19445704 (1944). Original blank paper wrappers. 8vo. 64 pages. 21 cm. Reprinted in early 1944 for Jewish refugees in Switzerland with some additional notations. In Hebrew and German in parallel columns (with diacritic vowel marks under the Hebrew, and with Yiddish translation between Hebrew). Original 1938 title page, with verso 1944 German title page: Den jüdischen Flüchtlingen in der Schweiz; Zur Feier des [Pesakh]-Festes im Jahre 5704; überreicht vom Schweizerischen Israelitischen Gemeindebund. (For the Jewish Refugees in Switzerland; For the celebration of Pesakh in the year 5704; presented by the Swiss Federation of Jewish Communities). Copyright by Lehrberger & Co. of Frankfurt. A European-published hagada from the darkest period of the Holocaust, produced specifically for those feeling the inferno. During 1943 and 1944, the extermination camps were working at a furious rate to kill the hundreds of thousands of people shipped to them by rail from almost every country within the German sphere of influence, and by the spring of 1944, up to 8,000 people were being gassed every day at Auschwitz (USHMM, 2012). Passover 1944 began on April 8, the day that the roundups of the Jews of Carpatho-Ruthenia and northern Hungary started. On April 14, the last day of the Holiday, László Endre & László Baky (German-installed heads of the Ministry of the Interior) and Eichmann made the official decision to deport all the Jews of Hungary. With ten illustrations; an early 19th century German Orthodox Haggadah originally compiled by Wolf Heidenheim in 1822. Published for German-Jewish refugees in Switzerland under the auspices of the Swiss Federation of Jewish Communities, founded in 1904 to help protect the general interest of Jews in Switzerland; during the second world war, the Federation helped support the refugee community in Switzerland: Prior to and during the Second World War, Switzerland gave refuge to about 23,000 Jewish refugees although the government decided that Switzerland would serve only as a country of transit. These Jews were protected during the Holocaust due to Swiss neutrality. The Jewish refugees, however, did not receive the financial support from the government that non-Jewish refugees received. Many more Jews were prevented from entering, effectively shutting the border. (Jewish Virtual Library; Switzerland).

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.

19451ST Separate Edition. Original paper outside pages, no cover, as issued. 8vo booklet, 11+[1] pages. Reprinted from the Soviet Information Bulletin in Washington. Includes article Jew Baiting Must Be Wiped Out: No Mercy for Murderers, by Komarov, who was the most respected name in systematic botany in the USSR, ex-president of the Academy of Sciences, a deputy of the Supreme Soviet, and holder of the highest Soviet civil award-a Hero of Socialist Labour. Also contains smaller sections Conference of European Jewry, Fight for Humanity, Meeting of Jewish Communists, French Jews Reorganise, and Commentary. The general theme is uniting forces and countries to fight against antisemitism. From Komarovs article, To keep silence about this is to deliver our children to death. In this matter, if any country gives shelter to the Hitlerites or their ideas, in the shape of discriminatory legislation in the shape of racial organisation or racial Press, it is no longer an internal affair of that country. If your neighbour uncloses in his backyard a container with poison gases which threaten to spread over the entire town, you will not waste time by asking for permission to enter his backyard, you will do so to avert death for thousands of people. Racial ideas are more dangerous than any poison gas. It is our generations duty to the future, to the cause of the progress of civilisation and humanity, not only to put out the smoking fire of Fascism but to uncover and extinguish every smouldering coal of it.

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.

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.

19451st edition, Original photographic wrappers, 8vo, 28 pages plus 8 plates of photos. In Czech. Early pulication (1945) from just after liberation, documenting the Nazi Massacre at Lidice, Czechslovakia. On June 10, 1942 the village of Licide was totally destroyed by the members of the Ordnungspolizei and the SD (Sicherheitsdienst) in revenge for the assassination of Deputy Reich Protector of Bohemia and Moravia, Reinhard Heydrich on May 27, 1942. Soon after Heydrich's funeral, Hitler ordered that any town found to have hidden his killers was to be burned to the ground and leveled to the ground. All men over 16 were to be shot, women and children are to be sent to concentration camps with children who were suitable for "Germanisation" to be placed in SS families. The Nazis chose Lidice because its residents were suspected of harboring partisans and were falsely associated by aiding team members of "Operation Anthropoid" (code name for the assassination plot) . On June 10, 1942 Hitler's orders were carried out and Lidice and its citizens were obliterated. Light wear, expected toning to paper, margins of some photo plates are a bit wavy with stains, but are otherwise very good. (KH-9-12)
19381st edition. Original printed Publishers linen, 8vo, (5) , 283 pages. With 20 colored maps of countries and regions around the world, including one world map displaying distances from Berlin. Title translates as, Philo-Atlas: Guide for Jewish Emigration. Styled after the popular Philo Lexikon, this publication is a remarkable record of its time. Issued barely two weeks prior to the outbreak of Kristallnacht (9/10 November, 1938) , this appears as nothing but a tourist guide-book. Yet its contents reveal a far more urgent need: An alphabetical survey of countries world-wide with their respective rules for obtaining entry-visas. These are no tourist formalities, for now survival depends on them. Which countries still accept migrants? How much money do they demand? For which occupations is there a need? Which diseases need one be prepared for? Where to find local organizations who can assist immigrants? The Jewish owned Philo Verlag, was forcibly closed a month following the publication of this guide, by which time the Nazis decided they were no longer willing to permit Jews to leave Germany even if they could find a country willing to take them in, which after the Evian Conference of earlier that summer, was most unlikely. The Jews who remained in Germany were now quite trapped. Two copies sold at auction in 2018 for USD 1125 and USD 1375 each, with buyers premiums. Beautiful copy, near fine condition.

"The primary mission of the American (Jewish) Joint Distribution Committee (AJDC) in Europe, has been to rehabilitate and reestablish or resettle the remnants of European Jewry left by Hitler's Germany. In accomplishing this mission, it became very obvious in the days immediately following the war, that one of the most difficult legal problems preventing the reestablishment of European Jewry in their countries of nationality, or in other countries all over the world, was the problem of obtaining declarations of death in the several European countries. The related problem of obtaining recognition and faith and credit from courts of other nations all over the world offered even more difficulties. It was clear that there was no uniform method of issuing cleclarations of death, nor was there any uniform approach by the other nations to recognize declarations of death.

The latest Nazi atrocity, as this pamphlet goes to press, is the beheading of Rudolph Claus for the 'crime' of acting as treasurer of an organization which attempted to provide some measure of defense to anti-fascists facing trial, and financial assistance to imprisoned victims of fascism and their families…. The answer to the war program of the fascist incendiaries lies in the united action of the toiling masses, of all peace-loving people in this country as throughout the world.

Nevertheless it would be premature to say that such a historic achievement has come to nought. " (page 673) The second article discusses how the Catholic church is under attack, talking about how Catholic schools are shutting down, "Catholic publications are disappearing one by one, " and "Catholic manifestations, such as pilgrimages and processions, have been completely suppressed, " among other things. It is said, though, "But in spite of all this, it seems that the Church as a whole… has not suffered many great losses. " (page 641) Subjects: Church and state -- Germany -- History -- 20th century.
