IS THE JEW VICTORIOUS?
(Continued from page 5)
The spirit is not yet dead.
Mendoza, the great prizefighter; Miz-
ler, the amateur lightweight champion
of England, who represented this country
in.the Olympic Games; Kid Berg; Rainer,
who captained Austria against England
at Soccer; Fraulein Mayer, the champion
woman fencer; Prenn, the tennis cham
pion of the same country and a Wimble
don star; Abrahams, the great English
sprinter, and so on.
From among the seventeen Jews who
have won the Nobel Prize, one picks out
Albert Einstein; Fritz Haber, who re
deemed the human race from virtual
starvation by fixing nitrogen from the
air; and Paul Ehrlich, of medical fame.
From among the philosophers, Baruch,
Spinoza, Henri Bergson; Brandeis, the
great international judge at The Hague;
Disraeli, the Prime Minister of England;
I.uzzatti, Prime Minister of Italy; Las-
salle, who created Socialism; Karl Marx,
the great social reformer; Lilianthal, who
is reputed to have been the first man to
fly, Freud, among so many great doctors
to choose from.
Then Heine, the poet; Sarah Bernhardt,
the actress; Mendelssohn; Yehudi Menu
hin, the violinist, who was born in Pales
tine.
These are a few of those who have
contributed gloriously to the life of their
countries. One could go on and on.
The Jewish people, almost the smallest
in the world, without country, without
home, for the most part under terrible
disadvantages, have contributed enor
mously to the world in every field.
On the spiritual plane they stand alone.
What is to be done? Is the problem
of the Jew insoluble? Is it his fate to
be tormented forever? It has been said:
"The land shall not be sold forever.”
1 oday the nations of the world have
promised us Palestine, our Holy Land, a
little strip of coast smaller than Wales.
Let them help us back to it.
Not for our bodies, for it can never
contain but a fragment of the people;
but give us somewhere to plant the Jew
ish soul which has wandered so many
weary centuries. For 2,000 years at the
Passover Feast, the toast has been “Next
Vear—Jerusalem 1”
I he return of Israel is a spiritual, not
a physical event. One day the tragic
muddle of the human soul will become
clear, the nations will penetrate to the
hard, bitter realities of life that lead to
the harmony of truth. That is the re
demption of man and the redemption of
Israel.
