HOLD “JEW" MEANS RELIGION Judge Mack and Simon Wolf Want Immigrants Classified by Countries. Thom GIRLS ARE LOST Assertion is Made that Young Women Disappear on Way to Chi- cago from New York. WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.—Is the word ‘“Jew" desériptive of a race or a religion? That is one of the questions that the im- migration commission will have to answer In one of its forthcoming reports. It has been put squarely up to the members of the commission by two of the distinguished members of the race, or religion, namely, Judge Jullan Mack of Chicago and Simon Wolf, president of the B'nal B'rith, It may or may not seem strange to the members of the Jewish faith—or race—that both Judge Mack and Mr. Wolf argued to the commission that the Jews are not a race, but that the word applies to a re- ligion only. They made their statement in one of the most Interesting sessions the commisslon has had as a protest against the clagsification of Immigrants as ‘‘Jews" | Instead of as Germans, Russians, Austrians, Roumanians, etc., by countries. In other words, Mack and Wolf argued that as a race the Jews are extinct, but that they. survive as the members. af a religlous seét. 5 All Hebrews Called ‘‘WJews.” .. The argument grew out of the custom of the United States Immigration bureau in classifying all members of the Hebrew race—or faith—as Jews, no matter what country they comeé from. Mr. Wolf quoted Cyrus Adler, one of the most cminent of Hebrew scholars, to the effect that the word Jew does not mean a race, but refers to a religion. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, who is some- thing of a scholar himself, came right back with a quotation from the Jewish encyclo- pedia, of which Adler is one of the editors, stating that "“Jews" means a race and not a religion. “Take the case of Disraeli,” sald Sena- “He changed his religion, yet he was still a Jew and was known as one, and the Jewish people claim him." “True,” sald Judge Mack, “but if Dis- raell had come to America after he be- came famous in answer to the questions put to him at the port where he landed he would have sald, ‘I am an Englishman,’ " Poles No Longer Nation.
