The Epidemic of Sexually-Transmitted Diseases

For many years, together with the political and moral disease infecting the nation, syphilis had been attacking the public health of the people.

In large cities, particularly, it steadily increased and tuberculosis kept pace with it in reaping its harvest of death almost in every part of the country.

In the case of syphilis especially, the State’s attitude was of absolute capitulation.

Our solution is to attack the disease in its causes rather than in its symptoms.

The primary cause is how love has been prostituted.

Even though this did not directly bring about the fearful disease itself, the nation must still suffer serious damage thereby, for t

The moral havoc resulting from this prostitution can destroy the nation, slowly but surely.

This Judaizing of our spiritual life and mammonizing of our natural instinct for procreation will sooner or later work havoc with our whole posterity.

These Jewish reproductive habits are caused by:

• social pressure and
  • This leads to inherited debility.
• financial considerations.
  • This leads to adulteration of the blood-strain.

This is because all the Jewish daughters of the department store owners are looked upon as eligible mates to co-operate in propagating His Lordship’s stock. And the stock certainly looks it.

All this leads to absolute degeneration. Nowadays our bourgeoise are making efforts to follow in the same path.

There are many ways of becoming resigned to this unpleasant and terrible fact. Many people go about seeing nothing or, to be more correct, not wanting to see anything.

This is by far the simplest and cheapest attitude to adopt.

This will be the final upshot of the whole situation. The present is a period of probation for racial values.

The race that fails to come through the test will simply die out and its place will be taken by the healthier and stronger races, which will be able to endure greater hardships.

This problem primarily concerns posterity, it belongs to that category of which it is said with terrible justification that the sins of the fathers are visited on their offspring unto the tenth generation.

This is a consequence which follows on an infringement of the laws of blood and race.

What was done to put an end to the contamination and mammonization of sexual life among us?

What was done to fight the resultant spreading of syphilis throughout the whole of our national life?

The whole country should have been alerted on this terrible danger, so that every individual would realize the importance of fighting against it.

It would be futile to impose obligations of a definite character–which are often difficult to bear–and expect them to become generally effective, unless the public be thoroughly instructed on the necessity of imposing and accepting such obligations.

This demands a widespread and systematic method of enlightenment and all other daily problems that might distract public attention from this great central problem should be relegated to the background.

To wage war against syphilis means fighting against:

• prostitution
• prejudice
• old-established customs
• current fashion
• public opinion
• false prudery in certain circles.
