Excerpt from Zionism It was with much pleasure that I accepted the mandate, Offered to me by The Jewish Publication Society of America, to contribute an essay on Zion ism as one of a series dealing with prominent Jewish movements. Whichever side of the ques tion appeals to us, we must all recognize that under the name Zionism a solution Of the Jewish problem has been presented which must be of much moment for the future of the Jewish people. I venture to think that it is the only solution and to hold that the weal or woe of our race depends upon our espousal or rejection of it. In saying so much, I am prac tically affirming my standpoint. I make no excuse for the trend of my thought.
