He fought the proposal of the Census Bureau to enumerate Jews as a race.
As a result, there are no official figures, except those prepared by the
American Jewish Committee, as to the Jewish population of the United
States. The Census has them listed under a score of different
nationalities, which is not only a non-descriptive method, but a
deceptive one as well. At a pinch the Jewish authorities will admit of
3,500,000 Jews in the United States. The increase in the amount of
Passover Bread required would indicate that there are 6,000,000 in the
United States now! But the Government of the United States is entirely
at sea, officially, as to the Jewish population of this country, except
as the Jewish government in this country, as an act of courtesy, passes
over certain figures to the government. The Jews have a “foreign office”
through which they deal with the Government of the United States.
Mr. Marshall also fought the proposed naturalization laws that would
deprive “Asiatics” of the privilege of becoming naturalized citizens.
This was something of a confession!
Whenever there were extradition cases to be fought, preventing Jewish
offenders from being extradited, Mr. Marshall was frequently one who
assisted. This also was part of his “religious activities,” perhaps.
He fought the right of the United States Government to restrict
immigration. He has appeared oftener in Washington than any other Jew on
this question.
In connection with this, it may be suggested to Mr. Marshall that if he
is really interested in upholding the law of the land and restraining
his own people from lawless acts, he could busy himself with profitable
results if he would look into the smuggling of Jews across the Mexican
and Canadian borders. And when that service is finished, he might look
into the national Jewish system of bootlegging which, as a Jew of
“religious activities,” he should be concerned to break up.
Louis Marshall is leader of that movement which will force the Jew by
law into places where he is not wanted. The law compelling hotel keepers
to permit Jews to make their hotels a place of resort if they want to,
has been steadily pushed. Such a law is practically a Bolshevik order to
destroy property, for it is commonly known what Jewish patronage does
for public places. Where a few respectable Jews are permitted, the
others flock. And when one day they discover that the place they
“patronize” is becoming known as “a Jew hotel” or “a Jew club,” then all
the Jews abandon it—but they cannot take the stigma with them. The place
is known as “a Jew place,” but lacks both Jew and Gentile patronage as a
result.
