Russian Jews

After an attack like that, you should have stayed in the open like a man, but you went and hid like a coward.

Again, if you were of the people, truly and in the depths of you, and free to act as you pleased, why did you please to go to the richest hotels and sit with the bourgeois? Why, when the poverty-stricken Russian Jews, who and who alone have given nine-tenths of the money contributed to the Russian Revolution from America, when they wrote and told you your prices were too high for them to hear your lecture, did you answer, I am here to collect money, not to be stared at.

You would have had twice the money at half the price.

Have you then learned so soon the art of playing the lion at two-dollar banquets, and scorning the staircase whereby you climbed? It is said by your apologists, among them some of those who sat at the banquet with you, that your anomalous position was due, not to yourself, but to your having fallen into the hands of committees and lickspittles.
