The article discusses literary artist Israel Zangwill. According to average Jews, he is a great English writer who by virtue of his position has been able to render invaluable service to the Jewish race. It is the famous novelist and playwright whose aid Theodore Herzl seeks when he wishes to present the idea of Zionism, whom the Jews of Warsaw consult on the advisability of voting for certain candidates to the Russian Duma, into whose office Joseph Fels enters unannounced and unheralded with an offer of a hundred thousand dollars, and at whose request the American Jewish Congress, the most important Jewish organization in the world, changes its designated place of meeting from Baltimore to New York.
