Tin' function of the commission is
((Xvntirtued fruin' Page l |, defined in its by-laws': “Whcnuver, a

t'ajier was set forth by them in the j forc the commisaiort claiming that it

be t heir untiring exponent unto our
brothers of other persuasion; these
are the duties of every American Ho*
brew and, in the knowledge of-them,
we go forth to win your approval."
Kndeavoring to carry out this pol-
icy, Dr. Isaac Landman, the present
editor of the American Hebrew,
launched a movement shortly after
the ending of the World War, which
culminated in the organization, on
April th, 1927,. of the permanent
Commission on Better Understanding
lletween Christian and Jew in Amer-
ica. I bis commission is composed of
laV and clerical representatives of
each "f the three ^ major faiths in
America, as follows:
Protestants: Dr. W. H. I’. Kaunce,
former president of Brown Univer-
sity, Rev. Dr. fl, I’arkes Cudman,
prcsiilent of the Federal Council of
the Churches of Christ in America,
Dr. RoscOc Pound, dean of the Har-
vard I.aw School and former presi-
dent of the Association of American
I.aw Schools.
Catholics: Father Francis P. Duf-
fy, president of the Rainbow Division
Veterans’ Association, awarded I). S.
C., lion. Victar J. Dowling, presiding
law or at the hands of the govern-
ment, the Permanent Commission on
Better Understanding shall investi-
gate, ascertain and enunciate the
truth—create and voice public opin-
ion on the subject.”
In its early days,While' the original
founders were in control of the pol-
icies of The American Hebrew, the
entire group acted as an editorial
hoard that passed on the writings of
its individual members before any of
| their lucubrations Were published.
P.hiUp Cowen was its publisher for u
period of twenty-six years, when ho
was succeeded by Cyrus L. Sulz-
berger. In'Utlfi the publication was
acquired by Mr. Edelhqrtz, it« pres-
ent publisher, who previously had
been jassistant to the attorney gen-
eral of the United States in Presi-
dent Wilson’s administration and
chairman of the hoard of directors
of the Motion Picture Theatre Own-
ers Chamber of Commerce of the City
of New York. In addition to han-
dling the business side of the weekly,
Mr. Edclhcrtz has contributed many
articles to the publication as well as
to daily newspapers and general mag-
azines, notably on economic condi-
tions in Russia and Poland. The
group editoriship of the American
Hebrew continued until 1906, when
justice of the Appellate Division ef the late Joseph Jacobs, a British jour-

because the sole editor. Dr. Jacobs
was succeeded in 1910 by Herman
Bernstein, and Rabbi I-andmun be-
came the editor eleven years ago.
During the fifty years of its exist-
ence the American Hebrew has ab-
sorbed a number of other Jewish
weeklies, including the Jewish Chron-
icle of Baltimore, the Jewish Re-
Piltsburgh.

GERMAN IMPERIAL
ARCHIVES REVEAL KAISER’S
ROLE IN DREYFUS AFFAIR
(('opt inued f rom Page 1) *
u member of the embassy .stuff, who
hud bought the secret documents
from Esterhazy. Yet tho embassy,
in its communications to the chancel-
lor, contented itself merely with vig-
orous denials of having any knowl-
edge of Captain Dreyfus. Thus, on
December 13, 1894, a month after
the urrost Of Dreyfus, Count Muen-
ster, German ambassador at Paris,
wrote the chancellor: “About Captain
Dreyfus, no one in the embassy, not
even Col. von fh'hwnrtzkoppcn, had
ever known or hoard anything. The
whole thing is an invention.”
Col. von-,Schwartzkoppen himself,
in a letter published for tho first
time in the official transcripts of the
German archives, stated that "it has
not been possible for me, during the
nearly two' years that have elapsed
since the ease fTogan, to clear it up in
my own mind. I can only imagine
that a forged document was intro-
duced in evidence or that Drcyflis
actually attempted to institute rela-
tions, and that such writing was dis-
covered before it reached its desti-
nation.”
Under date of November 22, 1896,
he reported once more from Paris,
that the affair “continues as myste-
rious as over. From here it can
merely tie repeatedly reiterated that |
A. Dreyfus is absolutely unknown toj
this embassy here and that neither j
directly or through an intermediary,
did wo ever have relations with him,
and that an alleged document writ-
ten by Dreyfus and taken from the
German emhussy, which led to his
conviction, never existed at the em-
bassy.”
A letter from Mucnster to Chan-
cellor von Hohsnlohe, dated October
29, 1897, containing the statement,
4T have never myaelf doubted that
Dreyfus’ conviction was an injus-
tice,” was annotated by the emper-
or; “Ich auch nicht.” Similarly, the
emperor- annoted a report of Muen-
ster's of November 9, 1896, contain-
ing ncD-rences to Bernard Lazure’a
contention that Dreyfus’ conviction
'fcas brought about by illegal methods:
“Such view I entertained formerly,
and am still of that conviction.” On
account of this belief, declares Koh-
ler, the emperor warmly welcomed
Zola’s manifesto in January, 1$98,
on behalf of Dreyfus, and Reinach’s
work relating to the Dreyfus affair
contains evidence of the emperor’s
statements to that effect.
When, however, Esterhazy’s guilt
was publicly proclaimed by Senator
Scheurer-Kestner and others, the Ger-
man authorities immediately changed
their attitude, in an effort to shield
that co-conspirator of theirs. Muen-
stc'T wrote, on November 28, 189,7: “I
have from .the start taken the posi-
tion, and so advised my staff of the
embassy, that the entire matter does
not concern us, and does not further
affect us,” to which the kaiser added
the marginal comment: "Richtig.”
On September 29, 1898, three days
after the French ministerial council
had decided to agree to revision of
the Dreyfus court' martial's verdict,
von Ruelow cold-bloodedly instructed
the foreign office, of which he was
the head, as follows: “Our chief in-
terest in the Dreyfus affair is, as far
as possible, to remain out of it. A
Victory by the anti-reviBionists is not
to he desired, as that might lead to
a dictatorship, and tjiat to war
against us . . . On' thi* other hand,
it is hot to be desired that France,
through u quick und spectacular rep-
aration of Dreyfus, will at o.ncc gain
liberal and Jewish sympathies. The
best thing would be to have the af-
fair Continue its course, disrupt the
army and shock'Europe.”
The developments that followed led
to serious efforts by the French min-
istry, and also by I.abori, counsel for
Dreyfus, to induce Germany to aid
in clearing up the facts involved, but
the German authorities refuzed to
take any action. Labor! sent a per-
sonal telegram to the kaiser asking
that in the name of justice and
truth, his majesty permit Colpnel
Schwartzkoppen to testify personally.
The kaiser's annotations have been
preserved, characterizing this request
as “impudent” and “of course out of
the quqstion.”
Tho second court martial at
Rennes brought out a verdict of
“guilty with extenuating circum-
stances.” It is not improbable, says
Kohler, in his booklet, that the sec-
ond court martial would have reached
a,different culmination, had Germany
co-operated in the cause of justice in
the manner suggested by the French
ministry.
