Charles Moyer produced a letter written by Pound in which he made complimentary remarks about a Jewish author. So how do we read such a letter (one of two or three positive statements listed on this discussion group, as "evidence" of Pound's alleged tolerance of Jews)? Should it not be examined in the light of Pounds hundreds of anti-jewish statements? Here is one of the hundreds contained in the radio broadcasts, which I mentioned before. This is the exact quote and reference, if you want to look it up. "The two oriental races which are not yet bekiked are the Japanese and the Chinese." (Doob, 253). Forgive me for asking this, if I have done so before. Others have answered "yes", but I wonder if you, Charles Moyer, have taken the time to read the Radio Broadcasts, and noted the anti-semitic attitudes present in those speeches. If you have, I do not see how you would venture to imply that Pound was not pro-Hebrew, in light of the VERY FREQUENT anti-Jewish statements he made over the air, including his attempts to exhort listeners to a new anti-Jewish "pogrom"? Of course, there is the explanation that Pound simply lost his sense of humor while making such speeches. Perhaps one of Pound's relatives was at fault, specifically his Auntie Semitizm.
