Shaw on the Jews
Mr. Shaw tells the interviewer uf tht Jewisli XclcKraphic ,\j;cncy very frankly that the Iroahle with the Jew is, not that he has an inferiority cumvlex, but that he has a superiority co]nplcx, Mr. Shaiv a<ltls that he understands the malady ver> wcjl, for he is an Irishman, and tlie Irish are even tnore arrogant racially thjni the Jew.
Like most of tlie things G. B. S. says this is' all right as a shocker, but you can't simplify the Jewish problem quite So fiicilely.
If it is the Jews, who have the su- . Jieriority complex, how will Mr. Shan explain Mr. Houston Chamberlain's e.\- altatioii of the Ttulonic genius .above all others—his making even of Jesus into a Teuton to prove his point? How will In explain (he whole Nordic school of su¬ periority preachers?
And Mr. Shaw himself is not exactly a victim of the inferiority complex. By his own admisson, the Uatc Mr. Shakes¬ peare was just a little hack writer in comparison to him, And yet as far as 1 know, despite this superiority complex, there is no movement to keep Mr Shaw out of country clubs or to deny hiin ad¬ mission to Harvard University. A Jevrish Trader Horn
I have just discovered a Jewish Trader Horn—discovered him at my elbow, so to speak. He is a colleague at the office ol the Jewish Telegraphic ¦ Agency. A newspaperman by profession, every once ill a while, he throws his pencils out of the window and hies away to distant parts to become metamorphosed into aii-- other being.
He was a farmer for about a year. He was in social work for some time. With the Jewish Legion in Palestine for the War period. But most interesting of all to me—was his three years' trading among the natives of the South African interior.
Clubs and.Packs
The majority of the tmders in South Africa, he tells me, are Jews. We Jews, too, it appears, are imperialists of a sort. Was it Kipling, who wrote about "civiliz-, ing them with a club" ? VlTell, at any rate, that is largely the modern way of bringing civilization to the primitives. Instead of the club, we:Jew.s use the ped- .dler's pack, ¦ 1 have been urging my friend to reduce his experiences to writing. He has a ¦ mint of material.
Your Character Quotient One of the most interesting aspects of thB_ South African native is the test which he puts the white man through, when he first comes among them. Talk about your modern intelligence tests I The universities have a lot to learn from the African duskies.
When the trader first comes among them,-1 am told, he is exasperated to the point of desperation by the natives. They . will do anything to rile you^o irritate you—to make you lose, your temper.   ¦
Some of the traders will swear and shout—cursing their black ways. But happy the man who remains. calm and placid. His fortune is made. For the natives were simply testing you. They want to know what sort you are.. And they esteem above all other qualities— patience. If they find you are patient, the word is soon spread. There will he no more ordeals for you. ¦
All Have Nicknames There are no better readers pf charac¬ ter than the African blacks, my.inform¬ ant says. After they have marked you mentally as to patience, they watch yon .for honesty, for dependability, for keep¬ ing your word. .And after they have summed : up your Character Quotient, they give you a name on the basis of .that appraisal. , -
I asked my newspaper friend what his nickname was.    He. rather blushed and hesitantly admitted "The Square Man." And if yoii know this Jewish "I'rader ' Horn. you  will agree that this  was  a pretty goo<l appraisal. '
Legalism Is Defended At last, a good word is being said for ''Jewish legalism." Years ago, it was the fashion ih theology to decry Judaism as being a religion of justice, whereas Christianity einphasized a higher ideal, namely, love. Some of us drew consola¬ tion when Herbert Spencer came along in his Ethics aud took the Jewish point of view, declaring that justice was the superior ideal. The fight rage<l. There was in it, among others, such a re¬ doubtable protagonist as Achad Haam. Only a few years ago, an American rabbi. Maxwell Silver, brother of Abba Hillel Silver of Cleveland, wrote a book on the thesis of Justice vs. Love.
Puritanism and Judaism Along with his, att.ack, the Jewish front was subjected to attack from an¬ other direction. Judaism was legalistic— it was the religion of "thou shalt nots, etc."
Puritanism, the spirit which really fashioned the warp and woof of our American civilization, was Hebraic in origin. The Puritans, too, were always "thou shalt notting.". The fact that after all, a great American civilization had been built up around this Puritanism did not matter. The fact that the Puritans could have chosen the New TestaniiMit but did not, hut instead chose the Old Testament for their guide did not matter Mr. Adams Speaks Now there comes a defender to the "thou shalt hot." And strangely enough, the defender is one of those apostles of that younger generation of libertarianism. He is none other than James Truslow Adams.
In that symposium—"Living Credos," which has just come oif the press, Adams defends "Thou shalt not" philosophy from the very standpoint on whicii it is attacked. He declares thai the "thou (Continued on page 3.)
Prominent   Chicago   Rabbi
Backs Proposal to Abolish
Jewish Fraternities
CHICAGO—Professor Horace Kal- len's j)roiio.sal to abolish all Jewish fra¬ ternities is endorsed completely by Tobias .Schanfarhcr, rabbi emeritus of K. A. M, Temple, Chicago, in an article appe;iriiig ill the Aug. I issue of Ihe Cliica.gu Rc- loriii Advoc-ite. Ralibi Schanfarlicr agrees with Prof. Kallen tliat frateiiiilies lirccd snobbery between Jew and Jew.
"1 am well aware of the iact that the fraternity nian claims that the fraternity IS a great force in the social life.of the Jewish young man and that ii it were to ue abolished a great force for good would go out of his life, but for all that, as far as I am concerned, they have mi real raisoii d'etre," says Dr. Schanfarber.
I hey were instituted as an ollsel to tlic Greek fraternities which closed their doors 111 [he face of the Jew. To protect Himself the Jewish college student called the Jewish fraternity into existence.
'"I'he snob Christian excluded the Jew from his Greek fraternity, and now the snob Jew is doing the very same thing that the snob Cliristian has heen doing all these years. He is turning up his Jew- nose against his brother-Jew, wlioiii he thinks iiot quite as ricli or as good as he IS. I do not believe that the question of good' enters into the proposition at all. It is-not a matter of character, nor even of the intellectual standing of the stu¬ dent. To my mind it is. more or less a question of Dunn's .-\gency—what ratine tile father of tbe boy has in the money world. I have asked quite a number ol college young men why they are nol .iieniiiers of a certain Jewish fraternity and the reply invariably was, "I could nol, get, in.' They also volunteered the in¬ formation that the fraternity they would like lo join would not have them, and those that wanted them, they did not wani to join.
. "The college fraternity in general is a breeder of the worst kind of snobbish¬ ness, upatartisin and even much worst than that. .\nd what is true of the gen¬ eral fraternity is equally true of the so- called Jewish fraternities. 1 am giad to see that some of these Jewish fratiirnities have established .Scholarships at the He¬ brew University at Jerusalem. That is something in their favor and they deserve credit for it. But they could do.that even withovit the existence of an organized fraternity. I have no use at all for ; Jewish fraternity. I would, like Profes¬ sor Kallen, abolish eycry one of thein, even though 1 do not believe with him that 'Zionism was the only force .through which "the Jew could achieve a sense oi belonging.'"       .  .

Einstein Appeals to Scientists
To Abstain from War
Research
LYONS, FRANCE-Appeal to the scientists of the world to refuse to coop- crate in research for the creation of new instruments of war was made today by Professor Albert Einstein, in a message addressed to the International Conference of the Opponents of War which opened its session here today.
"Those who think that the danger of war is passed are living in a, fool's para¬ dise," Dr. Einstein wrote. "We face to¬ day a militarism far more powerful and destructive than that which brought on the world war disaster," he declared.
After pleading with scientists to have nothing to do with research that would result in new terrors of warfare, the dis¬ tinguished savant appealed "to all men and women to declare before the dis armament conference meets at Geneva ii February that they will refuse to give further assistance to war or to war prep aratlons."  .

Wolf, wealthy real estate owneri from whoni the nninicipality has leased several of his properties, has offered to reduce his rental by ten per cent.

[EDITOR'S NOTE: The seventieth] birthday of the head of tlie Ilonse of Speyer. and Company proinded newspa¬ pers ill this coMiiiry and abroad xvith oc¬ casion for their editorials of eousjratula- lions. The reasons for his popularity are given in this brief biographical article, tvritten especially for The Ohio Jewish Chronicle.]
There are some lo whom the name James Speyer (German American, Jew¬ ish banker, just turned seventy) opens the tap for anecdotes. Those gentry like to tell of his session with the German Kaiser at a time when the head of the Ilolienzollerns wag strutting in full glory on the stage of European politics. Rue¬ fully, Herr Speyer informed the All- Highest that he had no son to carry on the Speyer name. ¦ "But," asked the Kaiser, "there are at least some Speyers left in Frankfort ?" "No," the American banker replied. ''This will never do," the Kaiser is reported to have exclaimed. There must always be a' Speyer in Frankfort." And so he conferred a title his companon's brother-in-law and permitted him to add "von Speyer" to his name.
Which was one way of adding tlie Speyer family to the ranks of the Ger¬ man nobility.
There are other anecdotes.
Some concern themselves with Spey- er's fondness for travel and his weak ear for music (despite, a close friendship with Fritz Kreislcr). Others tell of his devotion to his wife and of his attach¬ ment to European trips each summer. Some tell of his unpopularity during the years of the anti-German feeling; others add that he did not bow to com]jromise even in that sky clouded period.
There is a story to the effect thai Speyer has placed the image of a donkey in his ofTicc, to warn him against making an ass of himself; a warning he con¬ fesses to which he did not always give heed. And there are more of that kind, to reveal a witty, urbane, popular figure, quite unbankerlike in his' stature of five feet with little plus, and in his democratic goo<l luimor. .
But those who are taken In by these stories to suppose that they are his only characteristics are deceived in the man. _ For James Speyer, head of the interna¬ tional banking house of Speyer and Com¬ pany and a descendant of a family that has been pronn'neiVt on these shores and in Europe for its banking genius, is what his profession points him out to be —a banker! Which means that be pos¬ sesses ability, and influence, and tradi¬ tion, and. shrewd knowledge of. human character. Add the fact that J. S. is the brains of his institutions and another pic¬ ture emerges than that of a good-natured jester.
Herr Speyer once headed a banking house that was a rvmner np for honors with the institution which the elder J. P. Morgan controls, or that of the famed Kuhn, Loeb Company., When Europe was the treasure house of the world and American railroading and American ex¬ pansion were capitalized with Euidiw's money, the Speyer banking house was greatly to be reckoned with. Lately the institution has not profited so much by its valuable associations with the banking houses across the Atlantic. But Jame_s Speyer is still head of an institution thsit commands much respect; he still is a banker whom Wall Street heeds care¬ fully.
He was born seventy years ago, in New York. Hia father was Gustav Speyer, one of the founders (the other was his brother) of Speyer and Com¬ pany, an event which dates back to 1837. Young Speyer was sent abroad to study. (Incidentally it was at Frankfort that he acquired his Teuton accent.) When he was twenty years old, he entered his father's banking house in Frankfort, Later he learned more of the occupation in London and Paris before returning to New York where he joined his father's banking house.
Here it was that his shrewd abilities brought greater fame than ever befort to the banking house whose name was also his own. There was a time, a writer reports, when the Speyer banking institu¬ tion could have raised *50,00O,O0O over¬ night without appealing to other banks
to join in the undertaking. Now Speyer himself is said to possess- a fortune ot half that sum; but the house he Heads is conservative. U is, too, not as spry ai once it was, ih its efforts to handle the money needs of this country. Half a uoicn other banking houses have over- paced it. Speyer, being a continental in family origin, in his accent, and in many of his tastes and habits, in.ust take this with perfect sang-froid^ He prefers, now at least that he has reached three score and ten, to be more leisurely as befits a banker whose training is drawn from a more leisurely continciit.   '
But it would be a mistake to suppose that because Mr. Speyer is not as ag¬ gressive as once he was in matters of banking, that he is possessed of less en¬ ergy than aforetime. By no means is this",true.
James Speyer has more to do than to make money. He finds the occasion to spend it. And what is even more, he finds the opportunity time and again to give goodly slices of it away. ,
He is one pf the founders of the Provident Loan Society. He is president of the University Settlement Society. He is an officer of the Charity Organization Society. He is a director of Mount Sinai Hospital and of the Isabella Home. He is treasurer of the New York Women's League for animals. To Teacher's Col lege, Columbia University, he presented the .Speyer School some thirty years ago in the name of his wife and-in his own name. He finds time and funds for the United Hospital Fund of New York and has given neat slices of his wealth to a favorite of his: the Museum of the City of Mew York. This from a New Yorker who has spent many months bf each year abro_ad and who, aa has been told, has a Frankfort echo in his speech, this may be another of his many witticisms.
He has donated much to his favorite city in Europe: Frankfort. For his gen¬ erous support of many of that ancicm city's cultural institutions,, especially of its art nniseums, the city fathers recently voted bim an honorary citizenship. And the German press in general knew how to pay honor to this friend of their na¬ tion, as was demonstrated when his re¬ cent birthday evoked more than one cdn- gratulatory editorial. It was pointed qui that even in his affection for the Museum of the City of New York, a vestige of a German custom stood revealed. The inuseum is derived from European models, from German models especially.
Typical of the prominent New Yorker, Speyer has habits that make him recog¬ nizable from amid the group. He is short of stature. He is always accoutred in' a dark suit. He invariably wears a wing collar, and, dnring the day, the long cravat. He is generally jovial and good humored. He is always ready with a bon mot. He most frequently inspires confidence and affectiori.
These are outward' adjuncts of the man. Seen against the light of his in¬ fluential banking achievements, they take on a greater interest than ever, b'y the fact that they are adjuncts of a man whose fame is chiefly based on banking ability of extraordinary rank. (Copyright 1931, J. T. A.)
New York—David A, Brown, hanker, businessman and internationally known leader in philanthropic movements, has becii made president and publisher of The American Hebrew, a national weekl\ publication, according to an ainiouncc- nicnt in the current, issue of the magazine by Rabbi Isaac Landman, editor,
Mr. Brown, who has headed inany large corporations, has been in.the piibht eye since the beginning of the World War in connection -with many money-raising activities in which be has been the leader. These activities in.the war-torn countries throughout the world have been both Jewish and non-Jewish. _ His efforts in connection with the Joint Distribution Committee in Russia and the other coun- .trics of Europe received the personal praise of President Hoover.
.It is estimated that through Mr. Brown's personal efforts, in excess of $ 100,000,0(10 have been made available for human rehabilitation. Following the .¦\rab outbreak in Palestine iri 1929 his leader¬ ship in the Palestine Emergency Fund raised more than $2,000,000 during a period of severaLweeks. .
The war and the post-war period, es¬ pecially after America's entry, made ad¬ ditional demands on Mr. Brown's genius, for fund-raising. Ilis services to the Red Cross and to the Knights of Colum¬ bus are notable examples of his respon¬ siveness tp humanitarian calls| regardless of. crcedal considerations. Under Mr. Brown's leadership, many millions of dol¬ lars were obtained for hospitals, Y. M., H. A.'s, Talmud Torahs, synagogues, temples and Jewish Centers. .\ recog- nozed authority in philanthropic effort, consulted by leaders both JcwtsU and uon- Jewish wherever large sums of. money have to be secured, Mr. Brown has gi\*en 01 himself freely in these services.
While chairinan of the Finance Com¬ mittee of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, he also labored shoulder to shoulder with the late Louts Marshall in raising $1,000,000 for the Jewish The¬ ological Seminary, as well as with tho late Nathan Lamport in the endeavor to create a large fund for tbe Yeshiva'Col¬ lege.
Mr. Brown is at present the National Chairman of the China Famine Relief which, during the past two years, has sent over -tSiOOO.OOO (Mex.) into that country. He is the President of David A. Brown, Inc., of New York; President of the Keystone Transportation Com pany, of New York,; and a Director and business consultant in numerous commer¬ cial enterprises in New York and else¬ where.

Mayor Walker Sends Check For $22,500 to Joint Dis¬ tribution Committee
Proceeds   of   Birthday   Dinner
Held in Brooklyn Received by
. Commillee
NEW YORK — Mayor James J. '¦ Walker last week turned over to the New York Cbnimittee of the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee which is .seeking l.OOO.OOO for suffering Jewry in Eastern and Central Europe a check for .*i2, TiflO representing its proceeds of a dinner arranged in its Brooklyn Com-. mittee on the occasion of his fiftieth birthday. The check was presented to him. by Irwin Stciiigut, Minority As¬ sembly Leader and Chairman of the Brooklyn Committee, and Alien was handed to Hon. Albert Ottinger, Chair¬ man of the New York Committee, who then presented it to Rabbi Jonah B. Wise, National Chairman of the drive.
Mayor Walker's birthday dinner was held at the St. George Hotel in Brooklyn on Monday evening, June Slst. It marked the launching of the Brooklyn effort in the drive to raise funds for destitute Jewry abroad. 1,000 prominent men, women^Jewish leaders, active in the po- , litical and communal life of the city- attended.
In speaking of the needs of suffering Jewry abroad and in commenting on the work of the'Joint Distribution Commit¬ tee, the Mayor said:
^^ "Somewhere I think comes a-wail that has echoed and echoed dovvn through the centuries, an echo that came from the, forebcarers for generiitions beyond those tbat sufffcr in middle and, Eastern Europe . of the Jew because of his loyalty, of his devotion, of his self-sacrifice to the point of giving up his very life for the things in which he believes, which his fathers tiiught — a sacrifice that makes religion more glorious than the written word.can describe it,
"What  is   religion  without  sacrifice? ¦ What    is   anything   without   sacrifice? What is friendship or companionship that will not make a sacrifice? . If-sacrificc be . an attribute, if it be an ornament to hu¬ manity, then may it not with grace be said by the Mayor of the City of New, York that he experiences and knows the deep seated trial in that exalted'"office, because he has theprivilege, of presiding, over 900,000 Jews in this single borough of the five?
"Of course, there are those who will say, as it frequently has been said, 'Haven't we enough trouble at home? Haven't we and don't wC knOw enough suffering on our own soil?' The Joint Distribution Committee is not a creation oi the depression that now traverses the entire world. The Joint Distribution^^ Committee knew no racial or sectarian distinction, but sent its hard earned money throughout the world in the hope that it might bring relief, assistance and benefit to peoples of all sects land all re¬ ligious beliefs."   ,
