In St. Louis, application for a charter of the Jewish Christian
Association was opposed. The converted Jews wanted an association of
their own. They represented that they had been ostracized by the Jews
and were desirous of organizing and owning their own meeting place. A
referee advised against the charter on the ground that “it would be
contrary to the broad spirit of religious freedom guaranteed under the
constitution of Missouri.” The referee was, of course, coached by Jews.
In the name of religious freedom these Jews opposed giving an
association freedom enough to preach the gospel.
In Toronto the Jewish leaders issued a proclamation throughout all
Toronto Jewry forbidding the use of reading rooms, baths, dispensaries,
motion picture shows or anything else which they described as “the petty
bribery of conversionist tricksters who seek for their wealthy donators
to open the gates of heaven and find salvation for their sins by
converting a weak-minded Jew.”
By the way, all converted Jews are weak-minded or criminal, if we are to
believe the hundreds of statements to that effect in the Jewish papers.
The Jews are, without exception, superior people until they become
Christians; _then_ learn what they are from the Jewish leaders!
Among the nice names for this welfare work are “Jesus holes,” “mission
traps,” “Jew-snatchers,” “child stealers.”
It happened that one of the helpers in the Chicago Gospel Mission was
principal of a Chicago public school. The Jews raised a great outcry
against him, denounced him as unfit to teach children, and guilty of
“the moral turpitude of eating food provided by taxes of which a large
share is received from Jews, whose children they seek to entice from
their parental religion and whose men and women they are seeking to
degrade into liars and hypocrites.” All because a competent man was
willing to meet Jewish inquirers, or perhaps bring a few of the benefits
of civilization into the neglected ghetto. If this school teacher were
Christian enough to have a conscience, he would resign, said the Jewish
thunderers, and with that never-failing tinge of dark-mindedness they
added: “What is done in secret in these haunts can, of course, only be
guessed at.”
Talk about bigotry! This from a people who encourage the cry that THE
DEARBORN INDEPENDENT is engaged in “religious persecution,” though THE
DEARBORN INDEPENDENT has not yet carried even one of the scores of
sensational and important stories which show the Federal Government
discovering synagogues and rabbis as agents of the illicit liquor
traffic. “These _haunts_” and hints of the things that may go on there,
is the only way the _American Israelite_ can find to refer to welfare
works in which some of the best people, from no motive but the goodness
of their hearts, engage.
A book of 500 pages could be filled with the unreasonable and in many
cases positively vicious statements of leading Jews on any of the
subjects touched here.
