Friday, December 19, 1919. THE JEWISH MONITOR tfeven the conditions in whichsoever are just clean and wholesome can flourish and abound. "A League of Nations must be no mere theory of statesmen. It is to be the people's pact. We are answerable before God and man that it live and grow, and the people are worthy to be its.

artificers. "The nation builded upon entirely ethical conceptions realizes its debt to the world as well as its privileges to the world. It sees, itself in the lighf of an opportunity for a worldwide service, and it sees the world, not as a treasure to be exploited, but as a race of men to be advanced. All the priceless things of national life have their final justifications in enriching the whole life of man. "Now this combined caution and daring belong to the very nature of religion.

The principle of international brotherhood is to fulfill the law of the nations and this is vital to religion. "A man does not have to be false to his own religion to the good in another, and to respect it; and a man does not have to be false to his own religion to vision such a league of religions as will bing them together for the advancement of the common cause. Whatever is bud for one religion is in the long run bad for every religion. "Possibly the great war, with all its hatreds and its snvaireries, ha foster, ed the sectarian spirit in religion; and this is what is accalimed too often as a revival of religious devotion. Not in that way, however, is the cause of any religion that is pure and undefiled to be promoted.

Nothing can be gained by a revival that sets men against one another because of difference?) in belief and ritual. Rather will there be a gain by means of what promotes good fellowship, honest regards to each other's interest, and breaking down all partition walls of separation. "The sympathy of religions ought to exist, but it rarely finds expression. Why should not all religions unite for the promotion of freedom of commence social justice, economic opportunity, abolition of poverty, the mastery of disease, and whatever else mankind needs most to have advanced at the present time?" "CRIMES OF THE ZIONISTS." Accusations Made by the Chief Com-mlssar for Jewish Affairs in Run. Nia "Seized Palest ine, Expelled Arabs, Suppressed Egyptian Uprising." In Meir Grossman's article, "The Vendetta Against Zionism," describing the attempts of the Jewish Com.

munists to destroy the Zioni.it Organization in Bolshevist Ru.ia, reference is made to a memorandum which was presented to the Bolshevist government by M. Diamenstein, chief com-misar for Jewish affairs. As a result of this memorandum, a decree was issued forbidding the use of Hebrew. This decree was later withdrawn thru the energy of Chief Rabbi Maze of Pe-trograd, who convinced the fuprcme Bolshevist authorities of the absurdity of Diamenstein's charges. The Copenhagen correspondent of the New York Daily Forward has procured a copy of the Diamenstein memorandum which was published in the Russian paper, Pravda.

It runs as fol. lows: "The Jewish bourgeoisie has begun to talk'in the name of the Jewish masses, at the same time that it is playing the role of imperialistic conqueror. The Jewish Legionnaires seized Palestine and expelled the Arabians and Bedouins. These Jewish soldiers wear British uniforms. The leader of Russian Judaism, Vladimir has been appointed Governor-General of Palestine and he is doing the same things there that General Muravieff did in his time in Poland and Lithu.

ania. He suppresses every uprising of the Arabians. Not long ago the Jewish legionnaires suppressed an uprising of the Arabian in Egypt and the Paris Zionist Conference sent hearty congratulations for this act to the Legionaires. "The Jewish masses will surely pay for the crimes of the Jewish bourgeoi. sie because the time will come when the Allies will not only not prevent, but on the contrary, will help the Arabians to slaughter the entire Jewish population of Palestine, where the Jewiii'i leader Vladimir Jabotinsky, has incited the British government against immigrant-internationalists and proposed that it shall forcibly conscript immigrants in the British army.

"Our comrades who agitated against this were arrested, and thrown into jail. Among the prisoners was George Tchitcherin, who is now minister of foreign affairs of the Russian Soviet government. Dr. Herzl, the leader of Zionism once told Von Plehve that Zionism is merely a means to distract the attention of the Jewish masses from the revolutionary movement. Now the Zionists go hand in hand with the Allies and help to strangle Soviet Russia.

They, the Zionists, are on the side of the counter revolution. They are not concerned with the pogroms, but to confuse the issue with talk concerning a land of their own. The documents which were founded recently in the possession of the Zionists who were arrested, verify all that I have set forth about them."
