1935Original printed wrappers. 4to. 11 pages. 30cm. In German. Compact tabloid format internally, with broadsheet printed covers. Title translates as The Curse and Inescapable Destiny of the Jews. Written by Kurt Reiss, under the pseudonym Abraham Cohen. This Antisemitic, millenarian polemic situates itself alongside the numerous Antisemitic conspiracy theories clinging to the fringes of early Nazi propaganda, a kind of millenialist Nazi-Zionism that calls for the Jews to be returned to Palestine to bring about the second coming of Jesus. In this piece, Reiss celebrates Hitler as the latest confirmation that the Jews are the chosen people, and sees Hitler as a guide and shepherd that will prevent the assimilation of the Jewish people and help bring them to Palestine to facilitate the final salvation. Kurt [Reiss] left school at the age of 15 and developed an interest in religion. He believed that the Jews should recognize Jesus Christ as their Messiah. He also attempted to secure patents for mechanical inventions. Kurt convinced the family to emigrate to Canada. According to a family member Kurt suffered from mental illness. He was unable to work and spent his days writing notes about his daily activities and his religious ideas. His sister Lola always took care of him.

19361st separate edition. 8vo. [1] page. Reprinted from Accrington Observer & Times. Chief Rabbi Prof. Israel Abrahams of The Great Synagogue, Cape Town, South Africa, was the Chief Rabbi of the United Council of Orthodox Hebrew Congregations (Cape Province and South West Africa ) and also Northern Rhodesia, from 1937 to 1968, after which he and his wife made Aliyah to Israel. He was the head of the department of Jewish Studies at The University of Cape Town. He was one of the founders of Herzlia School. In South Africa he wrote several books of sermons including Pathways in Judaism, Living Waters and The Birth of a Community - a history of Western Province Jewry from its earliest times to the end of the South African War, 1902. He translated the scholarly works of Prof Umberto Cassuto from Hebrew to English, both while in South Africa and later in Jerusalem. In Israel he went on to translate works by Prof Urbach and others, until his death after a short illness in October 1973. Chief Rabbi Prof Abrahams was born in Vilna and came to London as a small child, where he later received his Rabbinic Ordination from Jews College. He received his degrees at University of London. He came to Cape Town after serving as the Rabbi of the Great Synagogue in Manchester. (telfed.org) Abrahams was responding to an article in which some facts said by Coun. John Wilson and Mr. Barnes were inaccurate and anti-Semitic. He refutes that claims that In the post-war [ie post WW I] years Germany was over-run by Jews from Russia and Poland, and that some 90 per cent of the official posts in the country were occupied by Jews. He does not take an attacking tone, rather stating that, It is a thousand pities that Councillor Wilson and Mr. Barnes did not take the trouble to verify all their facts before giving their impressions Press publicity. British sympathy should be extended to the Jew, who is the helpless victim in Germany and the convenient scapegoat for all its tribulations, not to Hitler, the aggressor who has shown neither Christian charity, nor a sense of ordinary justice and humanity in his persecution of a community that has not only lived in Germany since earliest times, but has performed yeoman service in its countrys behalf.

Includes form for membership. "These aspects of Fascism are beginning to develop here [in the US]. Our National Recovery program is concentrating authority in the hands of the executives. But the facts of wages, prices, the administration of the codes and the labor boards show that the real power is being concentrated still more in the hands of the most powerful and repressive monopolistic groups of financiers and industrialists. All the resources of the state are being used in the attempt to restore the broken down capitalist system. Again both labor and capital are being regulated. But increasingly, the right to strike, the only real defense of labor, is being taken away, and the alleged protection of the government substituted for it. But in the agencies of government which are supposed to administer this protection, labor finds the employers and their representatives entrenched in power. This taking away of the resistance power of labor is an infallible sign of Fascism. " Subjects: Fascism -- United States.
