flew from Washington and New York TAFT ONCE TRIED TO RESIST JEWS-AND FAILED 207 to every part of the United States, and the Jewish “nagging’’ drive began. It had a center in every city. It was focused on every Representative and Senator— no official, however, was too mean or unimportant to be drafted.
American editors may remember that drive; it was operated on precisely the same lines as the one which is proceeding against the press today. The Jews have furnished absolute proof in the last two months that they control the majority of the American press.

Jacob Schiff had said on February 15, “This means war. ’ ’ He had ordered a large sum of money used for that purpose. The American Jewish Committee, B’nai B’rith and others of the numerous organizations of Jewry (how well organized they are the signatories of the recent Jewish defense prove) went to work and on December 13 of the same year—almost 10 months to a day after Jewry had declared war on President Taft’s conclusions—both houses of Congress ordered President Taft to notify Russia that the treaty with Russia would be terminated.
