DR. GOLDENSON TELLS A SESSION OF RABBIS A MINORITY MUST NOT USE

TACTICS OF FOES

Special to the New York Times
" Wernersville, PA., June 14 — Good will, not hate or reprisals, will end,
or offset, the evils of the Hitler government’s persecution of Jews,

Professor Henry J. Cadbury, Professor of Biblical Literature at Bryn
Mawr College, told the Central Conference of American Rabbis as it
%2Fwww.dailykos.com%2Fstory%2F2018%2F6%2F27%2F1775826%2F-Full-Text-of-1934-Times-
opened its convention here today.

The message as president of the conference was delivered tonight by
the Rev. Dr. Samuel H. Goldenson, rabbi of Temple Emanu-El, New
York.
“You can prove to your oppressors that their objectives and methods
are not only wrong, but unavailing in the face of the world’s protests
and universal disapproval of the injustices the Hitler program entails.
“By hating Hitler and trying to fight back, Jews are only increasing the
severity of his policies against them.”
“If Jews throughout the world try to instill into the minds of Hitler and
his supporters recognition of the ideals for which the race stands, and
if Jews appeal to the German sense of Justice and German national
conscience, I am sure the problem will be solved more effectively and
earlier than otherwise.”
Professor Cadbury declared “it is the duty of Christians the world over
to help right the injustices wrought by the Nazis.”
“Boycotts are simply war without bloodshed,” he said, “and war in any
form is not they way to right the wrongs being inflicted on the Jewish
people.”
But he warned that the remedy against Hitlerism and the protection
for minority groups lay not in a mere denunciation but “in the
improvement of social conditions and relations wherever we live.”
Dr. Goldenson pointed out that “men like Hitler unfortunately are
always present in the world, at any rate potentially,” adding:
“It is only when their fellows are greatly disturbed, defeated and
frustrated that they become a prey to demagogues and false
messiahs.”
“We have already seen the signs of havoc wrought by uninformed and
uncritical solidarity in our midst. In many cities our people have been
called together by self-appointed leaders for the assertion of Jewish
rights and for the promotion of special programs and objectives. the
appeal has almost invariably been made in the name of Jewish
solidarity.”
Jews, Dr. Goldenson said, “should wish to give the world more than
successful careers.”
“In recent years our people have become specialist in the art of
conducting campaigns. We have managed many successful drives for
relief, philanthropy and general social welfare. The time has come to
use our expert knowledge as campaigners for the most vital need of
our people and our day, the revitalization of religious faith and the
reconsecration to ethical and spiritual ideals.”
“Why may not the week of Chanukah be used for such a campaign?”
In line with this program, Dr. Goldenson urged also the establishment
of a weekly paper “whose sole purpose should be the dissemination of
the knowledge of Judaism.”
Such a course, he said, will increase respect for Jewish schools. Twenty-
five large schools in various cities are now giving advanced instruction
to over 5,000 adults he reported.

“Oppression of Jews in German by Hitler and his Nazi forces can be ended not by hate that their
victims may display, or by attempts to fight back,” he said, “but by efforts to cultivate good will.”
Sure, absolutely, if by “good will” you mean a crushing defeat by Allied forces.
In these times, if you’re not fighting back you’re complicit. imho maybe there are a comparative
handful of Trumpists who can still be reached with goodwill. The rest will only understand
overwhelming defeat.

Yeah, this works so well. Not!
Interesting how people in the majority always have bad advice for the people who are at risk of
harm. People in power don’t give a flick about anything but control and power. Being nice to
oppressors didn’t free the slaves, didn’t save the Jews and won’t reunite Latin children with their
parents. And it damn sure won’t help Democrats vs. Repubs.
Chuck Shumer, Nancy Pelosi, David Axelrod, WaPo and anyone who criticizes Auntie Maxine Waters
should STFU. Don’t tell us how to act toward people who threaten our very existence. This advice is
insane!
I wonder if the Times did a followup on Professor Cadbury 10 years later? Ugh!
