Ze'ev Jabotinsky quoted in an article in the late 1920s, this story of a man, who visited Moscow: "Moscow is up to 200,000 Jews, all the alien element. Take A <...> phone book and see how it is full of Pevzners, Levins, Rabinovichs and others, as said the Soviet anti-Semites, hispanic names. Phone, - this evidence of either wealth or good service provision, - lists Commissariat officers, Foreign Trade, the Supreme Economic Council, controls the trusts are full of Jewish names."
And even among the Jews circulated anecdotes testifying to the strong "semitization" of the new government:
"If at the table are six commissioners, then what is under the table? - Twelve Knees of Israel."
"Tea is sold by Vysotsky, sugar - by Brodsky, Russia belongs to Trotsky."
"There is a meeting of the CPC. Suddenly Kamenev said that he had to hastily leave. Where? In the synagogue to pray commemoration of the dead father (which requires a minimum of ten adult Jews). Then Lenin said:" Why leave? I'll go out and you can make your prayer on the spot. "
The most monstrous of all stories, Vasilevsky told, was a story about how Frenkel, now publisher in Moscow, a Rabbi in the past (and probably now, only a secret), traveling by train from St. Petersburg to Moscow. This is one of the largest sites, which feeds the now dozens of Jews in Moscow, working in the printing business. He runs inferior, but the machine-established business in the heart of Moscow, and it is always buzzing like a beehive. Yard run in the Smiths alley, running away from it, are going. It is like a cancer in the breast. It is not known where the money of one jew end and where money is another jew begin. He often travels to St. Petersburg, and it is characteristic that he is escorted by a respectful jewish crowd, obviously he is and still gives advice about "the goat". He is wise.
