“The International Jew” Study Hour presents: Carolyn Yeager and Hadding Scott read and comment on Chapter 35, ” ‘Jewish Rights’ Clash with American Rights.”

It is the Jews themselves that interject the religious element into the “Jewish Question.” Study of the record shows that the “rights” they demand can be summed up in the “right” to banish everything from their sight and hearing that even suggests Christianity or it’s Founder. Since 1906, with the creation of the American Jewish Committee, their demands increased in number and insistence. This chapter  details many of these demands, starting in 1899 and continuing to 1917, showing the large number of small points at which Jewish life conflicts with community life.

“The International Jew” Study Hour presents:   Carolyn Yeager and Hadding Scott complete the reading of Chapter 32 from last week “Jewish Supremacy in the Motion Picture World” and move on to  Chapter 33:  “Rule of the Jewish Kehillah Grips New York.”

Tonight’s episode is the first of a series of chapters describing how Jews organized to retain clan solidarity among the huge numbers of immigrant Jews, largely from Russia and Poland, that remained in New York City once they arrived. They  were organized under the New York Kehillah with the help of the American Jewish Committee.

The “Kehillah” has the same meaning as “Kahal,” which was in control in the ghettos of the “old country” and has courts today in NY City and signifies “community,” “assembly” and  government – the Jewish form of government in the dispersion. In reality, the Kehillah is an alliance against the Gentiles.

Among the Jews pictured at right are Louis Marshall (upper right), a founder of the American Jewish Committee ) and Rabbi Judah Leib Magnes (lower left), a founder of the New York Kehillah.
