19901st edition, original wrappers, 4to, 28 cm. [8] pages. Includes two articles by Rosenthal: 45 years after the liberation of Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen and The unvanquished sector of the Warsaw Ghetto: its school system. He talks about the Jewish Demands After the Holocaust, saying that [t]he Jewish approach was different. The Jews did not confine their demands merely to emigration; they connected them with the complex questions of Jewish national homelessness. Their demand was not limited to socio-economic assistance; they wanted a deeper look into the causes which had decimated the Jewish people to a degree and in a manner never before experienced by any other people in the world. In short, they did not present the international community with another refugee problem, or a Jewish Displaced Persons problem, but rather with the problem of the security of the entire Jewish people as revealed by the Holocaust. They sought a national-historical meaning for the Jewish fate during this period- and they found it in the struggle for the establishment of the State of Israel.

1944First edition. Original paper wrappers. 8vo. 11 pages; 20cm. Holocaust-era speech by Judge Morris Rothenberg, President of the Jewish National Fund of America, about the Jewish immigration achievements since 1882 in Palestine as well as the goals for future purchase and cultivation of land. Sir John Hope-Simpson, Vice-President of the British Refugee Settlement Committee and author of the Hope Simpson Report, had declared in the 1930s that all the all the available land was then already under cultivation and the rest comprised irreclaimable soil. The desperate needs of the Jewish people, the determination and ingenuity of the Yishuv have exploded this expert assertion. The Jewish population of Eretz Israel has more than doubled since that erroneous opinion was uttered and served as the basis for the White Paper of 1931, now lying in the waste basket of history.
