This pamphlet of 26 pages Is filled with stories of discrimination like these I have read. practiced by the public authorities against this particular race of human beings. This persecution is practiced against the Jews. not because of their religion but because of their race. The honorable Senator from South Carolina can be quoted in support of that statement. and yet. strange to say. that distinguished Senator is unwilling. and he says the committee over which he presides is unwilling. to add racial persecution to religious persecution as an exception to this literacy test. Is It persecution to collect from the Jews by force of law .onehalf or. in one instance. all the taxes needed and expended In support of the public schools and yet refuse their children the right to enjoy the use and benefits of those schools? Would that be called persecution if it were practiced in the District of Columbia or in the State of South Carolina or in the State of Massachusetts?
