19491st edition. Original paper wrappers. 8vo, 197 pages. Compiled by the Office of General Counsel European Headquarters American Joint Distribution Committee. "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.

19351st edition. Original illustrated paper wrappers. 8vo, 46+1 pages. Early Nazi period (1935) discussion of the 7th National Socialist Reichsparteitag [Nazi Party Day] in Nuremberg. "It is not only that the internal policies of the Hitler regime, the suppression of all labor organizations, the murderous terror against the revolutionary and progressive workers, the persecution of Jews, Catholics and Protestants, outrage the sense of fairness and justice of all victims of exploitation, of all liberty-loving people. 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. The answer to 'Hitler against the world' must be 'the world against Hitler'. This is the only way to prevent a new world war" (From the introduction, ) Subjects: National socialism.

Contains two articles, Concordat Between the Holy See and Germany (1933) , originally printed in the Australasian Catholic Record, and The Church Under the Swastika (1939) , originally printed in The World Problem. The first article talks about the details of the Concordat, concluding that, "The events of the past five years have not justified the sanguine hopes for the progress of the Church which were entertained by many when the historic agreement was signed by His Eminence Cardinal Eugene Pacelli (who is now Pope Pius XII) and Herr Franz Von Papen as Plenipotentiaries of the Holy See and the German Reich respectively. 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.

It also acknowledges that Norway has had it better than other European countries, saying, "From the beginning, it must be remembered, Norway was more privileged than most other countries occupied by the Germans- thanks to the Hitlerian faith in 'Nordic Superiority.

19351st edition. Trifold pamphlet. 8vo, [4] pages. Early Nazi-era publication distributed by the American League Against War and Fascism, with warnings primarily for the US. 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.

Visser 't Hooft; translated into English by Tilly Weinstock. "[I]t is not too soon to hear the witness which the Church in Holland has borne during these last years of suffering. For its message is not just meant for the Dutch people; the Church speaks as a member of the Church Universal. Its task during the war is to hold a particularly exposed outpost of the united front. And during this time of struggle it has received gifts which it wishes to pass on to the sister-churches also. The purpose of this publication, therefore, is to let the Church speak for itself. The main contents of these pages are documents in which the Church comforts, teaches, admonishes and protests. These documents have to be read carefully. They are precious, for those who composed them and those who read them for the pulpit were in great danger and risked much when giving this witness.

"With a dignity and restraint that seem almost superhuman this note by Foreign Commissar Molotov sets forth fresh proofs of the subhuman savagery of the Hitlerites. In previous notes to the United Nations Molotov has presented documentary evidence of the fiendish atrocities visited on Soviet citizens in the Nazi-occupied areas. In this one he gives details of the manner in which millions of Soviet citizens are driven into slavery…. As they systematically lay waste the Russian towns and villages during occupation or retreat, the German marauders simultaneously seek to enslave or destroy all of the Soviet people who fall into their clutches. The majority of able-bodied citizens, young and old, men and women, girls and boys, are forcibly shipped into Germany. Those who resist are murdered. The rest are packed like cattle into railroad cars. Those who sicken on the awful journey are thrown out. The railroad embankments are littered with their bodies all the way.
