Youth oriented pamphlet regarding the biblical history of Judas Maccabeus. Described internally as one of a series of pamphlets on Jewish History, Zionism, and the Jewish Festivals. Founded in 1909 Young Judaea drew its members from Jewish students. The original group was led by Emanuel Neumann. It formulated as its goals the advancement of the cause of Zionism; furthering the mental, moral, and physical development of Jewish youth; and the promotion of Jewish cultural ideas in accordance with Jewish tradition. It was affiliated with the Zionist Organization of America and published a journal, the Young Judaean, originally edited by Henrietta Szold . In 1940 it came under the jurisdiction of the American Zionist Youth Commission, a joint effort of Hadassah and the ZOA and in 1967 became the sole responsibility of Hadassah. The first settlers in Israel from the Young Judaea movement arrived during World War I, among them members of the Jewish Legion . At its peak of membership (1948) Young Judaea had over 30, 000 members, but along with other Zionist groups in the U. S. It suffered a decline in membership following the establishment of the State of Israel. Each year thousands of young people age 818 attend its clubs, conventions, activities, and six summer camps including Tel Yehudah, the movement's senior leadership camp in Barryville, New York.

1st Edition. Stapled, 4to. 22 pages ; 28 cm. Typescript (photocopy, as published) . "Presented at the Hearing of the Committee on Foreign Relations of the United States Senate on June 25, 1981." Professor Mallison was a longtime friend, and associate of Rabbi Elmer Berger. Together, they were able to win several concrete changes to US Foreign Policy, and shape the political narrative on Jewish-Arab relations in the middle east. It was because of his specialty in international law that he was sought out by Rabbi Elmer Berger, then director of the American Council for Judaism. The Council opposed the claim of the newly created State of Israel to speak for the Jewish People everywhere. Together Rabbi Berger and Professor Mallison persuaded the Department of State to write a letter stating that it does not regard the 'Jewish people' concept as a concept of international law.
