In the great congregations are special hospitals for
Russian soldiers--regardless of their creed--founded by Jews and with
Jewish money. Not a few Jewish soldiers have already won the highest
military distinctions, nay, a few of them have even received them from
Mr. Rennenkampf, the Commander in Chief himself, who used to be a
zealous anti-Semite, as the Russian Court on the whole is passionately
anti-Semitic. The manifesto from the Czar _To my dear Jewish subjects_,
which has been printed in the French newspapers, has never been anything
but a fabrication.
While the usual accusation against the Jews in Russian Poland was that
of sympathizing with the Russians--for which they have no special
reason--Mr. A. Warinski, who in Russia is classed among the black ones,
also called the true Russians--in "Politiken" has made the charge
against them that the German attempts of gaining the Poles "have only
had the effect desired on the Russian and Polish Jews, as these
elements, because of psychological relation with the Prussians, feel
disposed to place themselves at the side of Germany." This accusation
and the arguments for it might express the culmination. The Jew shall
and must be Judas. If it cannot be accomplished in one way the opposite
way is tried. Mr. Warinski does not say one word about how many Jews
have gone into the war as volunteers out of pure enthusiasm for Poland.
