1942175578Circa1942. Small airborne propaganda leaflet printed on one side only featuring a colour illustration. Appears to have been dropped during the Malayan Campaign. 14.6 x 19.8 cm creased and marked on the reverse. Image still very clear and strong. Airborne colour propaganda leaflet urges the British troops to surrender to Japan. The rather oddly worded text reads: <br> <br>"Iron-rationed. Stranded. <br>Nothing but dog biscuits. <br>Day after day positively. <br>How about a dish of salad like this <br>For a change of diet. just a change of mind". <br> <br>The image shows three figures two of whom are identifiable as British soldiers in a desperate situation on a small piece of land possibly representing Singapore. In the distance their warships are burning. A plate of salad which dominates the image looks enticingly fresh and colourful albeit rather surprising that the Japanese military propaganda believed salad would motivate the soldiers to surrender! Similar messages published and dropped by the Allies were distributed to Japanese troops in Japanese towards the end of the Pacific War with the same aim in mind. <br> <br>Although we have not been able to identify the area depicted with absolute certainty we believe this leaflet was likely dropped during the Malayan Campaign rather than Guadalcanal as we have seen it attributed to. Our reasons for this include the leaflet showing British soldiers whereas American servicemen were primarily involved in Guadalcanal. The burning ships offshore seem to fit more with the sinking of the HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse particularly as only two are depicted and they are being destroyed by what seem to be land-based bombers not other ships or carrier-based aircraft. Likewise at the late stage in the Pacific War that the Guadalcanal Campaign took place Japan was no longer in a position where they could cope with POWs nor were they likely to be in a position to print colour leaflets or distribute them. <br> <br>Commonly airborne leaflets were used over land battles rather than in naval battles. . unknown

192285914Boston: Houghton Mifflin 1922. First American Edition. First printing. Published the same year in London Constable. Octavo; red cloth hardcover; xix308pp. Spine darkened with mild soil to covers; endpapers toned from old jacket offsetting; text generally clean and unmarked; just a VG copy lacking the dustwrapper. <br /> <br /> A low-point which is saying something in the corpus of British antisemitic propaganda masquerading as a disinterested examination of the "Jewish Problem" by the noted Franco-English Catholic writer and historian. In the most reasonable-sounding way Belloc puts forward an argument for the segregation of British Jews on the grounds that "the Catholic Church is the conservator of an age-long European tradition and that tradition will never compromise with the fiction that a Jew can be other than a Jew." Even in the context of pre-Hitlerian "passive" antisemitism it was and remains a foul little book albeit one that needs reading. SINGERMAN Antisemitic Propaganda 0129. Houghton Mifflin unknown

Unger" with 2 ink corrections. Attached is a typed single-spaced report on the 1934/35 Winterhilfswerk campaign filling a 2nd sheet of the same paper.

Very good. <p>Marta Unger writes in English to a Mr. B. von Schenk in Hoboken New Jersey thanking him for his letter. "I was interested to read the article by Mrs. Ruth Frances Woodsmall about 'Women in the new Germany'. I met Mrs. Woodsmall last summer and showed her myself our German women work. But it is rather difficult to explain to people that what we want if the otherside stands on a quite different standpoint". She encloses a typed article in English about "our Winter Help Campaign 1934/35".<p>Dr. Marta Unger was born in Japan in 1903 to an American mother. Her family settled in Heidelberg Germany in 1908. After working in the Foreign Ministry in Berlin from 1924-26 and obtaining a doctorate of law at the Johann-Wolfgang-Goethe University in Frankfurt she worked as a clerk in the Propaganda Ministry. In 1934 she was appointed head of the Foreign Affairs department of the Reichsfrauenfuhrung the post she held when she wrote this letter. In 1948 during the Wilhelmstrasse trial against German diplomats in Nuremberg Unger was part of the defense team of Ernst Woermann whom she later married. Woermann had been the ambassador to China.<p>The Winterhilfswerk was a program to help clothe feed and keep warm the needy during the winter months. An important part of its funding came from collection drives to which all good German citizens were expected indeed were relentlessly pressured to contribute. Unger's report shows the amounts spent on clothes and fuel and on bread flour potatoes and other staples. She also writes about the "godmother" program by which childless people would give meals clothes shoes and Christmas gifts to a needy child. Berlin: May 18th, 1935. hardcover
