First edition. Original paper stapled binding. 4to. 2 sheets of paper; 35.5 cm. A letter from the chairman of the National Committee to Combat Anti-Semitism to subscribers of the periodical COUNTER ATTACK urging them to sign the attached petition for Congress to adopt Representative Samuel Dicksteins House Concurrent Resolution 89: Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring) , That the Congress hereby express itself that anti-Semitism and other forms of hate propaganda directed against racial or religious groups, which arrays creed against creed, and race against race, is a potent weapon in the hands of the enemies of this country and of its institutions; that the spreading of this Hitlerite ideology destroys the unity of this Nation, creates discord among our people, and is a threat to our future peace and security. Whosoever conducts or participates in such propaganda is un-American and is undermining the foundations upon which our Nation was founded, therefore, there can be no place in the lives or thoughts of true Americans for such ideology. Also includes a space for donations to help finance the endeavor. Excellent displayable example of the attempt to extend democratic and anti-fascist ideals beyond the war into post-war America. Dickstein had been an ardent supporter of Jewish rights and Jewish refugees during the war. SUBJECT(S) : Petitions, Anti-Semitism, American history. OCLC lists no holdings worldwide.

1st edition. Original Blue and White Boards. 13 leaves plates ; 22 cm. In English. This is a poem about the Battle of Antietam written by a Jewish Union surgeon who served in the battle, and throughout the civil war. Mayer wrote the poem for the dedication of a monument established for his 16th Connecticut regiment. Although Jews had not been allowed to serve in the military throughout most of European history, they had played a role in the defense of their communities in North America since the 1600s Dr. Nathan Mayer joined the army as an assistant surgeon in a Connecticut regiment of volunteers. He soon became a full surgeon and served at many of the most important battles of the war. At Antietam, he used a farmhouse as a field hospital where he had some success using chloroform, an early anesthetic. The battle of Antietam was the bloodiest single-day battle in America History. In the poem, Mayer writes, To all who in this holy strife/Went forward with their sweet young life/Prepared to give. And let it show/Set high in noondays golden glow/Upon this verdant field of blood/That life is not the highest good/but higher, holier, sweeter far/Are lifes ideals. Like a star Mayer was later captured with his regiment and held by confederate troops for seven months.

Later Cloth. 8vo. XII, 141 pages. 22 cm. Photocopy, 1999. Authorized Facsimile. Thesis (Ph. D. ) - Pepperdine University, 1997. Includes bibliographical references (p. 125-130) . Contains14 tables and 16 figures. Studying Jewish executive women at Fortune 1000 companies provides a paradigm for business and community diversity policies. These individuals blend - and generally surpass - educational, family, community and religious imperatives of 3 female populations: American, Jewish, and executive. The investigation could thus measure interwoven American, traditional, and professional factors influencing career and personal decisions, and propose workplace and societal accommodations for this and other groups. The multidimensional method befitting this complex sample first examined primary and secondary texts to comprehend the interconnection of Judaic views about women and their work, Jewish and American historical forces, and contemporary religious and secular ideologies. The investigation then indexed responses to a survey, randomly distributed among Fortune 1000 executive women, assessing respondents' educational, familial, and spiritual backgrounds and commitments. These results, with some follow-up interviews, yielded a profile of the Jewish executive women. Lastly, the sample was statistically compared to American, Jewish, and executive women on points concerning corporate and community diversity conflicts. - Abstract. Subjects: Jewish women - United States. Women executives - United States. Women - Employment - United States. Businesswomen - United States. Businesswomen. Jewish women. Women - Employment. Women executives. OCLC lists 3 copies of facsimile (Harvard, Brandeis, Calif Lutheran) and one listing of the origianl (Pepperdine) . Institutional stamp on first endpage, otherwise clean and fresh.

231, [1] pages. 9.2" x 6.3". Waton (1871-1959) was a Jewish philosopher keenly interested in the works of Marx and Spinoza. In the Foreword, dated 1939, he states "I convinced myself that human society is irresistibly and inevitably moving towards state capitalism and fascism. Further reflection also convinced me that this social transformation would inevitably bring upon the Jews great suffering. How could the Jews face this world situation? This question occupied my mind for the last twelve years. At last I reached the conclusion which I embodied in a program for the Jews. When the Jews declared war against Nazi Germany and fascism (in 1933), I saw that as a suicidal policy. Thus passed more than five years of ever-increasing suffering for the Jews. When the situation became so grave that the Jews themselves began to realize the gravity of the situation, the Spinoza Institute of America asked me to formulate my program." On page 199 he adds "We have to face the fact that the Leader of the German people has no doubt in his mind that the Jewish problem is the centre of all problems, not merely in Germany, but in the world. It is useless to dismiss this as an illusion, because if it is, it demands explanation. But it is no illusion." Brilliant gilt lettering upon front board. Light external wear. Binding tight. Faint patches of soiling to boards. Occasional light pencil marginalia and underlining until page 21. Moderate age-toning to contents. It is left to readers to ponder the impact Waton's program could have had upon twentieth-century history. Book
