the Jews.
In the drug traffic Jews are playing a prominent part both here and in
America. An eminent New York doctor writes to me as follows:
Members of the Federal narcotic squad attached to the Treasury
Department and having the function of enforcing the provisions of
the Harrison Act have long been convinced that there is a direct
relationship between Radicalism and narcotism. From seven to ten
years ago this was thought to be a manifestation of pan-German
propaganda. Activity was and still is greater on the part of the
distributors and pedlars than is to be accounted for by the large
profits, according to their story. Curiously enough, the traffic
largely stopped for several weeks following the signing of the
Armistice.
In one instance, seven regularly licensed physicians of the "East
Side," all Jews, were arrested in succession during the summer of
1920 for illegitimate use of narcotic prescriptions, and every
office raided had large quantities of Radical literature. Such
associations are not uncommon.
As to the distribution, a recent investigation by _Hearst's
Magazine_ definitely revealed the fact that the illegitimate
distributors were almost invariably of the Jewish race, and that
the pedlars were exclusively Jewish and Italian.
Enough, then, has been said to show that, whether as agents or as
principals, Jews are playing a part in all subversive movements. A
Christian Jew, no renegade to his race but deeply concerned for their
future development, said recently to the present writer: "The growing
materialism amongst Jews has made them the most destructive force in the
world. The only hope for them is to accept Christianity. At present
they are the greatest danger that Christian civilization has to face."
The recognition of all these facts does not of course imply the belief
that all Jews are destructive. Undoubtedly there are good and loyal
Jews--particularly in France, where the Sephardim predominate--who have
absolutely identified themselves with the country of their adoption, and
are sincerely opposed to Bolshevism. But these isolated individuals
carry little weight compared to the massed forces of subversive Jewry.
The same thing was observed in America, where a report privately
communicated to the present writer in 1923 stated:
It appears not without significance that Radical literature is
