Here Is Something To Think About
(The Jewish Criterion)
The leaders of the Zionist party and of the United
Jewish Campaign are privileged to use up all the news-
paper space they choose, but we warn them that the
public is likely to begin to think that they are debating
the question of what is best to do with twenty-five or
thirty millions of dollars, in order to justify their own
positions. There is too much feeling and we charge
openly there is too much prejudice for the good of the
cause, and when we say “cause” we mean the cause of
the Jew. .There is an overdose of propaganda on. both
sides and with one side calling the other side names and
the other side returning the compliment with interest
the first thing these gentlemen will find out that Amer-
ican .Jewry will get tired of giving in such circumstances.
We differ sharply from those writers who believe that
these controversies clear the air. They create confusion
and suspicion and impatience and anger. It’s about time
that all the leaders in Jewry should meet in a spirit of
understanding. For example', despite all the rosy state-
ments of James Rosenberg and Mr. Marshall’s letter to
us, Kalenin, President of the Union of Soviet Republics,
says in an interview that the peasants are hostile to the
settlement of Jews on the land the Soviet government
has given to the Jews. There is a great deal more be-
hind the whole business than has appeared on the sur-
face. That is our solemn conviction.

No sooner did the news of the
founding of the Rhode Island Colony
reach the Jews of New York, still
subjected to many lurking restric-
tions and annoyances at the hands of
its Dutch rulers, than an active
movement began amongst them for
emigration into the new colony. In
1G57 quite a few of the New York
Jewish settlers left for Rhode Island,
and there were presently augmented
by the arrivals from Brazil the West
Indies and other points. In 1755 (be-
fore the N. Y. exodus), the Jewish'
Community of' Newport, R. L,
counted 40 families. Their number
increased with the passing of -time,
and with the growth of that town as
a commercial center. •
How important Newport was con-
sidered commercially in Colonial
days can be learned from a perusal
.of contemporary documents, the re-
cords of the customs entries of that
and other ports, as well as by read-
ing the pages of subsequently-writ-
ten historv. “He was thought 1) bold
prophet.” says the historian Eggles-

might one day equal Newport.”

B --------------------
It is a fact, too little known to
most people, that the Pilgrim Fath
ers, the real founders of the Ameri-
can Commonwealth and the builder
of this now so mighty and free na-
tion, were animated in their hazare-
cus task by the old Hel raic spirit
that they had imbibed from their
daily and attentive perusal of the
Old Testament. Tin- Pilgrim Fathers,
in their revolt against the Church
and Governmental authorities in the
Homeland, which revolt drove them
to seek asylum first in the more hos-
pitable Holland and afterwards to
cross the Atlantic in search of a new
home, drew their inspiration from
the Books of Moses, and the Pro-
phets. And when, after much peril
and hardship, they finally did reach
a haven of' safety, they set about to
organize their new life on the old
Judaic pattern.
In the writings of the time, the
Pilgrims frequently . refer to them-
selves as “Christian' Israel,” James
I, their persecutor, is “Pharaoh”,
the Atlantic was the "Red Sea” that
they had crossed in order to reach
the-“New Canaan”, to get to Amer-
ica “whither the Shekinah had
guided them through the sea.” “He-
brew Mortar,” says Lecky, “cement-
ed the foundations, of American De-
mocracy," while the historian, John
Fiske, affirms that “the same ethi-
cal impulse which animated the
glowing pages of Hebrew poets and
prophets, and which has given to the
history and literature of Israel their
commanding influence in the world”
has also influenced the early Amer-
ican colonists and legislators. “It
ws the great privilege of Israel of
Old,”'reads the foreword to the 1658
revision of the Pilgrim Code, “and
so was acknowledged by them, Ne-
hemiah the 9th, I 3th. That God gave
them right judgment and true lawes
and accordingly wee can safely say
that wee have had an eye primarily
and principahy unto the aforesaid
Platforme." “Ye Judicals of Moyses"
says Bradford, “are immutable and
perpetual.”
The sentiment in the American
colonies being such, it stands to rea-
son that ; the Jews, suffering-from
persecution in all Christian countries
at that time and undergoing actual
martyrdom and untold tortures in
some of them, should seek asylum in
the' colonies planted by a freedom-
loving people in a land situated on
the further side of‘the wide ocean,
far, far removed from the flames of
the Inquisition and the ferocity of
persecuting rulers and fanatical pop-
ulaces. And so we find Jewish set-
tlors in practically all of the thirteen
American colonies: a greater number
in some of. them, a-lesser number in
Others, but everywhere forming a
highly intelligent and active element,
contributing of, their best to the,eco-
nomie and cultural development of
the growing settlements. And later
on, when fate had ordained it that
the colonies Should undergo the test
-of fee in the days of the Revolution,
to' prove their heroism ad devotion
to theeountry of their birth or adop-
tion by their action of self-sacrifice
and daring that such luminous pages
irr the annals of the period form.
What is said’ above is especially
true of the Rhode Island colony,
founded by the broad-minded Roger
Williams and his associates, the
Charter of which colony proclaimed
that “all men of whatever nation so-
ever they may be, that shall be re-
towns, shall have the same privileges
as Englishmen, any law to the con-
trary notwithstanding.” At the same
time, the founders of this colony de-
clared before the entire world that,
“we have no laws for preventing
any one from declaring by words
their mind or understanding concern-
ing the ways of the things of God,”
and that “‘persecution only tended
to increase sects,” instead of sup-
pressing them as all Christian de-
nominations and governments so
fondly believed and so cruelly prac-
ticed.
For this broad-minded attitude,
so much in contrast with the narrow-
mindedness and intolerance that
characterized the neighboring Puri-
tan Colony of Massachusettes, the
founders of Rhode Island received
not a little of scolding and reproba-
tion, it is true. Cotton Mather, the
great Massachusetts Divine, refers
sneeringly to the new colony as
“the common receptacle of the con-
victs of Jerusalem and the outcasts
of the land." But this sneering did

port in 1743, while Lopez came in
1748. Both were exceedingly enter-
prising and active men of business,
contributing not a little to the in-
dustrial and commercial prosperity
of the rising.settlement. It is a mat-
ter of record that, of the 150 vessels
engaged in general trade at Newport
at this period,’Lopez owned not few-
er than 30 or 20 per cent. Jacob
Rodriguez-Rivera was extensively in-
terested in whaling, in the manufac-
ture of candles (of which he had in
operation no fewer than 13 factories
at one time), in the manufacture of
whaleoil and other widely used prod-
ucts. Indeed, the extent of Rivera’s
traffic' in these necessities was such
that his sway extended to practically
the entire New England region, so
that it had been facetiously remark-
ed hy some students of the period
that the “true progenitor of the Oil
Trust was not John D. Rockefeller,
but , Jacob Rodriguez-Rivera of New-
port, and the oil thus monopolized
was not the modern petroleum, but
the oil extracted from the blubber
of the whale. Its ramifications, were,
however, Inter-Colonial in their
scope, affecting the ‘inhabitants of
most of the New England colonies.
