REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR-GENERAL TO THE GENERAL COUNCIL OF THE INTERNATIONAL REFUGEE ORGANIZATION, 1 JULY 1948-30 JUNE 1949

19491st edition. Original photographic paper wrappers, 8vo, 87 pages. Includes many photos and graphs. Cover title is International Refugee Organization, 1948-1949. The International Refugee Organization (IRO) was founded on 20 April 1946, and took over the functions of the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration, which was shut down in 1947. While the handover was originally planned to take place at the beginning of 1947, it did not occur until July 1947. The International Refugee Organization was a temporary organization of the United Nations (UN) , which itself had been founded in 1945, with a mandate to largely finish the UNRRA's work of repatriating or resettling European refugees. It was dissolved in 1952 after resettling about one million refugees. The definition of a refugee at this time was an individual with either a Nansen passport or a Certificate of identity issued by the International Refugee Organization. The Constitution of the International Refugee Organization, adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on 15 December 1946, specified the agency's field of operations. Controversially, this defined "persons of German ethnic origin" who had been expelled, or were to be expelled from their countries of birth into the postwar Germany, as individuals who would "not be the concern of the Organization. " This excluded from its purview a group that exceeded in number all the other European displaced persons put together. Also, because of disagreements between the Western allies and the Soviet Union, the IRO only worked in areas controlled by Western armies of occupation (Wikipedia 2016) . SUBJECT(S) : Political refugees. World War, 1939-1945 -- Refugees. No copies listed on OCLC Worldcat. Light Wear Very Good Condition. Rare. (holo2-132-6)

FUN LETSTEN CHURBN [FUN LETZTEN KHURBAN / KHURBN / CHURBAN] : TSAYTSHRIFT FÜR GESHIKHTE FUN YIDISHN LEBN BETN NATSI-REZSHIM. FROM THE LAST EXTERMINATION: JOURNAL FOR THE HISTORY OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE DURING THE NAZI REGIME. Nr. 1 AUGUST 1946

1946Small 8vo; First Edition. Paper Wrappers, 4to (Large), 36 pages. One of 8000 issued. In Yiddish with English Cover, table of contents, & photo captions. Important journal lasting 10 issues which written & published by Jewish DPs themselves to document crimes and survival in the Holocaust. The publisher's decision to include the English table of contents, probably in part to insure the journal's use in future war crimes trials, makes these first hand accounts especially user-friendly today, almost 60 years later. Robinson & Friedman #1247: "The Historical Commission [was] established in 1945 under the auspices of the Central Committee of Liberated Jews in the U. S. Zone. [It] Ceased operations early in 1949. Details of the activities of the Munich center can be found in No. 1247 [Fun Letsten Churbn]..." Hagit Lavsky notes in the Encyclopedia of the Holocaust (Gutman, ed., 1990, p. 383) that, "Commemoration and documentation projects [by Jewish DPs] included the work of the Tsentraler Historisher Komisiye (Central Historical Commission), established in December 1945 by the Central Committee in Munich, to assist in bringing Nazi criminals to trial. A network of regional committees was set up under the commission's auspices whose task it was to take evidence and collect documentary material, including material on DPs. In August 1946, the commission published the first issue of the monthly FUN LETZTEN HURBAN." Published under DP-Publications License US-E-3 OMGB, Information Control Division. This first issue is the only large magazine-size issue published, and remains the scarcest of the set. This copy fragile, with original blue detached edgeworn wrappers mounted on attached later paper for stabilization. Paper is somewhat fragile, but complete and usable. Fair condition, complete.
