19451st edition, original paper wrappers. 8vo, 8 pages. A sermon preached on New Years Morning, Saturday, September 8th, 1945 before Congregation Keneseth Israel of Allentown, Pennsylvania by Rabbi Braunstein, Ph. D. This sermon was preached before the release on Sept. 30, 1945 of Earl G. Harrisons Report to President Truman on the conditions of refugees and displaced persons in western Europe, and of the subsequent interchange of correspondence between the President and General Eisenhower. All of these strengthen and confirm the point-of-view expressed in this sermon. (page 8) Braunstein doesnt think that the Jews who fled should have to go back to their former homes. He says, The Intergovernmental Committee on Refugees, of which our Government is a member, recently declared that the Jewish D. P. will be given the opportunity to learn more about conditions in his country and give the governments more time to satisfy their nationals that they can return to their countries with the prospect of leading a healthy, normal life before reaching the conclusion that the person must be treated permanently as non-repatriable. These are elegant words to conceal the real decision of the Intergovernmental Committee on Refugees. That decision is this: Let the Jews cool off their heels in the German concentration camps until they realize they must return to their former homes. The simplest truth is that these Jews are afraid to return to their former homes. They who have cheated death for so many years at the hands of the Germans do not want to die at the hands of the Germans, do not want to die at the hands of their former co-citizens. And if their experiences in Poland and in Slovakia and elsewhere are any indication of how the wind is blowing, they have a right to fear. They have a right to refuse to return to their former homes. I have been wondering whether the late President Roosevelts promise of a world in which there would be freedom from fear will ever have meaning to the displaced Jews of Europe.

1947rif. 43409New York The Organization No Date 1947. 1st edition. Double-sided English-Yiddish leaflet 2 pages. The Yiddish header translates roughly as "An Announcement To the Jewish Public" Bilingual American Flyer condemning the Joint the American Joint Distribution Committee AJDC for not doing more to help the Jewish DPs and its "hiding" behind the German police when DP's demonstrated for more action on DP resettlement. The issuing organization the United Jewish Survivors of Nazi Persecution/Farband fun Geveyzene Yidishe Katsetler un Partizaner was the first survivor network founded in the US. Their Yiddish name translates as "The Association of Former Jewish Concentration Camp Inmates and Partisans." The word "Katsetler" in their name is a contraction of "kontsentratsyonslager-er" using the letters K and Z "ka" and "tset" and thus short for "kontsetratsyonslager" a concentration camp inmate or survivor sometimes also noted as a "katsetnik." The flyer announces: "Jewish blood was again shed on German soil! German police fought with remaining victims of Nazism. But this time the sad event was instigated by the prominent Jewish organization-The Joint Distribution Committee. What happened There remains today in Camp Foehrenwald near Munich about two thousand helpless forlorn and ill D.P's who miraculously escaped the extermination furnaces in nazi-occupied Poland and Hitler-Germany. Hungry desperate destitute men women and children the 'forgotten' Jews have been knocking at the doors of the democratic countries for a haven and refuge and a home they can call their own. With this goal in mind they demand immediate help from the Joint while in camp and help to establish themselves in their eventual homes in the countries that have offered refuge. But the Joint turned a 'deaf ear' toward their pleas. And when these disillusioned D.P.'s demonstrated before the offices of the Joint in Munich the German police in a previously planned attack critically wounded whipped and battered off the demonstrators. The Joint in Munich with the approval of the Joint in Paris asked the police to protect them against the Jewish D.P. demonstrators. We the survivors of Nazi-Germany now living in the United States cannot forget the extreme torments and the inferno of the nazi-torture; we who suffered with many victims now in Foch- renwald are horror-stricken and dismayed and our hearts cry out against the Joint for the brutality toward our helpless brethern in misfortune. We express our deep-felt sympathy toward our brothers in Foehrenwald. demand that the Joint representatives responsible for these brutal attacks on the D.P.'s by the German police be punished. In the name of humanity we beseech the Jews in the United States to let their voices be heard help these sick tragic and frustrated victims to find homes and a life of human dignity again" From the English side of the flyer. After World War II Munich served as a major center for Jewish Holocaust survivors the "Sh'erit ha-Pletah" who were living in DP camps. The "Joint" was the primary welfare organization providing aid clothing and food to these camps. While the Joint was a vital lifeline its Munich headquarters at Siebertstrasse 3 sometimes became the focal point for frustration regarding the pace of aid distribution or more frequently the slow pace of emigration to Palestine Aliyah and broader often frustrating postwar conditions. Following the 1947 Exodus ship incident where Jewish refugees were returned to Germany by the British Jewish DPs felt trapped and staged intense demonstrations including protests at the offices of international organizations like the Joint to highlight their despair. These demonstrations were part of a broader effort by survivors to assert their agency and demand rights during their time in Munich 1945-1951. For more on tensions between Munich's Jewish DPs and the Joint see www.juedisches-museum-muenchen.de/en/exhibitions/munich-displaced-online/moehlstrasse. Scholar David Slucki notes about the publishers of this leaflet that "Within months of arriving in the United States in 1946 Jewish Holocaust survivors began to organize themselves to help with the process of resettlement. The small band of socialists who established the Farband fun Geveyzene Yidishe Katsetler un Partizaner United Jewish Survivors of Nazi Persecution this group initiated a dual process of identity formation and memorialization of the Holocaust. The first survivor network founded in the United States the Katsetler Farband this group developed a memorial culture that included commemorations and publications replete with its own rituals and calendar. Moreover the organization was part of a broader process of defining what experiences constituted the Holocaust and who was to be considered a survivor. Ultimately they were among a host of survivor networks in the United States to lay the foundation for Holocaust memorialization" Slucki D. 2017.

19761st Edition. Original Paper Wrappers. 8vo. 8 pages ; 23 cm. In English. From the 3rd Annual Sol Feinstone Memorial Lecture series at West Point. This lecture given by Pulitzer Prize winning novelist and writer Herman Wouk. Wouk served in the Navy in the Pacific Theater of WWII. He addresses the west point graduates about The Meaning of Freedom, concluding, In the last five years, working on The Winds of War Ive spoken three times: to the Naval Academy, to the Naval War caollege, and now to the United States Military Academy. It isnt because Im a militarist. Im not intrigued by the romance of war. Let me make this plain to you. In my view war is a massive criminal absurdity I believe, heart and soul, that in days to come it will fade from the minds of men and nations as a possible way to behave. That is what Im trying to say in my books. OCLC lists only one copy worldwide (Westpoint) .

On January 3, 1938, Roosevelt founded the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, now known as the March of Dimes The organization initially focused on the rehabilitation of victims of paralytic polio, and supported the work of Jonas Salk and others that led to the development of polio vaccines. (Wikipedia, 2017) This memorial program was Chaired by Congressman Sol Bloom, the influential Jewish Congressman from New York. In the run-up to World War II, he took charge of high-priority foreign-policy legislation for the Roosevelt Administration, including authorization for Lend Lease in 1941. (Wikipedia, 2017) . Though FDR was open about his Polio, he also tried to downplay it; this is an unusually public connection of FDR and Polio: FDR requested that the press avoid photographing him walking, maneuvering, or being transferred from his car. The stipulation was accepted by most reporters and photographers but periodically someone would not comply. The Secret Service was assigned to purposely interfere with anyone who tried to snap a photo of FDR in a disabled or weak state (FDR Presidential Library, 2017) . OCLC lists no copies anywhere. Creased and worn, with a few small tears and some discoloration. Good condition. Very Rare and significant publication linking FDR, Polio, American Political Leadership, and American Jewish Life.

No Date (1933? ) . 1st edition. Folded 1 leaf pamphlet. Unfolded 11x17 inches. Red and blue color, 12 photographs and illustrations in blue ink. The Non-Sectarian Anti-Nazi League to Champion Human Rights has opposed Nazism since 1933 when it began the boycott of German goods and services in America. By means of the boycott it is stopping millions of American dollars from going to Germany to be utilized for Nazi world-propaganda, to be converted into armaments for world war. By means of its educational campaign the League is arousing enlightened men and women to the need of defending our ideals. And (sic) institutions of our democratic government. These efforts to destroy Nazism in the United States also serve to aid the German people in their struggle for liberation. There is a section, Warnings vs. Nazism, which has quotes from President Roosevelt, Pope Pius XI, Sir Walter M. Citrine, The Nation, George II. Earle, William E. Borah, Fiorello H. LaGuardia, George W. Norris, George Cardinal Mundelein, Dorothy Thompson, and Dr. Paul Hutchinson about the dangers of Nazism. There is also a quote from Franklin D. Roosevelt under the title The Threat to Peace, in which he says There can be no peace if humble men and women are not free to think their own thoughts, to express their own feelings, to worship God.

Erste Ausgabe der ersten Buchveröffentlichung Wiesenthals, zugleich eines der ersten gedruckten Berichte eines KZ-Überlebenden. Als Häftling im Konzentrationslager Mauthausen arbeitete Wiesenthal auf dem Todesblock - unbemerkt von den Nazi-Schergen - an Skizzen und Zeichnungen, die einem Ziel dienen sollten: die Weltöffentlichkeit nach dem Ende der Naziherrschaft und der Befreiung der Konzentrationslager darüber zu informieren, was sich hinter deren Mauern und dem Stacheldraht zugetragen hat. Wiesenthal brauchte für seine Arbeiten nicht viel mehr als einen Bleistiftstummel und etwas Papier. Bildfragmente aus Nazi-Magazinen, wie sie in Papierkörben zu finden waren, baute er nach dem Krieg als optische Zitate in seine Collagen ein, und auch die Texte zu den Bildern entstanden erst im Zuge der Vorbereitungen zur Veröffentlichung des vorliegenden Buches. Infolge der kleinen Auflage war das Werk bald vergriffen und geriet in Vergessenheit, außerdem waren in der Zeit des beginnenden Kalten Krieges Bücher über Nazi-Greuel nicht weiter gefragt...
