194322120ELondon: Victor Gollancz 1943. First Edition. Original paper wrappers. Staplebound 8vo 16 pages. Very good copy with some minor age toning and handling. During World War II in response to what would later be called the Holocaust in Britain in March 1943 William Temple as Archbishop of Canterbury joined Ernest Henry Lamb Lord Rochester in this historical speech before the House of Lords outlining ongoing atrocities within the Nazi regime and calling for the British government to develop plans to resettle Jewish refugees with great haste and urgency. Temple concludes his powerful speech with this: “My chief protest is against procrastination of any kind. The Jews are being slaughtered at the rate of tens of thousands a day on many days. We know that what we can do is small compared to the magnitude of the problem but we cannot rest so long as there is any sense among us that we are not doing all that might be done. We have discussed the matter on the footing we are not responsible for this great evil but it is always true that the obligation of decent men are decided for them by contingencies which they themselves did not create. We stand at the bar of history of humanity and of God.†William Temple 1881 - 1944 was a bishop in the Church of England serving as Bishop of Manchester from 1921 - 29 Archbishop of York from 1929-42 and Archbishop of Canterbury from 1942-44 dying while in office. Much of his work as a leader in the church revolved around social reform and he is perhaps best remembered for his book Christianity and Social Order 1942. Ernest Henry Lamb 1st Baron Rochester 1876 - 1955 was a British Liberal and National Labour politician who served as Paymaster-General from 1931 to 1935 in the National Government of Ramsay MacDonald. He served as a Methodist lay preacher for many years and like Temple was involved in social reform and philanthropic activities. Victor Gollancz unknown books

189160747Portland OR & Ilwaco WA: Ilwaco Railway & Navigation Co. McAlpin & Lamb W. Morrison July 1891. Oblong albumen photo sized 9.5 x 7 in. mounted on cream-coloured studio board sized 8 x 10 in. slight curving still a superb exemplar from the library of from the library of Caroline Augusta Gray Kamm 1840-1932 noted socialite and philanthropist in Portland built home for poor women & girls with the YWCA and was daughter of PNW pioneer William H. Gray 1810-1889 who traveled to the Lapwai Mission in Lewiston ID in 1836 where he was the Nez Perce secular agent and she subsequently later married Jacob Kamm 1823-1912 pioneering Oregon steamship builder industrialist entrepreneur and co-owner/operator of the Ilwaco Railway & Navigation Co. This outstanding original albumen photo was issued as a promotion for the Ilwaco Railway & Navigation Co. and the soon-to-be-launched Sidewheeler Ocean Wave. Designed by Jacob Kamm the Ocean Wave was 180 feet long 29 feet at the beam and depth of hold at 9 feet with a much larger deck which was cantilevered out to accommodate the side-wheeler configuration and grossed 725 tons. She was powered by two James Rees & Co. steam engines 24 foot sidewheels fitted with 10 foot planks over 10 feet long and capable of 18 miles per hour. She included enough state room accommodations for 115 passengers and berths for 75 more. Her first captain was Lester Bailey and the Ocean Wave was a vital link to the short narrow gauge railroad on the Long Beach Peninsula which transported vacationers from Portland to Ilwaco WA with a stop in Astoria. In 1897 Kamm’s co-owner of the IR &N maneuvered to lease out the Ocean Wave to the Columbia River & Puget Sound Navigation Co. “White Line†to compete with Kamm’s Vancouver Transportation Co. then operated on the Puget Sound from 1897 to 1899 and finally as a ferry operating in San Francisco Bay from 1899 to 1911 and was the first ferry placed in service by the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe Railway.
