The question arises whether it is patriotic for Mr. Marshall to implant
into the minds of his foreign-born co-religionists the idea that this is
not a Christian country, that Sunday laws should be opposed, and that
the manners and customs of the native-born should be scorned and
ridiculed. The effect has been that thousands of immigrant Jews from
Eastern Europe are persistently violating Sunday laws in the large
industrial centers of the country, that they are haled to court,
lectured by judges, and fined. American Jews who are carrying into
practice the teachings of Mr. Marshall and his followers are reaping the
whirlwind of a natural resentment.
Mr. Marshall was the leader of the movement which led to the abrogation
of the treaty between the United States and Russia. Whenever government
boards or committees are appointed to investigate the actions, conduct
or conditions of foreign-born Jews, great influences are immediately
exerted to have Mr. Marshall made a member of such bodies to “protect”
the Jewish interests.
As head of millions of organized Jews in the United States, Mr. Marshall
has invariably wielded this influence by means of a campaign of
“protests,” to silence criticisms of Jewish wrongdoing. He thus
protested when testimony was made before the Senate Sub-Committee in
Washington, in 1919, that the Jewish East Side of New York was the
hotbed of Bolshevism. Again he protested to Norman Hapgood against the
editorial in _Harper’s Weekly_, criticising the activities of Jewish
lobbyists in Washington.
Mr. Marshall describes himself in “Who’s Who” as a leader in the fight
for the abrogation of the treaty with Russia. That was a distinct
interference in America’s political affairs and was not a “religious
activity” connected with the preservation of “Jewish rights” in the
United States. The limiting expression “in the United States” is, of
course, our own assumption. It is doubtful if Mr. Marshall limits
anything to the United States. He is a Jew and therefore an
internationalist. He is ambassador of the “international nation of
Jewry” to the Gentile world.
The pro-Jewish fights in which Mr. Marshall has been engaged in this
country make a considerable list:
