19401st Separate Edition. 6 X 13 Inches : Text Front and Back, accompanied by a photo of Gruen. Reprinted from The American Hebrew, November 1, 1940. By the 1930s, significantly-sized Jewish communities had grown up around farming towns like Farmingdale, New Jersey. The farmers built synagogues and community centers, held religious services, and celebrated Jewish holidays together. During the Depression, they raised money to help those in need, and during the years of World War II, they collected money, knitted, and sent care packages to Jews overseas. They also absorbed some of the Displaced Persons who arrived in the U. S. And were willing to work on farms. Indeed, some of these D. P. S even established their own farms, with the help of the Jewish Agricultural Society. Oscar Gruen was himself a recently arrived European refugee and was the Associate Publisher and Editor of the American Hebrew at the time of this articles publication. Gruen (1890-1953) was also the founding editor of the first Jewish news bureau, the Juedische Pressezentrale, which published a weekly edition in Zurich from 1917 to 1940. Grün began the Pressezentrale in the wake of World War I in order to counteract what he saw as international agitation against Jews. In 1919, Grün was a member of the committee which, under the leadership of Louis Marshall, presented the Jewish case to the Paris Peace Conference and secured the inclusion of the "minority rights clause" in the various constitutions of the newly established states in Central Europe. As editor of one of the worlds leading Jewish periodicals, Grün witnessed firsthand many of the most important Jewish-related events of the time, including the 20th Zionist Congress (1937) and the Evian Conference (1938) .

19451st Edition. Original photographic Yellow paper wrappers, 12mo, 47 pages. Includes illustrations (portrait, facsimiles) . 21 cm. In the original Flemish. Inscribed by Hakker in 1945 on the first page. Ehri (2014) writes that This is an eyewitness account by a Jewish survivor who escaped from a deportation train after departure from this transit camp.....The Belgian army barracks named Dossin de Saint-Georges, built in the town of Malines in 1756, were transformed into a Sammellager (Assembly Camp) on July 25, 1942. The first Jews who had received call-up orders arrived two days later, and the first train to Auschwitz left on August 4. This building was chosen for two reasons. It was right next to a railroad and Malines is located between Brussels and Antwerp, where 90% of the Jews in Belgium lived. After the roundups started, the Jews were taken by trucks to the inner square inside the barracks where armed SS were awaiting them. After being registered and stripped of their identity papers and last personal possessions, the prisoners had to wear a card around their neck with their number for the next deportation train. There were various categories of prisoners, the biggest of which were those marked for direct deportation. The barracks could house 1, 000 persons, but at times more than 1, 700 were crammed into them, with about 100 people on bunk beds in dormitories only about 21 to 7 meters wide. Later, they had to sleep on straw bags on the floor. The guard duty on the perimeter was done by Flemish SS members, supervised by German Security Police.
