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

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

1958055782Cairo: The USSR Embassy Press Office in the United Arab Republic UAR 1958. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Contemporary full green cloth in Egyptian style contemporary white endpapers gilt lettering of title on front board and gilt decorations on spine. Original pictorial cover saved inside. Roy. 8vo. 24 x 17 cm. In Arabic. 88 p. 12 b/w ills. including drawings and reproduced photographic plates. Extremely rare unrecorded first issue of this Soviet propaganda organ published in Cairo the centre of the UAR by the USSR Propaganda Press Office with a striking cover design depicting the Sputniks in space celebrating the third anniversary of the Kosmicheskaya programma SSSR. The content begins with a comparison between the Soviet and American satellites. A full-paged photograph shows the Muscovites reading newspapers about the launch of the third Soviet satellite into space. In the periodical many details such as the construction processes and technical specifications of the satellites are explained as well as a striking history of the Soviet Space Program. Relations between Russia and Egypt have a long history dating back to before the 16th century. In the 1950s Gamal Abdel Nasser's independent and anti-imperialist policy earned him enthusiastic support from the Communist government of the USSR. In 1955 Egypt made a major arm deal with the Soviet Union and from then teams of Egyptian officers were trained in Eastern Bloc countries. Czechoslovak instructors also came in 1956 to train Egyptian personnel in the use of Soviet weapons. When France attacked Egypt during the Suez Crisis the USSR threatened to use destructive weapons i.e. nuclear weapons for the defence of Egypt. The degree of the Soviet approval of the Egyptian leader's policies culminated rather controversially in the award of the highest Soviet decoration the star of the Hero of the Soviet Union with the Order of Lenin to Nasser during Nikita Khrushchev's visit to the country in 1964. Kosmicheskaya programma SSSR i.e. The Soviet Space Program was the national space program of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics USSR active from 1955 until the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. After WWII the Soviet and US space programs both utilized German technology in their early efforts. Eventually the program was managed under Sergei Korolev who led the program based on unique ideas derived by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky sometimes known as the father of theoretical astronautics. Contrary to its American European and Chinese competitors who had their programs run under a single coordinating agency the Soviet space program was divided and split among several internally competing design bureaus led by Korolev Kerimov Keldysh Yangel Glushko Chelomey Makeyev Chertok and Reshetnev. The Soviet space program served as an important marker of Soviet claims to its global superpower status. Wikipedia.
