has not been
put into the minds of millions by the agency of the motion pictures. It may
be, of course, a mere coincidence. But coincidences are also realities.
There are other developments in screendom, which are worthy
of mention. One is the increasing use of non-Jewish authors to produce Jewish
propaganda. Popular non-Jewish authors' books have been screened by Jewish
producers and they are more effective as such propaganda because they are
backed by non-Jewish names famous in the literary world. How much of it is due
to the authors' desire to enter the field of pro-Semitic propaganda, and how
much of it is due to their reluctance to refuse amiable suggestions from movie
magnates who have already paid them liberal sums and are likely to pay them
more, is another question.
With the "movie bug" so rampant in the country, it is next
to impossible to supply enough good pictures for the stimulated and artificial
demand. Some people's appetite calls for two or more pictures a day. Shallow
pated women see them in the afternoon and several more at night. With all the
brains and skill of the country engaged on the task it would be impossible to
supply a fresh drama or comedy of quality, hot out of the studios every hour,
like bread. Where the Jewish controllers have overstepped themselves is here:
they have over stimulated a demand, which they are not able to supply, except
with such material as is bound to destroy the demand. Nothing is more
dangerous to the social value of the motion picture business than an
exaggerated appetite for them, and this appetite id whetted and encouraged
until it becomes a mania.
EDITOR'S NOTE: This has been ample proved in the use
made of the cinema to foment the 1939 war, and to intensify the hatreds and
spread the malicious lies that grew out of that war.
EDITOR'S NOTE: These views on Jewish influence in the
United States were, of course, published before the remarkable development of
television, and radio. While that mighty influence is not mentioned in these
pages concerning Jewish activities in the United States, it should be added
that Jewish control, from the manufacturing to the performing end, is as
effective as in other American businesses. Radio television, as a force in the
world program outlined in this series of articles, probably now takes the
first place in the Jewish scheme of things.
"In order not to destroy premature the Gentile
institutions, we have laid our efficient hands on them, and rasped the springs
of their mechanism. They were formerly in strict and just order, but we have
replaced them with a liberal disorganized and arbitrary administration. We
have tampered with Jurisprudence, the franchise, the press, freedom of the
person, and, most important of all, education and culture, the cornerstone of
free existence.
"We have misled, stupefied and demoralized the youth of the
'Gentiles by means of education in principles and theories patently false to
us, but which we have inspired.
"Above existing laws, without actual change but by
distorting them through contradictory interpretations, we have created
something stupendous in the way of result. The 9th Protocol.
Chapter 11
JEWISH JAZZ BECOMES
OUR NATIONAL MUSIC
Many people have wondered whence come the waves upon waves of
musical slush that invade decent homes and set the young people of this
generation imitating the drivel of morons. Popular music is a Jewish monopoly.
Jazz is a Jewish creation. The mush, slush, the sly suggestion, the abandoned
sensuousness of sliding notes, are of Jewish origin.
Monkey talk, jungle squeals, grunts and squeaks and gasps
suggestive of calf love are camouflaged by a few feverish notes and admitted
in homes where the thing itself, unaided by scanned music," would be stamped
out in horror. The fluttering music sheets disclose expressions taken directly
from the cesspools of modern capitals, to be made the daily slang, the
thoughtlessly hummed remarks of schoolboys and girls.
Is it surprising that whichever way you turn to trace the
harmful streams of influence that flow through society, you come upon a group
of Jews? In baseball corruption a group of Jews. In exploitative finance a
group of Jews. In theatrical degeneracy a group of Jews. In liquor propaganda
a group of Jews. In control of national war policies a group of Jews. In
control of the Press through business and financial pressure a group of Jews.
War profiteers, 80 per cent of them Jews. Organizers of active opposition to
Christian laws and customs Jews.
In this miasma of so-called popular music, which combines
weak mindedness with every suggestion of lewdness again Jews.
The Jewish influence on American music is without doubt
regarded as serious by those who know anything about it. Not only is there a
growing protest against the Judaization of our few great orchestras, but there
is a strong reaction from the racial collusion, which fills the concert stage
and popular platform with Jewish artists to the exclusion of all others. If
they were superior artists, nothing against it could be said; they are only
better known and racially favored in Jewish musical circles.
"Let me make a nation's songs and I care not who makes the
laws," said one; in this country the Jews have had a very large hand in making
both. It is the purpose of this article to put people in possession of the
truth concerning the moron music, which they habitually hum and sing and shout
day and night and if possible to help them to see the invisible Jewish baton,
which is waved above them for financial, and propaganda purposes. Just as the
American stage and motion picture have fallen under the control of Jews and
their art destroying commercialism, so the business of handling "popular
songs" has become a Yiddish industry. The Jews who captured it in the early
days of exploitation were for the most part Russian born Jews, some of whom
had personal pasts, which were as unsavory as the past of many Jewish
theatrical, and movie leaders have been exposed to be.
In the early 1920's, Irving Berlin, Leo Feist and other
officers of seven music-publishing corporations in New York, were charged with
violating the Sherman anti-Trust law in a suit brought by the United States
Government. The defendants, it was alleged, controlled 80% of the available
copyrighted songs used by manufacturers of phonographs, player piano rolls and
other musical reproducing instruments, and fixed prices at which the records
or rolls were to be sold to the public. The corporations involved in the
action were the Consolidated Music Corporation; Irving Berlin, Inc.; Francis,
Day and Hunter, Inc.; Shapiro, Bernstein & Co.; Watterson, Berlin & Snyder,
Inc.; and M. Witmark & Sons, Inc.; all of New York. The agreement, which the
United States Government sought to dissolve, was alleged to provide that the
defendants would make contracts only through the Consolidated Music
Corporation, which they had organized. The other 20 % of the song business was
controlled by other Jewish music houses not included in that special group.
HOW THE JEWISH SONG TRUST MAKES YOU SING
Jews did not create the popular song; they debased it. The
time of the entry of Jews into control of the popular song is the exact time
when the morality of popular songs began to decline. The "popular" song,
before it became a Jewish industry, was really popular. The people sang it and
had no reason to conceal it. The popular song today is often so questionable a
composition that performers with a vestige of decency must appraise their
audience before they sing. Citizens of adult age will remember the stages
through which the popular song has passed during recent decades. War songs
persisted after the Civil War and were gradually intermingled with songs of a
later time, picturesque, romantic, clean. The same and similar songs and
ballads had a brief revival during World War I. These were not the product of
song factories, but the creation of individuals whose gifts were given natural
expression. These individuals did not work for combines of publishers but for
the satisfaction of their work, for individual artists of the music hall
stage. There were no great fortunes made out of songs, but there were many
satisfactions in having pleased the public taste. The public taste, like every
other taste, craves what it is given most to feed upon. Public taste is public
habit. The public is blind to the source of that upon which it lives, and it
adjusts itself to the supply. Public taste is raised or lowered as the quality
of its pabulum improves or degenerates.
In a quarter of a century, given all the avenues of
publicity like theater, movie, popular song, newspapers and radio in the
meantime having thrown the mantle of contempt over all counteractive moral
agencies you can turn out nearly the kind of public you want. It takes just
about a quarter of a century to do the job.
In other days the people sang, as they do now, but not in
such doped fashion nor with such bewildered continuity. They sang because they
wished to, not as an uncontrolled habit. They sang songs nonsensical,
sentimental, heroic, but the "shady" songs were outlawed. The old songs come
readily back to memory. Though years have intervened since they were the
fashion, yet their quality was such that they do not die. The popular song of
last month who knows its name? But there are songs of long ago whose titles
are familiar even to those who have not sung them. What margin did these songs
leave for the suggestive and for the unwholesomely emotional? Sentiment was
not lacking, but it was unobjectionable sentiment. Then came the Jews; the
popular song underwent a change. An entirely new crop of titles appeared
dealing with an entirely different series of subjects than the songs they
displaced talented singers, tuneful singing vanished. The Jew and the African
period, being the entrance of the jungle motif, the so-called "Congo" stuff,
and other compositions which swiftly degenerated into a rather more bestial
type than the beasts themselves arrive at. Running alongside this swamp strain
was the "ragtime" style of music, which was a development of the legitimate
Negro minstrelsy. Lyrics disappeared before the numerous "cakewalk" songs that
deluged the public ear. Seductive syncopation swamped the harmony of the real
song. Minstrelsy took on a new life; glamorous youths mutter dirges in low
monotones, voluptuous females with grossly seductive gestures moan nasal notes
no real musician can recognize. "Piano acts" were made the rage; "jazz bands"
made their appearance. By insensible gradations now easily traceable through
the litter of songs with which recent decades are strewn, we have been able to
see the decline in the popular song supply. Sentiment has been turned into
sensuous suggestion. Romance has been turned into eroticism. The popular
musical lilt slid into ragtime and ragtime has been superseded by jazz and
crooning. Song topics became lower and lower until at last they are the
dredges of the slimy bottom of the underworld.
The first self-styled "King of Jazz" was a Jew named
"Frisco." The general directors of the whole downward trend have been Jews. It
needed just their touch of cleverness to camouflage the moral filth and raise
it half a degree above that natural stage where it begets nothing but disgust.
PLAGIARISM
In this business of making the people's songs the Jews have
shown as usual, no originality but much adaptability which is a charitable
term used to cover plagiarism, which in its turn politely covers the crime of
mental pocket picking. The Jews do not create; they take what others have
done, give it a clever twist, and exploit it. Plagiarism is the result of
mediocre artists being spurred on by nonartistic promoters to produce
something that can be dressed up with sufficient attractiveness to draw the
public's money. The Jews bought up all the old songbooks, opera scores,
collections of folk songs, and, if you stop to analyze some of the biggest
"hits" of the early days of the Yiddish song manufacturing Trust, you will
find they are woven on the motif and melody of the clean songs of the
pre-swamp era. The music jazzed and swung out of recognition, the sentiment
sensualized very much, and pushed upon their smutty road across the world.
Because of absolute Jewish control of the song market, both in publishing and
in theatrical performance, it is next to impossible for anything but a Jewish
song to be published in the United States, or if published, to get a hearing.
The proof of this is in the fact that the Yiddish trust owns all the business
and the so-called "song hits" all bear Jewish names.
The insidiousness of the Jewish menace to our artistic
integrity is due partly to the speciousness, the superficial charm and
oriental persuasiveness of Hebrew art, its glitter, its violently juxtaposed
extremes of passion, its poignant eroticism and pessimism, and partly to the
fact that the strain in us which might make head against it, the deepest, most
fundamental strain in our nature is diluted and confused by a hundred other
tendencies of the Jewish age. The Anglo-Saxon group of qualities and the
Anglo-Saxon point of view are the vital nucleus of the American temper. The
Jewish domination of our music threatens to submerge and stultify them at
every point.
TIN PAN ALLEY
America does not sing what it likes, but what the
vaudeville "song pluggers" popularize by repeated renditions, until the flabby
minds of the audiences begin to repeat it on the streets.
The "song pluggers" of theater, vaudeville and radio, are
the paid agents of the Yiddish song agencies. Money, and not merit, dominates
the spread of the moron music, which is styled Jewish jazz and swing.
Non-Jewish music is stigmatized as "highbrow." The people are fed from day to
day on the moron suggestiveness that flows in a slimy flood out of "Tin Pan
Alley," the head factory of filth in New York which is populated by the "Abies,"
the "Izzies," and the 'Moes" who make up the composing staffs of the various
institutions. "Tin Pan Alley" is the name given to the region in Twenty-Eighth
Street, between Broadway and Sixth Avenue, where the first Yiddish song
manufacturers began business. Flocks of young girls, who thought they could
sing, and others, who thought they could write song poems, came to the
neighborhood allured by the dishonest advertisements that promised more than
the budding Yiddish promoters could fulfill. Needless to say, scandal became
rampant; as it always does when so-called "Gentile" girls are reduced to the
necessity of seeking favors from the Jew. It was the constant shouting of
voices, the hilarity of "parties," the banging of pianos and the blaring of
trombones that gave the district the name of "Tin Pan Alley." All America is
now one great Tin Pan Alley, its entertainment, its youth, its politics, a
blare of moronic Judaism.
The diabolical cunning, with which an unclean atmosphere is
created and sustained through all classes of society and by the same
influence, will not be overlooked by any observer. There is something Satanic
about it, something calculated with demonic shrewdness.
And the stream flows on and on, growing worse and worse, to
the degradation of the non-Jewish public and the increase of Jewish fortunes.
Ministers, educators, reformers, parents, citizens are
amazed at the growth of looseness among the people, and rail at the evil
results. They see the evil product and they attack the product. They rail at
the young people who go in for this eroticism and suggestiveness. They deplore
the sexual license, the delinquency and the infantilism of the younger people.
But all this has a source! Why not attack the source? When a nation is bathed
in sights, sounds and ideas of a certain character, drenched in them and
drowned in them, by systematic, deliberate, organized intent, the point of
attack should be the cause, not the effect.
Yet, that is precisely where the point of attack has not
been made, presumably because of lack of knowledge, possibly because of fear.
It is little use blaming the people. The people are what
they are made. Give the liquor business full sway and you have a population
that drinks and carouses. The population could be turned into drug addicts if
the same freedom was given to the illicit narcotic ring as is now given to the
Yiddish popular song manufacturers. In such a condition it would be stupid to
attack the addicts; common sense would urge the exposure of the panderers.
A dreadful narcotizing of moral modesty and the application
of powerful aphrodisiacs have been involved in the present craze for crooning
songs a stimulated craze. The victims are everywhere. But too few of the
opponents of this moral poison see the futility of scolding the young people
thus diseased.
Common sense dictates a cleaning out, and a clearing out,
of the sources of the disease. The source is in the Yiddish group of song
manufacturers who control the whole output and who are responsible for the
whole matter from poetry to profits.
NOT SO "POPULAR"
Next to the moral indictment against the so-called
"popular" song is the indictment that it "not popular there is no spontaneous
popularity, public taste is not so discriminating. It is artificial popularity
by constant plugging. It is a mere mechanical drumming on the minds of the
public. It is flung at them at every movie and from every stage. It is
advertised in flaring posters, gramophone records shriek forth day and night,
dance bands plug it, radios plug it, and by sheer dint of repetition and
suggestion the song catches on until it is replaced by another. It is the old
game of changing the styles to speed up business and make the people buy.
Nothing lasts in the Yiddish game styles of clothing, movies nor songs; it is
always something "new" to stimulate the flow of money from the popular pocket
into the moron music makers' coffers.
Two facts about the "popular" song are known to all: first,
that for the most part it is indecent and the most active agent of moral
miasma in the country, or if not the most active, then neck and neck with the
"movies"; second, that the "popular" song industry is an excessively Jewish
industry.
There is work here for the Anti-Defamation League! That
League knows how to put the screws on anyone who disparages the Jews! From
important publishers down to inconsequential country newspapers, the
Anti-Defamation League makes itself felt. There is work for it in the movies
and the theater and popular song industries. Why does not the League put the
screws on those Jews who have degenerated the movies and debauched the people
in their "arts," sports, and entertainments? On those who have brought shame
on the racial name? Why not? Is the answer that only non-Jews are to be
controlled, and Jews let to run loose? Is the answer that the gentle Gentiles
can be curbed as by bridle and bit and the Jews cannot? American Jewry is
desperately afraid of opening a single seam in its armour by means of a single
investigation or reform. They are afraid of how far the fire of correction may
spread!
"To prevent them from really thinking out anything
themselves, we shall deflect their attention to amusements, games, pastimes,
excitements and people's palaces. Such intends will distract their minds
completely from questions on which we might be obliged to struggle with them.
Becoming less and less accustomed to independent thinking, people will express
themselves in unison with us because we alone offer new lines of thought of
course through persons whom they do not consider as in any way connected with
us. "The 13th Protocol
Chapter 12
LIQUOR, GAMBLING, VICE
AND CORRUPTION
The Jew is the world's enigma. Poor in his masses, yet he
controls the world's finances. Scattered abroad without country or official
government, yet he presents a unity of race continuity which no other people
has achieved. Poor some centuries living under legal disabilities in almost
every land, he emerged to become the power behind many a throne.
The single description, which will include a larger
percentage of Jews than members of any other race, is this: he is in business.
From the sale of old clothes to the control of international trade and
finance, the Jew is supremely gifted for business. More than any other race he
exhibits a decided aversion to industrial employment, which he balances by an
equally decided adaptability to trade.
The Gentile boy is prepared to work his way up, taking
employment in the productive or technical departments; but the Jewish boy
prefers to begin as a salesman, clerk, anything so long as it is connected
with the commercial side of the business.
In America alone most of the big business, the trusts, the
banks, the natural resources and the chief agricultural products, especially
tobacco, cotton and sugar, are in the control of Jewish financiers or their
agents. Jewish journalists are a large and powerful group here. Large numbers
of department stores are held by Jewish firms, and many of them, if not most,
are run under Gentile names.
Jews are the largest and most numerous landlords of
residential property in the whole country. They are supreme in the
entertainment world. They absolutely control the circulation of publications
throughout the country. More powerful than any race among us, they receive a
daily amount of favorable publicity, which would be impossible did they not
have the facilities for creating and distributing it themselves.
Werner Sombart, a pro-Jewish writer, in his "Jews and
Modern Capitalism," says: "If the conditions in America continue to develop
along the same lines as in the last generation, if the immigration statistics
and the same proportion of births among all the nationalities remain the same,
our imagination may picture the United States of 50 or 100 years hence as a
land inhabited only by Slavs, Negroes and Jews, wherein the Jew will naturally
occupy the position of economic leadership."
The Jew is the only original internationalist capitalist,
but as a rule he prefers not to emblazon that fact upon the skies; the
arresting fact about the Jew is his world wide unchallenged power coupled with
comparative numerical inferiority.
JEWS AND THE BOOTLEGGING EVIL
The claim made for the Jews that they are a sober race may
be true, but that has not obscured two facts concerning them; namely, that
they usually constitute the liquor dealers of countries where they live in
numbers, and that in the United States they were the only race exempted from
the operations of the Prohibition Law. In general, the Jews are on the side of
liquor and always have been. They are the steadiest drinkers of all.
That is why they were able to secure exemption from the
Prohibition Laws; their religious ceremonies require them to drink an amount,
which the law considered equal to 10 gallons a year. So the Prohibition Law of
the United States, which was a part of the Constitution of the United States,
was made legally ineffective to the extent of 10 gallons a year to a Jew.
Racial privilege? No, the Jews did not raise that scare then, during the
profitable Prohibition era. They knew it was easy to get 100 gallons through a
10gallon loophole. In fact, millions of gallons of bootleg liquor came through
that 10 gallon loop-hole.
It came as a surprise to the American people that the
liquor business of the world had been in the hands of the Jews. In the United
States the liquor business was almost exclusively in the hands of Jews for 25
years prior to Prohibition during the period, in fact, when the liquor trade
was giving point and confirmation to the more extreme Prohibition arguments!
In the volume, "The Conquering Jew," published by Funk &
Wagnalls Company in 1916, John Foster Fraser writes: "The Jews are masters of
the whisky trade in the United States. Eighty per cent of the members of the
National Liquor Dealers' Association are Jews. It has been shown that sixty
per cent of the business of distilling and wholesale trade in whisky is in the
hands of Jews. As middlemen they control the wine product of California. Jews
visit the tobacco growing States and buy up nearly all the leaf tobacco, so
that the great tobacco companies have to buy the raw product from them. The
Jews have a grip on the cigar trade."
It was also true of Europe, especially in Russia, Rumania
and Poland. The Jewish Encyclopedia states that "The establishment of the
government liquor monopoly (in Russia in 1896) deprived thousands of Jewish
families of a livelihood."
They controlled the liquor traffic, the vodka business
which undermined Russia. In Rumania the whole "Jewish Question" was the liquor
question. In Poland the same was true. In the United States whisky also became
Jewish in the 19th century.
HOW THE JEWISH LIQUOR TRUST WORKED
An alcoholic spirit from grain may be made in any climate
and by many methods.
Neutral spirits, high wines and alcohol, are not indigenous
anywhere. They can be made in any back room or cellar, in a very little time.
Little care is required. A concoction of drugs and spirits, colored and
flavored, fraudulently labeled "whisky" and passed over the bar, is a crime
against distilling, against the human nervous system, and against society. As
far back as 1904, Dr. Wiley, then chief of the United States Bureau of
Chemistry, had a great deal to say about this. Few paid any attention to him
because he did not point out that the evil he was attacking was fostered by a
single class of men bent on gain at the cost of ruin to an American industry
and to countless thousands of American citizens. The public supposed that Dr.
Wiley was discussing a technical matter, which interested American distillers
only. It might have vastly interested the American citizens if anyone had but
had the clear vision and the courage to expose the great Jewish whisky
conspiracy.
OLD NAMES BOUGHT UP
The Jewish character of the whisky business since as far
back as the Civil War may be visualized by the simple expedient of noting how
many of the better known brands have at various dates come under Jewish
control. It is an alarming list. Any citizen in any city of any size will have
no trouble in confirming the statement that most of the rectifiers and
wholesalers and brokers in the whisky trade of his city were, and still are,
Jews. It is not only the fact that the liquor business is controlled by Jews
that assumes importance, but it is in the additional fact that there was
spread over America the machinery of a vicious system which while it was
destined to ruin the liquor business, also ruined hundreds of thousands of
citizens who trusted that "pure and unadulterated" meant what the words were
intended to convey. Of course the stuff was "pure and unadulterated." So is
carbolic acid but it is not whisky.
Prohibition came sweeping the saloon away, but not
depriving the Jewish compounder of his profits. Prohibition was swept away but
the booze rackets remained.
"NIGGER GIN"
In "Collier's Weekly," during the year 1908, solid truths
appeared, which are in point today as proofs of what was transpiring.
"Collier's Weekly" was the first journal in the land to print the names of
Jews in connection with the liquor debauchery of the country. Even so, it had
been going on a very long time. There was a specially scathing attack on what
was called "Nigger gin," a peculiarly vile beverage which was compounded to
act upon the Negro in a most vicious manner. The author, Will Irwin, spoke of
this gin as "The king iniquity in the degenerated liquor traffic of these
United States."
This author and Collier's started a new fashion in giving
publicity not only to the names of certain brands of liquors, but also the
names of the men who made them all were Jews! The maker of one brand of
"nigger gin" which had spurred certain Negroes on to the nameless crime was
one Lee Levy. Mr. Irwin detailed some of his experiences investigating the gin
sold by a number of companies, all bearing Jewish names. The gin was cheap;
its labels bore lascivious suggestions and were decorated with highly indecent
portraiture of white women. "I never saw it in any saloon which bars the
Negro," he wrote. Widely sold brands of cheap, noxious gins and other liquors
made by and brazenly sold under Jewish names, caused newspaper and police
comments upon the peculiar lawlessness among negroes. With reference to the
Negro Question, "nigger gin," the product of Jewish poisoned liquor factories,
was its most provocative element.
The date of the appearance of this gin on the United States
market is the period when Negro outbursts and subsequent lynchings became
serious. The localities where this gin was sold are those where the disorders
prevailed.
THE REASONED ANSWER
The ancient Jewish policy of Divide Conquer Destroy tells
the story of the liquor traffic. Jewish influence divided between distilling
and compounding, drove out distilling, and in the end destroyed the traffic as
a legalized entity opening the way for the mass organized bootlegger,
gangster, and the lawlessness which created today's evil world.
It is extremely simple, so simple that it is overlooked.
"Divide and Conquer," is the formula as the Jewish leaders conceive it, as,
indeed, it is stated in the Protocols. The public is being constantly deceived
by an appearance of complexity, where there is none. When you find the
fever-bearing mosquito, yellow fever is no longer a mystery. That which
succumbs to complete Judaization, as Jewish leaders conceive it, may deserve
to fall. The justification of its destruction may appear in the possibility of
its Judaization.
The maintenance of the idea of drink in the minds of the
people is due to Jewish propaganda. There is not a dialogue on the stage or
screen that does not drip of drink patter. The idea of the abuse of drink will
be maintained by means of the Jewish stage, Jewish jazz and Jewish comics,
until somebody comes down hard upon it as being incentive of treason.
JEWISH GAMBLERS
CORRUPT AMERICAN SPORTS
There are men in the United States who say that baseball
has received its death wound and is dying out of the lists of respectable
sports. There are other men who say that American baseball can be saved if a
clean sweep is made of the Jewish influence, which has dragged it through a
period of bitter shame and demoralization.
Whether baseball as a first class sport is killed and will
survive only as a cheapjack entertainment; or whether baseball possesses
sufficient intrinsic character to rise in righteous wrath and cast out the
danger that menaces it, will remain a matter of various opinions. But there is
one certainty, namely, that the last and most dangerous blow dealt baseball
was curiously notable for its Jewish character.
Baseball is a trivial matter compared with some of the
facts that are waiting publication, yet is it possible to see the operation of
the Jewish Idea in baseball as clearly as in any other field. The process is
the same, whether in war or politics, in finance or in sports.
To begin with, the Jews are not sportsmen. This is not set
down in complaint against them, but merely as analysis. It may be a defect in
their character, or it may not; it is nevertheless a fact which discriminating
Jews unhesitatingly acknowledge. Whether this is due to their physical
lethargy, their dislike of unnecessary physical action, or their cast of mind,
others may decide; the Jew is not naturally an out of door sportsman; if he
takes up golf it is because his station in society calls for it, not that he
really likes it; and if he goes in for collegiate athletics, as some of the
younger Jews are doing, it is because so much attention has been called to
their neglect of sports that the younger generation thinks it necessary to
remove that occasion of remark.
And yet, the bane of American sports is the presence of a
certain type of Jew, not as a participant but as an exploiter and corrupter.
There is a very full case made out in justification of the use of the terms
"exploiter" and "corrupter" with regard to baseball. But it would be just as
easy to make out the same sort of case with regard to wrestling and horse
racing and professional pugilism. Wrestling is so completely ruled by Jews as
to have become an outlawed sport. The story of wrestling is not only the story
of demoralization of a sport but also the story of wholesale defrauding of the
public. The same is true of horseracing. The whole atmosphere of the sport is
dishonest. The horses remain the only well bred creatures connected with it.
Yet why should the art of breeding and training and testing
fine horses be debasing? Only because a certain class saw in it a chance to
play on the weakness of men for the sake of gain.
That explains the presence of the Jew in modern sports and
it also explains why the Jewish Idea in sports, instead of being preservative,
is corruptive. The Jew saw money where the sportsman saw fun and skill. The
Jew set out to capitalize rivalry and to commercialize contestant zeal. It
would seem to be high time that organized Jewry should undertake to control or
repudiate those Jews who have been most instrumental in corrupting and nearly
destroying our cleanest, most manly public sports
It is worth noting that in Chicago, where the Jewish
Anti-Defamation League has its headquarters, there was not a word of reproof
sent out from Jews to the Jewish culprits chiding them for their activities.
Not a word. But at the same time the pressure of the Anti-Defamation League
was heavy on the whole American newspaper press to prevent the public
statements that the whole baseball scandal was a Jewish performance from
beginning to end. Heavy Jewish betting, the bribing of players, the buying of
clubs, the cheating of the public, has been proved time and again in American
courts. All along the line of investigation into sporting scandals the names
of Jews are plentifully sprinkled.
If "fans" wish to know the trouble with American baseball,
they have it in three words too much Jew. "Gentile fronts"' may rant out their
parrot like pro-Jewish propaganda; the fact is that a sport is clean and
helpful until it begins to attract Jewish investors and exploiters and then it
goes bad. The two facts have occurred in pairs too frequently in America and
under too many dissimilar circumstances to have their relationship doubted.
There are no variations on the Jewish corruption of American sports,
principally baseball, racing, boxing and wrestling. In the fixing of results,
the swindling of gamblers, the staging of frauds, the rottenness has been
discovered between the Jewish investors and the venal contestants.
It should be emphasized that the principal Jewish abuses
are nationwide. This was shown in the United States Government's investigation
of the White Slave Traffic the bootlegging business, racetrack gambling,
baseball pools all a national network for the catching of "suckers." There is
nothing unusual in this Jewish activity from the clever "high ups" to the
degenerate "low downs"; they are all part of a national group. They are part
of the national machinery organized and operated for the purpose of separating
"Gentile boobs" from their money.
If there were no "Gentile boobs," or if the "Gentile boob"
would only take a straight look at the man behind the nationwide spider web,
the gamblers and the Jewish sport purveyors would be in another kind of
business; with perhaps less money to flaunt in the faces of honest people.
Years before the public scandals broke, the Jew had crowded
into all the lucrative sports; he remains in control of them, but only on the
commercial side, seldom if ever in sympathy with sport as a real sportsman.
The Jews are not even real gamblers, they are not sportsmen enough to gamble;
they are the "sure thing" men. The "Gentile boobs" who walk into their traps
are the people who provide the money. Even in the field of money the Jew is
not a sport he is a gangster, ringing a gang of his ilk round him.
WRESTLING
Wrestling is so tightly controlled by Jewish managers that
a real wrestler is absolutely barred out, for fear he will be able to show
that the handful of wrestlers hired by the Jewish Sports Trust are not
wrestlers at all, but only impositions on the good nature of the public. The
rottenness of the ancient sport of clean wrestling has surfaced in such
disgusting orgies as "all in" and "mud" wrestling and, lately, wrestling
contests between screaming viragos of the female sex. Wrestling is as much a
Jewish business controlled in its every part as the manufacture of clothing.
Despite unending graft scandals baseball is still America's
Number One sport. It cannot be killed as busyness; it will always draw a gang
on an afternoon, particularly a Sunday afternoon. It can be pepped up and
'Jazzed" up to make it quite a show. But it can, it is being, killed as a
sport, and those who value the game as a sport should wish its utter
destruction rather than consent that it becomes the rendezvous for the gang
that now fills the Jew controlled burlesque houses. Baseball as a business has
become a danger in American life, a mob center, a hangout for the disorderly
and criminal classes, as the racetrack and boxing ring have long since been.
The disease is caused by the Jewish characteristic, which
spoils everything by ruthless commercial exploitation. The disease may be too
far-gone for any cure.
"People of all opinions and all doctrines are ads our
service, restorers of monarchy, demagogues, Socialists, Communism and other
Utopians. We have put them all to work. Every one of them from his point of
view is undermining the last remnant of authority, is trying to overthrow all
existing order. All the governments have been tormented by these actions. But
we will not give them peace until they recognize our super government." The
9th Protocol "When we introduced the poison oil liberalism into the government
organism, its entire political complexion changed." The 10th Protocol.
Chapter 13
THE WORLD'S FOREMOST
PROBLEM
Anyone who essays to discuss the Jewish
Question in the United States or anywhere else must be fully prepared to be
regarded as "anti-Semite," a "Jew baiter." Nor need encouragement be looked
for from politicians, people or Press. The people who are awake to the subject
at all prefer to wait and see how it all turns out. There is a vague feeling
that to use the word "Jew" openly, or to expose it nakedly in print, is
somehow improper. Polite evasions like "Hebrew" and "Semite" (both of which
are subject to the criticism of inaccuracy) are timidly assayed, and people
pick their way gingerly as if the whole subject were forbidden, until some
courageous thinker comes along with the word "Jew," and then the constraint is
relieved and the air cleared.
The word "Jew" is not an epithet; it is a name, ancient and
descriptive, with a significance for every period of human history, past,
present and to come.
The chief difficulty in writing about the Jewish Question
is the super sensitiveness of Jews and non-Jews concerning the whole matter.
There is probably not a newspaper in America, and certainly none of the
advertising mediums, which are called magazines, which would have the temerity
even to breathe seriously the fact that such a Question exists. The Press in
general is open to fulsome editorials in favor of everything Jewish, while the
Jewish Press, which is numerous in the United States, takes care of the
vituperative end.
The idea seems to be fixed in the Jew by inheritance that
any public discussion of the Jewish Question is organized and inspired by a
Jew hater. That idea is sought to be fixed in the Gentile by propaganda that
any writing which does not simply cloy and drip sirrupy sweetness towards
things Jewish is born of prejudice and hatred. It is, therefore, 'full of
lies, insult, insinuation, and constitutes an instigation to massacre." These
terms can be found in current Jewish editorials.
WHAT IS
"ANTI-SEMITISM"?
Anti-Semitism is a term, which is bandied about too
loosely. If it continues to be used indiscriminately and vituperatively about
all who attempt to discuss Jewish characteristics and Jewish world power, it
will, in time, arrive at the estate of respectability and honor. It may be a
useful clearing of the ground to define what anti-Semitism is not.
1. It is not a recognition of the Jewish Question. If it
were, then it could be set down that the bulk of the American people are
destined to become anti-Semites, for they are beginning to recognize the
existence of a Jewish Question and will steadily do so in increasing numbers
as the Question is forced on them from the various practical angles of their
lives. The Question is here. We may be honestly blind to it. We may be timidly
silent about it. We may even make dishonest denial of it. But it is here and
in time all will have to recognize it. In time the polite "hush, hush," of
oversensitive or intimidated circles will not be powerful enough to suppress
it.
But to recognize that Question will not mean that we have
gone over to a national campaign of hatred and enmity against the Jews. It
will only mean that a stream of tendency which has been flowing through our
civilization has at last accumulated bulk and power enough to challenge
attention, to call for some decision with regard to it, to call for the
adoption of a policy which will not repeat the mistakes of the past and yet
forestall any possible menace of the future.
2. The public discussion of the Jewish Question is not
"anti-Semitism." Publicity is sanitary. But the kind of publicity given to
certain aspects of the Jewish Question in this country has been very
misleading. It has been discussed more fully in the Jewish Press than
elsewhere, but not with candor or breadth of vision. The two dominant notes
sounded over and over again with monotonous regularity are Gentile unfairness
and Christian prejudice. It is fortunate for the Jews generally that the
Jewish Press does not circulate very widely among Gentiles, for it is probably
the one established agency in the United States which, without altering its
program in the least, could stir up anti-Jewish sentiment by the very simple
expedient of a general reading among non-Jews. Jewish writers writing for
Jewish readers present unusual material for the study of race consciousness
and its accompaniment of contempt for other races.
On the side of the daily Press, there has been no serious
discussion at all. When it mentions the Jews, it has stock complimentary
phrases for the purpose. The publicity given to the Question in this country
consists in misrepresentative criticism of the Gentiles by the Jewish Press,
and misrepresentative praise of the Jews by the non-Jewish Press. An
independent effort to give constructive publicity cannot, therefore, be laid
to anti-Semitism, even when some of the statements, which are made in the
course of it, arouse resentment of Jewish readers.
3. Nor is it anti-Semitism to say that the suspicion is
abroad in every capital of civilization, and the certainty is firmly held by a
number of important men, that there is active in the world a plan to control
the world, not by territorial acquisition, not by military aggression, not by
governmental subjection, not even by economic control in the scientific sense,
but by control of the machinery of commerce and exchange. It is not
anti-Semitism to say that, nor to present the evidence, which supports that,
nor to bring the proof of that. Those who could best disprove it, if it were
not true, are the International Jews themselves, but they have not disproved
it.
WHY DISCUSS THE JEWISH
QUESTION?
Because it is here, and because its emergence into public
thought should contribute to its solution, and not to a continuance of those
bad conditions which surround the Question in almost every country. The Jewish
Question has existed in the United States for a very long time. Jews
themselves have known it, even if Gentiles have not. There have been periods
in our own country when it has broken forth with a sullen sort of strength
that presaged dark things to come. Many signs portend that it is approaching
an acute stage.
Not only does the Jewish Question touch those matters that
are common knowledge, such as finance and commercial control, usurpation of
political power, monopoly of necessities, and autocratic direction of the very
news that the American people read; but it reaches into cultural regions and
so touches the very heart of American life. The Question reaches down to South
America and threatens to become an important factor in Pan American relations.
It is interwoven with much of the menace of organized and calculated disorder
that troubles the nations today. It is not of recent growth, but its roots go
deep, and the long Past of the Problem is counterbalanced by prophetic hopes
and programs that involve a very deliberate and creative view of the future.
THE ANSWER TOO MUCH
POWER!!
Their heritage of tolerance has something to do with the
extreme nervousness about public discussion of the Jewish Question on the part
of many Gentiles, but perhaps their instinctive sense of the difficulty
involved has more to do with it. The Gentile attitude is best expressed by the
desire for silence "Why discuss it at all?" Such an attitude is itself proof
that here is a Problem we would evade if we could. Why discuss it at all? The
keen thinker clearly sees in the implications of such a question, the
existence of a Problem whose discussion or suppression will not always be
within the choice of easygoing minds.
Wherever you read of the Jewish Question being resolutely
approached in the history of countries which have ever tackled it, wherever
you go in the world today in any country where the Jewish Question has come to
the forefront as a vital issue, you will discover that the principal cause is
the outworking of the Jewish genius to achieve the power of control. Here in
the United States is the fact of this remarkable minority attaining in 50
years a degree of control that would be impossible to a ten times larger group
of any other race. That creates the Jewish Question here.
No similar minority of any people would occasion comment,
because we would not meet with a representative of them wherever we went in
high places in the innermost secrecy of the councils of the Big Four at
Versailles; in the United States Supreme Court; in the councils of the White
House; in the vast dispositions of world finance wherever there is power to
get or use. We meet the Jew everywhere in the upper circles, literally
everywhere where there is power. And that is where the Jewish question begins
in very simple terms how does the Jew so habitually and so resistlessly
gravitate to the highest places? Who puts him there? Why is he put there? What
does he do there? What does the fact of his being there mean to the worlds
THAT is the Jewish Question in its origin. From these points it goes on to
others, and whether the trend becomes pro-Jewish or anti-Semitic depends on
the amount of prejudice brought to the inquiry, and whether it becomes
pro-Humanity depends on the amount of insight and intelligence.
EDITOR'S NOTE: The original was published in June 1920.
The comment is even more applicable to the present United Nations setup a more
formidable organization because of its greater power through American
membership.
The use of the word Humanity in connection with the word
"Jew" usually throws a side meaning, which may not be intended. In this
connection it is usually understood that humanity ought to be shown toward the
Jew. There is just as great an obligation upon the Jew to show hum humanity
toward the whole human race.
The Jew has been too long accustomed to think himself as
exclusively the claimant on the humanitarianism of society; society has a
large claim against him that he cease his exclusiveness, that he cease
exploiting the world, that he cease making Jewish groups the end and all of
his gains, and that he begins to fulfill, in a sense his exclusiveness has
never yet enabled him to fulfill, the ancient prophecy he boasts that through
him all the nations of the earth should be blessed.
The Jew cannot go on forever fulfilling the role of
suppliant for the world's humanitarianism, he must himself show that quality
to a society which seriously suspects his higher and more powerful groups of
exploiting it with a pitiless rapacity, which in its wide flung and long drawn
out distress may be described as an economic pogrom against a rather helpless
humanity.
WHY THE "INTERNATIONAL JEW"?
There has been used in this series the term "International
Jew." It is susceptible of two interpretations; one, the Jew wherever he may
be; the other, the Jew who exercises international control.
The real contention of the world is with the latter and his
satellites, whether Jew or Gentile. This International type of Jew, this
grasper after world control, this actual possessor and wielder of world
control is a very unfortunate connection for his race to have. And the
significance of this is that this type does not grow anywhere else than on a
Jewish stem. There is no other racial or national type, which puts forth this
kind of person.
It is not merely that there are a few Jews among
international financial controllers; it is that these world controllers are
exclusively Jews. Since world control is an ambition, which has only been
achieved by Jews, and not by any of the methods usually adopted by would be
world conquerors, it becomes inevitable that the question should center in
that race.
It is not the point to insist that in any list of rich men
there are often more Gentiles than Jews; we are not talking about merely rich
men who have, many of them, gained their riches by serving a System, we are
talking about those who control and it is perfectly apparent that merely to be
rich is not to control. The world controlling Jew has riches, but he also has
something much more powerful than that.
The International Jew rules not because he is rich, but
because in a most marked degree he possesses the commercial and masterful
genius of his race, and avails himself of a racial loyalty and solidarity the
like of which exists in no other human group. He rules, at the top of affairs
in every country worthwhile, by virtue of certain qualities, which are
inherent in the Jewish nature. Every Jew has these qualities even if not in
the supreme sense, just as every Englishman has Shakespeare's tongue but not
in Shakespeare's degree. And thus it is impracticable, if not impossible, to
consider the International Jew without laying the foundations broadly upon
Jewish character and psychology.
We may discount at once the too common accusation that this
greater form of Jewish success is built upon dishonesty. It is impossible to
indict the whole Jewish people or any other on a wholesale charge. No one
knows better than the Jew how widespread is the belief that Jewish methods of
business are all unscrupulous. There is no doubt a possibility of a great deal
of unscrupulousness existing without actual legal dishonesty, but it is
altogether possible that the reputation the Jewish people have long borne in
this respect may have had other sources than actual and persistent dishonesty.
To indicate one of these possible sources: The Jew at trade is naturally
quicker than most other men. It is said that there are other races, which are
as nimble at a trade as is the Jew, but the Jew does not live much among them.
Now, it is human nature for the man with slower, easygoing traditions to
believe that the quicker man is too deft by far, and to become suspicious of
his deftness. The slower mind is likely to conceive that the man, who sees so
many legitimate twists and turns to a trade, may also see and use a convenient
number of illegitimate twists and turns. The Jews, as the records show for
centuries, were a keen people in trade. The nimble eagerness of the Jew for
trade bustled into the midst of trade traditions; he broke them all wherever
he went. He went after trade; the old leisurely tradition was to make trade
come to the trader. Everyone suspects the "sharp" fellow even though his
sharpness may be entirely honest. A man who would break trade traditions would
stop at nothing! The Jew was anxious to sell. If he could not sell one article
to a customer, he had another on hand to offer him. The old tradition was that
it was strictly unethical and unbusiness like to handle more than one line of
goods, or to deal in more than one "trade"; that it was contemptible and
underhand to go out and get a brother tradesman's customers away from him. It
is as easy as child's play to connect this energy with dishonesty. The Jew
went after trade, pursued it, persuaded it. He was the originator of "quick
turnover and quick profit." He originated the installment plan. The Jew's
shops became bazaars, forerunners of our modern department stores, and the old
custom of one shop for one line of goods was broken up.... the Jew was not
playing the game, the staid old fashioned merchant thought. As a matter of
fact he was playing the game, the game to get it all into his own hands, which
he has practically done.
The Jew has shown that same ability ever since his entry
into trade in the various countries he has established himself down the
centuries. His power of analyzing the money currents amounts to an instinct.
His establishment in one country represented another base from which the
members of his race could operate. Whether by the natural out workings of
innate gifts or the deliberate plan of race unity and loyalty, all the Jewish
trading communities and relations, and as these trading communities increased
in wealth, prestige and power, as they formed relations with governments and
great interest in the countries where they operated, they simply put more
power into the central community wherever it might be located, now in Spain,
now in Holland, now in England.
Whether by intention or not, they became more closely
allied than the branches of one business could be, because of the cement of
racial unity; the bond of racial brotherhood cannot in the very nature of
things exist among the s Gentiles as it exists among the Jews.
Gentiles never think of themselves as Gentiles, and never
feel that they owe anything to another Gentile gas such; wherein lies their
vulnerability. Thus they have been convenient agents of Jewish schemes at
times and in places when it was not expedient that the Jewish controllers
should be publicly known; but they have never been successful competitors of
the Jew in the field of world control.
From these separated Jewish communities went power to the
central community where the master bankers and the master analysts of
conditions lived. And back from the central community flowed information of an
invaluable character and assistance wherever needed. It is not difficult to
understand how, in such conditions, the nation that did not deal kindly with
the Jews was made to suffer, and the nation that yielded to them their fullest
desire was favored by them. They have made many nations feel the power of
their displeasure and this system exists in greater power today. The
coordination of Jewish activity has been a harmful thing for the world. This
is the element, which is bringing the Jewish Question to the bar of public
opinion. May the International Jew go on as he has gone, or does his duty to
the world require another use of his success?
POWER FOLLOWS THE INTERNATIONAL JEW
It is an important fact to be noted in connection with the
"persecution" and consequent wanderings of the Jews about Europe that wherever
they wandered the center of business seemed to go with them!
When the Jews were free in Spain, there was the world's
gold center. When Spain drove out the Jews, Spain lost her financial
leadership and has never regained it.
Students of the economic history of Europe have always been
puzzled to discover why the center of trade should have shifted from Spain,
Portugal and Italy, up to the northern countries of Holland, Germany and
England They have sought for the cause in many things, but none seemed to be
completely explanatory. When it is shown that the change was coincident with
the expulsion of the Jews from the South and their flight to the North, when
it is known that upon the Jews' arrival the northern countries began a
commercial life, which has flourished to our day, the explanation does not
seem difficult. Time and again it has been proved to be the fact that when the
Jews were forced to move, the center of the world's precious metals moved with
them.
It is also to be noted that the era of greatest national
spiritual culture is shown during the period when the Jews were expelled from
England and Spain. These two great countries have given much to the world, the
best of it they gave during their freedom from contact with Jewish ideas.
"WHEN AMERICA AWAKES!"
It is clearly proved that in the world today there is a
central force, which is playing a vast and closely organized game, with the
world as its table and universal control for its stakes. Civilized people have
long ago lost confidence in the argument that "economic conditions" are
responsible for all the changes that occur. Under the camouflage of "economic
law" a great many phenomena have been accounted for which were not due to any
"law" whatever, except the law of the selfish human will as operated by the
men who have the purpose and the power to use the nation as their vassals.
"Economic" reason no longer explains the condition in which
the world finds itself today. Neither does the ordinary explanation of "the
heartlessness of Capital." "Capital" has endeavored as never before to meet
the demands of "Labor," and labor has gone to extremes in leading capital to
new concessions but what has it advantaged either of them? "Labor" has
heretofore thought that "Capital" was the sky over it, and it made the sky
yield. But behold, there was yet another higher sky which neither capital nor
labor had seen in their struggles with one another. That sky is so far
unyielding.
There is a super capitalism, which is supported wholly by
the fiction that gold is wealth. There is a super government, which is allied
to no government, which is free from them all, and yet which has its hands in
them all. There is a race, a part of humanity, which has never yet been
received as a welcome part, and which has succeeded in raising itself to a
power that the proudest Gentile race has never claimed.
The "labor question," the wage question, the land question,
cannot be settled; no question that confronts the peoples of the world can be
settled, until first of all this matter of an international super capitalistic
government is settled.
"To the victor belongs the spoils" is an old saying. In a
sense it is true that if all this power of control has been gained and held by
a few men of a long despised race, then either they are supermen whom it is
powerless to resist or they are ordinary men whom the rest of the world has
permitted to obtain an undue and unsafe degree of power Unless the Jews are
supermen, the Gentiles will have themselves to blame for what has transpired,
and they can look for rectification in a new scrutiny of the situation and a
candid examination of the experiences of other countries When tracing all the
antisocial and colossally harmful methods of world control to their source, it
is found that the responsible parties all have a common characteristic. Is it
any wonder that the warning, which comes across, the sea "Wait until America
becomes awoke to the Jew!" has a new meaning?
"In this divergence between the Gentiles and ourselves in
ability to think and reason is to be seen clearly the seal of our election as
the chosen people, as higher human beings, in contrast with the Gentiles who
have merely instinctive and animal minds. They observe, but they do not
foresee, and they invent nothing (except perhaps material things). It is clear
from this that nature herself predestined us to rule and guide the world." The
Fourteenth Protocol.
Chapter 14
THE HIGH AND LOW OF
JEWISH MONEY POWER
Humanity has become wise enough to discuss those forms of
physical sickness over which it formerly drew the veil of shame and secrecy,
but political hygiene is not so far advanced. The main source of the sickness
of our national body is charged to be the influence of the Jews, and although
this was apparent to acute minds years ago, it is now said to have gone so far
as to be apparent to the least observing. But while these influences were
undermining the mass of the people, higher influences of Jewish origin were
operating on the government.
The Jewish Problem in the United States is essentially a
city problem; great cities are the areas in which most all national diseases
have their origin. It is characteristic of the Jews to gather in numbers, not
where land is open nor where raw materials are found, but where the greatest
number of people abide. This is a noteworthy fact when considered alongside
the claim that the Gentiles have ostracized them; the Jews congregate in their
greatest numbers in those places and among those people where they complain
they are least wanted!
The explanation most frequently given is this: the genius
of the Jew is to live off people, not off land, nor off the production of
commodities from raw materials, but off people. Let other people till the
soil; the Jew, if he can, will live off the tiller. Let other people toil at
trades and manufacture; the Jew will exploit the fruits of their work. That is
his particular genius. If this genius were described as parasitic, the term
would seem to be justified by a certain fitness.
In no other city of the United States can the Jewish
Problem be studied with greater profit than in the city of New York. There are
more Jews in New York than anywhere else in the world; at least one Jew in
every ten resides in New York. Jews exert more power in New York, and from New
York, than they have ever exerted during the Christian era in any place, with
the exception of present Russia. The Jewish Revolution of Russia was manned
from New York. The Jewish government of Russia was transported almost as a
unit from the lower East Side of New York. The general run of shop keeping,
from the great departmental stores to the smallest "junk" shop, is practically
monopolized by Jews. The legal profession is predominantly Jewish. From news
agencies that distribute news to the newspapers, to the newspaper that prints
it, to the newsstand that distributes the national reading matter, the control
and in most cases the ownership is entirely Jewish. In Wall Street the Jewish
element is both numerous and powerful, as might be expected of a race which
from early days has played an important part in the financial operations of
the world.
THE ROTHSCHILD METHOD
Jewish high finance first touched the United States through
the Rothschilds. Indeed, it may be said that the United States founded the
Rothschild fortunes. As so often occurs in the tale of Jewish riches, the
fortune was founded in war. The first 20 million dollars the Rothschilds ever
had to speculate with was the money paid for Hessian troops to fight against
the American colonies.
Since that first indirect connection with American affairs,
the Rothschilds have often invaded the money affairs of the country, though
always by agents. None of the Rothschild sons thought it necessary to
establish himself in the newly founded United States. Anslem remained in
Frankfort, Solomon chose Vienna, Nathan Mayer went to London, Charles
established himself in Naples, and James represented the family in Paris.
These were the five warlords of Europe for more than a
generation, and their dynasty was continued by their successors.
Rothschild power, as it was once known, has been so
broadened by the entry of other banking families into governmental finance,
that it must now be known not by the name of one family of Jews, but by the
name of the race. Thus it is spoken of as International Jewish Finance, and
its principal figures are described as International Jewish Financiers. Much
of the veil of secrecy, which contributed. So greatly to the Rothschild power
has been stripped away; war finance has been labeled for all time as "blood
money," and the mysterious magic surrounding large transactions between
governments and individuals, by which individual controllers of large wealth
were made the real rulers of the people, has been largely solved and the
plain. Facts disclosed.
The Rothschild method still holds good, however, in that
Jewish institutions are affiliated with their racial institutions in all
foreign countries. As a leading student of financial affairs puts it, the
world of high finance is largely a Jewish world because of the Jewish
financiers "absence from national or patriotic illusions." To the
International Jewish Financier the ups and downs of war and peace between the
nations are hut the changes of the world's financial market; and, as
frequently the movement of stocks is manipulated for purposes of market
strategy, so sometimes international relations are affected for mere financial
gain.
It is known that the First World War was postponed several
times at the behest of international financiers. If it broke out too soon, it
would not involve the states, which the international financiers wished to
involve. Therefore, the masters of gold, the international masters, were
compelled several times to check the martial enthusiasm, which their own
propaganda had aroused. The Jewish Press alleges that there was discovered a
Rothschild Letter dated 1911, and urging the Kaiser against war. The year 1911
was too early. There was no such insistence in 1914.
There is no question whatever of International Jewish
Finance being deeply concerned in the matter of war and revolution this is
never denied as to the past; it is just as true of the present. The league
against Napoleon, for example, was Jewish. Its headquarters were in Holland.
When Napoleon invaded Holland, the headquarters were moved to Frankfort on the
Main. It is remarkable how many of the International Jewish Financiers have
come out of Frankfurt the Rothschilds, the Schiffs, the Speyers, to name but a
few. Jewish influence in German affairs came strongly to the front during the
1914-1918 war. It came with all the directness and attack of a flying wedge,
as if previously prepared. There are no stronger contrasts in the world than
the pure Germanic and pure Semitic races; therefore, there has been no harmony
between the two in Germany, and though Jewish influence became strong in that
country it was not gained without challenge, but Jewish power became paramount
in the Revolution which followed the war. The Revolution would not have come
if they had not brought it. The principal Jewish influences which brought down
German order may be named under three heads: (a) the spirit of Bolshevism
which masqueraded under the name of German Socialism; (b) Jewish ownership and
control of the Press; (c) Jewish control of the food supply and the industrial
machinery of the country. There was a fourth, "higher up," but these worked
upon the German people directly. It will be recalled that the German collapse
in that war was directly due to food starvation and material shortages, and to
industrial unrest. As early as the second year of the war, German Jews were
preaching that German defeat was necessary to the rise of the proletariat.
Strovel declared: "I openly admit that a full victory of the country would not
be in the interest of the Social Democrats." And also: "The exaltation of the
proletariat after a won victory is an impossibility." Revolution is the
expression of the Jews' will to power. Parties are but tools for the Jewish
plan to power. The so-called "dictatorship of the proletariat" is really and
practically the dictatorship of the Jews.
The 1914-1918 war brought about a condition, which threw a
new light on the internationalism of Jewish finance. During the years of
American neutrality there was opportunity to observe the extent of the foreign
affiliations of certain men, and also the extent to which ordinary national
loyalty was subordinated to the business of international finance. That war
really forced a coalition of Gentile capital on one side of the struggle, as
against certain blocks of Jewish capital, which were willing to play both
sides. The old Rothschild maxim: "Do not put all your eggs in one basket,"
becomes perfectly plain when transposed into national and international terms.
Jewish finance treats political parties the same bets on them both, and so
never loses. In the same way Jewish finance never loses a war. Being on both
sides, it cannot miss the winning side, and its terms of peace are sufficient
to cover all advances to the side that lost. This was the significance of the
great swarming of Jews at the Versailles Peace Conference.
But a strange fatality seems to follow all forms of Jewish
supremacy. Just as the capstone is ready to be placed j on the edifice of
Jewish triumphs, something occurs and the structure shrinks. It occurs so
often in Jewish history S that the Jews themselves have been exercised to find
an ex 85 planation. In many cases "anti-Semitism" offers the readiest excuse,
but not always. Just at the present time, when the light which was shed by the
fires of war has revealed so many matters formerly hidden in shadow, the
awakening of world attention is called "anti-Semitism," and the explanation is
given that "after every war the Jew becomes the scape goat" a curious
admission which would lead a less self centered people to inquire, Why?
SCOPE OF JEWISH MONEY POWER
In the firm of Kuhn, Loeb and Company, Jewish finance in
the United States reached its high water mark. The head of this firm was the
late Jacob Schiff, who was born in Frankfort the Main and whose father was one
of the Rothschild brokers. One of Jacob Schiff's associates, Otto Kahn, was
bourn in Mannheim, and was early associated with the Speyers, who also
originated in Frankfort and who came to great power in England during the
reign of Edward VII. Another associate, Felix Warburg, married into Jacob
Schiff's family, and the Warburgs became some of the most influential members
of America's diplomatic representatives.
Early flank movements of Jewish financiers in America
sought out other objectives in foreign countries whose future influence on
American affairs proved to be considerable. The first flank movement was
toward Central and South America. The financial assistance, practical and
advisory, offered to Mexico during the most unsatisfactory period of her
relations with the United States was given by Jewish groups. The political
upheavals and the financial arrangements in the tiny but strategically placed
countries of Central America are too notorious even to occasion comment.
It is known that Jacob Schiff gave material assistance to
Japan in the 1905 war with Russia. This was explainable on the ground of good
business and also of a desire to revenge Russia's treatment of the Jews.
Schiff used the opportunity also to instill the principles, which have since
grown up into Bolshevism, into the minds of the Russian prisoners in Japanese
war camps. The attempt to gain influence in Japan, in those distant days, came
off rather badly. The Japs kept the business deal strictly a business dead and
Mr. Jacob Schiff was displeased with Japan generally. The idea at the
beginning of the century appears to have been to add the newly rising Japan to
the string of financial conquests, but the Japanese were credited with knowing
much more about the "Jewish peril" than did the Ignited States. This is well
worth recalling in view of the intensive propaganda which, for years before
the 1914 war and again just before the 1939 war, constantly sought to create
misunderstanding between the United States and the Empire of Japan.
Jewry emerged from the 19141918 war more strongly
entrenched in power, even in the United States, than it was before. In the
world at large the ascendancy of the Jew at the present time is even more
marked. In those countries, which can justly be called unfriendly to the Jew,
now or in the recent past, the rule of the Jew is stronger than anywhere else.
The more they are opposed the more they show their power. At a moment when, as
all Jewish spokesmen inform us, there is a world wave of "anti-Semitism,"
which is their name for a new awakening of people to what has been going on
what should occur but that at the head of the Chief Magistracy of the Worlds a
Jew appears. Nobody seems to know why. Nobody can explain it.
"DISRAELI OF AMERICA" A JEW OF SUPERPOWER
In the United States we had a term of Jewish rule** almost
as absolute as that which exists in Russia. This appears to be a very strong
statement, but it is milder than the facts warrant. And the facts are not of
hearsay origin, nor the product of a biased point of view; they are the fruits
of an inquiry by the lawful officials of the United States who were set aside
in favor of a readymade Jewish Government, and they are forever spread upon
the official records of the United States.
The Sews have proved that the control of Wall Street is not
necessary to the control of the American people, and the person by whom they
proved this was a Wall Street Jew!
This man has been called "the proconsul of Judah in
America." It is said that once, referring to himself, he exclaimed: "Behold
the Disraeli of the United States!"
To a select committee of the Congress of the United States
he said: "I probably had more power than perhaps any other man did to the war;
doubtless that is true."
EDITOR'S NOTE: The League of Nations is referred to in
the original (1920) text and the same factor arises in the present direction
of the "United Nations." The more it changes; the more it is the same thing!
EDITOR'S NOTE: In each instance the 1914-1918 war is
referred to, during the administration of President Wilson. It is a vital fact
that the same man (Baruch) was the right hand man of President Roosevelt
throughout the Roosevelt peace and war administrations!
He did not overstate the case. He did have more power. It
was not all-legal power, this much he admitted. It reached into every home and
store and factory and bank and railway and mine. It touched armies and
governments. It touched recruiting boards. It made and unmade men without a
word. It was power without responsibility and without limit. It was such a
power as compelled the Gentile population to lay bare every secret before this
man and his Jewish associates, giving them an advantage and knowledge that
billions of gold could not buy.
Not one American in a million ever heard of this man before
the entry of the United States into the war in 1917. He glided out of a
certain obscurity unlighted by public service of fame, into the high ruler
ship of the nation at war. The constituted government had little to do with
him save vote the money and do his bidding. He said that men could have
appealed over his head to the President of the United States but, knowing the
situation, men never did.
Who was, who is, this figure, colossal in his way, and most
instructive of the readiness of Judah to take the rule whenever he desires?
His name is Bernard M. Baruch. He was born in South
Carolina in the 1870's, the son of a Jewish doctor, Dr. Simon Baruch. He was
graduated at the College of the City of New York when he was just under 19
years of age. After going down to Wall Street as a clerk and a runner, and
when he "was about 26 or 27," he became a member of the firm of A. A. Housman
and Company. "In about 1900 or 1902" he left the firm, but he had meanwhile
gained a seat on the Stock Exchange.
EDITOR'S NOTE: In the Second World War, in which the man
was all powerful, his close friend, Winston Churchill, was British Prime
Minister. It is significant that the "concentration of industry" system in
Britain threw all commercial secrets into the hands of monopolist cartels, and
the secrets of British military and industrial developments were made freely
available to Jewish manipulators.
He then went into business himself; a statement, which must
be taken literally in view of his testimony that he "Did not do any business
for anybody but myself. I made a study of the corporations engaged in the
production and manufacture of different things, and a study of the men engaged
in them."
Emerging from his evidence before Congress, Baruch's
operations are seen to be in various fields principally in the field of metals
and the organization of various commercial enterprises. He was instrumental
also in the purchase of tobacco companies, various copper, steel tungsten,
rubber and smelting companies, and he was responsible for the building up of
the great industries in rubber in Mexico. As a young man, he is found to be
the master of large sums of money, and there is no indication that he
inherited any. He is very wealthy. What change the war made in his wealth is
not known, but certainly many of his friends and closest associates reaped
great quantities of money from their activities during the war.
DICTATOR BARUCH
Cross examined by the Congress Inquiry it was amply proved
that Baruch's influence over President Wilson made such changes in the
Administration as to make Baruch the most powerful man in the war. The Council
of National Defense eventually became the merest sideshow. It was not a
Council of Americans that ran the war, it was an autocracy headed by a Jew,
with Jews at every strategic point down the line. In his own evidence he
describes one of his visits to the President in 1915.
Mr. Baruch: "I thought a war was coming long before it did.
I explained to him as earnestly as I could that I was very deeply concerned
about the necessity of the mobilization of the industries of the country. The
President listened very attentively and graciously, as he always does.... My
attention was brought to the Council of National Defense The Secretary of War
asked me what I thought of it. I sand I would like to have something
different." A council is a council. Mr. Baruch wanted some thing different. He
did get something different. He got the President to change matters so as to
make Mr. Baruch the "most powerful man in the war." What Baruch did was very
masterly, but it was not in the American manner. No one but a member of his
race would have wanted to do it.
There is no discounting the testimony Baruch gave before
Congress. The President of the United States did exactly what Baruch wanted in
a thousand ways, and what Baruch apparently wanted was a ruling hand on
productive America, and he got it. He got it in a larger way than even Lenin
or his successors ever got in Russia; for here in the United States the people
saw nothing but the patriotic element; they did not see the Jewish Government
looming above them. Yet it was there.
So Baruch did things. Before he got through, he was head
and center of a system of control such as the United States Government never
possessed and never will possess until it changes its character as a free
government. As told by himself, his power consisted in the following
authorities:
1. Authority over the use of capital in the private
business of Americans. (This authority was nominally under the Capital Issues
Committee, the controlling factor of which was another Jew, Eugene Meyer, Jr.)
2. Authority over all materials. This, of course, included
everything. Mr. Baruch was an expert in many of the lines of materials
involved, and had held interests in many of them. In lines where Mr. Baruch
was not an expert he, of course, had other experts in charge Jews. "The
members of that committee were pierced out by myself; the industries did not
pick them out," he stated.
3. Authority over industries. He determined where coal
might be shipped, where steel might be sold, where S industries might be
operated and where not. He said, it is in his recorded testimony, that there
were 361 or 357 lines of industry under his control in the United S States
including "practically every raw material in the S world. I had the final
authority."
4. Authority over the cases of men to be called to mild
tare serge. Baruch virtually pointed out to the Provost Marshall of the United
States, the classes of men to be taken into the army. "We had to decide
virtually the necessity of things," he said. "We had to decide that the less
essential industries would have to be curbed, and it was from them that the
manpower would have to be taken for the army.
It was, of course, necessary that some ruling should be
made, but why one man, why always this one man?
EDITOR'S NOTE: The extension of the "control of industry
and materials system in World War 2 and the development of the methods and
powers of Baruch and his political associates in the "Western Democracies" in
the latter war, make an interesting parallel to the disclosures in Congress
after the first world war. The Plan in progress, ill fact.
5. Authority over the personnel of labor in the count.
"We decided upon a dilution of men with women labor, which
was a thing that had always been fought by the labor unions." "We fixed the
prices for the total production, not alone for the army and the navy, but for
the Allies and the civilian population."
And now behold as complete an illustration of one part of
the Protocols as ever could be found in any Gentile Government: "We will force
up wages which, however, will be of no benefit to the workers, for we will at
the same time cause a rise in the prices of necessities": The 1st Protocol.
It was not only during the war, but also after the
Armistice, that tokens of signal choice were showered on Baruch. He went to
the Versailles Peace Conference as a part of the President's entourage.
Mr. Baruch: "Whenever he asked my advice I gave it. I had
something to do with the reparations clauses. I was the American Commissioner
in charge of what they called the 'Economic Section.' I was a member of the
Supreme Economic Council in charge of raw materials."
Baruch admitted in his evidence that he sat in council with
the men who were negotiating the Peace Treaty and that he participated in the
meeting of the "Big Five" Premiers. Jews were so conspicuous in the American
Mission as to excite comment everywhere. Frenchmen called Versailles the
"Kosher Conference." So numerous and ubiquitous were the International Jews,
headed by Baruch, so firmly established in the inner councils, that the keen
observer, Dr. E. J. Dillon, in his book, "The Inside Story of the Peace
Conference" (Harpers), said this: "It may seem amazing to some readers, but it
i8 none the less a fact, that a considerable number of delegates believed that
the real influences behind the Anglo-Saxon peoples were Semitic." (p. 496).
And again: "Go...the sequence of expedients framed and
enforced in this direction were inspired by the Jews, assembled in Paris for
the purpose of realizing their carefully thought out program, which they
succeeded in having substantially executed. The formula into which this policy
was thrown by the members of the Conference, whose countries it affected, and
who regarded it as fatal to the peace of Eastern Europe, was this: 'Henceforth
the world will be governed by the Anglo-Saxon peoples. Who in their turn, are
swayed by their Jewish elements'." (p. 497).
This is not the whole story by any means.
Why was Baruch chosen to be the first Dictator of the
United States? What had he been, what had he done, that he should have been
chosen as head and front of governmental power in the first world war, the
first major war in which the United States were involved, and which turned
that country from a debtor nation into the most powerful of all time in
military and financial power? And with a minimum of military sacrifice and
comparatively trifling effort His antecedents do not account for it. Neither
his personal nor commercial attainments account for it. What does?
Men who can manipulate this political and money power in
time of war can do so in time of peace. The United States is living under some
of the peace manipulation now. The operating groups, governments, are
bankrupt. Only their power of confiscation keeps them up. The United States
commonly referred to as the richest country in the world, is just as poor as a
government as is any other; it is in debt and borrowing. And its creditors are
constant discounting their obligations and putting it into worse hands than
ever. The amount of our National Debt is the measure of our enslavement to
Jewish World Finance. We live in a democracy, yet loans are contracted that
always cost more than the amount of the loan, and no one has a word to say
about it. We Americans do not know how much interest we pay every year, and we
don't know to whom we pay it.
"We shall handle the Press in the following manner:
1. "We shall saddle it and keep tight reign upon it. We
shall do the same also with other printed matter, for of what use is it to rid
ourselves of attacks in the Press, if we remain exposed to criticism through
pamphlets and books?"
2. "Not one announcement will reach the people save under
our supervision. We have attained this at the present time to the extent that
all news is received through several agencies in which it is centralized from
all parts of the world."
3. "Literature and journalism are two most important
educational forces, and consequently our government will become the owner of
most of the journals. If we permit ten private journals, we shall organize
thirty of our own, and so on. This must not be suspected by the public, for
which reason all the journals published by us will be externally of the most
contrary opinions and tendencies thus evoking confidence in them and
attracting our unsuspecting opponents, who thus will be caught in our trap and
rendered harmless. "The 12th Protocol.
Chapter 15
THE BATTLE FOR PRESS
CONTROL
The first instinctive answer which the Jew
makes to any criticism of his race coming from a non-Jew is that of violence,
threatened or inflicted. This statement will be confirmed by hundreds of
thousands of citizens of the United States who have heard the evidence with
their own ears, seen it with their own eyes.
If the candid investigator of the Jewish Question happens
to be in business, the "boycott" is the first answer of which the Jews seem to
think. Whether it be a newspaper, or a mercantile establishment, or a hotel,
or a dramatic production; or any manufactured article whose maker has adopted
the policy that "my goods are for sale, but not my principles" if there is any
manner of business connection with the student of the Jewish Question, the
first "answer" is "boycott."
The technique of this: a "whispering drive" is first begun.
Disquieting rumors begin to fly thick and fast. "Watch us get him, is the word
that is passed along. Jews in charge of national ticker news services adopt
the slogan of "a rumor a day." All leading news agencies in America are Jew
controlled. Jews in charge of newspapers adopt the policy of Bra slurring
headline a day." Jews in charge of the newsboys on the streets (all the street
concerns are preempted by Jewish "padrones" who permit only their own boys to
sell) give orders to emphasize certain news in their street cries" a new yell
against him every day. "The whole campaign against the critic of
Jewry, whoever he may be, is keyed to the threat, "Watch us
get him."
"The whispering drive," "the boycott," these are the chief
Jewish answers. They constitute the bone and the sinew of that state of mind
in non-Jews that is known as "the fear of the Jews."
BENNETT'S STRUGGLE
This is the story of a boycott, which lasted over a number
of years; it is only one of numerous stories of the same kind, which can be
told of America. There have been even more outstanding cases since this one,
but it dates back to the dawn of Jewish ambitions and power in the United
States and it is the first of the great battles which Jewry waged,
successfully, to snuff out the independent Press.
It concerns the long defunct "New York Herald," one
newspaper to remain independent of Jewish influence in New York. The Herald
enjoyed an existence of 90 years, which was terminated in 1920 by the
inevitable amalgamation. It performed great feats in the world of
newsgathering. It sent Henry M. Stanley to Africa to find Livingstone. It
backed the Jeannette expedition to the Arctic regions. It was largely
instrumental in having the first Atlantic cables laid. Its reputations among
newspapermen was that neither its news nor its editorial columns could be
bought or influenced. But perhaps its greatest feat was the maintenance during
many years of its journalistic independence against the combined attack of New
York Jewry. Its proprietor, the late James Gordon Bennett, a great American
citizen famed for many helpful activities, had always maintained a friendly
attitude toward the Jews of his city. He apparently harbored no prejudices
against them. Certainly he never deliberately antagonized them. But he was
resolved upon preserving the honor of independent journalism. He never bent to
the policy that the advertisers had something to say about the editorial
policy of the paper, either as to influencing it for publication or
suppression. In Bennett's time the American Press was in the majority free.
Today it is entirely Jewish controlled. This control is variously exercised,
sometimes resting only on the owners' sense of expediency. But the control is
there, and for the moment it is absolute. Fifty years ago there were many more
newspapers in New York than there are today, since then amalgamation has
reduced the competition to a select few who do not compete. Lois development
has been the same in other countries, particularly Great Britain.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Following the rise of the "popular"
syndicated "columnist" since 1920, the word is now "smear," it is especially
prominent in political press affairs.
Bennett's Herald, a three-cent newspaper, enjoyed the
highest prestige and was the most desirable advertising medium due to the
class of its circulation. At that time the Jewish population of New York was
less than one-third of what it is today, but there was much wealth represented
in it.
Now, what every newspaperman knows is this: most Jewish
leaders are always interested either in getting a story published or getting
it suppressed. There is no class of people who read the public press with so
careful an eye to their own affairs as do the Jews. The Herald simply adopted
the policy from the beginning of this form of harassment that it was not to be
permitted to sway the Herald from its duty as a public informant. And this
policy had a reflex advantage for the other newspapers in the city.
When a scandal occurred in Jewish circles (and at the turn
of the century growing Jewish influence in America produced many) influential
Jews would swarm into the editorial offices to arrange for the suppression of
the story. But the editors knew that the Herald would not suppress anything
for anybody. What was the use of one paper suppressing if the others would
not? So editors would say: We would be very glad to suppress this story, but
the Herald will use it, so we'll have to do the same in self protection.
However, if you can get the Herald to suppress it, we will gladly do so, too.
But the Herald never succumbed; neither pressure of
influence nor promise of business nor threats of loss availed. It printed the
news.
There was a certain Jewish banker who periodically demanded
that Bennett discharge the Herald's financial editor. The banker was in the
business of disposing of Mexican bonds at a time when such bonds were least
secure. Once when an unusually large number of bonds were to be unloaded on
unsuspecting Americans, the Herald published the story of an impending Mexican
revolution, which presently ensued. The banker frothed at the mouth and moved
every influence he could to change the Herald's financial staff, but was not
able to effect the change even of an office boy.
Once when a shocking scandal involved a member of a
prominent family, Bennett refused to suppress it, arguing that if the episode
had occurred in a family of any other race it would be published regardless of
the prominence of the figures involved. The Jews of Philadelphia secured
suppression there, but because of Bennett's unflinching stand there was no
suppression in New York.
A newspaper is a business proposition. There are some
matters it cannot touch without putting itself in peril of becoming a defunct
concern. This is especially true since newspapers no longer receive their main
support from the public but from the advertisers. The money the reader gives
for the paper scarcely suffices to pay for the amount of white paper he
receives. In this way, advertisers cannot be disregarded any more than the
paper mills can be. As the most extensive advertisers in New York were, and
are, the department stores, and as most department stores were, and are, owned
by Jews, it comes logically that Jews often influence the news policies of the
papers with whom they deal.
At this time, it had always been the burning ambition of
the Jews to elect a Jewish Mayor of New York. They selected a time when the
leading parties were disrupted to push forward their choice. The method they
adopted was characteristic. They reasoned that the newspapers would not dare
to refuse the dictum of the combined department store owners, so they drew up
a "strictly confidential" letter, which they sent to the owners of the New
York newspapers, demanding support for the Jewish mayoralty candidate. The
newspaper owners were in a quandary. For several days they debated how to act.
All remained silent. The editors of the Herald cabled the news to Bennett who
was abroad. Then it was that Bennett exhibited that boldness and directness of
judgment, which characterized him. He cabled back, "Priest the letter." It was
printed in the Herald, the arrogance of the Jewish advertisers was exposed,
and non-Jewish New York breathed easier and applauded the action.
The Herald explained frankly that it could not support a
candidate of private interests, because it was devoted to the interests of the
public. But the Jewish leaders vowed vengeance against the Herald and against
the man who dared to expose their game.
They had not liked Bennett for a long time, anyway. The
Herald was the real "society paper" of New York, but Bennett had a rule that
only the names of really prominent families should be printed. The stories of
the efforts of newly rich Jews to break into the Herald's society columns are
some of the best that are told by old newspapermen.
The whole "war" culminated in a contention that arose
between Bennett and Nathan Straus, a German Jew whose business house was known
under the name of "R. H. Macy and Company," Macy being the Scotsman who built
up the business and from whose heirs Straus obtained it. Straus was something
of a philanthropist in the ghetto, but the story goes that Bennett's failure
to proclaim him as a philanthropist led to ill feeling. A long newspaper war
ensued, the subject of which was the pasteurization of milk a stupid
discussion, which no one took seriously, save Bennett and Straus. *
The Jews, of course, took Straus' side. Jewish speakers
made the welkin ring with laudation of Nathan Straus and maledictions upon
James Bennett. Bennett was pictured in the most vile business of "persecuting"
a noble Jew. It went so far that the Jews were able to put resolutions through
the Board of Aldermen.
Long since, of course, Straus, a very heavy advertiser, had
withdrawn every dollar's worth of his business from the Herald. And now the
combined and powerful elements of New York Jewry gathered to deal a staggering
blow at Bennett. The Jewish policy of "Dominate or Destroy" was at stake, and
Jewry declared war.
EDITOR'S NOTE: It is significant that, in the long years
since this first 'food war," the business of "processing" and "substituting"
pure foods, messing about with natural foodstuffs, has developed into a world
wide business; mostly controlled by Jews.
As one man, the Jewish advertisers withdrew their
advertisements. Their assigned reason was that the Herald was showing
animosity against the Jews. The real purpose of their action was to crush an
American newspaper owner who dared to be independent of them.
The blow they delivered was a staggering one. It meant the
loss of 600,000 dollars a year. Any other newspaper in New York would have
been put out of business by it. The Jews knew that and sat back; waiting for
the downfall of the man they chose to consider their enemy.
But Bennett was a fighter. Besides, he knew the Jewish
psychology probably better than any other non-Jew in New York. He turned the
tables on his opponents in a startling and unexpected fashion. The coveted
positions in his papers had always been used by the Jews. These he immediately
turned over to non-Jewish merchants under exclusive contracts. Merchants, who
had formerly been crowded into the back pages and obscure corners by the more
opulent Jews, now blossomed forth-full page in the most popular spaces. One of
the non-Jewish merchants who took advantage of the new situation was John
Wanamaker, whose large advertisements from that time forward were conspicuous
in the Bennett newspapers. The Bennett papers came out with undiminished
circulation and full advertising pages. The well-planned catastrophe did not,
then occur. Instead, there was a rather comical surprise. Here were the
non-Jewish merchants of America enjoying the choicest service of a valuable
advertising medium, while the Jewish merchants were unrepresented. Unable to
stand the spectacle of trade being diverted to non-Jewish merchants, the Jews
came back to Bennett, requesting the use of his columns for advertising. The
"boycott" had been hardest on the boycotters. Bennett received all who came,
displaying no rancor. They wanted their old positions back, but Bennett said,
No. They argued, but Bennett said, No. They offered more money, but Bennett
said, No. The choice positions had been forfeited.
Bennett triumphed, but it proved a costly victory. All the
time Bennett was resisting them, the Jews were growing more powerful in New
York, and they were obsessed by the idea that to control journalism in New
York meant to control the thought of the whole country.
The number of newspapers gradually diminished through
combinations of publications. Adolph S. Ochs, a Philadelphia Jew, acquired the
"New York Times." He soon made it into a great newspaper, but one whose bias
is to serve the Jews. It is the quality of the Times as a newspaper that makes
it so weighty as a Jewish organ. In this paper the Jews are persistently
lauded, eulogized and defended; no such tenderness is granted other races.
Then Hearst came into the field a dangerous agitator
because he not only agitates the wrong things, but because he agitates the
wrong class of people. He surrounded himself with a coterie of Jews, pandered
to them, worked hand in glove with them, but never told the truth about them;
never gave them away."
The trend toward Jewish control of the press set in
strongly, and has continued that way ever since. The old names, made great by
great editors and American policies, slowly dimmed.
A newspaper is founded either on a great editorial mind, in
which event it becomes the expression of a powerful personality, or it becomes
institutionalized as to policy and becomes a commercial establishment. In the
latter event, its chances for continuing life beyond the lifetime of its
founder are much stronger.
The Herald was Bennett, and with his passing it was
inevitable that a certain force and virtue should depart out of it. Bennett,
advancing in age, dreaded lest his newspaper, on his death should fall into
the hands of the Jews. He knew that they regarded it with longing. He knew
that they had pulled down, seized, and afterward built up many an agency that
had dared to speak the truth about them, and boasted about it as a conquest
for Jewry.
Bennett loved the Herald as a man loves a child. He so
arranged his will that the Herald should not fall into individual ownership,
but that its revenues should flow into a fund for the benefit of the men who
had worked to make the Herald what it way He died in May, 1919. The Jewish
enemies of the Herald, eagerly watchful, once more withdrew their advertising
to force, if possible, the sale of the newspaper. They knew that if the Herald
became a losing proposition, the trustees would have no course but to sell,
notwithstanding Bennett's will.
But there were also interests in New York who were
beginning to realize the peril of a Jewish press. These interests provided a
sum of money for the Herald's purchase by Frank A. Munsey.
Then, to general astonishment, Munsey discontinued the
gallant old paper, and bestowed its name as part of the name of the "New York
Sun."
The newspaper managed by Bennett is extinct. The men who
worked on it were scattered abroad in the newspaper field and, in the main,
retired or dead.
Even though the Jews had not gained actual possession of
the Herald, they at least succeeded in driving another non-Jewish newspaper
from the field. They set about obtaining control of several newspapers; their
victory is now complete. But the victory was a financial victory over a dead
man. The moral victory, as well as the financial victory, remained with
Bennett while he lived; the moral victory still remains with the Herald. It
demonstrated what could be done by fearless, independent minds, supported by
men who knew their work and loved it for its own sake. It demonstrated what
could have been achieved had these men received the support of wide-awake,
active, non-Jewish Americans. The Herald is immortalized as the last bulwark
against Jewry in New York, in America. Today the Jews are more completely
masters of the journalistic field in New York than they are in any capital in
Europe. Indeed, in Europe there frequently emerges a newspaper that gives the
real news of the Jews. There is none in New York.
And thus the situation will remain until Americans shake
themselves from their long sleep, and look with steady eyes at the national
situation. That look will be enough to show them all, and their very eyes will
quail the oriental usurpers.
"Our triumph has been rendered easier by the fact that in
our relations with the men whom we wanted we have always worked upon the most
sensitive chords of the hymn mind, upon the cash account, upon the cupidity,
upon the insatiability for material needs of man; and each one Of these human
weaknesses, taken alone, is sufficient to paralyze initiative, for it hands
over the will of men to the disposition of him who has bought their
activities." The First Protocol.
Chapter 16
THE STATE OF ALL
JUDAAN
Judaism is the most closely organized power on earth. It
forms a State whose citizens are unconditionally loyal wherever they may be
and whether rich or poor.
The name, which is given to this State, which circulates
among all the states, is "All Judaan."
The means of power of the State of All Judaan are capital
and journalism, or money and propaganda.
All Judaan is the only State that exercises world
government; all the other States can and may exercise national government
only.
The principal culture of All Judaan is journalistic; the
technical, scientific, literary performances of the modern Jew are throughout
journalistic performances. They are due to the marvellous talent of the Jews
for receptivity of others' ideas. Capital and Journalism are joined in the
Press to create a political and spiritual medium of Jewish power.
The government of this State of All Judaan is wonderfully
organized. Paris was the first seat, but has now been moved to a lower place.
Before 1914 London was its first, and New York its second capital. New York
now supplants London.
All Judaan is not in a position to have a standing army and
navy; other states supply these for it. It was the British Fleet, which
guarded from hindrance the progress of all Jewish world economy, or that part
of it which depends on the sea. In return, All Judaan assured Britain an
undisturbed political and territorial rule.
Then New York supplanted London. The drift of the Jews in
the 19th century, expedited into a great flood after World War I, made the
United States the seat of Jewish power and influence. "America," and her
fleets, armies, citizens, takes the place of Britain as the "ruler of the
world." It merely means that Jewry has moved from the British Empire to the
American Continent.
All Judaan is willing to entrust the government of various
strips of the world to nationalistic governments; it only asks to control the
governments. Judaism is passionately in favor of perpetuating nationalistic
divisions for the Gentile world. For themselves, Jews never became assimilated
with any nation. They are a separate people, always were and always will be.
All Judaan's only quarrel with any nation occurs when that
nation makes it impossible, or tries to make it so, for All Judaan to control
that nation's industrial and financial profits. It can make war, it can make
peace; it can command anarchy in stubborn cases, it can restore order. It
holds the sinews of world power in its hand and it apportions them among the
nations in such ways as will best support All Judaan's plan.
Controlling the world's source of news, All Judaan can
always prepare the minds of the people for its next move. The greatest
exposure yet to be made is the way that news is manufactured and the way in
which the mind of whole nations is molded for a purpose.
When the powerful Jew is at last traced and his hand
revealed, then comes the ready cry of persecution and it echoes through the
world press. The real cause of the persecution (which is the oppression of the
people by the financial practices of the Jews) is never given publicity.
All Judaan has its vice governments in every capital.
Having wreaked its vengeance on Germany, it will go forth to conquer other
nations. Britain it already has. France and Russia it has long held. The
United States, with its good-natured tolerance of all races, offered a
promising field. All Judaan is here. The scene of operations changes, but the
Jew is the same throughout the centuries.
