This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other maiginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the

Copyright, 1916, by

PKEFACE
The present issue of the American Jewish Yeab Book appears
under untoward circumstances. Doctor Joseph Jacobs, who had
undertaken its editorship, passed away on January 31, 1916, before
any of his plans for the volume matured. As his own lamented
demise, and that of Doctor Schechter a few months previously,
removed from the Jewry of the world two of its greatest orna-
ments, the Publication Committee of The Jewish Publication
Society of America deemed it appropriate to publish biographies
of these two distinguished men as the special articles of the
volume. The biography of Doctor Jacobs was read at a meeting
of the American Jewish Historical Society, and its printing here
is due to the courtesy of Albert M. Friedenberg, Esq., chairman of
the Publication Committee of that Society.
It seemed timely to print the estimate, though incomplete, of the
number of Jews in the army and navy of the United States. This
article, prepared by Lewis Landes, shows that there are 3741 Jews
in the army and 844 in the navy, a total of 4585 Jewish officers and
men, serving in the very modest regular military organization of
our country.
The main portion of the volume is devoted to the events of the
year. The interruption of communication between various coun-
tries in Europe, and to some extent between Europe and America,
due to the great war, has rendered the task much more uncertain
than heretofore. For foreign news the special correspondents of
the American Jewish papers and the Jewish press of England,
Germany, Austria, Italy, and Russia have been relied upon. But
the mails were slow, and in some cases irregular. Nevertheless
this impressive collection of material presents a most remarkable
and objective summary of the condition of Jewry throughout
the world in these troublous times. It was naturally impossible
to include all the details which had been gathered from various
foreign papers. On one point alone the size of the Yeab Book
would have been greatly increased had the material collected
VI PREFACE
been published in full. The Bureau of Jewish Statistics and
Research has on file thousands of names of Jews who were deco-
rated in the various armies of Europe. These names are not
given for publication, it being assumed that at some time after
the war Jewish organizations all over the world will publish
complete lists of the Jewish officers and men who served in the
various armies of their respective countries, Indicating those who
received decorations.
The list of events, if Judged alone by the military promotions
and the necrology on account of the war, shows conclusively that
the Jewish people are taking their equal share in the stupendous
conflict. Yet in spite of this fact, the military and governmental
persecution in Russia is more rigorous than ever, although there
are glimmerings of hope from the people and the liberal elements.
The Jewish Publication Society has now made accessible to
English readers the background which enables them to understand
current events in that country through the " History of the Jews
in Russia and Poland from the earliest times until the present,"
written in Russian by S. M. Dubnow and translated into English
by Professor Israel BYiedlaender. This work gives in succinct
form an outline of the long story of Russian Jewry, which goes
back to the first century of the civil era. The trustworthiness of
the narrative may not be disputed, as it is based upon an exhaust-
ive study of Russian archives and Jewish sources.
The other standing features of the Yeab Book have been
continued as heretofore. The lists of national Jewish organiza-
tions and of the new Jewish local organizations, formed in the
United States during the past year, and the immigration figures
have been brought up to date. The concluding features of the
volume are the reports of the American Jewish Committee, which
is charged with the editorship of the Yeab Book, and the Jewish
Publication Society, which issues it. The report of the American
Jewish Committee in the present volume is fuller than usual,
since it includes a review of the activities of the Committee for the
past nine years, and also contains the report of the Bureau of
Jewish Statistics and Research, which gives the results of a very
interesting inquiry, conducted by the late Doctor Joseph Jacobs,
as to the amount contributed by the Jews of New York to their
PREFACE VII
charitable Institutions and its relationship to the amount contrib-
uted to the support of these institutions by New York State and
by the several cities thereof. To this is added a list of the Jewish
charitable institutions in New York State and a series of very
important tables in connection with their work.
The report of the Jewish Publication Society of America shows
an increasing literary activity on its part, and announces the com-
pletion of the new Bible Translation and its early publication, the
inauguration of the series of Jewish Classics, and the preparation
of a Jewish commentary on the Bible. The membership list, which
now includes nearly fourteen thousand names, furnishes the only
available directory of the public-spirited and intelligent Jews of
the United States.
The present editor, who, as chairman of the Committee on the
Bureau of Statistics, reluctantly undertook to carry on the work
which had been placed in the hands of Doctor Jacobs, desires
to make acknowledgment to others for any excellencies the volume
may possess. Excepting for a portion of the manuscript, he did not
have the advantage of the services of Miss Henrietta Szold, who,
in one capacity or another, had been closely associated with the
Yeab Books from the first number which appeared in 1899. Her
share in aiding to make these volumes what they have become — one
of the constructive influences in American Jewry — is gratefully
acknowledged.
The calendar and accompanying tables have had, as heretofore,
the benefit of the revision of Doctor Julius H. Greenstone. Miss
Rose A. Herzog has borne the major part of the labor in preparing
the list of events, and has received aid from Mr. Gregory Yarros
and Miss Amy Schechter. Mr. Harry Schneiderman has given his
knowledge and experience to the revision of the list of events.
Miss Clara Goldsmith has brought up to date the statistics in
accordance with the plans inaugurated by Doctor Jacobs, and has
aided in the preparation of the manuscript in other ways. Doctor
B. Halper, who undertook the editorial work of the Publication
Society, entered upon his duties in connection with this volume
with great zeal. To all of these I desire to extend sincere thanks.

is called 677 (r'nn) according to the short system (P"d:)).
It is a regular year of 12 months, 51 Sabbaths, 354 days,
beginning on Thursday, the fifth day of the week, and
having the first day of Passover on Saturday, the seventh
day of the week ; therefore its sign is T^n, i. e., n for fifth,
D for regular (h'^idd), and r for seventh. It is the fifteenth
year of the 299th lunar cycle of 19 years, and the twenty-first
year of the 203rd solar cycle of 28 years, since Creation.

SOLOMON SCHECHTER
A BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH
BY CYRUS ADLER
Solomon Schechter, president of the Jewish Theological
Seminary of America, founder of the United Synagogue of
America^ Master of Arts and Doctor of Letters of the Uni-
versity of Cambridge in England, Doctor of Letters of Harvard
University, sometime reader in Eabbinics at Cambridge, and
professor of Hebrew at the University College, London, who
made distinguished contributions to all departments of Jewish
literature, and was the foremost exponent of Judaism in his
time, entered upon his eternal reward on November 19, 1916.
He was bom, with a twin brother, to Isaac and Chaya
Rachel Schechter in the Roumanian town Fogsani or Pocshan,
probably on December 7, 1850, and was one of a large family of
especially fine physique and handsome appearance. Focshan
is the capital of the department of Putna in Roumania which
formed the ancient frontier of the former principalities of
Moldavia and Walachia. It had a population of about twenty-
four thousand souls, of whom some six thousand were Jews.
The community goes back to an ancient period, among its
celebrities being Nathan Not6 Hannover, rabbi of the place
at the beginning of the seventeenth century and author of a
work^ Yewen Mesulah, which gave an account of the persecu-
tions of the Jews of his time. There does not appear to have
been in Pocshan what might be called an institution of higher
learning. There were no lectures, no libraries, none of the
2(5 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
wealth of aids and apparatus which a student even then could
have found in the capitals of Europe, and which are now acces-
sible to students everywhere.
Doctor Schechter received his education from his father, who
belonged to the Hasidie sect and was a man at once of scholarly
mould and saintly character. The boy had learned to read
Hebrew at the age of three, and at five he had been initiated
into the Pentateuch. In the Jewish community European
literature was unknown. He used frequently to tell how his
initial inkling of geography was derived from the Sefer
Haherith and the letters of Hag Vidaver in the Hebrew
weekly ha-Magid in which he first read the name America.
He was deprived of dictionaries, grammars^ and concordances,
those great labor-saving devices. But there were in this
Roumanian town, whose Jewish population may have gone back
many hundreds of years, possibly even to the time of the
Khazars, whose history Doctor Schechter in later years so
illuminated, copies of the great standard works of Hebrew lit-
erature— the Bible, the Talmud, and the Midxash — , although
it is certain that they were not represented either in the first
or the best editions.
At the age of ten he was sent to the Yeshibah at Piatra, an
ancient town which boasted a considerable monastic library,
but could hardly have possessed a collection of rabbinjcal
literature.
t
After he had passed his thirteenth year, he was sent to
Eabbi Joseph Saul Nathanson of Lemberg, a great Talmudist
and a voluminous author, from whom he received a highly
complimentary testimonial for his zeal and his originality. In
fact it seems evident from the meagre information at dis-
posal that as a boy he evinced an indomitable determination
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 27
to master the contents of the greatest of Jewish classics. It
may be that the remarkable knowledge of Jewish literature
which Doctor Schechter attained, the readiness with which
he could unerringly turn to a passage, and the facility with
which he could recognize from a few lines of a single scrap of
manuscript its relationship to some great lost work, were due
to the fact that his early education was perforce confined
to Jewish literature and to the very absence of those aids to
memory with which our modern systems of teaching are prob-
ably undermining one of the most important faculties of the
human mind.
Be that as it may, the cravings of the student and the rest-
lessness of the man drove him from the small town. In 1875
he repaired to Vienna, where he first came in contact with an
orderly modem system of education, and was a regular student
at the Beth ha-Midrash. Here he enjoyed the friendship of
the great preacher Adolph Jellinek, and he especially came
imder the influence of Isaac Hirsch Weiss and Lector Meir
Friedmann. Of the latter Doctor Schechter said in a charm-
ing sketch that great as he was as a scholar, he was even
greater as a Jew and as a man. " What I owe him personally ,^^
"wrote Doctor Schechter, " concerns the world very little, nor
have I words at my command to express adequately what he
meant to me as a teacher and friend for nearly forty years.''
And this was not merely a postmortem sentiment, because I
very well remember that at my first meeting with Doctor
Schechter in November, 1890, upon learning that it was my
intention to go to Vienna, he insisted that the one person whom
I ought to visit was Ijector Meir Friedmann, and he provided
me. with an introduction which at once proved a passport to
FriedJMJin's home. To him Doctor Schechter dedicated his
28 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Saadyana, published in 1903, in these words : " To my Master,
Lector M. Friedmann of Vienna, this volume is dedicated in
gratitude and admiration/^ Friedmann entrusted to Schechter
the instruction of his own sons, and from him Schechter
acquired that deep interest in the Midrash which afterwards
resulted in most fruitful studies. It is easy to understand how
a man like Friedmann should have exercised a potent influence
over the young scholar, for combined with vast erudition,
scientific method, and saintliness of character there was in
him a strong human strain not unlike that which exhibited
itself in Schechter's own character. On the Sabbath after-
noon, when the young men would come to Friedmann^s house,
he would brush aside even the preoccupations of Jewish litera-
ture and the study of the Torah, and over a cup of coffee say to
them : ^^ Come, my young friends, let us have a little gossip '^
(lashon ha^rah). It was from Weiss, however, that he re-
ceived, in 1879, the rabbinical diploma, whose functions he
scrupulously refrained from exercising.
He then went to Berlin, where he continued to enjoy the
friendship of Doctor Pinkus Friedrich Frankl previously
formed in Vienna. Frankl, who was a distinguished editor,
associated with the great historian Graetz, and an author
whose contributions covered the whole field of Jewish litera-
ture, had succeeded Abraham Geiger as rabbi at Berlin.
Here, too, Schechter came in contact with all the distin-
guished scholars of the city, especially with Israel Lewy and
Moritz Stein Schneider. Lewy^s studies covered the fields of the
Mishnah, the Talmud, and the Midrash, and indicated the
possession of an acute and dispassionate critical spirit which
Schechter followed in his first important work, Ahoth di R,
Nathan,
SOLOMON SCHECHTBR 29
He was vastly impressed with the great range of Stein-
schneider^s knowledge and literary activity, and, while in
later years he criticized the lack of an historical perspective
exhibited by him and his school, he commended his important
liturgical studies, the contributions which he made indicating
the part that Jewish scholars played in the world of science
at large, and the absolute objectivity and impartiality of his
bibliographical work, though he remarked in passing that " you
cannot, with all the sympathy in the world, alter or interpret
a single date in favor of a given theory or of a popular person."
In 1882 Claude G. Montefiore, then a promising young
student, wished to continue, upon his return to England, the
studies which he had so favorably begun in Berlin, and it was
upon the recommendation of Frankl that Montefiore invited
Schechter to come to England and act as his preceptor. The
impressions of these early days in England have been chronicled
for us by two faithful narrators. Joseph Jacobs, a distin-
guished and versatile scholar, before his untimely death in
JaLry, 1916, wrote this charming picture of his /rst impres-
sions of Schechter in England:
" It was at this period, when he settled in England, at the
persuasion of Mr. Montefiore, that I first became acquainted
with Schechter, and indeed for a time inducted him into the
mysteries of the English language. When in later years I
laughingly claimed credit for his incisive English style, he
would retort that he had simultaneously attempted to teach
me Eabbinics, yet repudiated any responsibility for my Eab-
binical ignorance. It is impossible to convey any adequate
idea of the genial radiance and elan of Schechter's personality
at this period. At the height of his physical and mental
vigor, appreciated for the first time at his true value, sur-
30 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
rounded by an ever-increasing circle of admiring friends, he
burst upon us as a blazing comet in the intellectual sky.
Therd used to be a gathering of friends in London who called
themselves * The Wandering Jews/ partly because they used
to wander for their meetings from house to house, and partly
because they claimed- the right to wander from the subject of
discussion of each meeting. Among these Wandering Jews
were men who afterwards gained reputation in the outer and
in the Jewish world, like Israel Abrahams, Asher Myers,
editor of the Jewish Chronicle, Lucien Wolf, and Israel
Zangwill. Into this circle Schechter burst like an exploding
bomb, and would bear down the often rationalist and cynical
comments that flourished there with his mixture of enthusiasm
and indignation/^
Of the same period Mrs. Schechter, in her tribute to Joseph
Jacobs, wrote : " He soon became one of the inner group of
Schechter's Liberty Hall, the members of which dropped in
almost daily at any old time, from early breakfast till midnight.
The small group grew around Schechter larger and larger
into 'The Wanderers,' finally developing into 'The Macca-
baeans.' ''
" We were all young and strong and keen, and every evening
in our large and cozy study, around the huge log-fire, we read,
and talked, and discussed every problem under the sun. There
never were more jolly, sparkling, deeply earnest and spirited
talks, and it is a pity that we were all so absorbed in living our
lives that we failed to write down the best thoughts of those
men of letters, who were at that time prodigal of their ideas,
not yet hoarding them for copy. When Zangwill became too
radical and Schechter stormy, and Lucien Wolf mysterious in
diplomatic discussions, and Israel Abrahams, a born neutral.
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 31
would say pacifically : ^ You are both right/ and Asher Myers,
the late editor of the Jewish Chronicle, and kindest of
friends, decided with his invariable pronunciamento : * I
think Schechter is right,' Joseph Jacobs, the most amiable of
the group, would often clear the atmosphere with his original
remarks and laughter/'
To another must be left the preparation of the bibliography
of Doctor Schechter. The earliest literary fruits of his stay
in England were a review of Edersheim's Life of Jesus, the
Messiah, published in the Westminster Review, and a small
pamphlet of Sawwaot (Testaments), which he found in the
British Museum, edited with an introduction in 1885, and
dedicated to his parents. His first considerable publication,
however, issued in 1887, was Ahoth di R. Nathan, one of the
so-called minor tractates, usually printed with the Babylonian
Talmud, which is of high interest on account of its ethical
contents, and was greatly in need of a critical edition. To fix
this text, he collated all the manuscripts in which the tractate
was either wholly or partly contained, and he printed in two
opposite columns different recensions, one previously published,
and the other existing only in manuscript. In the notes he
pointed out the parallel passages in either recension. He
supplied an introduction to explain the genesis of the tractate
and its relation to contemporary Hebrew literature, and notes
and appendices furnished the student with material for under-
standing the text. He further alludes in his introduction to
the great task before the modem rabbinical scholar of intro-
ducing a little order into the existing chax)s, to the enormous
advantages he had in England through the priceless treasures
of its libraries, and to the debt which he owed to Claude 6.
Montefiore, who for the first time gave his literary activity an
2
32 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
outlet, and he concludes with the sentence : ^* As a mark of my
sincere gratitude for the good fortune which has befallen me —
a fortune of which better and wiser men than I have been
deprived — let this, my first large attempt in the field of Hebrew
literature, be herewith dedicated to you."
He very rapidly acquired the English language, and under-
took constant studies in the great treasure-houses of the
British Museum and the Bodleian Library at Oxford, the
Hebrew collections of the latter being then presided over by
that distinguished bibliographer, Adolf Neubauer. Schechter
at once undertook studies in the texts of the Midrash which re-
sulted in the publication of the splendid edition of the Midrash
ha-Gadol, forming a collection of ancient rabbinic homilies to
the Pentateuch which he intended to edit for the first time from
various Yemenite MSS. It is characteristic of the deliber-
ation with which Doctor Schechter carried out his scholarly
work that the only published volume, that on Genesis, did not
appear until the year 1 902. The publication of this volume has
had great influence in reviving investigation in this most
interesting department of Jewish literature.
About this time the concrete evidence of the revival of
Jewish learning in England, which was so much hoped for,
and from which so much was realized, was manifested by the
publication of the Jewish Quarterly Revietv, edited by Israel
Abrahams and Claude G. Montefiore, the first number of
which was issued in October, 1888. This very first number
contained an article by Doctor Schechter entitled "The
Dogmas of Judaism," which was the beginning of that extraor-
dinary series of essays which afterwards resulted in three
volumes, " Studies in Judaism, First Series," " Studies in
Judaism, Second Series," and in the later and even more
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 33
important work, " Some Aspects of Rabbinic Theology," the
beginning of the first attempt at a systematic presentation
of the theology of the Rabbis. This essay and the many others
that followed it gave evidence of his clearness of thought and
his charm and beauty of expression, both distinguishing marks
of the great scholar.
Few of the twenty volumes of the First Series of the Jewish
Quarterly Review lacked one or more articles by Doctor
Schechter, and it is pleasant to think that he who had con-
tributed so much to the First Series was instrumental in aid-
ing to establish the New Series of the Jewish Quarterly Review,
published by the Dropsie College, and that even to the volume
just completed he gave his guidance in the selection of the
articles. And let me say here that in our intercourse connected
with the Quarterly during the six years of the publication of
the New Series, Doctor Schechter^s voice was always in favor
of a policy of generosity, whether to a dissenting or hostile
opinion, or to the somewhat immature writings of younger
men ; he frequently said : " We must give the young men a
chance."
The University of Cambridge, in spite of the fact that of
the two great English Universities it was especially devoted
to mathematics and the physical sciences, whereas Oxford was
famed for classics and history, had had for a quarter of a cen-
tury an instructor in Talmud and rabbinical literature in the
person of Solomon Mayer Schiller-Szinessy, a native of Hun-
gary, who published the first part of a catalogue of the Hebrew
manuscripts in the Cambridge University Library, a critical
edition of Kimhi's Commentary on the first book of Psalms,
and other writings. Schiller-Szinessy died in March, 1890,
and Schechter was appointed to the vacant lectureship, a post
34 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
which must have corresponded with his highest hopes and was
a fitting tribute to the evidence of genius and scholarship that
he had already given.
As a boy Doctor Schechter had seen in his Roumanian town
the insults and oppression to which a Jew was subjected and
the repression which he was obliged to exercise. He was taught
that if an insult or even a stone were hurled at him he must
not retort nor defend himself for fear that greater harm would
come upon his people. He had looked to the freer states of
Austria and Germany as places in which a Roumanian Jew
would be liberated from persecution and from the narrowing
effects which such persecutions had brought upon the Jewish
community itself. But while for a time he was attracted by
the liberalism of Germany and of the Jewish community of
Berlin, he soon became convinced that this was superficial;
that whereas the Jew was free politically, he was in an environ-
ment which was endeavoring to enslave him mentally and
spiritually, in which the forces of philosophy, and history and
theology and criticism were alike being used to establish the
inferiority of the Jewish people, to minimize their history and
to degrade their literature before the world. The greater free-
dom of England, the fact that the Universities were not part of
the Governmental system, the nobility and wide influence of the
Jewish community of Great Britain, all seemed to hold out to
him the opportunity both for freedom and for work for which
he passionately hoped.
His appointment at Cambridge was a most important step
in the development of his career. Here he found a congenial
set of friends who encouraged him and stimulated him and to
whom in turn he was prodigal of his great gifts. In this circle
are to be enumerated Sir James George Frazer, the author of
the Golden Bough, Doctor Eiriker Magnussen, the great Ice-
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 35
landic scholar, W. D. Buckland, regius professor of law, Pro-
fessor Alfred Haddon, the anthropotogist, Professor Arthur
S. Strong, librarian of the House of Lords, Sir Donald Mac-
Alister, now principal of Glasgow University, and Eendel
Harris, the distinguished New Testament scholar, then a
Fellow of Clare College.
I do not recall nor can I find among my papers the occasion
of my first correspondence with Doctor Schechter. It may
possibly have begun through Eendel Harris, who had come from
Cambridge to America, and was a mutual friend. At all
events upon coming to London in November, 1890, I wrote to
Cambridge asking for the privilege of an interview, received
an invitation by telegram, and promptly repaired to Doctor
Schechter's house, and thus began a friendship which endured
to the end, and was one of the greatest privileges of my life.
One or two of the men I have mentioned I distinctly remember
meeting upon that occasion. In those days his appearance was
entirely different from that which he presented upon settling
in this country. Not quite forty years of age, his hair and
beard were ruddy without any sign of that premature whiteness
which afterwards became a crown of glory. He was erect,
rather spare, and a vigorous walker.
His going to Cambridge was fortunate in many ways, and
while it took him out of the great Jewish community of Lon-
don, to their disadvantage, yet with the comparatively easy-
going methods of an English University, which does not require
many lectures from its staff, and has long vacations, he found
it possible, without serious anxiety, to give a large part of his
time to study and reading which intensified and ordered his
knowledge of Jewish literature, and gave him a wide acquaint-
ance with the literature and learning of all other civilized
peoples.
36 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
That he was influencing other scholars in those days may be
gleaned from Mr. Montefiore's acknowledgment in his Hibbert
Lectures on the origin and growth of religion as illustrated by
the religion of the ancient Hebrews : " To Mr. Schechter I
owe more than I can adequately express here. My whole con-
ception of the Law and of its place in Jewish religion and life
is largely the fruit of his teaching and inspiration, while
almost all the Eabbinic material upon which that conception
rests was put before my notice and explained to me by him."
Jewish literature for the last quarter of a century abounds in
such acknowledgments, not to speak of the many scholars and
students he aided, but to whom he denied the opportunity of
such recognition.
His merits were speedily recognized by the authorities of the
University of Cambridge. In 1892 the degree of Master of
Arts honoris cansa was conferred upon him by the University.
He early formed a close companionship with Doctor Charles
Taylor, the Master of St. John^s College, who had long been
engaged in Hebrew studies, and was one of the few Christian
theologians who recognized the importance and the worth
of post-biblical Jewish literature. As early as 1877 Doctor
Taylor had published an edition of that famous work,
Pirke Abot (the Sayings of the Fathers). A second edi-
tion appeared in 1897, in which he said of Schechter that
it was to his " learning and acumen T am indebted for the sug-
gestion of additions and improvements throughout the work."
It was largely due to Doctor Taylor's generosity that Schechter
was enabled to make the trip to (-airo which resulted in the
transfer of the greater part of the treasures of the Genizah of

SOLOMON SCHECHTER 37
In 1893, Doctor Schechter was awarded the Worth Student-
ship, a sort of traveling fellowship, for the purpose of going to
Italy to examine the great Hebrew treasures in the libraries of
that country. Of this opportunity he made good use in the
texts which he afterwards published, and in numerous notes
and collations of manuscripts, some of which are unpublished,
but which, it is expected, will see the light of day through the
labors of his disciples.
A number of friends in America had recognized the genius
of Doctor Schechter, and had endeavored to bring about his
accession to the Faculty of the then struggling Jewish Theo-
logical Seminary. This effort had the full approval of the late
Doctor Sabato Morals, then president of the Seminary, and
upon the death of Doctor Alexander Kohut, the professor of
Talmud, the idea occurred that it would be very desirable if
Doctor Schechter could be brought to America for the purpose
of establishing a mutual acquaintanceship with a larger group
in the hope that there would result some arrangement by which
he might be inducted to settle in the United States. In 1893
there became available the Deed of Trust executed })y Hymaii
Gratz in favor of the Congregation Mikve Israel in Philadel-
phia, " for the establishment and support of a College for the
education of Jews residing in the city and county of Philadel-
phia,'' and the first step taken to inaugurate the academic
work of this Trust was an invitation to Doctor Schechter to
come to America and deliver a course of lectures upon this
foundation. The unofficial approach wa:^ apparently made by
Doctor Solomon Solis Cohen, for in a letter dated Cambridge,
June 14, 1894, Doctor Schechter wrote to him : " I think I
could see my way to falling in with your convenient proposal ;
matters of this nature, as you say, are better discussed by word
of mouth than by correspondence.
38 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Til answer to your three questions formally, therefore : 1. I
should be able to accept your invitation without incurring
the least risk of compromising my position in Cambridge. It
occurs frequently that men from the University are invited for
a course of lectures to America.
2. I thought it still premature to apply to the General
Board of Studies for a grant of leave of absence on your private
letter. That could not be done without enclosing a definite
invitation and giving them a fixed date. But I have approached
in an unofficial way the Master of our College, and he thinks
that the Board will probably grant me leave of absence for a
term which means three months.
3. I could best absent myself from Cambridge during the
Lent Term (15th of December to the end of March) . . . .
As to the subject of the lectures, 1 do not think it advisable
to make the Talmud the exclusive topic of treatment. The
poor 'i'alnmd has been so often tortured by lecturers and orators
of both sides that the public must necessarily be suspicious of
any undertaking of this kind. Besides, the genuine nature of
the Talmud could after all not be shown without expounding
to the hearers one tractate at least thoroughly and honestly. I
would rather prefer to give eight lectures on Jewish Thought
(post-biblical), dealing mainly with its most important theo-
logical manifestations. This would, of course, include the
Talmud, and would bring the subject down to our present cen-
tury. I shall in this way use some lectures I have given here,
and write some new lectures for you. 1 hope to be able to
make the subject interesting, both to scholars and to the public
at large.^^
A few weeks after this was received I went to England for a
visit, and took up in person the discussion referred to in the
SOLOMON SCHECHTBR 39
letter to Doctor Cohen, and it must have resulted in a formal
agreement, because, under date of December 29, 1894, Doctor
Schechter wrote me to Washington as follows : " I have sent
off a letter to you (to the address of the Mikve Israel Congre-
gation) containing my formal answer to the invitation of the
Gratz Trust Committee. I was as stiff as a Dayan, as one
should be when writing to a real live Chairman. Here I want
to be cordial and tell you how deeply grateful I feel toward
you for your kind efforts in my behalf. What a joy in heaven
there will be to see old friends again At present Neu-
bauer from Oxford is staying with me, who occupies all my
time, whilst next week I must go to London to prepare for my
notes to the Midrash Shir hor-Shirim, which must at last be
sent to the press." ( Agadath Shir Hashirim, Cambridge, 1896,
dedicated " To Dr. Moritz Steinschneider, 1'he Nestor of
Jewish Bibliography, in Commemoration of his Eightieth
Birthday .^0
" I have also to thank you most heartily," he continues, " for
your religious museum lecture which is very interesting. Only
such a museum could give us the proper history of the ^ domes-
tication of religious ideas,' but I should like also to see an old
Jew exhibited there sitting on the floor in the middle of the
night and reading Tikhun Hasot, and crying bitterly over the
Ooluth ha-Shechinah (the exile of the Shechinah). This
would be something which neither Wellhausen nor W. R. Smith
could explain."
Schechter arrived in this country in February, 1895, and
as I could not come from Washington to hear his opening
lecture, he made report in the following characteristic note,
dated at Philadelphia, 1303 Girard Avenue, February 12, 1895.
He acknowledged the letter received on board the " Teutonic,"
40 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
described his delay of three days due to gales, and then added :
" But all troubles are now over and I am here with S., whose
house is a little paradise on earth. I wonder whether they have
such nice libraries in the Gan Eden containing so little the-
ology and so many good novels. I gave my first lecture yester-
day. The hall was crowded, and I hope that at least a minyan
understood my English, and that I shall be saved for the sake
of the ten."
He returned to England in March, 1895, and from his
steamship, the " Majestic," he wrote under date of March 28,
in reply to a letter : " My zeal for democratic institutions has
not cooled down. I still believe that you .... are the great-
est and the best of nations. Nor is your Judaism so bad as
the English Episcopalians think, in spite of the little foxes who
destroy the vineyards. .... Th-e sea is very rough, which
interferes very greatly with my spelling and grammar. Have
you read ' As Other Saw Him A. D. 54 ? ' Do read it.'^ (This
refers to a book by Joseph Jacobs of which Doctor Schechter
wrote an interesting review in the Jewish Chronicle.)
On the 13th of May, 1896, according to the statement of
Doctor Charles Taylor in the preface to the edition of Ben
Sira, published by the Cambridge University Press in 1899,
Doctor Schechter observed at Cambridge in a bundle of frag-
ments brought by Mrs. Lewis and Mrs. Gibson from Southern
Palestine the time-worn leaf of a copy of the lost original
Hebrew of Ben Sira's work. This book, also called Eccle-
siasticus, one of the most elevating of the apocryphal literature,
had been known for nearly a thousand years only in the Greek,
although there was ample evidence that it had once existed
in a Hebrew original. This subject had interested Doctor
Schechter for some time, and in the third volume of the first
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 41
series of the Jewish Quarterly Review, in the number pub-
lished July, 1891, he collected the quotations from Eccle-
siasticus in rabbinic literature, which had been done before to
some extent, but which he put together with full parallels and
different readings derived from manuscripts and older editions.
Thus his discovery was by no means a lucky accident, but, as
is not infrequent among scientific men, was preceded by the
most careful preparation. Doctor Schechter^s first formal pub-
lication on the subject was in the Expositor for July, 181)6, in
an article covering only fifteen pages, though a notice of the
discovery was published prior to this in the London Athenasum
and the London Academy. Doctor Schechter at once recog-
nized the capital importance of this recovery of a lost original,
not only because it gave an additional text in classical Hebrew
to our scanty collections, but because its far-reaching impli-
cations had to be reckoned with by the proponents of biblical
criticism and students of Hebrew philology.
The actual discovery which made a world-wide sensation has
been variously described. Professor Marx, to whose excellent bi-
ography, presented to the American Jewish Historical Society,
1 am greatly indebted, wrote as follows : " As Doctor Schechter
himself told me, he once visited his friends, Mrs. Lewis and
Mrs. Gibson, who had just returned from a trip in the East,
and was shown some old Hebrew leaves which the learned
ladies had acquired during the voyage. One of these leaves at
once attracted his special attention, and suggested the idea that
it was a piece of the original of Ben Sira, in which he had been
especially interested for a long time, as shown by an article a
few years before, in which he had collected all the Hebrew
quotations of this book occurring in Jewish literature. But
when he wanted to test this idea he had to go home, for the
42 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
ladies, as strict Presbyterians, did not have a copy of the
Apocrypha in their house.'^
Another description of this event was brought to my atten-
tion by Professor Margolis. An article was published in the
Transactions of the International Scientific Congress of
Catholics held at Freiburg in Switzerland, written by Doctor
S. Minocchi of Florence, on the discovery of the original
Hebrew text of Ecclesiasticus. It contains an abstract of the
following very interesting private letter written by Mrs. Lewis
from Marseilles on the eighth of April, 1897, recording the
exact facts of the identification of the first fragment of Eccle-
siasticus as a result of her request to Doctor Schechter to
examine some Hebrew fragments that she had purchased in
Palestine, but which had probably originated in Egypt. " I
happened," wrote Mrs. Lewis, ^' to meet him in the street, and
asked him to do so the same day. In less than an hour I
returned home. Mr. Schechter had already finished his
examination. He held up a yellow leaf containing part of the
Jerusalem Talmud, and said it was rather important. Then
he held up a paper leaf and said : ^ This seems interesting, may
I take it to the University Library and verify it ? ' I said :
^ Certainly.' * May I publish it ? ' I said : * Mrs. Gibson and
I will be only too happy if you find it worth publishing.' An
hour later we got a telegram saying : ^ Your paper leaf is most
valuable; please come to my house this afternoon.' And ten
minutes later the postman delivered a letter from Mr.
Schechter, written in a state of the wildest excitement, and
telling us that it was a bit of the Hebrew text of Ecclesiasticus.
We drove to Mr. Schechter's house that afternoon, and the
same evening I wrote to the two literary papers, the Academy
and the Athenceum, describing the fragments."
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 43
The only evidence that I can find in my correspondence of
this discovery are postal cards written in the month of June,
1896, making requests for some books on Sirach, which
Doctor Schechter apparently could not procure in England.
It was not until 1899, as noted above, that Doctor Schechter,
with Doctor Taylor, published a formal edition of the Wisdom
of Ben Sira from manuscripts received from the Cairo Genizah,
which will be referred to later on.
Doctor Taylor wrote in the preface : " Ben Sira's book is of
unique interest to the scholar and the theologian as a Hebrew
work of nearly known date, which forms a link between the
Old Testament and the rabbinic writings. The first step to its
right appreciation is to note its discursive use of the ancient
Scriptures, and the author^s free way of adapting their
thoughts and phrases to his purposes."
In 1904, in a series of public lectures, afterwards printed
under the title " A glimpse of the social life of the Jews in
the age of Jesus, the son of Sira," as well as in a previous
lecture on the study of the Bible, Doctor Schechter emphasized
the fact that the discovery of this book tended to disprove many
of the theories which had been advanced concerning the late-
ness of various works included in the biblical canon.
Although the fragment of Ecclesiastieus was purchased by
Mrs. Lewis and Mrs. Gibson in Palestine, there seemed to be
little doubt that its origin was Egypt. For 150 years the
Genizah at Cairo had been referred to in literature. The prac-
tice of buryiog manuscripts and books partially injured is
a very old one. It existed among old synagogues in the
Orient, and is practiced there and even in the Occident to this
very day. The subject had long attracted Doctor Schechter^s
attention, arid he had collected references to it in the works of
44 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
travelers as well as in the Responsa of the Eabbis. During my
own visit to Cairo in March and April, 1891, I secured some
fifty fragments of Hebrew and Arabic manuscripts from a
dealer in antiquities, the origin of which was, of course, not
then known to me. On my way back to America I paid a visit
to England, and showed these to Doctor Schechter early in
January, 1892, as well as to Doctor Neubauer and others. It
may be said in passing that even this small collection has
yielded some interesting finds, the most important being the
recovery of a portion of the lost Book of Precepts of Hefes b.
Yasliah, an author of the tenth century, edited by Doctor B.
Halper, a fragment of Sa^adya's Sefer ha-Galui, edited by Pro-
fessor Henry Malter, and a poem by Elhanan b. Shemarya,
edited by Professor Israel Davidson.
Mr. Elkan Adler of London, on a visit to Cairo in 1888, had
obtained some Hebrew fragments ; Professor Sayce had others,
and for two or three years various fragments, all from Cairo,
indicating a common source, filtered into the great libraries of
England and even to America. It was the literary evidence of
the existence of this Genizah and the results of its pilferings
l)y dealers which convinced Doctor Schechter that the time had
com'e to make the attempt to save this great collection from dis-
persion all over the world, and this conviction was strengthened
by the identification of the fragment of Sirach already alluded
to. The unearthing of the Genizah was the event of Doctor
Schechter's career, more dramatic even than the discovery of
the Hebrew text of Ecclesiasticus. But it was not due to any
exploitation upon his part that this created a world sensation
among scholars and among all intelligent men, and he rather
resented having it alluded to as a discovery, in which word he
thought sometliing of chance or accident was involved. Before
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 45
he went to Cairo he was unerringly sure that great treasures
were there, though, of course, he could not divine their exact
nature. In his lectures on the Genizah, delivered before the
Dropsie College, and as yet unpublished, he used the following
words : " I should like at once to correct a mistake with which
I often meet in books and articles, in which I am described as
the discoverer of the Genizah. This is not correct. The
Genizah practically discovered itself."
" The conviction of the importance of the Cairo Genizah," he
writes, " had grown upon me as I examined the various manu-
scripts which had found their way from it into English private
and public libraries, and which had already led to important
discoveries. I therefore determined to make a pilgrimage to
the shores whence they had come. My plan recommended itself
to the authorities of the University of Cambridge, and found
\Yarm supporters in Professor Sidgwick, Doctor Donald Mac-
Alister, and especially Doctor Taylor, the Master of St. John's
College. To the enlightened generosity of this great student
and patron of Hebrew literature it is due that my pilgrimage
became a regular pleasure trip to Egypt, and extended into the
Holy Land."
The visit to Cairo and the work in the Genizah were the
turning-points in Doctor Schechter's personal and scientific
career. The work underground in sorting thousands, possibly
as many as one hundred thousand fragments, of manuscripts
amidst the accumulated dust and dirt of centuries impaired his
health to such an extent that he began to pass almost from the
appearance of a young man to a man of considerable age, which
those who did not know his comparative youth were accus-
tomed to ascribe to him. He gave an account of the external
part of his work in Cairo and also a rough survey of the
46 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
contents of the Genizah in two articles entitled " A Hoard of
Hebrew Manuscripts," originally published in the London
Times and reprinted in his " Studies in Judaism, Second
Series." Those who saw him seated in the great basement
room of the Cambridge Library, with the boxes upon boxes of
priceless treasures about him, endeavoring to sift out the more
valuable and place them in some sort of order, can realize the
force of his words written in the summer of 1897 : " Looking
over this enormous mass of fragments about me, in the sifting ^,;
and examination of which I am now occupied, I cannot over-V^
come a sad feeling stealing over me, that I shall hardly bej
worthy to see the results which the Genizah would add to oi
knowledge of Jews and Judaism. This work is not for one mi
and not for one generation. It will occupy many a specialisi
and much longer than a lifetime. However, to use an ol
adage, * It is not thy duty to complete the work, but neitl
art thou free to desist from it.^ " This great collection
presented to the University of Cambridge jointly by Doel
Schechter and by Doctor Taylor, and to its elucidation pracl
cally all of Doctor Schechter's scholarly activity was hence«|j
forth dedicated.
Whilst this fact had a profound influence on Doctoil
Schechter^s career, it was of even greater significance for
development of Jewish literature, because had this opportunil
not been vouchsafed to him he would have undoubtedly devol
himself to other subjects in which his scholarly activities wi
sorely needed. In his generation he was the Jewish scholar
best fitted to make contributions to Jewish biography and hUN^j
tory. Essays like those on Krochmal, Nachmanides, and
GaoB of Wilna, and even more important, the essay on Safetf%
in the 16th century, indicate that he was a master in portray-
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 47
ing the life either of a great man or of the people and in pro-
viding the proper background and setting for such a picture.
His talents, if devoted to this subject alone, would have pro-
duced a most remarkable history of the Jewish people. As
yet, the successor to Graetz has not been found.
The other department of Jewish literature which would have
been greatly enhanced was that of Jewish theology, or, as he
preferred to call it. Rabbinic theology, although this phase con-
noted to him nothing separate from Judaism. Rabbinism in
his opinion was never a movement in Judaism, but represented
the steady, orderly development of the main stream. All that
went away from it were movements and currents ; this was the
principal thing. For his work entitled " Some Aspects of
Rabbinic Theology," dedicated to Louis Marshall, which ap-
peared in book form only in 1909, although based upon essays
which began to appear in the Jewish Quarterly Review as early
as 1894, he made a most careful study of general theology, and
invented new categories, since he was convinced that Judaism
could not be exactly fitted into the rubrics of other religions.
" The task I set myself,^^ he said, " was to give a presentation
of Rabbinic opinion on a number of theological topics as
offered by the Rabbinic literature, and forming an integral
part of the religious consciousness of the bulk of the nation or
^ Catholic Israel.^ " And very characteristic of the intellectual
humility of this great scholar, as of all great men, is the open-
ing paragraph of his introductory chapter to this work which
may be commended to generations of students : " My object
in choosing the title ^ Some Aspects of Rabbinic Th^logy ^ is
to indicate that from the following chapters there must not be
expected either finality or completeness. Nor will there be
made any attempt in the following pages at that precise and
48 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
systematic treatment which we are rightly accustomed to claim
in other fields of scientific inquiry. I have often marvelled at
the certainty and confidence with which Jewish legalism, Jew-
ish transcendentalism, Jewish self -righteousness, are delineated
in our theological manuals and histories of religion; but I
have never been able to emulate either quality. I have rather
found, when approaching the subject a little closer, that the
peculiar mode of old Jewish thought, as well as the unsatis-
factory state of the documents in which this thought is pre-
served, ^are against the certain,' and urge upon the student
caution and sobriety.''
In November, 1915, only a few weeks before his lamented
death, he was talking over what he proposed to do after he
might be able to lay down his administrative burdens, and the
two things that he had particularly in mind were the writing
of a second volume on Rabbinic Theology and a work showing
the Jewish conception of charity.- He frequently regretted the
absence of an adequate presentation of the wonderful wealth of
material in the Bible, and in the whole of post-biblical Jewish
literature, of the attitude of a Jew to his fellow-man less
fortunate than himself, and it was one of his most cherished
aspirations to be able to supply this want. He had also dur-
ing his travels in Italy made collections for the writing of a
history of the biblical Canon, but this work, I think, he was
prepared to turn over to another, when he found a man in
whose scholarship and sympathy he had confidence.
However, the Genizah did come from Egypt to England, and
with it there was forced upon Schechter the labor that he did
not shirk, and for which he had few lielpers.
That he was busy in 1898 with the Genizah work may be
gleaned from a letter of July 12, 1898, in which he wrote : " I
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 49
sent you with the last mail a photograph of the Avon Kodesh
of the Cairo synagogue in which the Genizah is placed. The
Orientals have no idea of repair and preservation, and thus the
Aron is modern." It may be said in passing that the original
of the Aron Kodesh, or the Holy Ark, of the Cairo synagogue
was presented by the authorities to Doctor Schechter per-
sonally, who brought it to America, and in turn presented it
to the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, in whose
synagogue it is now placed. It is figured and described in the
Biennial Report of the Jewish Theological Seminary of
America, 1902-4, published in 1906, and is probably the oldest
piece of ecclesiastical furniture in the United States. A part
of the inscription was wanting, and by one of those romances
of archaeology, Professor Marx recently discovered, through
the last issued section of the Catalogue of Hebrew and
Samaritan manuscripts in the British Museum, a piece of
board containing the first half of a two-line inscription which
forms the missing part of the inscription on this Ark.
In the midst of our Spanish- American War Schechter wrote :
" I wish you all success in your present war. But I can get as
little enthusiastic over pan-Saxonism as over pan-Germanism,
etc. The over-emphasis of the racial principle will be the
destruction of our people. They will as little forgive us our
Semitic origin as they did in the Middle Ages our denial of the
son. We shall only have peace when the sentiments expressed
in the morning service of Rosh ha-Shanah have become a com-
plete reality, and my belief is strong that the distant future will
be for us if we remain ourselves. I am still very busy with the
Genizah, particularly with the Sirach finds. I have rewritten
the greatest part of the notes, but I am very anxious to write
a good introduction."
50 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Our correspondence was interrupted then, because early in
July, 1898, I went to England, and spent four months there, a
good deal of it in Doctor Schechter^s company in Cambridge
and in Eamsgate, where we worshipped together in the little
synagogue of the Montefiore family, at the invitation of
the distinguished Master of East Cliff Lodge, Sir Joseph
Sebag-Montefiore. In October of that year I returned from
p]ngland, and must have informed Doctor Schechter of my
arrival home, for under date of November 24, 1898, he
writes and thanks me for a letter, and then continues : " The
degree conferred to-day on Lord Kitchener gives us a little
Yom Tob (holiday) . I also went to the Senate in all my glory
of red robes. I am still writing the introduction to Sirach,
which piece of work will, I think, rejoice your heart. Please
God I hope to finish it by next week. The chief thing is to find
out how and what portions of the Bible he used, which gave me
an enormous piece of work. In fact, I went through all the
canonical writers to locate all the references."
Meanwhile more or less animated correspondence was kept
up between members of the Board of Trustees of the Seminary
and Doctor Schechter, with a view to his coming to America ;
but other opportunities arose in England. On December 23,
1898, he wrote : " You probably read in the Jewish Chronicle
of my appointment to the London Professorship I
have given up thinking of the New York Seminary, where, it
seems, all things go slowly. They want me perhaps even more
than I want them. When you give the matter your blessing I
will answer Amen."
In the intervening years he continued to give himself en-
tirely to work on the Genizah manuscripts, and there resulted
the publication of several very important books. The first oi
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 51
these, the text of the Wisdom of Ben Sira, has already been
mentioned. Next in order there came his Saadyana, printed
in 1903, being fragments of the writings of the great Gaon
Saadya and others, mostly derived from the Taylor-Schechtf r
collection, with the exception of a few fragments in the posses-
sion of Judge Sulzberger of Philadelphia, and Elkan N. Adler
of London. These documents are of the greatest value for
Jewish history, and have stimulated other scholars in the pro-
duction of remarkable contributions to the obscure history
of the Gaonate. The latest and possibly the most important of
all of Doctor Schechter's publications issued as a result of
these discoveries were the Documents of Jewish Sectaries, in
two volumes, which he dedicated to Jacob H. Schiff ; the first
volume, the Fragments of a Zadokite Work, he ascribed to
the second century, while the other was The Fragments of the
Book of the Commandments by Anan, the founder of the
Karaite Sect.
The Zadokite work has been followed by a trail of admira-
tion, criticism, and discussion. I am in position to say that in
spite of the criticism. Doctor Schechter maintained his view
as to the antiquity of this sect. He was collecting all the
criticisms which appeared — some at great length and in serial
form — and had decided to make no further comment until he
could review the entire discussion. He went about this edition
with the greatest caution, as was his custom, and wrote his
introduction, and stated his theory with the full realization
of the fact that it was an hypothesis and that his conclusions
might be attacked, but he deemed it cowardly to simply issue
a text with philological notes and not be courageous enough to
endeavor to present it in its proper historical and literary
setting.
52 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Not very long after the publication of this important work,
on May 18, 1911, President Tx)well wrote to Doctor Schechter:
" Harvard University would like to confer upon you the degree
of Doctor of Letters on Commencement next, June 28, if you
can be present at that time to receive it." He was very much
pleased with this distinction, which he felt to be one extended
not only to him personally but to the Seminary and to the
community, and the day after the Commencement he wrote
from the train on his return to Boston : " It was a glorious day.
Everybody was kind, especially Moore [Professor George F.
Moore], who was my sponsor The papers say that I
am the first Jew to receive honors from Harvard, which I
hardly believe."
In July of 1899 he had met Doctor Solomon Solis Cohen in
Amsterdam, where the question of his coming to America was
again discussed, and he wrote to me on January 1, 1900, his
views as they had then matured, first stating what his arrange-
ments were in England, and adding: " America has thus only
ideal attractions to me, offering as it does a larger field of
activity which may become a source of blessing to future gener-
ations. I also feel that I shall be more happy living among
Jews. I want my synagogue and my proper Yomim Tobim
among my people. There is also the question of the children
being brought up among Jews, which is the only guarantee for
the acquiring of a real heartfelt Judaism. I think we have
once talked over all those points. This is what attracts me to
your continent, but I (cannot move from here before I see my
future safe in America. I am prepared to give to the Semi-
nary all my faculties and energies, even my very life.^' He
then asked me to keep an eye for reviews of his Sirach publi-
cation and other articles that he had written, and added : " I
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 53
do not care for praise. All that 1 am anxious for is that my
results bearing on Bible criticism should become known in
wider circles," so that people might learn that Holy Writ
according to the critics was not itself above criticism. He
tlien goes on : " I am now occupied with preparing the author's
introduction to the Midrash ha-Gadol, which I had to copy
from another manuscript, my copy being defective at the
beginning," and then follows this comment on the Boer War
then raging, which he considered very unrighteous : " We are
now blessed with any amount of yellow papers, yellow sermons,
yellow prayers (written in bad grammar) calling upon their
yellow god to bless their arms to the glory of his holy name and
the Anglo-Saxon race. The pro-Boer party, on the other hand,
quotes aptly Ezekiel 35.10 (look it up). You know I hate
imperialism of all kinds and of all ages."
On April 22, 1900, he wrote in acknowledgment of some
publications for his Sirach collections : " The latter complete
my Sirach collections, already filling three volumes. At present
I am chiefly busy with the Book of Jubilees, having discovered
a fragment which I believe will at last solve this much dis-
cussed problem." This fragment turned out to be part of the
Zadokite work described above.
In November, 1900, he wrote, reproaching me for my silence,
in these words : " Since months and months and months no
lines from you. Cheyne has in the meantime discovered an
eighth Isaiah."
Doctor Schechter's life in England was a very happy one.
He married there, and there his children were born. He helped
to make something of a Jewish center in Cambridge. The
Jewish students organized a synagogue which they themselves
conducted with zeal and devotion. The Cambridge Society for
54 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Jewish Studies, named after him before his departure from
England, continues to exist. The great charm that he exer-
cised over the learned authorities of Cambridge was evidenced
by the beautiful parchments and other presentations that were
made to him when he came to America. A striking example
of the affection in which he was held is contained in a private
letter of Sir James G. Frazer, which I am taking the liberty
of quoting from the article of Professor Marx :
" In him we have lost one of our truest friends and one of
the finest and most remarkable men we have ever known.
It would be difficult to say whether he was more admirable for
the brilliance of his intellect and the readiness of his wit, or
for the warmth of his affection and the generosity and nobility
of his character, but I think it was the latter qualities even
more than his genius which endeared him to his friends. It
was a wonderful combination of intellectual and moral excel-
lence, and the longer and the more intimately one knew him the
more deeply did one feel the impression of his greatness and
goodness. I reckon it among the good fortunes of my life to
have had the privilege and honor of his friendship, and I am
sure that very many who knew him must feel as I do. His
memory — ^the memory of his intellectual honesty, his generous
enthusiasm for everything that was noble and beautiful, and
his unmeasured contempt for everything that was base and
ignoble — ^the memory of this will abide with us and be an
inspiration to us to the end of our lives.^'
To the Jewish community of England, a conservative body,
and in those days not readily yielding to the influence of a
foreigner, he commenced to have more and more of a real
meaning. He address^ed to them in 1901 a series of Epistles,
originally published in the Jewish Chronicle and reprinted
SOLOMON SCHECHTBR 55
in pamphlet form, which attracted the attention of Jews not
only there but possibly even more in America. His attack
upon the occidentalization of the Jewish religion, while it
again aroused the conscience, sank deep into the minds of
many thinking Jews the world over, even of those who
were not in agreement with his theological views. These
epistles and the stray hints in the letters from which I have
quoted above explain why it was that Doctor Schechter was
willing to come to America. As he said, his removal was not
based upon any material advantage to himself. Indeed, com-
paratively speaking, there could have been none. There had
been added to his readership at Cambridge a curatorship in
the University librar}% a professorship in London, an exami-
nership in Manchester, and I believe that a fellowship in
one of the colleges was imminent. But what moved Doctor
Schechter most to leave England was the fact that nearly all
of his disciples at the University of Cambridge were non-J ews,
and that while he recognized the usefulness of spreading a
knowledge of Jewish literature among Christian theologians,
he still had a very strong and natural desire to rear up a
school of Jewish students who might properly carry on the
traditions of Jewish learning. It was for this reason that he
readily accepted the invitation extended to him to deliver a
course of lectures on the Aspects of Rabbinic Theology before
the Gratz College in Philadelphia in 1895, and that later on
he was prepared to accept the new duty of President of the
Jewish Theological Seminary of America when it was tendered
to him in 1901.
On September 10 of that year he wrote me informally ex-
pressing his satisfaction that matters had been finally arranged,
so that he could see his way to accepting the invitation to
America. He asked for sufficient time to give notice to the
56 ' AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
various boards of both Universities, of Cambridge and London,
as well as to prepare his Genizah work in such a way that he
could continue its editing in America.
On October 24, 1901, he writes: " I am now waiting with
impatience for the days when we shall be colleagues
Have I told you that among other surprises that 1 still have
for the world is a fragment of Ananas work, the founder of
the Karaite Sect ? '^
On October 31, 1901, he wrote with regard to what he called
the crusade aojainst Jewish learning, which was then being
taken up by the American Jewish press, and added : " Some-
thing should be done to show people that ignorance is not the
best accomplishment for a Jewish Minister."
The negotiations had been carried on by Judge Sulzberger,
and very shortly they must have reached a definite conclusion,
for on November 24, 1901, Judge Sulzberger telegraphed me
to Washington the very important message : " Schechter ac-
cepts Presidency," and on December 24, Doctor Schechter
wrote : " I have given to-day notic e to all the institutions with
which I am officially connected to take effect at the end of the
Lent term, March 15.^^
There were various causes, apart from the call to a new post,
which finally induced Doctor Si-hecliter to come to America.
When he first went to England he had acquired a real liking
and respect for the late Chief Kabbi, Doctor Hermann Adler,
which I know was reciprocated, because when Doctor Jacobs
came to America Doctor Adler wrote me that, though we were
to get Jacobs, he thought that he had succeeded in persuading
Schechter to stay, and just before leaving England Schechter
wrote there are " certain people determined to attack Doctor
Adler, but I think that he is right. Ho has faults, but on the
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 57
whole he is the real Kav and has the best traditions of the
office/^ He had not, however, found England as free as he
thought, and the Boer War, which he considered unrighteous,
had accentuated a feeling which he entertained against the
ruling classes. In spite of the greatest religious toleration,
the existence of an established church with its influence on the
University seemed to him a cramping of the free spirit. The
definite division into classes, of royalty, nobility, and the com-
mon people, while gradually coming to mean less and less, was
nevertheless artificial, and he felt it to be out of consonance
with the spirit of true freedom. On the other hand, his ex-
tensive reading of American literature had given him a sin-
cere admiration for this country. Lincoln he revered as
one of the greatest men of all times, and his remarkable essay
on Lincoln indicates how carefully and how deeply he studied
the character of that great American. His study of the litera-
ture of the Civil War was as far-reaching and as accurate as
that of his researches in any department in his own profession.
He followed the military narratives as carefully as the political
histories, and every biography and every memoir that he could
secure he read. Though his partiality was clearly for the
North, and he believed the abolition of slavery to be one of the
great triumphs of modern times, he had the deepest sympathy
for the suffering of the South, and his military heroes of the
Civil War were Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson rather
than any northern commander.
Covering the years of his life in America there are fewer
letters which illumine his ideas, as frequent contact rendered
these unnecessary, and his correspondence was restricted to
matters of business. Like many another, whilst some of the
dreams which he brought to America became realities, in others
58 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
he was doomed to disappointment. His last published volume,
Seminary Addresses and Other Papers, which appeared in
September, 1915, indicates in a very fair way his relationship
to the upbuilding of this distinguished institution of learning
and the real understanding which he had of the religious needs
of the Jewish community of America, as well as his opinions
concerning the great movements which affected Jewry the
world over.
His first formal address in America was entitled "The
Emancipation of Jewish Science," in which he pleaded for a
study of the Bible by Jews. He pointed out that the Bible was
not discovered by C'heyne and Wellhausen and that the opinions
of Eashi, Ibn Ezra and Samuel b. Meir often appeared in com-
mentaries under the name of Dillmann, Delitzsch, and Ewald ;
that we were not to be satisfied with the recovery of the Bible
alone, but must turn our attention to the large field of post-
biblical history and literature, and so it appears that in this first
public utterance on American soil, given on May 29, 1902, he
outlined those great projects, a commentary on the Bible and
the series of Jewish Classics, which are to become realities in
the near future. It was to the Seminary itself, however, that
he completely gave himself up, and he did succeed in creating
a great school. Under his guidance there was assembled a
faculty of men of learning who have trained a body of a hun-
dred students, who are now in various pulpits manfully doing
the work of Judaism throughout the length and breadth of this
land, and have even penetrated into the British dominions. The
teachers that he gathered about him, inspired by his example,
have made notable contributions to Jewish literature, and some
of them have taken an important share in the upbuilding of
our Jewish communal institutions. Under his sympathetic
SOLOMON SCHECTHTER 59
guidance and the able administration of Professor Marx there
grew up the most notable Hebrew library of this continent and
one of the three or four greatest collections in the world, this
latter fa(;t being the more remarkable since the European
collections have had centuries in which to develop, while the
Seminary library in its present grandeur is less than fifteen
years old. Other plans, too, for the promotion of Jewish learn-
ing Schechter had in mind. Of the Dropsie College he early
became a Governor, and made most helpful suggestions toward
its organization. A few months after Mr. Dropsie's death he
conceived the idea of some form of consolidation of the Semi-
nary with this new foundation, which inc^luded a great center
for Jewish science which Judaism still wants. " It is a great
opportunity," he wrote, " which must not be allowed to escape
us. I am even dream iii^i^ of a Jewish academy with regular
academicians which, by reason of its authority for scientific
merit, should give Jewish opinion weight and importance in
all matters relating to Hebrew learning.'^
At the dedication of the building of the Dropsie College he
laid a great deal of stress upon the fact that we had an institu-
tion of Jewish learning with which should always be con-
nected original investigation and research. " Thank God," he
declared, " we are beginning to be unpractical " ; that whereas
most men were engaged in doing things, there would at least
be a few who would think things, which he declared to be the
mission of universities and colleges. While on this occasion he
made a plea for impartiality in science, he declared : " T am
grateful to God that I have still some bias in favor of Judaism
.... the boast of non-sectarianism in matters of religion does
not impress me. Tn most cases the man who claims this gift
means nothing else but that he forms a sect for himself." He
60 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
was especially happy and magnetic on this particular evening,
and I recall that the day after the Provost of the University
of Pennsylvania, Doctor Edgar F. Smith, wrote me among
other things : " I want to thank you for the opportunity to
come to Dropsie College. I was delighted with your grand
old man from New York. It was a real treat to see and hear
him." And when I sent this letter to Doctor Schechter he
replied : " I hardly need tell you how pleased I was with the
letter of your Provost and his kind words about me. Nor need
I say how glad I was to be with you on the great occasion and
to speak a few words. I tried to do my best as Governor and
representative of the Seminary, but especially to please you."
Although he had a very strong predilection for Philadel-
phia, where he had formed his early friendships, and had at one
time preferred that the Seminary should be in that city, he
began more and more to be convinced of the importance of the
establishment of a seat of learning in New York. I had sub-
mitted to him for his criticism in 1909 a paper, the purport
of which I have entirely forgotten ; but he wrote on April 30
of that year : " Another point which should perhaps be a little
more emphasized is also Dr. Morais's merit and foresight in
establishing the College in New York. You speak of it in
several places, but the fact of New York becoming with every
day more and more the center of American thought in litera-
ture, poetry, etc., is not sufficiently pointed out. What I mean
to say is that to a certain extent the spiritual hegemony of
Boston and other places is being transferred to New York.
Further, it would also be well to dwell a little on the higher
learning which is cultivated also in other branches, though
only a little of it comes down and becomes directly useful for
the public at large. For instance, my druggist is personally
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 61
more useful to me than a Virchow and other famous teachers
in medicine, whose names are household words in the scien-
tific world. But it is in the end these great men who dominate
the faculties and from whose teachings we benefit, though in
indirect ways The late Mr. Gladstone was in the ha1)it
of calling Oxford and Cambridge ^ the eyes of England/ thougli
they are, as you know, the most conservative places, dominated
by the most unpractical people, living only in ideas."
Having secured and co-ordinated a strong faculty, developed
a great library, and brought about a real spirit of zeal and
enthusiasm among the students, having raised the Seminary to
the plane of a post-graduate professional school, he was just
about preparing to take the step of improving the method of
teaching through the introduction of the tutorial system, thus
giving to each student the specialization needed in view of
the totally different character and previous training of the
students of the Seminary. It is earnestly to be hoped that this
plan may be carried out in the near future. But he was not
content with having established the seat of learning, and so in
accordance with the spirit of his remark about Virchow and
the druggist he made provision to carry the fruits of Jewish
learning, as expressed in traditional Judaism, to the people at
large. It was with this in view that he created the United
Synagogue of America, a Union for Promoting Traditional
Judaism. He had discussed this with his friends for a long
time, and some of them, I among the number, had doubts as
to the wisdom or feasibility of the undertaking. When in
1909 I finally wrote him of my agreement with hi's views, he
replied, referring to the proposed organization : " This will be
the greatest bequest that 1 shall leave to American Israel."
The United Synagogue, he declared, had been called into life
62 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
without any purpose of creating a new division. " Life is too
short for feuds, and the task before us is so great and so mani-
fold that we must spare all our faculties and save all our
strength for the work of a positive nature Indeed, what
we intend to accomplish is not to create a new party, but to con-
solidate an old one, which has always existed in this country,
but was never conscious of its own strength, nor perhaps real-
ized the need of organization. I refer to the large number of
Jews who, thoroughly American in habits of life and mode of
thinking and, in many cases, imbued with the best culture of
the day, have always maintained conservative principles and
remained aloof from the Eeform movement which swept over
the country. They are sometimes stigmatized as the Neo-
Orthodox. This is not correct. Their Orthodoxy is not new.
It is as old as the hills, and the taunt ^new ' can only be ac-
counted for by the ignorance of those who took it into their
heads that an observant Jew, who has taken a degree in a
college, is a new phenomenon representing a mere paradox.
A better knowledge of Jewish history would have taught them
that culture combined with religion was the rule with the Jew ;
culture without religion was the exception. There were cases,
of course, of religion without culture, but these were to be
found only in countries in which culture, such as it was, was
confined to a small official class, consisting largely of clerics
or priests, but in which the population at large had no share,
whether Jewish or Christian. The * New ' Orthodoxy, there-
fore, represents very little that is new. It was the normal state
of the Jew in Spain; it was the normal state of the Jew in
Italy ; it was the normal state of the Jew in England and in
Holland ; it was the normal state of the Jew even in Germany,
after the first calming down of the deluge, of the rationalism
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 63
that came in the wake of the French Revolution, which swept
over the country, and the traces of which are more discernible
on the shores of the North Atlantic than on the banks of the
Rhine. The frame of mind which insists upon the unbridge-
able chasm between the ^ntelligentia ^ and devotion and loyalty
to the religion .of the fathers is, at present, limited to the
countries in the Near East just emerging from a state of bar-
barism, as is the case with Russia .... there were always
Jews who were not carried away by big words. They knew well
that a label meant nothing. You may describe yourself a
Progressive and find, after a careful analysis, that you are
woefully backward both in your philosophy and in your con-
ception of history. You may call yourself a Liberal and be
as narrow in your sympathies and as limited in the sphere of
your thought as your worst opponent. You may stigmatize
Orthodox Judaism as un-American, and suddenly discover that
real Americanism meant reverence for the Bible as the word of
69d, obedience to the authority of the Scriptures, which lay
at the foundation of this country, and that love for institutions
and memories of the past is a particular feature with the best
American minds.^^
To the Jewish Publication Society of America he gave his
powerful support from the very beginning. Indeed he had
evinced his interest before he came to America. He sat on its
Publication Committee and was one of the Board of Editors
of the Bible Translation ; the latter piece of work he did with
great unwillingness and simply from a sense of loyalty to the
Society* He often said that for a man of his age and duties
thirty days in the year for meetings for a period of seven years
was too large a slice out of his life. Had he been spared he
would undoubtedly liave been the master mind in planning the
3
64 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
commentary on the Bible, a project which he long had at heart.
He was the Chairman of the Committee on the Series of Jewish
Classics to be published by the Society, and in this work he had
genuine pleasure, and it should be recorded that under his
guidance the general outlines of the plan were agreed upon,
and the very last days of his life were spent in their execution.
While he was devoted to matters of Jewish learning, educa-
tion, and religion, he took no active part in those general
questions which have stirred the Jews of America, especially
since the beginning of the Russian persecutions. The agitation
with reference to the abrogation of the treaty with Russia and
its importance from the point of view of American citizenship
deeply moved him and caused him to write a letter on the sub-
ject to one of the New York newspapers. And after the House
of Representatives had approved the resolution to abrogate the
treaty, he wrote : *^ Let me congratulate you most heartily on
your great success and your contribution to this success. It
is the greatest deed known to me in the annals of Jewish his-
tory of this century, and its significance probably goes much
deeper than the public at large is able to see. It means the
beginning of the redemption of Russian Jewry, which, I still
hope to God, I may be worthy of seeing. But I am grateful
for having seen the beginning."
i . JFrom the important movement known as Zionism for a time
he held aloof. The original plan of a secular Jewish state
propounded by Doctor Herzl did not attract him. He was
interested in Jews mainly because of Judaism, and like every
good Jew longed and prayed for the restoration of Palestine
and the coming of the Messiah. The presence among the
leaders of Zionism of so many who had shown no particular
allegiance to our religion likewise chilled his ardor. But when
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 65
there was a new alignment, and the Zionist movement was
being attacked by some of its former friends and leaders who
launched the Territorialist movement, which he considered
purely material and a direct blow to Jewish aspirations, he
boldly and unhesitatingly in 1906 gave his allegiance to the
cause, and became one of its most capable and thoughtful advo-
cates. He never subscribed' to the most recent development
of this movement in its nationalistic form, and his last writing
on the subject, in the preface to the volume published in 1915,
undoubtedly expressed his mature and final thought :
** Speaking for myself, Zionism was, and still is, the most
cherished dream I was worthy of having. It was beautiful to
behold the rise of this mighty bulwark against the incessantly
assailing forces of assimilation, which became the more dan-
gerous, as we have now among us a party permeated by
Christianizing tendencies, the prominent leaders of which are
even clamoring for a recognition of Paul, the apostle to the
heathen — ^not to the Jews. These tendencies which, it must be
said in justice, would have been strenuously opposed by the
founders of the Reform school, are now thrust upon us on every
occasion, and Heaven knows where they might have landed us
but for the Zionist movement which again brought forth the
national aspect as a factor in Jewish thought.
But this dream is not without its nightmares. For in their
struggle to revive the national sentiment, some of the Zionist
spokesmen, calling themselves by preference Nationalists,
manifested such a strong tendency to detach the movement
from all religion as can only end in spiritual disaster. There
is such a thing as the assimilation of Judaism even as there is
such a thing as the assimilation of the Jew, and the former is
botmd to happen when religion is looked upon as a negligible
66 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
quantity. When Judaism is once assimilated the Jew will
surely follow in its wake, and Jew and Judaism will perish
together. All this is a consequence of preaching an aspect of
nationalism more in harmony with Roman and similar modern
models than with Jewish ideas and ideals. However, night-
mares are fleeting and evanescent — the vision as a whole still
remains glorious. The aberrations will, let us hope, be swept
away quickly enough, as soon as their destructive nature is
realized by the majority of the Zionists whose central ideas
should and will remain God and His people, Israel."
The milestones of his work in America can best be found in
this last published work which appeared in September, 1915.
Upon his arrival he saw the vision of creating a theological
center which should be all things to all men, reconciling all
parties and appealing to all sections of the community. That
he did appeal to all sections of the community there is no
doubt, but it was not long before he saw that the reconciliation
of all parties was not possible in the immediate future. But
he nevertheless did his best to sound the conciliatory note, and
in the preface to this last book he writes : " Standing, as
the seminary does, for the healthy development of traditional
Judaism in the midst of many movements and vagaries, none
of which are without excesses and against which we are con-
stantly struggling, it was not possible that the controversial
feature should be entirely eliminated from the volume. Yet it
will be found that the ultimate goal at which we are aiming is
union and peace in American Israel ; the union of which I am
thinking is not one of mere organization .... the union we
are in need of is one on principle and the recognition of vital
facts decisive in our past and indispensable for our safety in
the future, by which alone Israel can hope for a name and
remainder upon the earth."
SOLOMON SCHECHTER 67
I have tried faintly to portray an outline sketch of a man
who was unique in his generation, a giant of intellect and
learning in the world of scholarship at large, and who was in all
probability the most important Jew of his time. But his
genius, his scholarship, his leadership, the contributions that
he made to every department of Jewish learning, the glory that
he reflected upon the Jewish name are but a small portion of
the picture of this noble and good man. He had sagacity,
insight, and what I would call Jewish statesmanship in its
highest form. While every fiber of his being was consecrated
to Judaism, he was a citizen of the world, and no man could
have taken a deeper interest in the great currents which move
humanity, nor would there be found any who could interpret
them more clearly than he. He was simple, tender, and con-
siderate; he respected age and position, but even more, hon-
esty and worth. He loved children, and counted hosts of little
ones among his friends. He was a deeply religious man, re-
ligious not only in the outward sense, but all his acts in life
were conditioned by his belief and trust in God, and his
belief in God^s goodness was so great that even under circum-
stances which would have depressed most men, he was confi-
dent and happy. And above all the material things that this
world could bring him, all the scholarly success that he had,
and all the honors that were bestowed upon him, he cherished
love for his family and affection for his friends.
While I exult in the man, I mourn and lament the friend
whom I loved. ^^ There is no exchange for a faithful friend."
68 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
JOSEPH JACOBS
BY MAYER SULZBEEGEB
Joseph Jacobs was one of the important figures in the Jewry
of our age. Bom in New South Wales, educated in England,
living there till his forty-sixth year, settled in this country
during the last sixteen years of his life, he was in himself a
type of the humanity and universality of the Jewish people.
He was born at Sydney on August 29, 1854, and died at
Yonkers, in the State of New York, on January 30, 1916, in
the sixty-second year of his age.
His life was thus sharply divided into three periods. Of
his first — the stage of juvenile preparation — ^we know nothing.
At an early age, probably in his eighteenth year, we find him
at St. John's College, University of Cambridge. His degree
of B. A. he took in 1876, being the senior " moralist " of the
year. At the university he appears to have been keenly inter-
ested in mathematics, in history, in philosophy, in anthro-
pology, and in general literature.
These interests, as he developed, took shape in two distinct
lines of mental activity, literature and anthropology, of which
folk-lore is an important part. For the former, whoever may
have been his living preceptors, he sat at the feet of the great
masters from Chaucer to Browning. He was at home in the
whole field of English literature, and loved its masterpieces in
prose and poetry. He wrote with ease and grace, so that even
his researches in matters of pure science were free from the
stiffness commonly ascribed to the average professor's style.
UijjxJ^L»4>
JOSEPH JACOBS 69
Had he followed literature as a career he might have at-
tained a high place in the illustrious roll of honor of Britain's
literary worthies. One has but to read the specimens embodied
in his "Essays and Reviews" (London, 1891) to be con-
vinced of his marvellous powers of thought and diction.
Fate, however, determined otherwise. In the ver}' year of
his graduation (1876) George Eliot's Daniel Deronda was
published. It ventured to treat a great Jewish problem with
understanding and sympathy. That this might not rouse the
enthusiasm of critics the authoress well knew. On December
1, 1876, she writes in her journal : " I have been made aware of
much repugnance or else indifference towards the Jewish part
of ^ Deronda,' and of some hostile as well as adverse reviewing.
.... Words of gratitude have come from Jews and Jewesses,
and these are certain signs that I may have contributed my
mite to a good result."
That the hostility of the criticisms on Daniel Deronda
grieved George Eliot is doubtless true, notwithstanding her
assertion that she never read criticisms of her works. There
are always good friends who spare us the labor of reading
disagreeable things by telling us of them with painful fidelity.
To the fresh and youthful mind of Jacobs the practical una-
nimity of hostile criticism conveyed the message that even in
his beloved England there was a strain of Jew-hatred, uncon-
scious perhaps, but widely prevalent.
Under the stress of this feeling he wrote the critical essav
entitled "Mordecai," which appeared in Macmillan's Maga-
zine (June, 1877). It is one of the series afterwards pub-
lished under the title of "Jewish Ideals" (Macmillan & Co.,
1896). As the production of a youth fresh from college, it is
70 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
a marvellous piece of work, displaying wide knowledge and
deep thought couched in language at once apt and noble.
Under the spur of the feeling which produced " Mordecai,"
he went in the same year to Berlin, and there studied Jewish
literature and bibliography under Steinschneider and Jewish
philosophy and ethnology under Lazarus.
When he came back to England he turned to anthropology,
under the guidance of Sir Francis Galton. In the pursuit of
this study his interest in folk-lore increased, and he pursued
the subject earnestly, never, however, allowing his attention to
the Jewish side of the subject to flag.
With interests so wide, an intellect so keen, and a pen so
ready, his literary productivity was naturally great. His pub-
lished writings, numerous as they are, give but an imperfect
idea of Jacobs' phenomenal industry. While engaged in these
serious studies he did an enormous amount of practical work.
From 1878 to 1884 he was secretary of the Society of Hebrew
Literature. When Eussia, in 1881, began its present cruel
persecution of the Jews, it was Jacobs who, in the London
Times of January 11 and January 13, 1882, drew the atten-
tion of Europe to this new development of barbarism. The
result was the Mansion House meeting of February 1, 1882,
and the formation of the Mansion House Fund and Com-
mittee, whose secretary he was from 1882 to 1900.
He was, too, very active in promoting the Anglo- Jewish
Historical Exhibition of 1887, was the honorary secretary of
its literature and art committee, and in that capacity com-
piled (with Lucien Wolf) its excellent catalogue. That
exhibition, held in Eoyal Albert Hall, London, also resulted
in a series of publications of papers of great historic value, in
which he took a leading part. Especially important was the
JOSEPH JACOBS 71
Bibliotheca Anglo-Judaica, a work which, in the language of
Doctor Israel Abrahams, " has been the inspiration of all sub-
sequent researches in that field/^
In 1888 Jacobs visited Spain for the purpose of investigat-
ing the manuscript sources of the history of the Jews of that
country, on which occasion the Eoyal Academy of History at
Madrid elected him a corresponding member. His note-
worthy discourse at his reception into that society is the last
article in his book entitled "Jewish Ideals" (London and
mw York, 1896).
In 1891 he wrote, in connection with the Guildhall meeting,
a further account of Eussian persecutions, with an appendix
on anti-Jewish legislation in Bussia. This is the carefully pre-
pared paper in which occurs the fateful sentence : " The Eus-
sian law declares all Jews to be aliens." The little book was
entitled " The Persecution of the Jews in Eussia," was pub-
lished in London in 1891, and was promptly republished in
this country by the Jewish Publication Society of America.
In 1896 he began the issue of the Jewish Year Books in
England, which have become an institution. He continued
their publication until his departure from England, the last
one issued by him being the one for 1899. These Year Books
were works of great usefulness. They furnished not only
practical information to the many, but contained matter of his-
torical and other scientific value. Indeed, they set a standard
for that kind of publication, which has since been followed in
England and in our own country.
With the year 1900 the second period of Jacobs^ life ended.
He had in 1896 visited the United States, and had delivered
his lectures on The Philosophy of Jewish History before Gratz
72 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
College in Philadelphia, and before the Council of Jewish
Women at New York, Philadelphia, and Chicago.
When in 1900 the fertile brain of Dr. Isidore Singer evolved
the audacious scheme of a great Jewish Encyclopedia, which
should enlist the service of six hundred collaborators, of whom
nearly one-half were residents of countries in which English
is not the national language, it was apparent that the work
could not succeed unless the department for revising the manu-
scripts was of the highest capacity and efficiency. There was but
one opinion as to the proper man for the place, and Joseph
Jacobs was called to enter upon his American career.
It is needless in this presence to enlarge upon the character
of that enterprise. It is one of the greatest works of construc-
tive scholarship that has been produced in America. To quote
Dr. Jacobs himself : ^' It gives a complete Jewish history, a
complete Jewish theology, a nearly complete account of Jewish
literature, and the first sketch of a complete Jewish sociology.^'
Moreover, it furnishes illustrations to the number of nearly
2500. Of these, 63 are maps, 112 are specimens of Hebrew
typography, 333 are portraits, and there is a goodly number
of facsimiles of manuscripts.
Jacobs was not only the revising editor, responsible for the
English of the myriad articles contained in the work, but he
had also his special departments in which he was an expert,
namely, "Anthropology^^ and "Jews of England." An idea
of his labors may be obtained from the fact that more than
four hundred articles, were written by him, and that the valu-
able illustrations were largely due to his efforts.
During his presence in this country he was actively engaged
in practical affairs. He took a lively interest in the American
Jewish Historical Society, was a working member of the Publi-
JOSEPH JACOBS 73
cation Committee of the Jewish Publication Society, was for
some years a professor in the Jewish Theological Seminary,
since 1906 was editor of the American Hebrew, and since 1914
director of the Bureau of Jewish Statistics. With these mani-
fold occupations he found time to make psychological experi-
ments and observations intended to be utilized in a great book
he had long planned, and to which I shall presently allude.
As far back as 1889 he had privately printed his " Plan of
a Projected Work/^ which he tentatively called " The Jewish
Race — A Study in National Character." It was to be divided
into two main parts, with an introductory part.
The introduction was to have two chapters (three sections).
The first part was to have nine chapters (twenty-two sec-
tions) . It was entitled " Traits."
The second part was to have twelve chapters (forty-two
sections) . Its title was to be " Historic Causes."
And the whole was to be rounded out by a " Conclusion."
He had tentative titles for each of the sections. Sixteen of
these sections had as early as 1889 been printed under various
titles, and there is little doubt that he had always worked at
some of the others, and it may be that he left the book in a
finished state. The hope that this may be so is strengthened by
the remark of Professor Marx, in the American Hebrew of
February 11, 1916, that he saw all but the concluding chapter
of a work which is probably the same as that so carefully
planned more than a quarter of a century since.
Needless to say. Dr. Jacobs' reputation in England was
great. He was one of the leading contributors to the
Athenceum, was called to edit Folk-Lore, was looked upon as
the leading authority on fairy tales and the migration of fables.
He was president, too, of the Jewish Historical Society. In
74 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Spain he was received into the Royal Academy of History, and
in this country the Brooklyn Institute elected him a member,
and the University of Pennsylvania conferred on him its de-
gree of Doctor of Letters.
It is still too early to assign to Dr. Jacobs the place to
which he is fairly entitled in the realms of English literature,
of folk-lore, of anthropology, and of Jewish history and eth-
nology. Personally I am convinced that it will be high.
In conclusion, let me speak a word of appreciation^ of the
man. His was a noble nature, incapable of envy. With an
insatiable thirst for knowledge, he was always ready to wel-
come a fellow-inquirer. His abundant stores were at every
one^s disposal, and neither the youth nor the humble position
of the worker hindered his admiration of any achievement.
He was, in the beautiful language of his friend and mine,
Israel Zangwill, of " the simple brotherhood of souls that seek
the highest good," " confronting life with kindly eyes, a
scholar unafraid."
The opportunity to prepare a complete bibliography has
been denied me. Enough, however, can be mentioned offhand
to show his fertility. The dates of the publications do not
refer to the dates of authorship of the contents, but to their
collection into volumes.

JEWS IN THE UNITED STATES ARMY AND NAVY
BY LEWIS LANDES ♦
As the question of preparedness is before the public, and as
the Council of Young Men's Hebrew Associations extend
their activities to the soldiers and to the sailors, it is naturally
of interest to know how many Jews there are in our Army and
Navy. The Jews constitute only two per cent of the country's
population ; what percentage do they form in the military and
naval service ? For the past four months the Bureau of Sta-
tistics of the American Jewish Committee, in conjunction
with the Council of Young Men's Hebrew and Kindred Asso-
ciations, has been endeavoring to answer this question.
This is the first attempt that has been made to secure such
figures, and the task has been a diflScult one. It is not half
completed yet.
The method employed was as follows :
A letter was written to all regimental post commanders
throughout the Army, asking them to send the names of Jews
in their commands; and a similar letter was written to the
commanding oflScers of ships in the Navy, asking the names of
the men of Jewish faith on the ships.
These answers, of course, were purely voluntary.
Accordingly 757 letters were sent to such commanding
officers, 383 to the Army and 364 to the Navy. Of the total
number of 757 letters sent, 181 replies have to date been
♦ Executive Secretary Army and Navy Department Council of
Y. M. H. and Kindred Associations.
JEWS IN THE UNITED STATES ARMY AND NAVY 77
received from the Army oflScers and 149 from the Naval
officers. In very many instances these answers have been
incomplete.
In the following r6sum6, which gives the results and esti-
mates thus ascertained, the different branches of the service
are arranged not according to the military requirements, but
according to the larger numbers as secured by the Bureau of
Statistics.
1. Infantry, 5. Signal Corps.
2. Coast Artillery. 6. Engineers.
3. Cavalry. 7. Hospital Corps.
4. Field Artillery. 8. Ordnance Corps.
Infantry
At present there are 30 regiments of Infantry, one regiment
consisting of colored men. Our estimate is therefore based on
29 Infantry organizations.
Eeplies were received from 12 regimental commanding
officers with a total of 729 names of Jewish men. The average
for a regiment would be about 61, although in many instances
the figures given amounted to more than 100 to a regiment.
The estimated result would, therefore, total 1709 Jews in the
29 Infantry regiments.
Coast Artillery
There are 170 companies of Coast Artillery. Figures were
secured from 59 companies with a total of 377 Jews; the
average would, therefore, be about 6 to a company and a total
of 1020 for 170 companies.
i
78 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Cavalry
There are 16 regiments of Cavalry, one being colored.
Our estimate is, therefore, based on 14 organizations. Of
14 commanding officers, 6 replied as having 336 Jews. The
average secured, therefore, would be about 56 to a regiment,
or an estimated total of 784 for the 14 regiments.
Field Artillery
Of the 6 regiments of this branch of the service, 6 organiza-
tions sent complete returns, with a total of 188 Jews. That
gives an average of 38 to an organization and a total of 228.
Signal, Hospital, Engineers, and Ordnance Corps did not
send in complete returns, and for that reason no estimate can
as yet be presented.
According to the available records, the number of men
serving with the different military organizations of the country
is given below, and directly opposite is placed the estimated
number of Jews in these branches of the service.
War Department Estimate of Jews
June 1916 January 1916
Infantry 28,998 1,709
Coast Artillery 17,901 1,020
Cavalry 12,823 784
Field Artillery 4,992 228
Total 64,714 3,741
These figures do not include the Porto Rico regiment and
the Philippine scouts.
It will, therefore, be noted that these estimates and the
figures given by the War Department show that Jews serving
in the Army amount to six per cent of the total enlistment.
•JEWS IN THE UNITED STATES ARMY AND NAVY 79
It may be asked, if the War Department does not keep a
record of Jews, how can the commanding officer reply to our
question ?
In investigating this matter, it was found that in nearly all
cases notices were placed on the bulletin board of barracks,
with a request that Jews send in their names to the oflfice. In
many cases the men failed to do this; one company in the
vicinity of New York City is known to have over eight per cent
of Jewish men in it, yet only one sent in his name to the office.
It can readily be seen, therefore, that the figures upon which
our estimates are based are probably much below the real
figures.
According to information furnished by officers, the actual
number of Jews who are serving on 128 ships is 844. These
figures do not include the men on the ships of the dreadnought
type in the Navy, for which no estimate can be made. It,
nevertheless, appears that there are 4,585 Jewish officers and
men serving in our moderate military establishment.
N. B. — Since the preparation of this article the army has been
increased by Congress to a very great extent.

ElXTENSION OF PaLE
August 17. Cabinet adopts following minute: " It has been
observed of late, in connection with the military situation, that
Jews are migrating en masse from the theatre of war, and are
gathering in certain interior governments of the Empire. This is
explained, on the one hand, by the endeavor, on the part of the
Jewish population, to depart in good time from the localities
threatened by the enemy, and, on the other hand, by the order
issued by our military authorities to clear certain localities in
the line of the enemy's advance. The further concentration of
these refugees, whose number has been growing ever greater, in
the limited area now available to them, is causing unrest among
the local native population, and may lead to alarming consequences
in the form of wholesale disorders. This excessive accumulation
of Jewish refugees also impedes the Government seriously in its
eftorts to provide food, work, and medical attention for them.
Under these circumstances, deeming it urgently necessary to take
prompt measures to avert undesirable possibilities, the Acting
Minister €l the Interior has made a representation with respect
to this matter before the Council of Ministers. Taking up this
immediate subject for deliberation, without touching upon the
question of the general revision of laws now in force concerning
Jews, the Council of Ministers has found that the most advisable
way out of the situation created would be to grant the Jews the
right of residence in cities and towns beyond the Pale of Settle-
ment This privilege, established because of the exigencies of the
military situation, must not, however, affect the capital cities
(Petrograd and Moscow) and the localties under the jurisdiction
of the Ministries of the Imperial Court and of War. — 27. Im-

B. Jewish Immigration into the United States
The following tables give the main figures relating to the Jewish
immigration to the United States from the year 1881 to June 30,
1916. For the earlier years, from 1881 to 1900, the results are
only for the ports of New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore;
from 1899 onwards, the figures are from the results of the Com*
mlssioner-General of Immigration. In some instances the figures
refer only to the years 1914-1916, continuing those of the Year
Book for 5674, pp. 431-436.

The Jewish immigration since 1881 is approximately 1,865,000.
On the basis of the per cent leaving the United States since 1908,
the total number departed during this period would be 150,000,
leaving a net increase through immigration of 1,715,000.
Of interest in connection with the number of immigrants ad-
mitted are the data for those rejected on application for admission
and those returned from the United States after admission. The
figures are shown in the table below.

^Year ending June 80.
During a period of eighteen years, the number of Jews rejected
on application for landing was 19,925, or approximately 8 per
cent of the total number of immigrants debarred. This is con-
siderably less than the proportion which Jews form of the total
immigration for the same i>eriod — 10 per cent.
For the same period, the number of Jews returned after landing
was 2,420, or 8 per cent of the total number deported. This,
again, is lower than the proportion of Jews in the total immi-
gration.
Immigration 1913-1916
During the year ending June 30, 1916, there were admitted
15,108 Jews. The number departing was 199. The net increase
through migration was thus 14,909. The net increase for 1914-
1915 was 24,973. The figures for 1914-1915 and 1915-1916 betray
the influence of the European war on Jewish as on general immi-
gration.

The larger percentage of women and children among Jewish
immigrants is indicative of the permanent and family character of
this immigration, an aspect which is emphasized further by the
low percentage of Jewish immigrants departing from the United
States.

Deaths and Resignations
Your Committee reports with great sorrow the death daring
the past year of David S. Lehman, a member from Denver,
Colorado, and Edwin G. Foreman, a member from Chicago,
Illinois.
The following resolutions were adopted as expressive of the
esteem in which these two members were held by the Com-
mittee :
The Committee has learned with deep sorrow of the
death on April 22, 1915, of David S. Lehman, who was a
member of the Committee since its organization, and who
always gave his best endeavors to its work. His death is
a great loss to Jewish philanthropic and civic forces in
America.
Edwin G. Foreman, a member of the American Jewish
Committee, passed away at the early age of 53 on August
26, 1915. He was a member of the Committee since its
organization, and showed a sympathetic interest in its
work. He took a prominent part in the philanthropic life
of the Jews of Chicago, and he was a man of unblemished,
kindly and benevolent character. The Executive Com-
mittee of the American Jewish Committee has directed
that this minute be spread upon its records and that a
copy thereof be communicated to the family of Mr. Fore-
man, with an expression of profound sjrmpathy.
During the past year your Committee was compelled to
accept with regret the resignation of Louis Newburger, Esq., of
Indianapolis, Ind., whose health did not permit him to remain
an active member of the Committee. The various Jewish
organizations of Indianapolis were requested to confer for
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 293
the purpose of selecting his successor, and upon their recom-
mendation the Committee elected Samuel E. Bauh, Esq., to
complete the unexpired term of Mr. Newburger.
The Central Jewish Council of Denver, Colorado, has been
requested to nominate a successor to the late Mr. Lehman.

In District XII the Jewish Community (Kehillah) of New
York City, at its Annual Convention in April, 1916, increased
the membership of its Executive Committee from twenty-five
to thirty-six, and the question of defining the status of the
eleven additional members should be acted upon by the whole
Committee, since it involves an amendment to the By-Laws.
Your Committee recommends the following for election as
members at large: Herman Bernstein, Nathan Bijur, and
Oscar S. Straus of New York City ; Moses E. Walter of Balti-
more ; S. Marcus Fechheimer of Cincinnati ; Albert D. Lasker
of Chicago ; and Alfred W. Weil and Herbert Priedenwald of
Denver.
Chairman of the Executive Committee
In view of the increasing number of matters brought to the
Committee for consideration, it was decided to lighten the
labors of the President by the creation of the oflBce of Chairman
of the Executive Committee, to which Dr. Adler was elected.
Finances
The contributions to the general fund of the Committee
have been encouraging this year, and would have been amply
sufficient for the expenses of the Committee had it not been
deemed necessary to undertake a thorough investigation of
the condition of the Jews in belligerent countries, especially
Russia. In order to defray the expenses of this work contri-
butions to a special fund were requested and resulted in the
collection of $3,760.00.

Immigration
When the Committee met last year there was pending in
the United States Senate a bill (H. K. 6060) containing a
literacy test for immigrants. This bill had already passed the
House of Kepresentatives by a vote of 252 to 126.
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 297
Your Committee co-operated actively with other organiza-
tions in opposing the passage of this bill, and endeavored to
mitigate the harshness of the literacy test and to safeguard the
rights of Jewish immigrants who are refugees from persecution,
by proposing an amendment to the bill which sought to exempt
from the operation of the test such aliens as were seeking
admission to the United States in order to avoid religious or
political persecution, whether such persecution be evidenced by
overt acts or by discriminatory laws or regulations.
Despite all the efforts of the opponents of immigration
restriction, the United States Senate, on January 1, 1915, also
passed this measure, by a vote of 50 to 7.
Before taking final action on this bill President Wilson gave
a hearing to representatives of those in favor of and those
opposed to its passage. At this hearing your Committee was
represented by its President.
On January 28, 1915, President Wilson returned the bill to
the House of Eepresentatives, where it originated, accompanied
by the following veto message which will take its place with
those of Presidents Cleveland and Taft as an expression of the
highest ideals of American patriotism and humanity :
It is with unaffected regret that I find myself constrained
by clear conviction to return this bill (H. R. 6060, an act to
regulate the immigration of aliens to and the residence of
aliens in the United States) without my signature.
Not only do I feel it to he a serious matter to exercise the
power of veto in any case, because it involves opposing the
single judgment of the President to the judgment of a
majority of both houses of the Congress, a step which no man
who realizes his own liability to error can take without great
hesitation, but also because this particular bill is in so many
important respects admirable, well conceived, and desirable.
298 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Its enactment into law would undoubtedly enhance the effi-
ciency and improve the methods of handling the important
branch of the public service to which it relates, but candor
and a sense of duty with regard to the responsibility so
clearly imposed upon me by the Constitution in matters of
legislation leave me no choice but to dissent
In two particulars of vital consequence this bill embodies
a radical departure from the traditional and long-established
policy of this country, a policy in which our people have con-
ceived the very character of their Government to be ex-
pressed, the very mission and spirit of the nation in respect
of its relations to the peoples of the world outside their
borders. It seeks to all but close entirely the gates of
asylum, which have always been open to those who could
find nowhere else the right and opportunity of constitutional
agitation for what they conceived to be the natural and in-
alienable rights of men, and it excludes those to whom the
opportunities of elementary education have been denied
without regard to their character, their purposes, or their
natural capacity.
Restrictions like these adopted earlier in our history as a
nation would very materially have altered the course and
cooled the humane ardors of our politics. The right of
political asylum has brought to this country many a man of
noble character and elevated purpose who was marked as an
outlaw in his own less fortunate land and who has yet
become an ornament to our citizenship and to our public
councils.
The children and the compatriots of these illustrious
Americans must stand amazed to see the representatives of
their nation now resolved, in the fullness of our national
strength and at the maturity of our great institutions, to
risk turning such men back from our shores without test of
quality or of purpose. It is difficult for me to believe that
the full effect of this feature of the bill was realized when it
was framed and adopted, and it is impossible for me to
assent to it in the form in which it is here cast.
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 299
The literacy test and the tests and restrictions which
accompany it constitute an even more radical change in the
policy of the nation. Hitherto we have generously kept our
doors open to all who were not unfitted by reason of disease
or incapacity for self-support or such personal records and
antecedents as were likely to make them a menace to our
peace and order or to the wholesome and essential relation-
ships of life. In this bill it is proposed to turn away from
tests of character and of quality and to impose tests which
exclude and restrict; for the new tests here embodied are
not tests of quality or of character or of personal fitness, but
tests of opportunity. Those who come seeking opportunity
are not to be admitted unless they have already had one of
the chief of the opportunities they seek — the opportunity of
education. The object of such provision is restriction, not
selection.
If the people of this country have made up their minds to
limit the number of immigrants by arbitrary tests and so
reverse the policy of all the generations of Americans that
have gone before them, it is their right to do so. I am their
servant, and have no license to stand in their way. But I
do not believe that they have. I respectfully submit that no
one can quote their mandate to that effect. Has any political
party ever avowed a policy of restriction in this funda-
mental matter, gone to the country on it, and been com-
missioned to control its legislation? Does this bill rest upon
the conscious and universal assent and desire of the Ameri-
can people? I doubt it. It is because I doubt it that I make
bold to dissent from it. I am willing to abide by the verdict,
but not until it has been rendered. Let the platforms of
parties speak out upon this policy and the people pronounce
their wish. The matter is too fundamental to be settled
otherwise.
I have no pride or opinion on this question. I am not
foolish enough to profess to know the wishes and ideals of
America better than the body of her chosen representatives
know them. I only want instruction direct from those
whose fortunes with ours and all men's are involved.
300 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Despite this unqualified disapproval, the proponents of the
measure made strong efforts to have it passed by the House of
Representatives, the President's veto notwithstanding. But
these efforts failed, and on February 4, 1915, the House
decided to uphold the action of President Wilson.
The Passpokt Question
In February, 1915, reports appeared in the press that a
number of banks which are members of the Federal Reserve
System were arranging for the extension of a credit of twenty-
five million dollars to the Russian Government. On January
14 the President of the Committee sent the following telegram
to President Wilson :
Today's newspapers announce that a number of banks in
the Federal Reserve System have arranged for the extension
of a credit of twenty-five million dollars to the Russian
Government. On behalf of the American Jewish Committee,
I respectfully suggest that this action tends to ignore the
resolution adopted by Congress three years ago terminating
the commercial treaty between our Government and Russia
because of discrimination practised against our citizens.
There has been no recession by Russia from the attitude
which compelled the termination of the treaty. In the
absence of binding assurances from the Russian Govern-
ment accepting the conditions expressed in the platforms of
the three great political parties as the sine qua non of any
treaty relations with other Governments, the proposed loan
even if not a breach of neutrality would, if permitted, prove
most unfortunate, since it would virtually nullify the effect
of our solemn declaration of principle and tend to create an
interest adverse thereto in this country.
The President replied that he was referring the telegram
to the Federal Eeserve Board, and on January 18, 1915, the
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 301
Secretary of the Treasury sent the following reply to our
protest :
I have your telegram of the 14th instant, in reference to
" the extension of a twenty-five million dollar credit to the
Russian Government," which you say it is announced that
various banks in the Federal Reserve System have arranged.
I do not know anything about the matter and shall be glad
to bring it to the attention of the Federal Reserve Board.
I doubt, however, if under the powers of the Board it has
any right of interference with the action of member banks
in the system in matters of this sort.
We are all deeply concerned here in the observance of the
strictest neutrality on the part of our Government as well
as of our people toward all the belligerents in Europe.
There have also appeared from time to time reports that
steps were being taken to discuss the negotiations for a new
treaty of commerce with Russia. As a result of the present
war it is very likely that conditions will be favorable for direct
commercial relations on a very large scale between the United
States and Russia. Your Committee feels that this state of
affairs will hasten the negotiation of a new treaty. In view of
the firm stand taken by our Government, it is altogether
improbable that such a treaty will be concluded unless the
Russian Government will give adequate guarantees for equality
of treatment for all American citizens without discrimination.
Your Committee will, however, continue to keep a close watch
over this subject.
The Falashas
In March, 1915, the Committee was appealed to by Dr.
Jacques Faitlovitch, the representative of the International
Pro-Falasha Committee, to come to the aid of the Falashas of
Abyssinia. Due to disease and civil war these Jews were in a
302 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
pitiable condition, and on account of the outbreak of the
European War the educational work which had begun was in
danger of abandonment. The Committee decided that this
was a case calling for its co-operation, and appropriated
$5000 for the relief of the Falashas. This contribution has
been duly acknowledged by the International Pro-Falasha
Committee, which, at the request of the American Jewish
Committee, co-opted Dr. Cyrus Adler and Dr. J. L. Magnes as
members.
Dr. Faitlovitch, the representative of the International Pro-
Falasha Committee, left for Italy en route to Abyssinia in
August, 1915, and at his request the American Jewish Com-
mittee has taken over supervision of the pro-Falasha affairs
in America.
Pending the war the Committee will keep in direct relations
with Dr. Faitlovitch, as correspondence between the head-
quarters at Frankfort and Eritrea is impossible.
Jewish Orphan Asylum, Sofia
The first installment of $500 of the appropriation of $2500
voted by your Committee last year to assist in the establish-
ment of an asylum in Sofia, Bulgaria, for the orphans of Jews
killed during the Balkan War, has been transmitted. The fol-
lowing letter of acknowledgment has been received :

Jewish Obphanage of Buloabia

TO THE AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE,
356 Second Avenue, New York, U. S. A.
Gentlemen:
We have the honor to acknowledge receipt of the sum of
five hundred dollars ($500) or twenty-four hundred and
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 303
twenty (2420) marks remitted for your account through the
agency of Messrs. M. M. Warburg of Hamburg as your suj)-
vention to the Work for Jewish Orphans of the Balkan War.
We wish to express to you our thanks for the valuable
support which you have given our work and for the interest
which your members are taking in it.
The few items which follow will make you conversant
with our activities up to the present time.
By a common agreement among all the important. Jewish
institutions of Bulgaria, a Central Committee was organ-
ized to occupy itself with the work for the Jewish orphans
of the war. It was engaged up to the present in organizing
this work in the form of a philanthropic society with by-laws
approved by the Government, and supported by the Jewish
Committee of the Kingdom.
We have carefully gathered all details concerning the
soldiers killed during the war, their families and the
orphans whom they left. There are in the country about
250 orphans left by 150 Jewish soldiers who were killed or
who disappeared; most of these orphans are indigent and
needy.
The difllculty which we met in assuring ourselves of the
funds necessary for the maintenance of an orphanage, and
the time which we need to prepare and furnish such a place,
have forced us to postpone until next autumn the opening
of the asylum. In the beginning, we will be able to admit
from 50 to 60 children, ranging in age from 6 to 10 years, and
gradually during the following years we will receive the
other orphans who will have arrived at this age. We will
also open two or three workshops in order to teach some
manual trade to the boys and girls, who will receive the
same elementary education.
Pending the completion of preparations, and the time of
the actual opening of the asylum, we are giving pensions
to those families of orphans which are largest and poorest,
in Sofia and in the country. These pensions aggregate about
304 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
800 francs a month, and they will be given for such a time
and in such sums as the means of the work will permit.
We hope that with the generous co-operation of all our
coreligionists of this country and abroad, among whom we
are fortunate to count you as such an important help, we
will be able to realize very soon the foundation of the pro-
jected asylum, and in this way save the future of a number
of families which have remained under our care.
Encouraged by this help, we beg you, gentlemen, to accept
with our sincere thanks the assurance of our profound con-
sideration.
(Signed) Abraham David Levy, President,
Sabath Abiel, Secretary.
The European War
All the calamities which have been visited upon the Jewish
people are insignificant when compared with the disaster which
has come upon our coreligionists in the war zones as a result
of the titanic struggle now convulsing more than one-third of
the habitable globe. Previous misfortunes — even the Spanish
expulsion or the Russian massacres — involved comparatively
few victims, were definitely localized, and were of short dura-
tion. The imagination fails when it is called upon to conceive
of himdreds of thousands of sufferers in a territory equal in
area to that section of the United States east of the Mississippi
Biver. And these multitudes of unfortunates are doomed to
suffer for an indefinite future. Whatever opinion may be
entertained as to the duration of the war, and even if the
struggle should end to-morrow, the wrongs that have been
inflicted upon the Jewish people are almost irreparable, the
loss they have suffered in substance and in blood would take
decades to supply.
report of american jewish committee 305
k;[jssia
When the war broke out the Jews of Russia showed great
willingness to forget the past and begin life anew in a united
and regenerated Eussia. They gave themselves completely to
Russia. Thousands of Jewish yoimg men who had been forced
to leave Russia in order to get the education which their own
country denied them, returned volimtarily to the colors, even
though they believed that all hope of preferment and promo-
tion was closed to them. On the field of battle the Jewish
soldiers displayed a strength and courage which endeared them
to their fighting comrades, and won for hundreds of them the
much desired cross of St. George for distinguished valor. It
appeared at first as though the long desired union with the
Russian people was about to be realized. But it soon developed
that the chains which tied the Jews of Russia to their past
could not be broken. Forces which they could not possibly
control doomed them to the greatest tragedy in their history.
The Pale in which they lived was Polish in origin and popu-
lation. Poles and Jews were fellow victims of the Russian
oppressor ; but instead of being united by the common bond of
suffering, they were separated by religious and racial differ-
ences, which for the past five years had assumed their bitterest
form in an unrelenting boycott of the Jews by the Poles.
When the war broke out the political status of the Poles
changed overnight. The dream of a free Poland revived. Both
the Russian and the German armies found it politic to cultivate
the good-will of the Polish population, whilst they made a
scape-goat of the Jews. The Russian military organization
met with disastrous defeats. In order to exonerate themselves
in the eyes of their own people the military camarilla unloaded
306 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
the burden of Bussian defeats upon the hapless shoulders of
the Jew. They executed men, women, even children, without
the shadow of evidence or the formality of a trial. Stories of
Jewish treachery, circulated by the Poles, were accepted as
the truth, and published widely through the Eussian press and
on the bulletin boards ; but when official investigation proved
these stories false in every particular, the publication of the
refutation was forbidden by the censorship.
The authorities gave the troops a free hand to loot and
ravage, even encouraging them by the publication of orders
officially denouncing Jews as spies and traitors. The result
of this was a series of outrages unprecedented even in Kussia.
More than a half million Jews were driven from their homes,
and reduced to abject destitution.
All the liberal elements of Russia protested against this cam-
paign of extermination, but were powerless in the face of the
military Government. Himdreds of municipal bodies, trade
and professional organizations, writers, publicists, even priests,
petitioned the civil government to admit the Jews to human
equality, or at least to halt its persecution policy. These me-
morials, together with the speeches delivered in the Duma,
constitute a body of evidence from non-Jewish sources which
condemned the Eussian Government in the eves of the whole
world. But when the movement of protest gained such head-
way as to threaten a world-wide exposure of the fundamental
causes of the Eussian breakdown, the Duma was prorogued,
and the censorship became more rigorous than ever before.
At the present time the people of Eussia are rapidly learning
the truth, yet no one may utter it fully.
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 307
GALICIA
During the ten months of the Eussian occupation of Galicia
the Jews of that section suffered even more deeply than the
Jews of the Eussian Pale. For here the Jews were the subjects
of Austria, an enemy of the invader, and no pretext was
needed to maltreat them, and the weight of the Eussian inva-
sion fell upon them mercilessly. Synagogues were desecrated,
Jewish women outraged, and innocent and helpless civilians
massacred.
PALESTINE
The outbreak of the war found about 100,000 Jews in
Palestine, most of whom had been dependent upon relatives
and the pious Jews of Europe for their subsistence. This aid
was abruptly cut off. The small but intrepid group of idealists
who had emigrated to Palestine in order to again make it '^ a
land flowing with milk and honey ^' were suddenly deprived
of the markets for their products.
When Turkey entered the war, she gave the choice to the
Jews in Palestine who were nationals of the enemy countries
to become Ottoman subjects or leave; about 600 Jews were
expelled, and an additional 7000 voluntarily departed.
The plight of the Jewish population was further aggravated
by the Government requisition of grain, petroleum, vehicles
and beasts of burden, and by the visitation of a plague of
locusts.
THE AMERICAN JEWISH RELIEF COMMITTEE
The Committee realized that in addition to being compelled
to face the need for relief on a large scale of our coreligionists
in the war zones, a war of such magnitude might present to the
308 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Jews of neutral countries, and especially to the Jews of the
United States, opportunities for influencing changes in the
political status of the Jews who reside in countries where they
do not enjoy equal rights. Both aspects of the situation were
closely studied.
In regard to the question of relief, the Committee appre-
ciated that nothing less than the co-operation of all the Jews in
America could meet the incalculable needs of our brethren in
Europe and in Asia, and that an appeal for funds by one
organization would not obviate the issuance of appeals by other
organizations and thus jeopardize the success of relief work.
The Committee therefore called a Conference of representa-
tives of Jewish national organizations, which met on October
24, 1914, and undertook to organize a joint relief committee.
This has now been in existence for over one year and is known
as the American Jewish Relief Committee. The committee of
five which selected the Committee of One Hundred consisted
of Messrs. Oscar S. Straus, Julian W. Mack, Louis D. Brandeis,
Harry Fischel and Meyer London.
The Executive Committee elected by the Committee of One
Hundred consists of the following: Tx)uis Marshall, Chair-
man; Cyrus L. Sulzberger, Secretary; Felix M. Warburg,
Treasurer; David M. Bressler, Asst. Secretary; Cyrus Adler,
Philadelphia; Isaac Adler, Rochester; Louis D. Brandeis,
Boston; Ceasar Cone, Greensboro; Harry Cutler, Providence;

The joint committee on distribution follows :
Representing the American Jewish Relief Committee, —
Felix M. Warburg, Julian W. Mack, J. Walter Freiberg, E. W.
Lewin-Epstein, Cyrus Adler, Louis D. Brandeis, Leon
Sanders, Louis Marshall, Harry Fischel, and J. L. Magues.
Representing the Central Relief Committee, — M. Engelman,
Albert Lucas, M. Z. Margolies, and Peter Wiernick.
Representing the People's Relief Committee, — Sholom Asch,
Paul Kaplan, and Morris Eothenberg.
The attempt to secure united action through the Conference
of organizations held on October 24, 1914, and through the
subsequent appointment of the Committee of One Hundred,
consisting of representatives of various national organizations,
has not been entirely successful. In addition to the American
Jewish Relief Committee, collections were undertaken by the
Independent Order B^nai B'rith, the Zionist organization, the
Central Relief Committee, and, more recently, by the People's
Belief Committee. This lack of complete co-operation also
resulted in numerous local collections and forms of distribu-
tion. Recently an arrangement has been effected whereby the
Central Committee and the People's Committee are working in
co-operation with the American Jewish Belief Committee, and
we have reason to hope that tlie Zionist organization, too, may
see its way to co-operate more fully with these bodies.
310 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
It should be clearly stated, however, that since the Confer-
ence of October 24, 1914, your Committee has had no direct
relationship with, or control over, the relief work, although
some of its individual members are members of the American
Jewish Eelief Committee.
RELIEF FOR FORMER RESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES
A number of cases in which former Jewish residents of the
United States were unable to leave belligerent coimtries
at the outbreak of the war, were brought to the attention
of the Committee. In every case proper representations were
made to the Department of State and the departure from
Europe of such persons was facilitated.
The Committee wishes to take this occasion to acknowledge
the uniform courtesy and the sympathetic attention with
which all matters brought to the attention of the Department
of State were considered and acted upon.
THE POLITICAL ASPECT OF THE WAR
From its first meeting after the outbreak of the war, the
Committee gave close study to the political aspects of the con-
flict in so far as the Jews of Europe were concerned. It will be
recalled that during the first weeks of the struggle, the belief
was widespread that the war would last only a few months,
and that at its termination there would be a conference of the
representatives of the belligerent Powers which would take
up the various questions which the war had raised.
This belief that the war might end quickly, and that the
Jews of America should take some action at once in order to
REPORT OP AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 311
prepare for bringing the Jewish question prominently to the
attention of the Powers, gave rise to the suggestion that the
Jews of America should meet in a Congress which should
formulate their requests and decide the manner in which these
should be presented to a future Peace Conference. This sug-
gestion was made the occasion of widespread agitation in the
press and on the platform and gained many adherents. Your
Committee discussed the proposal earnestly and at length,
and concluded that on general principles it was unwise and
that at this particular juncture it would also be futile and
dangerous to hold such a Congress. The Committee appre-
ciated, however, that in dealing with the political aspects of
the situation, as with the question of relief, the co-operation of
all Jews was desirable. It therefore decided to call a con-
ference of the representatives of national organizations — each
to be represented by its president and another member — ^for the
purpose of consultation with a view to devising a program,
insofar as a program could be laid out at a time when the
situation was changing constantly.
In the meanwhile the Jewish Community (Kehillah) of
New York City, a constituency of the American Jewish Com-
mittee, held its Annual Convention on April 25, 1915. At this
Convention the President of the Committee, Mr. Marshall,
presented a report of the work of the Committee for the pre-
vious year, and the views of the Executive Committee of the
American Jewish Committee with regard to the inadvisability
of a Congress. N'evertheless a resolution was introduced at
the Convention setting forth the desirability of a Congress and
recommending that the Committee take steps to assemble such
a gathering. The Convention finally decided to adjourn for
one month.
312 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
During the following month conferences were held between
representatives of the American Jewish Committee and repre-
sentatives of those elements which favored a Congress. As a
result of these discussions, the following resolution was
adopted at the adjourned Convention of the Kehillah held on
May 23, 1916:
Whereas, This Convention of the Jewish Community
(Kehillah) of New York City favors the idea of holding a
conference of delegates from Jewish societies throughout the
country, chosen by their membership, for the sole purpose of
considering the Jewish question as it affects our brethren
in belligerent lands, and in view of the fact that the Ameri-
can Jewish Committee has heretofore decided to hold a Con-
ference to which the heads of the leading Jewish organiza-
tions of the country are to be invited for the purpose of
considering the same subject, be it
Resolved, That the Jewish Community (Kehillah) of New
York City, as a constituent part of the American Jewish
Committee, recommend to the latter that it hold a special
meeting of its members with all convenient dispatch to con-
sider the advisability of calling a Conference of the char-
acter favored by this Convention, in lieu of the Conference
which the American Jewish Committee has heretofore
planned.
In accordance with the recommendation contained in the
foregoing resolution, a special meeting of the General Com-
mittee was held on June 20, 1916, at which the following
resolutions were adopted:
Resolved, That a Conference be held of delegates from
Jewish national societies throughout the country, for the
sole purpose of considering the Jewish question as it affects
our brethren in belligerent lands;
That the number of delegates to this Conference shall not
exceed one hundred and fifty;
REPORT OP AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 313
That each organization shall choose its delegates in such
manner as it may deem advisable; but it is recommended
that in the selection of delegates the members of the organi-
zations or their governing bodies be enabled to express pref-
erence for delegates;
That a special committee of seven be appointed to desig-
nate the organizations to be invited to participate in the
Conference, and to work out a basis of representation for the
various organizations to be invited;
That the Conference shall take place at Washington, D. C,
as nearly as possible to October 24, 1915, and that the several
organizations which are to participate be requested to select
their delegates not later than October 10, 1915;
That the Executive Committee be empowered te defer the
convening of the Conference if circumstances shall arise to
render such action advisable;
That the President of the Committee be authorized and
instructed to learn from representative leaders of our co-
religionists in belligerent and neutral lands how best the
Jews of this country at this time and pending war may
promote the best interests of their brethren in belligerent
lands, and aid in securing for them equal rights; that until
this information is obtained a Conference shall not be held.
In accordance with the terms of these resolutions, the fol-
lowing committee was appointed to name the organizations to
be invited to the Conference and to allot the delegates among
the organizations selected: Cyrus Adler, Chairman; Harry
Cutler, Samuel Dorf, Julian W. Mack, J. L. Magnes, Bernard
Semel, and Isaac M. UUman.
This committee of seven met, and taking as a basis the
national organizations which were listed in the American
Jewish Year Book, selected all the national organizations in
that volume, except junior and auxiliary societies, or such as
were by the terms of their charter limited in tlieir operations
314 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
to a single state. Taking into consideration the diversified
interests of the Jews of America, the number of members in
each organization, and the geographical distribution of the
Jewish population in the United States, it apportioned the
number of delegates among the organizations as follows:

In view of the fact that the Federation of American
Zionists was to hold its Annual Convention on June 27-30,
the following invitation was sent to that organization :
June 24, 1915.
Dear Sir:
I have the honor to enclose herewith the text of the resolutions
adopted by the American Jewish Committee at a special meeting
held on Sunday, June 20, with a view to convening a Conference
of represenatives of national Jewish organizations, to consider the
Jewish question as it aftects our brethren in belligerent lands. I
beg to request that you lay these resolutions before the Conven-
tion of your body, and ask it to elect or appoint seven delegates to
this Conference.
316 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Trusting that your organization will see its way to accept this
invitation, I am,
Very truly yours,
(Signed) Ctbus Adleb,
Chairman, Executive Committee.
Louis Lipsky, Esq.,
Chairman, Executive Committee,
Federation of American Zionists,
Boston, Mass.
The Convention of the Federation of American Zionists
referred this invitation for action to the Provisional Execu-
tive Committee for General Zionist Affairs with the recom-
mendation that that Committee take steps to call a Congress.
As the Provisional Committee desired to confer with the
American Jewish Committee with regard to the entire ques-
tion, a conference was arranged between Louis D. Brandeis,
Esq., Chairman of the former body, and Dr. Cyrus Adler,
Chairman of the Executive Committee of the American
Jewish Committee. Prof. Felix Frankfurter, who is a mem-
ber of both the American Jewish Committee and the Pro-
visional Committee, was also present. The following minute
of this conference was drawn up by Prof. Frankfurter :
Dr. Adler explained the basis of selection of the various Jewish
organizations throughout the United States, which the Jewish
Committee tentatively had in mind to invite to a proposed Con-
ference (throughout the discussion Dr. Adler used the term " Con-
ference " and Mr. Brandeis spoke of a '* Congress "), and the num-
ber of votes to be allocated to each of these organizations in such a
Conference, the total not to exceed a membership of one hundred
and fifty representatives. Mr. Brandeis stated that the number of
delegates, the size of the Congress, did not appear to him a matter
of vital moment, but the basis of the inception of such a Congress,
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 317
the manner of the selection of its delegates, was a vital matter.
Mr. Brandeis, therefore, suggested that Dr. Adler and he select,
from the tentative list of organizations which Dr. Adler submitted,
a nucleus of from twelve to twenty-four organizations, repre-
sentatives of which should be invited to a preliminary conference,
whose purpose it should be, in turn, to invite all appropriate Jew-
ish organizations of the United States to meet in a national Con-
gress, to formulate the basis of membership in such a Congress,
the number and method of selecting the delegates to such a Con-
gress, and questions of like nature.
As a result of the discussion following this suggestion, a modi-
fied proposal was made that there be called a preliminary confer-
ence. Just as Mr. Brandeis thought that no one organization or
two can or should assume the responsibility or authority of invit-
ing the rest of the country in Congress, so Dr. Adler suggested
that a larger preliminary selecting committee be called as a pre-
preliminary committee to invite representatives of other organi-
zations for a preliminary conference to formulate all the questions
for final Conference or Congress. He suggested that such a pre-
preliminary body consist of the organizations to whom, in the list
ef organizations submitted to Mr. Brandeis, he had allotted seven
and five votes, respectively. Mr. Brandeis suggested that he desired
to consider with his associates the list submitted by Dr. Adler for
the pre-preliminary committee, and subsequently meet Dr. Adler
for further consideration of the matter. Dr. Adler suggested that
his Executive Committee would meet to-morrow, Tuesday, and that
it would be desirable to submit to his Committee the results of the
interview, as well as have Mr. Brandeis consider the results of the
interview with his associates. To this end a minute of the meeting
was to be prepared, which Prof. Frankfurter was asked to draw up.
(Signed) Felix B'bankfubteb.
This minute was submitted for the consideration of the
Executive Committee of the American Jewish Committee.
That Committee decided that in view of the fact that the reso-
lutions adopted by the General Committee at its meeting on
318 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
June 20, 1915, directed the Executive Committee to call a
Conference for the discussion of a specific question, and limited
the number of delegates, the Executive Committee was not
authorized to change the plan, purpose, and scope of this Con-
ference, and could not acquiesce in the suggestion made at
the conference between Dr. Adler and Mr. Brandeis that the
discussion regarding the plan, purpose, and scope of such a,
Conference should be reopened. This decision was communi-
cated to Mr. Brandeis.
A correspondence resulted which has already been sent to all
the members of the Committee, and has been generally pub-
lished.
The Executive Committee proceeded to issue the other
invitations to the Conference.
The following organizations have accepted the Committee's
invitation and have designated the delegates named: .

On September 4, 5 and 6, a Conference was held in New
York City of representatives of Jews who belong to labor
organizations. This Convention formed the National Work-
men's Committee for Jewish Rights, and appointed a com-
mittee of seven to confer with the American Jewish Committee
and with the Congress Organization Committee for the pur-
pose of bringing about united action. At the request of this
committee of seven, the Executive Committee of the Ameri-
can Jewish Committee appointed a committee to meet repre-
sentatives of the National Workmen's Committee for Jewish
Rights.
REPORT OP AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTBEl 321
At a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Independ-
ent Order B^nai B'rith, the invitation of the American Jewish
Committee to participate in a Conference, was considered. In
accordance with the decisions of the Executive Committee of
the Independent Order B'nai B'rith, its President, Mr. Adolph
Kraus, called a conference of the presidents of about twenty-
four national Jewish organizations, which issued the fol-
lowing statement with regard to its proceedings :
The meeting called by Adolph Kraus, President of the
B'nai B'rith, was held at the Hotel Aster at 10.30 A. M., and
was in practically continuous session until 7 P. M. The
meeting was devoted to a frank and friendly discussion of
the relative advantages and disadvantages, respectively, of a
Congress or Conference or of holding neither.
All who spoke at the meeting were of the opinion that at
the appointed time the Jews of this country should, through
concerted action, place before the proper authorities, na-
tional or international as may be deemed best, their basic
demands that the Jews be accorded equal civil, political and
religious rights in countries where they are now oppressed.
It was the general opinion of those present that they
should confer further with one another informally. When
the meeting closed, it was voted that the meeting adjourn

Various other conferences have been held with individuals
and committees, all with a view to securing a united program
and united action on the part of the Jews of America, but
these did not have an entirely successful issue.
In view of the disagreement that existed and of the fact
that there was no particular urgency for the holding of the
Conference planned for October 24, 1915, and of the various
negotiations which were going on in order to secure unity of
action, your Executive Committee, in accordance with the dis-
cretion given to it by the General Committee at its meeting on
June 20, decided to postpone the Conference pending the
annual meeting of the American Jewish Committee.
In accordance with the resolution adopted by you at the
special meeting on June 20, 1915, steps were taken to learn
the views of our European brethren as to how best to help the
Jews of belligerent lands to secure equal rights either now or
when the war shall have come to an end. Letters were sent
to about fifty individuals and organizations in almost every
country of Europe. Many helpful replies have been received.
The consensus of opinion of those who have thus far replied
REPORT OP AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 323
is that the Jews of all countries should agree on a forn^ulation
of what they wish to ask of a future Peace Conference; that
this formula shall contain nothing to which all Jews, no mat-
ter what opinions they hold, cannot subscribe, so that there will
be no internal dissension, and a united Jewry will indorse the
request. We are of the opinion that such a formula should be
in substance as follows :
Full rights for the jews in all lands, and the
abrogation of all laws discriminating against them.
It is suggested that through the good offices of the United
States Government, or by international co-operation or other-
wise, there be secured guarantees in treaties that these rights
shall be observed; and that in the event of the violation of
such guarantees, any nation signatory to such treaties shall
have the right to protest against any such violation and to
appeal to the Hague Tribunal if such violation does not cease.
The Executive Committee has been engaged in this country,
and by correspondence with numerous organizations and per-
sons abroad, in arriving at a clear understanding of the exist-
ing position of the Jews in the various countries, and at such
time as is deemed opportune will present the result of this
study to the proper authorities in connection with the fore-
going formulation.
The Committee has also been informed by the various com-
mittees organized in Europe as to their plans of bringing to
the attention of an eventual Peace Conference the inequalities
which the Jews are suffering in various belligerent countries.

REVIEW OP HISTORY OP COMMITTEE
In view of the criticism and inisrepresentation of the organi-
zation and methods of the American Jewish Committee, your
Committee considers it timely to review at this crisis the
events which led up to the formation of the Committee, the
manner in which it was organized, and the activities in which
it has engaged during the past nine years.
In the year 1903 there began in the Russian Empire a series
of uprisings against the Jewish population which lasted, with
occasional interruption, until 1905. These pogroms aroused
the indignation and sympathy of the entire civilized world.
The Jews of America, who had greatly increased in number
during the preceding twenty years, a large proportion of the
increase having come from Russia, were deeply stirred by these
outrages against their downtrodden and persecuted brethren.
The feeling was universal among them that united action was
imperatively needed, and that this action must have two objects
in view : First, to take steps to the end that these barbarities
might cease and never recur; second, that material aid be
promptly extended to those who had suffered.
The Jews of America had been organized into numerous
associations for various specific purposes, religious, educa-
tional, fraternal, mutual benefit, and economic; but there was
no recognized institution which could call upon all of them to
contribute material aid for the relief of these sufferers from
Russian massacres, nor was there any special organization
established for the definite purpose of acting as a vigilance
committee to watch events and to do everything in its power to
prevent injustice to or persecution of Jews in other lands.
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 325
The immediate need for a central organization to collect a
relief fund was met by the establishment of a National Com-
mittee for the Relief of Sufferers by Russian Massacres. This
was purely a voluntary organization and immediately set about
to establish a central fund for the relief of the stricken Jews
in those cities in the Pale where massacres had taken place.
That this Committee did its work with great efficiency was
proven by the outcome — the collection of more than a million
and a quarter dollars.
But this organization necessarily disbanded as soon as the
conditions which had brought it into being no longer obtained,
and the Jews of America remained without any central body
which could call upon them to cope with future emergencies of
this character or to alleviate suffering resulting from persecu-
tion, disaster, or calamity.
The need for such an organization had become very pro-
nounced within the last quarter of the nineteenth century. The
passage of the inhuman May laws in Russia in 1882 had inten-
sified the misery of the Jewish people in that coimtry, and they
were seeking refuge in America in large numbers.
In Roumania, too, an anti-Semitic oligarchy was denying to
the Jews their status as citizens without leaving to them any
rights as aliens, and this in cynical defiance of the terms of a
solemn treaty signed by all the great Powers of Europe and
agreed to by Roumania. As a result of the anomalous position
which the Roumanian Jews occupied, they were leaving that
country in large numbers to seek equality of opportunity in the
United States.
In Galicia the Jews had become the victims of economic
difficulties which were productive of almost unbelievable
326 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
poverty, and they, also, were looking to this country for sal-
vation.
As a result of these dire conditions the Jewish population
of the United States, which was about two hundred and fifty
thousand in 1876, reached over a million and a half in 1905.
With the rapid increase in the Jewish population of the
United States new problems wqre presented in addition to
those which the earlier Jewish immigrants from Central
Europe had met and solved. The Russian massacres merely
served to crystallize the feeling that an organization of the
Jews of this country capable of coping with these problems
was essential to the proper and beneficial development of the
Jewish people in the United States. In other countries where
the Jews had equal rights with other citizens such organiza-
tions existed. In Great Britain there was the Anglo-Jewish
Association; in France, the Alliance Israelite Universelle; in
Germany, the Hilfsverein der deutschen Juden and the Ver-
band der deutschen Juden; Austria and Italy also had such
central committees. It was during the Russian massacres that
a general desire was expressed for the creation in the United
States of a similar organization to deal with Jewish questions
at large; but the basis on which such a body should be con-
stituted was a disputed question.
It was to discuss this question with a view to arriving at a
consensus of opinion that Messrs. Nathan Bijur, Judge Samuel
Greenbaum, Joseph Jacobs, Louis Marshall and Cyrus L. Sulz-
berger called together some fifty-eight persons representative
of the various sections of the country. A Conference was held
on the 3d and 4th of February, 1906. After a thorough can-
vass of the situation the conferees agreed that ** it is advisable
and feasible to establish a General Jewish Committee in the
United States.^'
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 327
When, however, it came to the question of method, various
proposals were made. One was that there should be a national
Convention or Congress to be elected by the Jews of the United
States affiliated with congregations, and that this Convention
should be repeated quinquennially ; the overwhelming ma-
jority of the conferees were opposed to any such Convention
or Congress. The plan of election proposed was exceedingly
complicated and it was feared impracticable. It was also sug-
gested that, unless such an organization consisted of the most
prudent and discreet elements, the standing of the Jews might
be seriously affected for the worse ; and according to the plan
of election proposed, it was probable that the organization
would not be so constituted. Besides, the organization when
formed would not be in position to prevent those who had
remained outside from challenging its right to speak for them
or from forming rival organizations.
Another suggestion was that there be established a com-
mittee of representatives of existing national Jewish organiza-
tions. It was made clear, however, that several of the most
important organizations would not co-operate in the formation
of such a committee. An attempt by the Union of American
Hebrew Congregations to form such a union of organizations
had failed. In January, 1903, the Council of that organiza-
tion adopted a resolution instructing its Executive Board to
invite " various religious, educational, and philanthropic
organizations of a national character to appoint delegates to an
American Jewish Congress.^^ Invitations were issued to
various organizations, but after a conference with those which
accepted, the Union of American Hebrew Congregations con-
cluded that there was at that time no pjeneral desire for a
Congress, and decided to abandon the project.
i
328 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
A third suggestion which was made was that a small com-
mittee be formed of persons who, while representative of
American Jewry, need not necessarily be formally accredited
representatives of any organization.
This suggestion also met with opposition, but it was the only
one upon which a majority of the conferees could agree.
Finally, at an adjourned meeting of the conferees held on
May 19, 1006, it was resolved that an Executive Committee of
Fifteen be appointed by the conferees with power to increase
its number to fifty for the purpose of co-operating with the
various national Jewish bodies in this coimtrv and abroad on
questions of national and international moment to the Jewish
people, and on November 11, 1906, the first general meeting
of this Committee of Fifty, since named the American Jewish
Committee, was held.
Organization
The Committee realized that in order to do its work most
effectively it needed the co-operation and the support of all the
Jews of the United States.
The organizing Committee of Fifteen had invited the adhe-
sion of Jews who were representative of the varied interests
and the varied points of view of the Jewish people in America.
Representatives of the most important existing Jewish organi-
zations were elected to membership and included in its Execu-
tive body. Later, the Committee provided in its by-laws for
the representation of various national organizations as such.
The Committee also officially announced its readiness to co-
operate with all other agencies having similar objects, and that
it neither claimed nor sought the monopoly " in the accom-
plishment of Israel's work in America.'' It was the expressed
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 329
purpose of the Committee to promote co-operation in American
Jewry " by means of an organization which ignored geographi-
cal origins, useless controversies and polemics, accidental
groups, artificial formulas, and social stratifications, and
which recognized no tests except those which its name implies
— ^those of Americanism and Judaism/^
Advisory Councils
Immediately after the formation of the Committee, an
elaborate plan for the organization of advisory councils in the
various sections of the country was formulated and was par-
tially put into effect. It was believed that by means of this
plan a skeleton organization, similar to the Red Cross, coidd
be effected. In this way the Committee, which would in nor-
mal times be a small body quickly and easily assembled for
consultation, would in times of emergency be able to call upon
a much more considerable number of individuals for help in
its work.
The Kehillah Movement
The realization that the various Jewish communities had
local problems of a character comparable to the national and
international Jewish problems suggested to a number of per-
sons interested in Jewish affairs the advantages of a federation
of local Jewish organizations in each community to deal with
these problems. These federations, moreover, would be the
logical constituencies of the American Jewish Committee. An
attempt at the formation of such a federation or Kehillah was
made upon the initiative of several Jewish leaders in New York
City in October, 1908. As a result of conferences between the
initiators of the movement for the formation of the Kehillah
330 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
and the New York members of the American Jewish Com-
mittee, a constituent convention of the Jewish Community
(Kehillah) of New York City was held on February 27, 1909.
In the constitution which was adopted by this convention, it
was stipulated that the Executive Committee of Twenty-five,
to be elected annually by the General Convention of the
Kehillah, were to be the New York representatives in the
American Jewish Committee. At the present time the Jewish
Community of New York City represents seven hundred
organizations, which are in turn represented by their Execu-
tive Committee in the American Jewish Committee.
Similar action was taken in Philadelphia in November,
1911, and the Jewish Community of that city, representing
one hundred and twenty organizations, elects six representa-
tives in the American Jewish Committee. The city of Denver
also organized a Central Jewish Council representing all the
local Jewish societies and electing two representatives in the
American Jewish Committee. The Committee stands ready
to affiliate itself with any other Jewish communities which
organize themselves along similar lines. The value of such
organizations can no longer be questioned. The New York
Kehillah, during its as yet brief existence of five years, has
had an undisputed influence for good upon the orderly and
beneficent development of Jewish life in the largest Jewish
community in the world.
The Objects of the Committee
The task which this Committee set itself in the first con-
stitution was twofold : (1) To prevent the infringement of the
civil and religious rights of Jews and (2) to alleviate the con-
sequences of persecution. The preamble of the constitution
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 33 1
also clearly stated that before the Committee took any action
it was to consult with persons and organizations familiar with
the situation, and that the Committee was to act only when its
aid was invoked.
The Committee realized that in order to be able to accom-
plish these objects effectively, three things were essential : (1)
Accurate information as to the condition of the Jewish people
of the world; (2) the co-operation of kindred organizations in
the United States and abroad ; (3) funds.
INFORMATION AND STATISTICS
Chaege of Criminality Against Jews
The necessity for accurate information was brought home to
the Committee in September, 1908, when, in an article pub-
lished in the North American Review, the then Police Com-
missioner Bingham of New York City charged in substance
that the Jews of New York committed fifty per cent of the
crimes in that locality, although they constituted but twenty-
five per cent of the population. Great excitement was aroused
by this statement which was widely circulated. Fortunately,
the Committee had at its disposal data which completely dis-
proved General Bingham^s accusation, and after a conference
between him and representatives of the Committee, he pub-
lished in the same periodical an unqualified retraction of his
charges and an admission that they were not based on any
facts or statistics whatsoever.
Bureau of Statistics
In order to know the facts regarding Jewish life and activi-
ties and to have information at hand to refute attacks of this
332 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
character, the Committee established a Bureau for the col-
lection of information relating to the Jewish people, and co-
operated with the Jewish Publication Society of America in
the publication of the American Jewish Year Book.
This Bureau was considerably enlarged in 1913 with the
co-operation of the New York Foundation. A report of its
work during the past year will be rendered by the Chairman
of the sub-committee in charge.
The Associated Press
It was in the interests of securing correct information of the
situation of the Jews in various countries that the Committee
attempted on several occasions to bring to the attention of the
Associated Press the inadequacy of the news respecting Rus-
sian aifairs appearing in the columns of the daily newspapers.
Important occurrences, especially affecting the Jews of Russia,
were often ignored, or if reported at all, salient faqts were
omitted. The Committee endeavored from time to time to
effect a change in this condition of affairs, and as a result of
these efforts a slight improvement in the Russian service has
been noticed.
RELATIONS WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS
The Committee also appreciated the importance of co-oper-
ation with kindred associations in Europe, and shortly after
its organization established relations of a cordial character
with the Alliance Israelite Universelle, the Jewish Coloniza-
tion Association, the Russo-Jewish Committee, the London
Board of Deputies of British Jews, the Jewish Territorial
Organization, the Anglo- Jewish Association, the Hilfsverein
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 333
der deutschen Juden, the Israelitische AUianz of Vienna, the
Central Zionist Bureau, and with a number of national
societies in this country.
THE EMERGENCY TRUST FUND
Inasmuch as the Committee had set itself the task of reliev-
ing Jews from the consequences of persecution or disaster, it
was desirable that it should have at its disposal a large fund
so that in an emergency it could quickly come to the assistance
of those in distress, and not be compelled to make frequent
demands upon the generosity of the Jewish population of
America. There was a considerable unexpended balance in
the hands of the National Committee for the Eelief of Suf-
ferers by Eussian Massacres. In December, 1912, by a decree
of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, the Com-
mittee was adjudged to be entitled to this balance pursuant to
the laws of the State of New York. When this fund, which
amounted to about $190,000, was awarded to the Committee,
regulations were carefully drafted to prevent the use of any
part of the capital or of the income of the fund for any purpose
not akin to that for which the fund was originally gathered.
The fund was to be devoted exclusively " to the alleviation of
the consequences of persecution of Jews in any part of the
world, to rendering them all lawful assistance in the event of
the threatened or actual invasion or restriction of their rights,
and to aiford relief from calamities affecting the Jews
wherever they may occur .^^
At the request of the American Jewish Committee the trus-
tees of the fund had made use of small amounts for these
purposes prior to the transfer of the fund to the Committee.
Thus, in March, 1907, $10,000 was appropriated for the
334 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Jews of Eouinania who had suflFered from attacks. In August,
1907, $1000 was forwarded for the relief of the Jews at Casa-
blanca, Morocco, who had suffered on account of attacks by the
Kabyles.
In April, 1912, $12,000 was contributed for the relief of
the Jews of Fez, Morocco, after an attack by Arabs upon the
Jewish quarter. In December, 1912, $5000 was contributed
for the relief of the Jews who suffered by the Balkan wars.
Since the transfer of the fund, $2500 has been appropriated for
a Jewish Orphan Asylum in Sofia, Bulgaria; $5000 for the
Falashas ; and at the outbreak of the war, $5000 for the Jews
of Antwerp, $25,000 for the Jews of Palestine, and $100,000
to form the nucleus of the fund being raised by the American
Jewish Relief Committee.
INCORPORATION OF THE COMMITTEE
In 1911 the Committee was granted a charter of incorpo-
ration by the legislature of the State of New York in which its
objects were outlined as follows :
" (1) To prevent the infrp,ction of the civil and religious
rights of Jews in any part of the world ; (2) to render all law-
ful 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 tliereto;
(3) to secure for Jews equality of economic, social and educa-
tional opportunities; (4) to alleviate the consequences of per-
secution and to afford relief from calamities affecting Jews
wherever they may occur.'^
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 335
PREVENTION OP INFRACTION OP CIVIL AND
RELIGIOUS RIGHTS
The founders of the American Jewish Committee consid-
ered that one of its most important functions was to act as a
vigilance committee to keep a watch for any threatened
invasion of the civil or religions rights of Jews or any dis-
crimination against them. They also appreciated that occa-
sions might arise when action would be proposed or taken
which, while having no direct bearing on rights of the Jewish
people, could indirectly affect them.
The Census Bill
Thus in January, 1909, a bill providing for the taking of
the decennial census in the United States included the provi-
sion that the census enumerators should ascertain, in addition
to other particulars, the races of all inhabitants of the United
States. Inasmuch as the classification by races used by the
United States Iniuiigration Commission had already caused
many invidious comparisons, and had led to inaccurate con-
clusions often unjustly prejudicial to one or another race the
Committee felt that the danger which might be anticipated
from the collection of such data far outweighed its usefulness.
The Committee felt also that the Jews of America must
always insist upon the principle that to our government
American citizens are either natural-bom or naturalized and
that nc further distmctions must be recognized. The Com-
mittee therefore protested against this innovation in the census
and succeeded in having the census bill amended in this regard'
336 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Naturalization Laws
Another instance in which action was proposed to be taken
that was not consciously directed against the rights of the
Jews of America, but which might have had important conse-
quences for them, was a decision of the Bureau of Naturaliza-
tion of the Department of Commerce and Labor in 1909. The
Bureau then adopted a ruling depriving all " Asiatics ^' of the
privilege of naturalization on the ground that they were not
included among the "free white persons ^^ contemplated in
Section 2169 of the Revised Statutes of the United States. It
is conceivable that in the absence of a definite delimitation of
the category of " Asiatics," Palestinian, Syrian, Arabian,
Indian and Persian Jews might have been considered as
" Asiatics."
This ruling of the Bureau of Naturalization was contested
in the courts in several cities and the Government's contention
was almost everywhere rejected. A case involving this ruling
was argued before the Circuit Court of Appeals by a member
of the Committee on behalf of certain Syrian interveners, and
his arguments against the contention of the Government were
sustained by a unanimous decision of that Court.
While the decision in this case was pending, several bills
were introduced in Congress looking to the legalization of this
ruling of the Bureau of Naturalization by excluding from the
privilege of naturalization all aliens who were not " white per-
sons of the Caucasian race." The most objectionable of these
bills was one which sought to amend Section 2169 of the
Revised Statutes (which accords the right of naturalization to
"free white persons and Africans") by providing that that
section shall not be so construed as to prevent " Asiatics who
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 337
are Armenians, Syrians or Jews from becoming naturalized
citizens." This bill passed the House of Representatives
within a few days after its introduction. It had the vice that
it attempted a definition of " white persons " wholly unknown
to the constitutional laws of this country, and by inference
classified the Jews among those who were not " free white per-
sons.*' The Committee protested against this bill, which failed
of passage in the Senate.
Sheohitah
The Committee also noted that there was a well-organized
propaganda both in England and in several of the states of
the Union against the practice of Shechitah. It was claimed
that the slaughter of animals according to the Jewish ritual
was inhuman and cruel and contrary to law. The Committee
therefore combated this movement which threatened to inter-
fere with one of the most cherished traditions of the Jewish
people.
Extradition of Pouren and Rudovitz
Another event which, though not involving Jews might have
had serious consequences for a large section of the Jewish
people, was the attempt in 1909 by the Russian Government to
have extradited two political refugees, Pouren and Rudovitz,
who had fled to this country. They were charged with arson
and murder, offences extraditable under the treaty existing
between the United States and Russia. There existed, how-
ever, overwhelming evidence that these acts of violence had
been committed as part of revolutionary uprisings which were
widespread in the Russian Empire in 1905. The Committee
appreciated the bearing of the cases of Pouren and Rudovitz
/
338 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
upon a large number of Jews who had taken part in the
Russian revolution, and had sought or would be likely to seek
an asylum in this country. The Committee therefore actively
co-operated with public-spirited individuals and organizations
which were endeavoring to prevent the extradition, which they
were convinced would be a gross injustice to the persons
involved and therefore a violation of a cherished principle that
the United States is a refuge for fugitives from punishment
for political offences. Fortunately, the request of the Russian
Government for the extradition of Pouren and Rudovitz was
not granted by our Government.
The Beilis Case
Similar service was rendered by the Committee in 1912 when
an obscure Jew in the city of Kiev, Russia, was accused of
having committed murder for ritual purposes. All the Jews of
the world appreciated that this was more than the trial of an
individual, that it was indeed the entire Jewish people that
was before the bar. The Committee believed that in order to
uncover the infamous character of the charge against Mendel
Beilis it was necessary to give the matter the widest publicity.
It therefore circulated extensively in the American press
authentic information with regard to this case.
The Jews of the Balkans
At the conclusion of the Balkan wars in August, 1913, a
considerable region formerly belonging to the Ottoman Empire
passed into the hands of the Balkan allies, who, with the
exception of Roumania, had previously had no considerable
Jewish population. Consequent upon the war, Greece, which
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 339
had formerly had only 7000 Jews in a total population of over
two and a half million, acquired sovereignty over more than
85,000 Jews, including those of Salonica; Servia, which had
had 7000 Jews in a population of almost three millions, became
the master of an additional 17,000; Bulgaria, which had had
45,000 in a total of four million, added 75,000 to its Jewish
population ; and Roumania acquired 16,000 new Jewish sub-
jects as a result of the cession of Silistria.
The Committee was apprehensive that the transfer of this
considerable Jewish population from the rule of the Ottoman
Empire, under whose tolerant sway the Jews had lived peace-
fully for several centuries, to that of other governments might
be productive of hardship and forced emigration. The Com-
mittee therefore approached our Government with the request
that it employ its good offices with a view to securing in the
treaty of peace between the Balkan allies and Turkey adequate
guarantees for the protection of the affected population.
Although our country was not to be a party to the Peace Con-
ference, and was supposed to have no standing in the negoti-
ations, the Committee urged that there were two grounds upon
which the United States was justified in making known its
views. to the states directly interested: First, in view of the
likelihood of discriminatory treatment resulting in mass emi-
gration, the doctrine enunciated by President Harrison in a
message to Congress on December 9, 1891, that "the banish-
ment, whether by direct decree or by not less certain indirect
methods of so large a number of men and women is not a local
question ; " and second, that such action was in keeping with
the policy which the United States has pursued for more than
seventy years of acting in the name and at the behest of
humanity whether American interests are involved or not.
340 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Our Government acquiesced in these views, and instructed
the American Ambassador at London to inform the British
Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, who was president of
the Peace Conference, that the United States would regard with
satisfaction the inclusion in the treaty of a provision assuring
the full enjoyment of civil and religious liberty to the inhabi-
tants of the conquered territory, without distinction of race
or creed. The American Ministers accredited to the Balkan
States were instructed to make similar representations to those
Governments. The Peace Conference, however, decided that
it would be superfluous to include a special provision of this
nature, inasmuch as the constitutions of all the interested
states guarantee civil and religious equality, and in accordance
with the principles of international law citizens of annexed
territories, without distinction, become citizens of the annex-
ing state.
EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY
The danger that agitators, by the enactment of repressive
immigration legislation, might deprive the persecuted Jews
of Eussia and Eoumania and the Jews of Galicia of the
opportunity of reconstructing their lives in this country has
caused the Committee the greatest anxiety, and occupied much
of its attention.
The Committee at the inception of its work was confronted
with the necessity of dealing with the threatened enactment of
restrictive immigration laws in our own country. Through
the efforts of those favoring the liberal immigration policy, the
harshness of the laws proposed at the opening session of Con-
gress in 1906 was mitigated and the Act of February, 1907,
was passed and is still operative. Its most notable provision
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 341
is that providing for the appointment of an Immigration
Commission. In order that that Commission might secure
authentic information on the various phases of Jewish immi-
gration, the Committee offered to put at the disposal of the
Immigration Commission data that might be of use in the
endeavor to reach a just and unbiased conclusion. As the
Commission intended to visit the various European countries
which were the main sources of immigration to the United
States, the Committee notified the Jewish Colonization Asso-
ciation of Russia of the intention of the Immigration Com-
mission, so that the Association could prepare a memorandum
on the causes of Jewish emigration from Russia, to be pre-
sented to the Commission on its arrival in that country.
Upon the invitation of the Commission also, the Committee
in co-operation with other Jewish organizations submitted
recommendations respecting the revision of the immigration
laws and regulations with a view to putting an end to various
injustices and abuses.
After three years of study the Commission presented a
report to Congress which evidenced but slight desire on its
part to adhere to the time-honored tradition that has made
this country a refuge for the oppressed of all lands. It was
contended that on economic grounds the increase of our
population by immigration was too rapid and that some method
of restriction was necessary. The reading and writing test
was recommended as the most equitable method of bringing
about restriction.
The report of the Commission was a signal for the intro-
duction of various restrictive measures, each one more drastic
than the other. Two of these bills were actually passed by Con-
gress, but both were vetoed, one by President Taft, and the
A
342 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
other by President Wilson. In both instances the President
of the Committee presented arguments to the President of the
United States urging that he take action to prevent these
bills from being placed on the statute books.
At the same time the Committee endeavored by the publica-
tion and issuance of educational literature on the subject to
point out the fallacies in the arguments of the restrictionists,
and the injustice that would result from the operation of an
arbitrary literacy test.
ACTION TO REMEDY RESTRICTION OF RIGHTS
In the charter of incorporation granted to the American
Jewish Committee by the legislature of the state of New York
the rendering of lawful assistance and the taking of appro-
priate remedial action in the event of threatened or actual
invasion or restriction of the civil and religious rights of
Jews was stated to be the second object of the organization.
At the time of the institution of the Committee there
already existed a number of cases in which the religious and
civil rights of Jews were being infringed upon or wholly denied
to them. Even in the United States, despite the provision of
the Constitution which guarantees to citizens, whether natural-
born or naturalized, an equal standing before the law, citizens
of tlie Jewish faith were being ignominiously discriminated
against — ^not by any authorities of the Government of the
United States but by the representatives of a foreign Govern-
ment on the soil of this country. This discrimination gave
rise to what has since become known as the passport question.
The Committee considered that it was one of its most impor-
tant functions to bend every effort toward the solution of this
question, with a view to ending the flagrant disregard by Russia
of the American passport.
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 343
In addition to this problem at home, the Jews of this country
cherished the most profound desire for the betterment of the
civil and political status of the Jews of Russia and Roumania.
Prom its very inception the Committee watched the course of
events in both countries, and whenever the occasion offered
took such steps to assist our brethren as were deemed oppor-
tune.
The Passport Question
The passport question arose out of the violation by Russia
of a treaty between that country and the United States made
in the year 1832. This was a treaty of commerce and obligated
both countries to accord to all the citizens of the other, without
distinction, the liberty to sojourn and reside in all parts of a
territory, and to guarantee to them security and protection.
There was no exception expressed or implied in the Treaty of
1832. Its terms covered not some but all of the citizens of
the respective countries. But for more than forty years the
Russian Government persisted in violating the solemn terms
of this treaty. It refused to recognize the American passport
in the hands of American citizens of the Jewish faith. The
initial step in this discrimination took place upon American
soil. The laws of Russia require that persons intending to enter
that country must, before seeking admission, have their pass-
ports vised or countersigned by a diplomatic or consular repre-
sentative of the Russian Empire. American Jews who desired
to enter Russia were therefore compelled to apply to Russian
Consulates in this country to have their passports vised. The
Russian Government required its consuls within the jurisdic-
tion of the United States to interrogate American citizens as
to their race and religious faith and upon ascertainment
344 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
thereof to deny the Jews the authentication of passports for
use in Russia. This practice involved not only such American
citizens of the Jewish faith as had been former subjects of
Russia, but all Jews no matter what their antecedents.
Since 1880 Russia violated the Treaty of 1832. The world
is familiar with the efforts made by all of our Secretaries
of State to induce Russia to comply with the terms of the
treaty. But to earnest and persistent remonstrance Russia
always replied by diplomatic evasions and postponements
amounting to a cynical denial of redress or even of respectful
consideration of the question. As a result of these ineffectual
efforts on the part of our Government, this situation existed for
nearly thirty-five years.
The American Jewish Committee gave to this subject its
most earnest confeideration almost from its first meeting.
Assured that no results were to be obtained from further
recourse to the ordinary channels of diplomacy, the Committee
soon concluded that some other and more drastic methods
would have to be devised to make the Russian Government
appreciate that the protests of the United States were sincere
and earnest and not mere formalities. After serious consider-
ation of the question the American Jewish Committee deter-
mined to recommend to the President the abrogation of the
treaty with Russia. This course, it was considered, would be
the most effectual method of impressing upon the Russian
Government the earnestness of the demands of the United
States that it observe the Treaty of 1832. Accordingly, on
May 18, 1908, the Committee dispatched a letter to President
Roosevelt which began the attempt on the part of the organi-
zation to induce the Government to take some effective action
to terminate the controversy. Correspondence with the same
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 345
end in view was also had with President Taft and was supple-
mented by personal interviews with the President and with
Secretaries of State Boot and Knox.
All these endeavors proving ineffectual, tlie Committee
reluctantly reached the conclusion that our Government was
not willing to adopt any other measure than diplomatic repre-
sentation. This promised no better results than had already
been obtained. The Committee therefore decided to lay our
case before the citizens of the United States. An address
delivered by Mr. Marshall at the 22d Council of the Union of
American Hebrew Congregations marked the opening of a
campaign of publicity on the part of the Committee which
finally resulted in the issuance by President Taft of a notice to
the Eussian Government of the intention of the Government
of the United States to terminate the Treaty of 1832. This
action was subsequently ratified by the Senate and the House
of Eepresentatives almost unanimously. On January 1, 1912,
the Treaty of Commerce and Navigation of 1832 between Eus-
sia and the United States was terminated. The effect of the
termination of the treaty was that to future discrimination
against American citizens of the Jewish faith the Govern-
ment of the United States would no longer be a party. And
as treaties are, according to the Constitution of this country,
the supreme law of the land, there would no longer exist a law
which violated the Constitution by permitting discrimination
against American citizens on account of race or religion.
The agitation for the abrogation of the treaty evoked the
sympathetic interest and co-operation of the entire American
press and of thousands of individuals and organizations. It
was universally recognized that the passport question was an
346 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
American question, involving the sanctity of American citizen-
ship and the inviolability of the Constitution. It was purely
as an American question that the Committee, and the nimier-
ous Jewish organizations that gave the Committee their
fullest co-operation, wished to have the controversy regarded.
The action of President Taft and of Congress has been sub-
sequently approved by all the great political parties of this
country, which in their platforms have placed themselves on
record against the ratification of any new treaty with Eussia
which would not recognize the principle on account of the
violation of which the Treaty of 1832 was terminated. The
Committee has kept watch over the situation, and whenever
any reports were current that such action on the part of our
Government was likely, it took immediate steps to bring these
reports to the attention of the President of the United States.
In every case they were declared to be inaccurate. The
Committee is certain that no treaty with Russia which does
not recognize the complete equality of all American citizens
without distinction of race or creed will ever be concluded
between the two countries.
The Civil Rights Law
Another example of the infringement of the civil rights of
Jews was the practice of various hotel keepers of advertising
in newspapers, circulars, railroad and steamboat folders that
Jews are not acceptable as guests. In the summer of 1913 the
Committee advocated the passage by the Legislature of the
State of New York of an amendment to the civil rights law of
the state explicitly prohibiting such discrimination and provid-
ing penalties for its practice.
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 347
This legislation was urged in the interest of the equality of
all citizens before the law and for the purpose of placing upon
the statute books of the state of New York a declaration as
emphatic as could be made that these manifestations of preju-
dice against law-abiding citizens would not be tolerated.
Action similar to that taken in New York is contemplated in
other states of the Union.
ALLEVIATION OF THE CONSEQUENCES OF
PERSECUTIONS AND DISASTER
As already pointed out, the direct cause of the foundation
of the Committee was the need for some organization which,
in a time of emergency such as that which faced the Jews in
1903-5, could extend relief of a material nature. When the
Committee was organized the Russian massacres had come to
an end, but other calamities involving Jews have occurred not
infrequently since that time.
The San Francisco Fire, 1906
At the first meeting of the General Committee held in
November, 1906, the needs of the Jewish religious and edu-
cational institutions of San Francisco, by reason of the earth-
quake and fire which had occurred there, were brought to the
attention of the Committee. It was decided to raise a fund,
and as a result of an appeal over $37,000 was collected and dis-
tributed among several s3magogues and the Jewish Educa-
tional Society of San Francisco, enabling them to repair the
losses suffered on account of the earthauake.
348 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Casablanca, Moboooo, XJpbisings, 1907
In August, 1907, as a result of an attack by the Kabyles at
Casablanca, Morocco, a number of Jews lost their lives, many
were wounded, and a large number of women and children were
carried off. At the request of the Committee, the National
Committee for the Relief of Sufferers by Kussian Massacres
forwarded 5000 francs to the Alliance I8ra61ite Universelle,
which was actively engaged in relieving the sufferers.
Roumanian Outbbbaks, 1907
At the time of the outbreaks against the Jews of Roumania
in March, 1907, the Committee co-operated with various Euro-
pean organizations in coming to the relief of the sufferers. At
the request of the Committee, the National Committee for the
Relief of Sufferers by Russian Massacres appropriated $10,000
for this purpose.
Constantinople Fire, 1908
In March, 1908, a fire destroyed a large section of the
Jewish quarter of Constantinople, leaving 6000 Jews destitute.
The Committee promptly raised $1000 for the relief of the
sufferers for whom the Alliance Israelite Universelle had
opened a fund.
Expulsions from Finland, 1908
In several instances the persecution was of such a nature
that publicity was more necessary than financial assistance.
Such was the situation when in the winter of 1908-9 a policy
of repression and expulsion of the Jews was inaugurated by
the Russified Government of Finland. This important in-
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 349
dication of Eussia^s pogrom policy was not published in the
daily papers served by the Associated Press until the Com-
mittee called their attention to it, when they gave the matter
wide publicity. At the same time the Committee took occasion
to bring to the notice of the oflBcers of the Associated Press
the remarkable paucity of Eussian and Eussian Jewish news
which reached this country.
Bessarabia, Kiev, 1909
On several occasions it was the Committee's duty to inform
the public that reports of excesses against Jews were unfounded
or exaggerated.
Thus in July, 1909, when a Jewish massacre in Bessarabia
was reported the Committee promptly secured through the
Department of State from the American Consul at Odessa a
statement that the rumor was without foundation. In Sep-
tember of the same year reports of a massacre in Kiev were
found upon the Committee's investigation to have been based
upon a slight disturbance which had been immediately quieted
without serious results.
Attack on Fez, Morocco, 1912
The disaster which befell the Jews of Fez, Morocco, in April,
1912, was of a more serious character. In the course of dis-
orders attending a revolt of the Arabs against the French
Government, the Jewish quarter was pillaged and almost
entirely destroyed. The co-operation of the Committee was
asked by the Alliance Isra61ite Universelle. Twelve thousand
dollars was appropriated by the National Committee for the
Relief of Sufferers by Eussian Massacres. With the sums
350 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
contributed throughout the world, the Jews made destitute
were rehabilitated, and the Jewish quarter was gradually re-
built on less congested and more sanitary plans.
Jews op the Yemen, 1913
Upon the request of the Federation of American Zionists
and other organizations, the Committee in 1913 appropriated
$5000 as a loan to the Jewish National Fund for the erection
of houses for Jewish refugees from the Yemen, on the Arabian
Peninsula. On account of the almost continuous state of
anarchy which exists in that region, and as a result of which
the Jews suffer from bitter persecution, they are migrating in
large numbers to Palestine.
The Balkan Was, 1912-1913
The wars in the Balkan Peninsula in 1912 and 1913 were
of momentous interest to the Jews. The sufferings of our
brethren in Turkey were intense. Many lives were lost, many
were wounded ; disease was widespread. Hundreds of refugees
crowded the large cities.
In December, 1912, the American Jewish Committee estab-
lished a fund for the relief of the sufferers, resulting in the
collection of over $8000, and the National Committee for the
Eelief of Sufferers by Eussian Massacres appropriated $5000
for immediate transmission. The Committee also joined a
number of the largest European organizations in the forma-
tion of a provisional body called the Union des Associations
Israelites, for the purpose of closer co-operation and avoiding
duplication in the work of relief. The Union gathered and
disbursed almost a quarter of a million dollars, and sent a
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 351
committee to the scene of hostilities to organize the relief
work on the spot.
This incident served to show that co-operation between the
various Jewish organizations of America and Europe could be
quickly effected and that increased efficiency could result.
In conclusion, your Committee deems it well to repeat the
words of its President at the last Annual Convention of the
Kehillah of New York City :
The Committee does not now seek and has never sought
power or authority. It has proceeded according to its own
conceptions of duty and obligation. It has had no purpose
to subserve but that of furthering the welfare of the Jews,
as such. It has had no ambitions to promote. Its members
have sought no personal honors or emoluments. They have
striven to subordinate their individuality to the cause which
they represent .... Whatever betide, it (The American
Jewish Committee) will continue to act in accordance with
its lights and to do its duty and to meet its responsibilites as
it understands them.
Respectfully submitted,
The Executive Committee.
ACTION ON THE REPORT, ETC.
Upon motion the report of the Executive Committee was
received, and the President was authorized to prepare same
for publication.
Dr. Cyrus Adler, President of the Jewish Community of
Philadelphia, stated that, in view of the fact that the annual
meeting of the Community had not yet taken place, he was
unable to render a report at this time, but that he would
present such a report in time for publication as part of the
annual report of the Committee.

352 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Dr. J. L. Magnes, Chairman of the Executive Committee
of the Jewish Community of New York City, stated that his
report on behalf of that organization would also be prepared
in time for publication.
Report of Membership Committee
Dr. J. L. Magnes, on behalf of the committee appointed to
suggest a new plan for membership in accordance with a
resolution adopted at a special meeting held on June 20, 1916,
reported as follows:
At the special meeting of the American Jewish Committee
held on June 20, 1915, the following resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That a committee be appointed for the purpose
of working out an equitable basis of representation in the
American Jewish Committee with due regard to the char-
acter of the American Jewish Committee as a national body,
and to the fact that the Executive Committee of the New
York Jewish Committee now consists of thirty-six (36)
instead of twenty-five (25) members.
In accordance with the provisions of this resolution a com-
mittee, consisting of Dr. J. L. Magnes, Chairman, and Messrs.
Harry Cutler and Cyrus L. Sulzberger, was appointed. This
committee recommends that the total membership of the
American Jewish Committee should be increased from 96, the
present number, to 125, and that the Executive Committee
shall be empowered to allocate this membership to the various
districts.
Discussion on the report followed, and various suggestions
were made, especially with regard to the representation in the
Committee of other organizations. Upon motion, the entire
subject was referred back to the sub-committee, with instruct
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 353
tions to draft suitable amendments to the by-laws and to sub-
mit them for adoption at the next annual meeting, or at any
special meeting of the Committee, should one be held.
The report of the Treasurer was read and adopted.
The annual report of the Director of the Statistical
Bureau was read and adopted.
CONPBRBNOB OF NATIONAL JEWISH ORGANIZATIONS
Dr. J. L. Magnes, on behalf of a sub-committee of the
Executive Committee, which had been appointed to confer
with the Jewish Congress Organization Committee and the
National Workmen's Committee for Jewish Eights, with a
view to reaching an agreement with regard to the calling of a
national Jewish Conference or Congress, reported that several
conferences had taken place with the representatives of the
two organizations named. At the last conference the following
proposal was made :
That a Conference of national Jewish organizations be
held for the purpose of considering the rights of Jews in
belligerent countries and in Roumanla, and that it call a
Congress on a democratic basis at such time, in such place,
and in such manner as it may deem best to secure such
rights.
Of the conferees on the part of the American Jewish Com-
mittee, Dr. Magnes favored the agreement of the Committee
to this proposal, but Messrs. Harry Cutler and Cyrus L. Sulz-
berger, the other members of the conference committee, were
opposed to this proposal because it contravened the resolution
adopted by the Committee at its special meeting providing for
the calling of a Conference in lieu of a Congress.
354 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Discussion of this report followed, and Dr. Magnes with-
drew his recommendation, and agreed to the recommendation
of the other two conferees that the proposal made at the con-
ference between representatives of the American Jewish Com-
mittee, the Congress Organization Committee, and the
National Workmen^s Committee for Jewish Eights, be not
accepted without modification. After further discussion the
committee agreed to the adoption of the following resolution :
That the American Jewish Committee join with other
national Jewish organizations in the calling of a Conference
for the purpose of considering the rights of Jews in bel-
ligerent lands and in Roumania, and that it take steps to
call a Congress on a democratic basis after the termination
of hostilities and at such place and in such manner as it
may seem best for the securing of these rights.
It was further resolved that the conference committee be
instructed to continue conferences with representatives of
other bodies, with a view to the adoption of a uniform policy
respecting the matter of a Jewish Congress, subject to the limi-
tation set forth in the foregoing resolution.

EEPOET OP THE JEWISH COMMUNITY
(KEHILLAH) OP NEW YOEK CITY
Dr. J. L. Magnes, Chairman of the Jewish Community
(Kehillah) of New York City, presented the following report:
TO THE MBMBEKS OF THE AMEEICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE:
The Jewish Community (Kehillah) of New York City, the
constituent of the American Jewish Committee in its twelfth
district, has the honor to report the following summary of its
activities for the period since the holding of the last annual
meeting of the American Jewish Committee.
At the last Convention of the Kehillah, it was decided to en-
large the membership of the Executive Committee from 25 to
36. The following members were elected : Isaac Allen, Julius
J. Dukas, Mrs. William Einstein, Abraham Erlanger,' H. M.
Goldfogle, Julius Goldman, S. I. Hyman, Jacob Kohn, D.

Straus, J. M. Wachman and Pelix M. Warburg.
At the sixth annual convention of the Kehillah, held April
24 and 25, 1915, the question of calling a Conference of repre-
sentatives of Jewish organizations to consider the Jewish prob-
lem arising out of the war was thoroughly discussed. This
question was taken up further at an adjourned session of the
Convention on May 23, 1915, held in the Concert Hall of
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 357
Madison Square Garden. The following resolution was
adopted :
Whebeas, This Convention of the Jewish Community
(Kehillah) of New York City favors the idea of holding a
Conference of delegates from Jewish societies throughout
the country chosen by their membership, for the sole pur-
pose of considering the Jewish question as it affects our
brethren in belligerent lands; and in view of the fact that
the American Jewish Committee has heretofore decided to
hold a Conference to which the heads of the leading Jewish
organizations of the country are to be invited for the pur-
pose of considering the same subject; be it
Resolvedf That the Jewish Community (Kehillah) of
New York City, as a constituent part of the American
Jewish Committee, recommend to the latter that it hold a
special meeting of its members with all convenient despatch
to consider the advisability of calling a Conference of the
character favored by this Convention in lieu of the Con-
ference which the American Jewish Committee has here-
tofore planned.
Meeting of Delegates
A meeting of the delegates of the Kehillah was held on
November 28, 1915, at which the possible introduction of the
Gary plan or of similar systems into the public schools of New
York was discussed from the point of view of its relation to
religious training.
BuKEAu OP Education
The Bureau of Education is engaged in the following ac-
tivities :
1. It conducts a Department of Information for out-of-town
schools. It maintains a Department of Study and Appraisal
358 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
for the service of educational institutions. An Educational
Reference Library has been collected, and an extensive biblio-
graphy on Jewish education compiled.
2. It collects about $60,000 a year in tuition fees from
parents on behalf of some of the larger Jewish religious schools
of New York, at a cost of 10 per cent to the schools. The homes
of 40,000 children have been canvassed prior to their admission
to the schools. The Bureau gives especial attention to the
problem of attendance, investigating every case of absence, and
has thus brought about a more regular and steady register
than heretofore.
3. It co-operates with Talmud Torahs, Sunday schools, con-
gregational schools, institutional schools and private schools.
4. It is doing pioneer work in the education of Jewish girls,
and conducts schools of various grades for imparting Jewish
education to them : Elementary, intermediate and preparatory
schools, and classes for girls and boys attending the New York
high schools.
5. It has worked out curricula for the various types of
schools with which it co-operates. It has elaborated plans for
a series of text books covering the whole range of Jewish edu-
cation, and has already published 18 text books, which have
been prepared by a special Board of Editors.
6. It co-operates with the Teachers^ Institute of the Jewish
Theological Seminary, under the direction of Prof. M. M.
Kaplan.
Summary: The Bureau of Education directs, supervises
or co-operates with about 200 schools, about 600 teachers and
about 35,000 pupils.
The School for Jewish Communal Work was organized by
the Jewish Community (Kehillah) of New York City, in
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 359
April, 1915. It is at present administered under the joint
auspices of the Jewish Community (Kehillah) of New York
City and the National Association of Jewish Social Workers.
The purpose of the school is to furnish training to all types of
communal workers in Jewish communities in America. A
Board of Trustees of five is responsible for the general policy
of the school, while a faculty of 15, consisting of heads of
great Jewish communal agencies in New York City and other
Jewish communities, has control of the technical administra-
tion of the institution. An Administrative Committee of five
has immediate charge of the affairs of the school.
During the summer of 1915, an extension course was con-
ducted for Jewish communal workers at present in the field.
Bureau of Industry
The Bureau of Industry has continued to conduct the Em-
ployment Bureau for the Handicapped. It has established a
Placement Clearing House for highly skilled and professional
workers.
Surveys are being prepared on the industrial situation and
on vocational training and guidance.
It has settled or averted strikes in the fur-dyeing, millinery,
men^s clothing and women^s clothing industries. It has also
acted as mediator in numerous local strikes, and is now
ofiicially functioning as the administrator of collective agree-
ments in the millinery, men's clothing and fur industries, and
in two allied minor branches of the fur industry — muff-beds
and fur dyeing. In special instances, the Bureau has furnished
arbitrators in industrial disputes at the joint requests of em-
ployers and employes.
360 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Bureau op Philanthropic Research
Upon the suggestion of the Kehillah, which drew up the
preliminary plans, a Bureau of Philanthropic Eesearch has
been established, and will shortly begin its work under the
auspices of the Council of Communal Institutions. In accord-
ance with the by-laws, the Board of Managers of nine is to
consist of five representatives of the council and four represen-
tatives of the Kehillah. The Bureau is to devote itself to mak-
ing a study of Jewish philanthropic needs, with a view to
co-ordination of existing activities and to determining what
phases of the situation are not receiving adequate attention.
The officers are: Mr. Leo Arnstein, President; Mr. Adolph
Lewisohn, Vice-President; Mr. Cyrus L. Sulzberger, Secretary-
Treasurer.
The Emergency Loan Fund was created in April, 1915 ; its
object was to grant loans to various benevolent and loan
societies, whose funds were exhausted, and to self-respecting
people who could not obtain loans at the various loan societies
because they had no guarantors.
From April to December, 1915, the Committee granted
loans to 10 societies in a sum aggregating $15,200; it also
granted loans in small sums to 12 individuals in an amoimt
aggregating $1,295.00.
The officers of the Fund are Mr. Mortimer L. Schiff, Chair-
man; Dr. Julius Goldman, Treasurer; and Mr. Cyrus L.
Sulzberger, Secretary.
Bureau of Social Morals
Co-operation with all agencies in the city, both public and
private, in the matter of the suppression of improper moral
conditions wherever found, so far as they effect the Jew, has
been continued as far as possible. This work has been done
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 361
under the auspices of the Bureau of Morals quietly, and without
publicity.
Keligious Organization
1. A Committee of One Hundred Baale-Battim has been
constituted to supervise and regulate the sale of Kosher meat
in accordance with the Kosher Bill, and to organize a federa-
tion of Orthodox congregations.
2. Pour provisional synagogues were conducted during the
high holidays under the direction of Jewish young men^s
societies.
3. An association of owners of ritual baths (Mikvehs) has
been formed to standardize . the hygienic conditions of the
baths. The Department of Health has publicly approved these
efforts.
4. A group of physicians and rabbis has been constituted a
Board of Milah (circumcision). Mohelim are examined on
their knowledge of hygiene and of ritual requirements, and
certificates are issued to those who conform to the standards of
the Board. A pamphlet has been issued for the guidance of the
Mohelim, which has been endorsed by the Department of
Health.
5. A committee has been organized for the purpose of abol-
ishing certain practices at Jewish cemeteries on Tisha b^Ab
(Past of Ab).
6. The customary efforts were made to secure leave of ab-
sence for employes of City and Federal Departments during
the high holidays, and to secure changes in examination dates
on the Sabbath and holidays.
Eespectfully submitted,
J. L. Magnes,
Chairman, Executive Committee.

REPORT OP THE JEWISH COMMUNITY OF
PHILADELPHIA
TO THE MEMBERS OF THE AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE I
Gentlemen :
The following is a summary of the work of the Jewish Com-
munity of Philadelphia during the year 1914-1915:
The Community is at present composed of 117 organizations.
The fifth annual meeting was held on Sunday, November 21,
1915, and a report of the work of the Council was presented,
of which the following is an abstract :
The Council provided the means for religious and moral
instruction of persons of the Jewish faith in the Eastern
Penitentiary. Forty-eight Jewish prisoners have assembled in
a chapel every Sabbath morning where divine services are
conducted.
The Jewish Educational Board, of which Ephraim Lederer,
Esq., is Chairman, took an interest in the promotion of Vaca-
tion Schools, and through one of its members, Dr. Greenstone,
an active part in the eifort to federate the Talmud Torahs.
This Board, if it is to do actual work in co-ordinating the
Jewish educational system of Philadelphia, will require funds
foT the purpose, and owing to the prevailing distress in the city
and the urgent need for collecting funds for the sufferers in
the war zone, the past year was not deemed an appropriate one
for soliciting donations for this purpose.
The Board for the Supervision of Kashrut has done nothing
since the last meeting, as they have no funds at their disposal.
The rabbinical authorities at present in command of the situ-
ation are unwilling to do anything until they are guaranteed

the continiiance of emoluments not less than those now re-
ceived.
The Committee on Conciliation and Arbitration succeeded
in effecting an agreement in connection with a controversy in
the Downtown Hebrew Day Nursery, which had already gone
to the courts.
The Community joined with other bodies and persons in
organizing the Philadelphia Branch of the American Jewish
Relief Committee for Sufferers from the War.
Improper discrimination in Pennsylvania on account of
race or creed and advertisements to this effect were brought to
the attention of the Governors of Pennsylvania in the hope
that a law, which protects the civil rights of all of the citizens
and inhabitants of Pennsylvania, irrespective of race, color or
creed, be passed and receive executive sanction, a previous bill
to this effect having been vetoed by the Governor upon techni-
cal grounds.
A protest was registered against ''Hebrew Leagues ^^ and
'' Organizations of Jewish Voters,'^ and claims that " Jews
were entitled ^^ to a certain amount of representation, which
were made during the recent political campaign and which are
still being made. The Commimity is absolutely opposed to any
such claims or to the recognition of any such societies or clubs,
as it was felt that there is no ground upon which a man is
entitled to the suffrage of his fellow-citizens except upon that
of his fitness for the office for which he is a candidate and his
capacity adequately to represent all the people in the* city, the
ward, or the division which he undertakes to represent.
The quota of Philadelphia in the American Jewish Com-
mittee was contributed through the Community.

REPOET OP THE
BUREAU OF STATISTICS AND RESEARCH
TO THE CHAIRMAN OF THB BXEOUTIVB OOMMITTEB OP THE
AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE :
Dear Sir :
I am directed by the Committee of the Bureau of Jewish
Statistics to forward the Annual Report submitted to and
approved by them. As a suggestion of Mr. Louis Marshall,
there has been appended to this report copy of the Memoir on
State Aid to Jewish Philanthropic Institutions of New York
State, prepared for him, as Delegate-at-Large to the recent
Constitutional Convention, by the Bureau.
Yours faithfully,

ANNUAL REPORT OF THB BUREAU OF JEWISH STATISTICS
TO THE COMMITTEE OF THE BUREAU :
I beg to submit the report of the second year's work of the
Bureau of Jewish Statistics and Research of the American
Jewish Committee. The work of the Bureau is now organized,
and it has been fortunate enough during the past year to give
proofs of its usefulness in various directions. Its work is, as
previously pointed out, of a double character: to collect sta-
tistical and other material relating to the Jews of America
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 365
scattered in various publications, and to add to these materials
by original research in definite directions. In both directions
the Bureau has done good work in the past year.
With regard to original research, the Bureau has been able
to complete five different investigations, adding in their way to
our knowledge of Jewish sociological conditions. The col-
lection of materials relating to Jewish immigration for the
past thirty-five years has now been completed, and we have in
the ofiice by far the fullest collection of statistics on this sub-
ject ever brought together, supplementing the printed material
of Hirsch, Kaplun-Kogan, Joseph and the Immigration Com-
mission in various directions, while their figures have in every
available case been brought up to date.
The Bureau has also had an opportunity of investigating a
type institution with gratifying results. At the request of the
Executive Committee of the Jewish Big Brother Association,
the workings of that body were subjected to a critical inquiry
with a view to suggesting improvements as to working as well
as to checking the work by proper statistical methods. A
memoir was prepared by the Director making various sug-
gestions which it is understood. have been mostly adopted by
the directors of the movement. In making this research much
help was received from Mr. Kaminsky and Mr. Drachsler,
ofiBcials connected with the institution, as well as from Mr.
Roland C. Sheldon, the Secretary of the Protestant Big
Brother Association.
An opportunity was afforded the Bureau to test its capa-
bilities of coping with a specific problem within a fixed time.
It was understood that the question of refusing further State
aid to charitable institutions was to be raised at the Consti-
tutional Convention of New York State, and at the request
366 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
of Mr. Louis Marshall^ one of the Delegates-at-Large to that
Convention, the Bureau undertook to ascertain the relative
share of supporting Jewish charitable institutions made by
the State and by the Jewish public. Elaborate questionnaires
were sent to three hundred and four Jewish institutions of the
State, and within three weeks of the request being received at
the oflBce of the Bureau a preliminary report was placed in
the hands of Mr. Marshall. Final form of the memoir on
the subject is appended to the present report. Already the
research has been utilized by gentlemen interested in the
progress of Jewish philanthropy in New York City, and the
Bureau staff prepared during the summer elaborate tables
derived from it for the use of several gentlemen interested in
Jewish philanthropy in New York.
A similar investigation of a wider and, indeed, national
scope was undertaken with regard to the spread of the feder-
ation movement in American Jewish philanthropy, on which
an elaborate memoir was prepared and printed in the Ameri-
can Jewish Year Book for 5676, pages 159-198. In view of
the wide spread of the movement a number of separate copies
of this report have been printed for use by communities which
may be thinking of adopting this method of increasing the
eflBciency of their philanthropic institutions.
More recently the Bureau, at the request of various gentle-
men interested in the possibility of federation of New York
Jewish charities, has been investigating the relative amounts
given in donations and membership dues to the chief Jewish
charitable institutions of Manhattan.
Apart from these major investigations and memoirs, minor
inquiries have been made into the number of Jews in the Army,
Navy and National Guard, into Jewish burials and marriages
REPORT OP AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 367
in New York City during the past fifteen years, into the num-
of Jews distinguished in the various lines of life, into the num-
ber of Jews engaged in the present European war, and into
the proportion of Jewish criminality. A fairly complete
bibliography of the available materials for the study of Ameri-
can Jewish statistics has been compiled, so that at a moment's
notice the information already in print can be rendered
available.
It has now become part of the duty of the Bureau to under-
take the publication of the American Jewish Year Book, which
appeared duly on time for the Jewish New Year 5676, and
contains besides the usual information about the national
organizations and events of the year, two memoirs, one by
Miss Henrietta Szold on " Recent Jewish Progress in Pales-
tine,^^ and the other the above-mentioned memoir by the
Director on " The Federation Movement in American Jewish
Philanthropy.'^
As the Bureau has become better known, its services for indi-
vidual inquiries are being utilized to an increasing extent.
Considerable additions have been made to the library, a few
by purchase, but mainly by presentation; it now includes
352 books and 592 pamphlets.
The experience of the past year has been sufficient to indicate
that the Bureau of Jewish Statistics is now in a position to
investigate the sociological problems of the Jews of the United
States, for which purpose it was founded.
Respectfully submitted,
(Signed) Joseph Jacobs,
Director.

EEPORT OP THE
BUREAU OF STATISTICS AND RESEARCH
APPENDIX
New York, May 1, 1915.
LOUIS MARSHALL, ESQ., MEMBER OP CONSTITUTIONAL CONVEN-
TION, ALBANY, NEW YORK.
Sir:
In accordance with your request, the Bureau of Jewish
Statistics has made an enquete into the amount contributed by
the Jews of New York State to their charitable institutions,
and of the amount contributed to their support by New York
State and by the several cities thereof.
New York Charitable Institutions and State Aid
The following is an estimate of the amount contributed by
the Jews of New York State to their charitable institutions,
and of the amounts contributed to their support by New York
State and by the several cities of the State. Tha figures refer
to the year 1914. The investigation dealt with the following
classes of institutions :
Institutions for the Sick.
Institutions for Children.
Institutions for Defectives and Delinquents.
Educational and Social Institutions.
Institutions for General Relief.
Miscellaneous Institutions:
Homes for the Aged.
Free Burial Societies.
Free Loan Societies.
Immigrant Societies.
Vacation Societies.
Council of Jewish Women.
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 369
The list of institutions was compiled from the Communal
Directory issued by the Jewish Community in 1912, with sup-
plementary information from the American Jewish Year
Books of the intervening years. From the last source, infor-
mation was gained as to the up-state Jewish institutions, and in
addition letters were sent to the mayors of the cities in the
State having over 1,000 Jewish inhabitants. An elaborate ques-
tionnaire, of which a copy is appended (Exhibit A), was issued
to 304 institutions, a list of which is given in ^Exhibit B.
Follow-up letters were sent to those institutions which failed
to reply to the first inquiry, and in all answers were received
from 114 institutions, besides 22 which could not be reached
by post.
It should be remarked that in a few instances, like the
Baron de Hirsch Fund and the New York Foundation, the
expenditures (outside of office expenses) have not been counted
in the general summaries, inasmuch as these institutions
mainly perform their functions by subventions to other insti-
tutions, in whose budgets these sums naturally appear. To
have included the disbursements of the larger institutions
would have been to reckon the subventions twice over. The
sum of nearly $50,000 expended by the Industrial Removal
OflBce is also not included, as this institution obtains its funds
from the Jewish Colonization Association of Paris, outside
of New York State.
SUMMAKY OP InQUIEY
It appears from the returns thus made that the 86 New York
City institutions receive annually $3,969,719, divided as fol-
lows: (It will be observed that New York City contributed
$843,733 out of a total of $3,969,719, or 21%.)

Total Income $3,969,719
The 28 up-state institutions have an income of $56,587,
towards which the State contributed $3,666, or 6%. Letters
were written to the mayors of all the up-state cities having
more than 1,000 Jewish inhabitants inquiring into the munici-
pal aid given by these cities to Jewish institutions, and these
subventions so far as given have been included.
These results, it should be observed, are derived from only
114 institutions out of 304 to which questionnaires were sent.
It is true that the institutions which have answered include all
those of any consequence, and it is doubtful whether any insti-
tutions have been omitted whose income is more than $5,000
per annum. Yet the contributions of the large number from
which no returns have been received must reach considerable
dimensions, and would at least add half a million to the sum
total of the contributions of the Jews to their own charities in
New York State. On the other hand, none of the institutions

income totals.
REPORT OP AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 371
marked with an asterisk in Exhibit B receive State or munici-
pal aid, since all such organizations are recorded in the annual
report of the State Board of Charities, so that it is certain
that no contributions of the State have been omitted. If we add
this minimum of $500,000 to the previous results, we get as a
rough estimate at least $3,678,907 contributed by Jews, as
against $847,399 contributed by the State.
Previous Investigations
Similar inquiries have been made on previous occasions, in
connection with the Heinsheimer Foundation, with a more re-
stricted number of institutions, and it may be of interest to
compare the returns of our investigation with those thus
reached. Thus, in 1900, 22 Jewish institutions of New York
City had an expenditure of $1,674,340 towards which the City
contributed $211,577, or 12%. In 1908, 45 Jewish institu-
tions spent $2,466,671 towards which the State contributed
$501,559, or 20%. Taking the same institutions for the past
year, it is of interest to observe how largely the private
Jewish contributions have increased without any corresponding
increase of State aid. The returns may be expressed in the
form of the following table :
COMPARATIVE INCOME AND STATE AID
1900 1908 1914
22 Institutions (1900)
Income $1,000,000 $1,951,000 $2,744,727

♦45 Institutions (1908) 2,192,000 3,205,825
State Aid 501,579 678,378
* A few unimportant institutions have gone out of existence
since 1908 or could not be reached, but their absence would affect
the results but slightly.
372 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
Of the 22, it will be observed that the income has increased
between 1900 and 1914 by $1,7'44,7'27; or 174%, whereas the
State aid only advanced $361,062, or 107%. The larger num-
ber of 45 institutions in 1908 increased their income in 1914
by $1,033,826, or 47%, whereas the State aid only increased
$176,819, or 36%.
Analysis of Institutions
The contributions of City and State vary considerably
according to the classes of institutions concerned. If we
analyze those from which results were obtained, it will be seen
that the State and municipalities after all contribute only to
Hospitals and Institutions for the Sick, (b) Orphan Asylums,
and (c) Institutions for Defectives and Delinquents. The
foUovring table gives the respective income and State aid for

these different classes, for the year 1908 applying to 45, and
for last year applying to 86 institutions. It vnll be observed
that the State practically confines its aid to three classes, (a)
the support of those institutions whose inmates are universally
regarded as the natural wards of the State, viz., orphans, and
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 373
those incapacitated by natural defects or by mental or physical
illness. If all denominational aid were removed from these
classes, the State would be required to bear the entire burden
of providing for those dependents. In these classes it is rather
a case of the various denominations coming to the aid of the
State than of the State coming to the aid of the denominations.
It would have been useful to find the number of persons who
in addition to carrying on these benevolent undertakings at the
same time earn a living for themselves by such work, as their
number probably reaches into the thousands. Besides these, a
large number of persons give their services voluntarily towards
this object, including 1,988 directors. So far as the State aids
these institutions to continue their work, it helps towards call-
ing into activity and continuing these gratuitous services on
behalf of the citizens of New York State.
Comparative Expenditure
The Jews of New York State, it is probable, do their share in
helping the necessitous, diseased and deficient classes as much
as their neighbors. It is diflBcult to make any comparison of
this kind, as denominational statistics have not hitherto been
encouraged, but the Associates of Private Charities have com-
piled the following comparison on the cost of care and mainte-
nance in the private hospitals of New York City for 1913 :
Average per capita in all Hospitals $2.08
Average per capita in Catholic Hospitals 1.16*
Average per capita in Protestant Hospitals 2.34
Average per capita in Jewish Hospitals 2.75
From this it will be seen that in hospitals, at any rate, the
Jews are as generous as their neighbors in the care of their
* Cost of nursing by religions not included.
374 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
sick, who, it must be remembered, are of all creeds and colors.
Some of the extra cost per head probably is due to the necessity
of having meat specially prepared for Jewish patients.
Additional Contributions
It must be remembered that the above estimate of expendi-
ture refers only to one year. Our list by no means indicates the
total spent by the Jewish population of New York for charit-
able purposes. An attempt was made to get an estimate from
the various institutions of the amount spent on their build-
ings, plants, etc., but this would have involved so much and
such long investigation that it was impossible to get any reli-
able results. Some approximation, however, can be obtained
by the valuations placed upon these institutions by the City
when exempting them from taxation, as is done in most cases.
These valuations, as applied to New York City, amount to
$12,144,181, divided among various classes as follows: (The
amount of reserve fund has also been added, since this likewise
implies additional expenditure beyond that included in the
yearly outlay.)
Institutions Valuation Reserve Fund
Institutions for Sick $5,678,020 $1,526,250
Institutions for Children... 3,083,299 845,390
Institutions for Defectives
and Delinquents 1,262,500 136,454
Educational Institutions 1,407,262 1,455,336
All other 713,100 809,027
Total $12,144,181 $4,825,071
It is, of course, impossible to determine from valuation and
reserve fund how much on an average the Jews of New York
REPORT OF AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE 375
have contributed annually in this way to their charities, in
addition to the contributions already calculated, but it is obvi-
ous that if these sums had not been contributed the donors
would have been able to enjoy the interest, say at 5%. From
this, therefore, it seems fair to add this percentage to the annual
contributions, which would amount to $848,462, from which,
however, should be subtracted $189,606 interest and rent
already counted in, making the net addition $658,956, and
thus raising the total amount to $5,318,181, towards which the
State contributed $847,399, or 15%.
To sum up, it is obvious from the above figures that it would
cost New York State several additional millions of dollars if
the Jewish inhabitants did not practically provide for their
own poor and disburse at least 85% of the sums needed for
this purpose. It is probable that if the State took over only
those institutions which it already recognizes as within its
proper sphere of activity, the beneficiaries would not be so well
treated as at present. We have seen above that a larger expendi-
ture is made per capita in the Jewish hospitals than in the State
institutions. The same probably applies to the orphan asylums
and institutions for defectives. Again, the assessed value of the
plants of the various institutions of the State reaches over
$12,000,000, a sum which would have been for the most part
paid by the State if it had previously taken oyer these institu-
tions. Quite apart from the material assistance thus rendered
to the State, the willing and gratuitous services of the directors
and associate workers could not be replaced by State adminis-
tration, nor could any pecimiary expenditure by the State
procure the same amount of zeal and experience.
It remains only to give thanks to the various secretaries of
the institutions who have taken much trouble in answering the
376 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
rather elaborate questionnaire sent to them, as well as to the
Associates of Private Charities, Dr. Waldman of the United
Hebrew Charities, the Directors of the N. Y. Foundation (for
permission to use the Heinsheimer papers), and to Dr. H. G.
Friedman for valuable criticism and corrections.

PRESIDENTS ADDRESS
Ladies and Oentlemen:
The Board of Trustees bids you welcome to the twenty-eighth annual
meeting of the Society.
The Report of the Trustees, which is before you, is not only a statement
of the work done, but is an earnest of what is to be accomplished.
Our membership is larger than ever before. We have enrolled over four
thousand five hundred (4500) new members, more members having been
secured this year than in any previous year. In fact, the total of new
memberships secured practically equals the total membership of the Society
about twelve years ago. We now have a membership of nearly fourteen
thousand (14,000), a net increase of two thousand (2000) over last year.
The Society has sold more books, and has taken in more money than in
any previous year.
Several days ago we sent out an appeal to all of our Annual Members,
urging them to Increase their subscriptions. A number have answered the
appeal. The Society feels that Judaism can best be served by a very exten-
sive distribution of its books, but to accomplish this, the Society must have
money. The cost of paper, printing, binding, and distribution has risen
considerably since the Society was organized, and a larger Income is
imperative if we are to do our work effectively. The Trustees feel that the
nominal annual dues of three dollars ought not to be raised, because we
want to be a popular society and enable the masses, who cannot afford to
pay more, to remain members of the Society. Still, there must be thou-
sands of our members who can and ought to pay more than three dollars a
year, and, we hope, that as soon as we have made our position clear to
them, they will respond.
We have this year distributed about fifty thousand volumes. We have
reprinted a number of our older publications. We have published three new
books, and the fourth is about to be issued. " The Power of Purim and
Other I'lays," by Irma Kraft, consisting of plays suitable for presentation
by Sabbath School children, was very favorably received in school circles
and Jewish homes.
The seventeenth issue of the American Jewish Year Book was published
in September, 1915, and contained an exceptionally important article on
" Recent Jewish Progress in Palestine," which was really a book in itself.
Miss Henrietta Szold, the author of the article, has rendered Judaism a
great service in presenting, at this time, such an Important r^sum^ of the
subject. The Year Book also contained, in addition to the usual features,
a valuable article by the late Dr. Joseph Jacobs on the " Federation Move-
ment in American Jewish Philanthropy." The third book of the year,
'* The Jews Among the Greeks and Romans," from the pen of Dr. Max
Radin, proved to be a work of great merit and a distinct contribution to the
subject. Dr. Radin went to first sources for his information, and, writing
in a style that has been commented upon favorably, he traced the various
phases of Jewish life and thought in the classical world.
The next book, to appear shortly, is the first volume of the " His-
tory of the Jews in Russia and Poland From the Earliest Times Until
the Present Day,", from the Russian of S. M. Dubnow, the author of the
philosophic essay on Jewish History published by the Society some years
ago. This work, written for the Society, will be a most valuable con-
tribution to our knowledge of a subject of the utmost importance to us,

both on account of the place the East European Jews hold in the history
and literature of our people, and on account of their checkered fortunes in
the immediate past and their sad plight at the present time. The Society
was fortunate enough to secure for the work: of translation the services of
Professor Israel Friedlaender. The second volume of this history will
appear during the fiscal year 1916-1917.
Two other books are now passing through the press : a volume of poems
by Mr. P. M. Raskig, and a book of stories by Dr. A. S. Isaacs, entitled
" Under the Sabbath Lamp : Stories of Our Time for Old and Young."
Of the books that have passed beyond the initial stage of being projected,
and have reached various stages of completion, three deserve special men-
tion :
Two of them, bearing on outlying sections of Jewry, whose histories were
hitherto sealed books, will be related by Jewish travellers and investigators
able to speak from first-hand knowledge. The French original of the book
on the Jews of Northern Africa by Doctor Nahum Slousch, whose volume
on the " Renascence of Hebrew Literature " will be recalled with pleasure,
is in the hands of the translator, Miss Amy E. Schechter. Doctor Slousch
has made several Journeys through Morocco, Libya, and Tunis, and pene-
trated the edge of the great Sahara Desert. In the course of his travels he
made valuable discoveries, adding vastly to our knowledge of the history
and customs of a region which was once densely populated by active com-
munities of Jews, and which is still the abode of no inconsiderable number
of our race. Dr. Slouscb's book will be copiously illustrated by photographs
taken by him on his wanderings.
The other book of similar interest is that to be written for the Society
by Doctor Jacques Faitlovitch, on the romantic history of the Falashas,
the Jews of Abyssinia. Dr. Faitlovitch qualified himself to become the
writer of this book by his several sojourns and numerous investigations in
Abyssinia.
The third work of especial Interest is the volume to be entitled ** Post-
Biblical Hebrew Literature : An Anthology," selected from works written
since the close of the biblical Canon, compiled by Doctor B. Halper, of the
Dropsie College, who has also translated into English the texts that are to
constitute the volume. The book should have great pedagogic value. It will
be the first time the Society attempts the publication of Hebrew texts. The
Society will endeavor to overcome the technical difficulties of having the
Hebrew portion set up in attractive, readable type.
The Publication Committee has given a large portion of Its time to the
devefopment of the various series that have been projected by the Society.
Five such series are now under way : The Movement Series, the Biographical
Series, the Historical Jewish Communities Series, and two new series, the
Books about the Bible, and the Loeb Fund Series.
In the Movement Series, in which Doctor Richard Gottheil's book on
Zionism was the first to appear, a second volume is now nearly ready for
the press, that on Hellenism, by Mr. Norman Bentwich. Of the other four
volumes projected, Doctor Husik is at work on the one on Rationalism, the
Rev. Dr. Joseph H. Hertz, Chief Rabbi of England, has undertaken to write
the volume on Mysticism, and the Rev. Dr. S. Schulman is preparing the
volume on Reform Judaism.
Five writers are engaged upon the Biographical Series. If the blight of
war had not fallen upon us, we might by this time have had in press Dr.
Elbogen's book on *' Hillel and His House," as well as the illustrated
volume on Jewish artists, by Dr. Herman Struck and Mr. Leo Mielslner. In
418 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
addition to those, we shall soon have a biography of Don Isaac Abarbanel,
by Doctor Abraham A. Neuman, and that of Sir Moses Monteflore, by Paul
Goodman.
In the Historical Jewish Communities Series, four towns have been
assigned to writers : Amsterdam to Mr. Siegmund Seeligman, of Amsterdam ;
Cairo to Doctor S. Poznanski, of Warsaw ; Frankfort-on-the-Main, to Mr. A.
Freiman, of Frankfort ; and Rome to Doctor Hermann Yogelstein, of K5nlgs-
burg. Among the additional volumes projected, but snot yet assigned to
writers, are those on Cologne, Lemberg, Cracow, Wilna, and London.
The new series of Books about the Bible is designed to give our readers
an adequate notion of some of the multifarious aspects of the Book of Booka.
Thus far only one volume has been completely projected, that on the
*' Translations of the Bible," which will be treated by the able pen of Doctor
Mlax L. Margolis. At any time a book on this subject, which carries with it
a demonstration of the place the Bible occupies in the literature of all
nations, would be of surpassing interests. At the present moment, when
we expect very soon to have our own English translation of the Bible in
completed form for distribution among our members, it has a peculiarly
heightened timely interest.
The other new series is the Loeb Fund Series, to be issued under the
terms of the bequest made to the Society by the late Morris Lioeb, which
provides that the income derived from it " shall from time to time be
utilized for and applied to the preparation and publication of a scholarly
work devoted to the interests of Judaism." Dr. Henry Malter's investiga-
tions into the life and literary activity of Saadia, have produced a book
which, in the opinion of those qualified to Judge, says the last word on the
numerous moot questions connected with the great Gaon. This has been
designated as the first number of the Loeb Fund Series.
In planning and developing the various series of books, the Publication
Committee has succeeded in many instances in stimulating a considerable
body of scholars and writers to devote themselves to the production of books
which otherwise they might never have thought of undertaking. With a
similar end in view, a prize of two hundred and fifty dollars was offered dur-
ing the past year for the manuscript of the best story on American Jewish
life. Nineteen manuscripts are entered in the competition. They are now
in the hands of the Judges, whose verdict cannot be anticipated or divined.
In one other department of the Society's work the Committee has made
a fruitful recommendation which was acted on favorably by the Board of
Trustees. The Society considers it one of its legitimate functions to aid
the publication of works by other agencies which for one reason or another
it cannot undertake itself. It has accordingly made arrangements with the
Macmillan Company to publish Jointly Dr. Husik's book on Medieval Jewish
Philosophy.
Our Joy in the knowledge that the Society is bringing the best produc-
tions of Jewish literature into the homes of the Jews is on this occasion
marred by the tragic fact that two of our greatest laborers in the field of
.Jewish literature have passed away from our midst, the Gaon, Professor
Solomon Schechter, and the versatile literary genius, Doctor Joseph Jacobs.
The Trustees and Publication Committee of the Society have adopted the
following minutes, expressing their sense of grief in the loss we have sus-
tained :
" In common with all American Israel, The Jewish Publication Society
of America, as represented by its Trustees and by the Publication Committee
of the Society, mourns the sudden and irreparable loss of
8
JEWISH PUBLICATION SOCIETY 419
SOLOMON SCHECHTER,
some of whose works were published by the Society, and who gave invalua-
ble service to its f*ublication Committee for a period of fourteen years.
*' The broad humanity of his outlook, his intense love for Jews and
Judaism, his unique capacity for seeing the soul in the written page and
for depicting it in his idiomatic and incisive English made the two volumes
of his " Studies in Judaism '* a striking contribution to the world's litera-
ture and to the history of religion. His wide and intensive learning, his
literary taste and accomplishments, his statesmanlike view of the educa-
tional and spiritual requirements of the Jewish people in America gave to
his co-operation on the Publication Committee an importance not to be esti-
mated. Several projects now in hand were suggested by him, notably the
series of Jewish commentaries on the separate books of the Bible — a book
which he had much at heart. He was a member of the Bible Translation
Committee which had just concluded its labors a fortnight before his death.
He was chairman of the Committee on Jewish Classics. His advice and
assistance were ever at the service of authors, and many publications of the
Society have thus profited by his wise criticism and constructive suggestions.
In these, among many ways, Solomon Schechter contributed to the advance-
ment of Jewish learning and idealism in this country and his colleagues of
the Publication Committee and the members of the Board of Trustees mourn
the genial friend as well as the world-renowned scholar."
"The Board of Trustees and the Publication Committee of The Jewish
Publication Society of America have learned with profound sorrow of the
death on January 31, 1916, of
JOSEPH JACOBS,
for twelve years a member of the Publication Committee of this Society and
a member of the Board of Editors of the Bible Translation, and they here
place upon record an expression of their sense of loss in the passing away
of their distinguished colleague.
** Doctor Jacobs made distinguished contributions to Jewish history, was
the founder of the science of Jewish statistics, revising editor of the
Jewish Encyclopedia, famed as an anthropologist, folk-lorlst, critic and
essayist. His broadly cultivated mind and his energies were always at
the disposal of this Society, and to its work he gave faithful and unremitting
attention. He possessed a happy temperament, a generous nature and
chivalrous soul, and his absence from our midst is a source of grief and a
serious loss."
The Trustees announce with regret the resignation of Miss Henrietta
Szold as Secretary of the Publication Committee. Miss Szold's contribu-
tions to the work of the Society are well known throughout Jewish literary
circles. The Board has made certain that we will have the benefit of her
co-operation, and have appointed her to membership on the Publication
Committee. We have made two other noteworthy additions to our Publi-
cation Committee — Professor Alexander Marx, of The Jewish Theological
Seminary of America, and Professor Max L. Margolis, of the Dropsie
College.
We are fortunate in having in our midst a scholar who Is qualified to take
up the work which Miss Szold hitherto performed. Doctor B. Halper, of
Philadelphia, has, at the earnest solicitation of the officers of the Society,
9
420 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
agreed to assume the duties of editor of the Society's publications. In this
connection, a word of praise might fittingly be expressed in appreciation of
the services of the distinguished gentlemen of the Publication Committee,
and of its illustrious Chairman. From the reports presented, the books
published, and the projects planned, you are all familiar with their work.
The Committee, as it is constituted, consists not only of a body of scholars,
but each one is an expert in his department. Questions of intricacies of
Hebrew, Aramaic, or Arabic literature, information regarding history,
education, linguistic niceties, the subtle mysteries of statecraft, of things
mechanical, scientific, and even commercial, biblical lore, folk-lore, codes,
Jewish life and manners are regularly discussed by these volunteers coming
from difTerent parts of the country to the regular monthly meetings held
at the offices of the Society. The Committee finds its reward in the work
it is doing ; nevertheless, English-speaking Israel may well be grateful for
their tireless efforts in behalf of Judaism and its literature.
Optimism of a rare kind brought the Society into being and urged Its
progress, and a similar optimism has led the Society into making forecasts
as to the exact date when the Bible will appear. However, we are now
in a position to state that by Rosh ha-Shanah, that is to say, in a few
months, the New Translation of the Bible, the greatest enterprise yet con-
ceived by the Society, will be in the hands of the public The Board of
Editors of the Bible Translation met finally on October 27, 1915, in New
York, to consider some two hundred and seventy-five propositions which
had been left in abeyance, out of a total of some four thousand new proposi-
tions which had been made on the proofs by the editors, and which had
previously been disposed of by votes taken by correspondence. This meet-
ing was attended by all the members of the Board, and we had the good
fortune of being able to preserve in photographic form a remembrance of the
occasion. Thus, it was granted to us to have the entire Board as first con-
stituted sit through all the sessions until the very completion of the work.
On November 16, 1915, Professor Max L. Margolis, Secretary of the Board
of Bible Editors, announced finally that the Editors of the Bible Translation
have completed all the proof reading, and that the preface was being pre-
pared by a special committee.
In order to make certain that the work of the Board of Editors would be
carefully and accurately published, the Board of Editors adopted the fol-
lowing resolution which was concurred in by the Board of Trustees :
" That the printer be asked to furnish a second galley-proof ; that galley-
proof II be then collated with galley-proof I ; that first page-proof be com-
pared with galley II, and then by two persons with the Hebrew ; that page-
proof II be compared with page-proof I, and then read by a professional
proof-reader ; that plate-proof be compared with page-proof II, then read by
a professional proof-reader, then once more compared by two persons with
the Hebrew."
As an indication of how carefully the Society is doing this work, we might
add that, instead of one professional proof-reader, we are using three. Thus,
the delay in issuing the volume will be more than compensated by a perfect
production.
The next great enterprise of the Society, the Jewish Classic Series, is
assuming definite shape, so that the Publication Committee will be free to
turn its attention to the largest project of all, the Commentaries on the
Bible, which has reached only the preliminary state of discussion, but for
which funds are already waiting.

Mr. Jacob H. Schiff, of New York, was then introduced by the

ing address:
ADDRESS OF MR. JACOB H. SCHIFF
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
I thank you for your kind invitation at this time to appear before the
members of the Jewish Publication Society, for I assure you It is one of the
societies in which I am very deeply Interested.
This, I believe, is the city where, as it has been claimed recently, Jews
have become degraded, because they have declined to flock to the banner of
the agitators who are endeavoring to corral the Jews of the United States
Into one compact political body, and who, under the plea that the leaders
among the Jewish people must henceforth be named by a congjress, elected
upon a democratic basis, have evidently no other purpose than to grasp
power and to bring Jewish destiny under the control of a handful of men
whose interest in true Judaism is not very far-reaching, and who are Jews
only for questionable nationalistic machinations.
Well have you done, my friends of the Philadelphia Jewish community,
not to have listened to the siren song by which it was sought to bring you
down from the high plane that Philadelphia Jews have occupied ever since
the American people became established as a nation.
I need not go back to the days of Hyam Solomon, the Franks, the Gratzs,
and of the many other Illustrious Philadelphia Jews, whose names are
recorded as no mean part of the history of the nation, as made in the
glorious days of the War of Independence. I prefer to speak of the more
modern times which have brought forth the men whom we are proud to call
our contemporaries, and who have done so much to make Philadelphia the
rock upon the foundation of which has been built American Jewish life,
both in its conservative and more liberal aspects, free from the cant and
danser which in our days unfortunately tend to undermine true Judaism.
It would be out of place if I spoke here of your many local Jewish
altruistic Institutions, though In many respects these have become a model
for philanthropic work of our co-religionists throughout the country. I
prefer to limit myself to-night, as I properly should, to make passing refer-
ence to the important Jewish cultural institutions, more or less national
In their aspects, to which Philadelphia has given birth, the Hebrew
Education Society, Gratz College, Dropsie College, and the Jewish Publica-
tion Society, the annual meeting of the latter of which brings us here
to-night.
13
424 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK
I well remember the days, more than a quarter of a century ago, in the
late eighties, when the Publication Society was established. I remember
the struggles of its founders and earlier directors to sufficiently stimulate
the interest of American Jews so as to enable the Society to carry out the
purposes for which it had been called into existence. I remember the days
when, more than two decades ago, the first efforts were made to publish an
English version of the Bible under the Society's auspices, which received
such scant encouragement that the project, if not entirely abandoned, had
to lay dormant for many years. You, energetic and good men of the
Publication Society, maintained, however, your courage, and the great
project, though dormant, was not permitted to die, until, in recent years,
with the self-sacrificing co-operation of great Jewish scholars, whom you
succeeded In uniting for the carrying out of the Bible translation, you have
accomplished the great task you had undertaken, and are about to present
to the world, and to the American people in particular, the Bible of the
Jew in pure and modern English, by which earlier versions are to some ex-
tent characterized.
You have also made, in co-operation with great Jewish scholars, sub-
stantial and considerable progress in the reproduction in modern English
of the "" Jewish Classics," a series which I feel assured will upon its publi-
cation become epoch-making, unlocking, as it Is destined to do, a treasure-
house of knowledge and wisdom — the key to which has until now been
possessed only by the select — to the multitude, both of our own people and
the Gentile world.
I shall not here endeavor to speak in detail of the other achievements of
your Society in supplying, through its many publications, the American
Jewish people with well-selected literature produced by our people, both in
earlier and in modern times. Suffice it to say that if the Society had done
no more than to produce and distribute Graetz's History of the Jews, the
Bible about to be published, the " Jewish Classics," which will make their
appearance before long, those who have earlier guided and those who are
now guiding the destinies of the Jewish Publication Society would have
deserved the lasting gratitude of this and coming Jewish generations, for
they are the men through whose untiring labor the love of the Jew In
America, at least of the English-speaking and reading Jew, for the history,
folk-lore, and literature of his people has been reawakened, and is being
kept alive.
More than ever is it important in these times that the Jewish Publica-
tion Society be strengthened and maintained in undiminished activity, and
that its managers be enabled not only to continue, but to extend and in-
crease its work in many directions.
Conditions in Eastern countries have brought to our shores during past
decades great numbers of our co-religionists speaking a jargon of their
own to which they are tenaciously clinging. With the termination of the
terrible conflict now raging in Europe, and which God give may come soon,
it is not unlikely that very considerable numbers of our hard-driven co-
religionists in the war zones will have to seek happier homes within our
borders. The coming of these brethren imposes the duty upon us, who call
ourselves American Jews, to make every opportunity for these, our people,
and in particular for their offspring, so that they may become acquainted
with, and Initiated into, the language and the ways of our country. Yid-
dish is not a modern language, if a real language at all, and can have no
future in America. It is true, the older generation of immigrants have
14
JEWISH PUBLICATION SOCIETY 425
been brought up in It, and have spoken it in the countries they have
emigrated from, but the childern of these immigrants, who are either born
here or come here at a tender age, and who go to the public schools, will
not find Yiddish sympathetic ; they will avoid speaking it and reading it,
even if they hear it in their homes, and this second generation will adopt
the language of the public schools and of their comrades. To this posterity
of the immigrant from Eastern lands, the Jewish Publication Society need
give its particular attention in the program its managers map out for it
hereafter. Upon these younger people it must sfeek to get a hold through
its publications, so that, notwithstanding the materialism which in this
country so readily engulfs youths, these young people may have opportuni-
ties to continue to study and read in modern garb the wonderful and
grand literature which has been produced by Jewish sages and writers
during all ages, and which has ever been, and should continue to be, the
backbone of our people, if we are to maintain the proud and significant
title the world has willingly given us, that of " The People of the Book."
You men who are guiding the Jewish Publication Society with such
thorough understanding, you men who are leaders in Israel, whom we seek
and honor, I feel assured will be equal to the demands modern Israel will
make upon your Society in the future, as you have so well understood to
successfully perform it in the years that are behind us. God bless your
work, and give you the strength you will need in its fulfillment.
On motion of Mr. Bphraim Lederer, of Philadelphia, the meet-
ing unanimously expressed its sincere regret at Miss Henrietta
Szold's resignation as Secretary to the Publication Committee, and
at the same time the meeting placed on record its high appreciation
of the great service Miss Szold has rendered to the Society since
its formation.
On motion, the meeting adjourned.
I. George Dobsevage,
Secretary.

The features one considers in
placing an order for printing
Quality - Service - Price
Quality: By that is meant suitable designing,
engravings that faithfully reproduce, judgment
in typographical style, accurate proofreading,
type and illustrations well printed in harmoni-
zing colors on adequate paper, and careful
binding. Such is the Trow conception.
Service: Of what does it consist at The
Trow Press? Ideas, suggestions, conception,
promptness in production and the absence to
the customer of annoyances in the handling.
Price: The Trow Press is not always the
lowest in price, but one gets one hundred cents*
worth for his dollar — sometimes lower, some-
times higher, but on the average a little lower
than elsewhere for an equivalent quality and
service.
