Original wrappers. 9"x 6", 6pp. Provenance: Library of Congress, with their stamp on rear wrapper, and small 10mm perforated "LC" on the front cover bottom. G/VG ("Drouth"="drought".) It seems as though there are 2,000 souls in Arapahoe today; in 1940 there were 1,000 people--so, not tiny, but not very large. Rare. [++] "PREFACE. The author of this pamphlet, though a native of Minnesota, has lived in the Republican River Valley of Nebraska, since the fall of 1900, and was a Farmer until bad years, and the depression got him to where he could no longer farm. He feels that he understands conditions in the Great Plains States, and he is quite certain that the people of these states, or a very large part of them, will agree with him when they read this pamphlet and think it over. He hopes to unite the people on a plan that will make these states a comparatively green, and fertile land, instead of becoming a desert, as it has threatened to in the past eight or ten years. This writer admits that Earth Quakes, Tornadoes, Blizzards, and Hail Storms are disasters beyond Man's control, and probably always will be. But he is just as certain that drouth and floods can be controlled, to a large extent, by united effort of the people. He does not wish to appear conceited, nor claim to know more than others, but he has given this matter considerable thought, and he is hardly content to finish this life without letting the people know of his ideas.".

NO COPIES listed in WorldCat. The Littleport Society UK (WWII collection) refers to the pamphlet being published in 1943. The pamphlet gets right down to business discussing the Casablanca Conference where FDR met with Churchill and their advisors one of the major results being the announcement that the Allies would accept nothing less than total victory and unconditional surrender of the Axis forces. (Just for the record the pamphlet quotes the opening day of the conference which took place 14-24 January 1943 in discussing unconditional surrender though the announcement is made 24 January 1943.) There was much else decided of tactical and strategic importance deceided there, of course the island-hopping switch in the Pacific, the new invasion of Sicily, preparation for the cross-Channel invasion, for example but for the purposes of understanidng the context of this pamhlet, the unconditional surrender part was pretty big. (Some have argued that it could have created some harm, too, feeding into Nazi propaganda that the German forces fight to the last man and not surrender because of the implied terrors of the "unconditional" part of surrender.).

(There is a note on the back of the cover, given to the Library of Congress from the British Embassy in Lisbon in September 1943.) [++] 148X112mm, 24pp. Provenance : British Embassy (Lisbon), Library of Congress. There are a few small rubber stamps here and there. Original wrappers. WorldCat locates only 3 copies (Nanterre, British Library, Bibliotheque Nationale). VG copy. [++] This was published soon after Hitler declared war on the U.S. On 11 December 1941one of Hitler's most profound strategic errors of the war. The small pamphlet is a Socratic dialog between Tacitus and quotations from Mein Kampf and speeches made by Hitler. [++] Some of the subject headings include :"The Future German Domination Models" ; "Antibolshevist Crusade" ; "Roosevelt, Insolent, Ignorant, and Incapacitated Millionaire" ; "America, Land of Scams and Smuggling " ; "Roosevelt, Mentally Sick ; "the Eternal Jew" ; "Italo-Germano-Nippon Agreement" ; "Menaces Facing the German". I'm not sure of the purpose of this pamphlet, entirely, but it does seem to be a Vichy/pro-Fascist publication for French readers. Here's an example of some of the narrative : "THE PURPOSE OF ROOSEVELT'S PERFIDENT MANEUVERS. Hitler goes on to enumerate the measures taken by President Roosevelt, to help England: loan-lease law, occupation of Iceland, and he says: "So Roosevelt hoped: 1) Finally force Germany to war; 2) Also to make submarine warfare as ineffective as in 1915 and 1916. On September 11 Roosevelt announced that he had given the order to shoot Axis ships. On September 29, an American coastguard attacked a German submarine in eastern Greenland with depth bombs. The 17th October the destroyer "Kearney", which was part of a convoy to England, again attacks a German submarine, etc etc "[++] Outlines "les Pertes Russes" (Russian losses) from the Winter War, Operation Barbarossa, claiming 3.8 million Soviet soldiers taken prisoner, plus the destruction of 21,000 tanks, 17,000 planes, and 32,000 canons.

(Construction Industry Equipment) Associated Equipment Distributors Construction Equipment News 25th Anniversary, January 1944. 11"x 8.5", 198pp (and printed on heavy paper). 100+ photo illustrations. Lots of ads. Metal spiral bound. Lovely copy. Provenance: Library of Congress, with a few stamps here and there. Crisp and fresh copy. NO COPIES located in WorldCat. There are six locations for the general magazine/journal, but not of this specific publication. [++] Okay, so, ostensibly this is a ho-hum rum-drum anniversary catalog for the construction equipment business. Perhaps the first part of this publication is exactly that. The second part, however, is something else entirely. There are just about 100 photos of the facades of thee businesses, making this a terrific publication documenting the style and accommodating architecture of these businesses. If you were making a motion picture and needed inspiration and documentation of what business fronts looked like in the 1935-1945 period, this would be a fantastic resource.

Soft cover. Condizione: Good. The Menace of Nazi Propaganda. Woburn Press, London, (1938), 8"x5", 15 leaves, printed on one side only. Stapled. Front leaf detached. Provenance: given by the Board of Deputies of British Jews (April 29, 1939) to the Library of Congress. 10Mm "LC" perforated at first sheet bottom, plus a rubber stamp from the LC (discard). Also a couple of pencil marks on the first page. WorldCat locates only four copies (one at US National Holocaust) and the three others overseas (London, Amsterdam, Frankfurt). Interesting review and statement on the vast German anti-Semitic campaign 1933-1938. (See pics). [++] "The Board of Deputies of British Jews, commonly referred to as the Board of Deputies, is the largest and second oldest Jewish communal organisation in the United Kingdom, after the Initiation Society which was founded in 1745. Established in 1760 by a group of Sephardic Jews, the board presents itself as a forum for the views of most organisations within the British Jewish community, liaising with the British government on that basis. Notably, while Lord Rothschild was President of the Board of Deputies, the Balfour Declaration was addressed to him and eventually led to the creation of a Jewish state in Palestine. It is affiliated to the World Jewish Congress and the European Jewish Congress.".

Soft cover. Condizione: Good. Life and Death on the West Side, an Account Prepared and printed for Leaders in Public and Private Life. New York, 1933. On reverse title we see copyright 1938 by West Side Hospital & Dispensary. 11"x 8.5", 40pp, with 16 full-page illustrations including 10 interesting social statement photos. Other credits for the production of the pamphlet include: Philip D. Gendreau (some partial credit for photos looks like Gendreau was quite prolific and did a lot of work in the City) and Robert Keith Leavitt (copy and design, who was quite the researcher and writer, and evidently was a master (Sherlock) Holmesian). The pamphlet is bound in stiff undecorated wrappers. [++] Provenance: Library of Congress, with their surplus stamp on rear cover, 10mm "LC" perforated stamp at the bottom of the title page, and 10x5mm "Pamphlet Collection" rubber stamp on top right corner of the front cover. Also included: carbon copy of the original LC card catalog card! VG condition. [++] NO copies of this are located in WorldCat, which is a bit surprising. Also there isn't a single mention of this work online. [++] It seems as though this brochure intended to raised money/awareness for the West Side Hospital & Dispensary (founded 1827) partially by telling the plight of the hundred thousand poor people who lived and worked on the West Side where there was also great wealth. The NYC elite whose names are associated with this pamphlet include: Harold W. McGraw, Howard J. Moffett, Bernard Ridder, Frank Kridel, C.H. Thompson, Oswald S; Lowsley, Paul Dineen, Edgar Mayer, Jack Dempsey, Rev. Joeph A. McCaffrey. (Looks like Dempsey was named a trustee of the hospital in 1937.) [++] Evidently a rare work.

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. (Capek, Mann, Asch, others) Children and War. Documents presented to the Delegates to the Conference for the Reduction and Limitation of Armaments. Save the Children International Union, Geneva, 1932. Original thick wrappers, 9"x 5", 92pp. Provenance: gift from the International Committee to the Library of Congress, with the business card of the Union attached to the front wrapper with a paper clip, and with the LC rubber stamp on rear cover. VG copy. Contains thoughtful and forceful contributions by Karel Capek, Thomas Mann, Solomon Asch, John Galsworthy, and other international writers. ".(I)n England, in 1917, 600.000 children had to leave school and work for a livelihood; this work affected the health of seven to ten per cent., and juvenile criminality rose from 46 to 56 per cent. In France, infantile mortality among certain classes went up from ten to forty-four per cent; after the war, the number of widows with children was 470.000. In Italy the orphans numbered 380.000, and 120.000 children were living in the greatest poverty. Even in neutral States, rickets affected forty-one per cent of the child population. One could go on piling up examples, but enough has been cited to prove that war works greater ravages among the children than among the fighting forces. To remedy all this, it is not enough to humanise War: War must be abolished. Were a regiment to begin firing on crowds of children, humanity would be staggered. But in reality, every war costs us the lives of hundreds of thousands of children even if they are not deliberately massacred. To-day, no excuse whatever can be found for our deeds; nor can we plead ignorance, for the figures are there, and their speech is plain and pitiless."--Karel Capek [R.U.R.] [++] Only FIVE copies are located in WorldCat, with only two of those in the U.S.

Soft cover. Condizione: Fair. "Mouvement de liberation nationale, Region Paris (Seine, Seine et Oise, Seine et Marne). Base d'un Programme M.L.N. Presente pour etude." Dijon : Impr. Bernigaud et Privat, Novembre 1944 9"x 6", 8pp. FAIR copy only, printed on brittle paper, and becoming disbound. Rare. Only three copies located by WorldCat, all in France. Provenance: Library of Congress [++] This is a rare pamphlet printed by the Mouvement de Liberation Nationale, a French resistance group. "The National Liberation Movement is a Resistance organization that resulted from the 1944 regrouping of the United Resistance Movements (MUR) , including Combat , and several other North Zone movements .Not to be confused with the National Liberation Movement created in 1940 , at the start of the Occupation , by Henri Frenay and Berty Albrecht , which in 1941 took the name of Combat."--Wikipedia [++] Following the liberation of Paris in August 1944 there was an obvious increase in the need to establish the non-Vichy government for post-war France. On behalf of the MLN the pamphlet calls for liberty, and popular sovereignty, followed by 73 points on governance and law. The author in their conclusion states: "Some will prefer communism, others will remain conservatives. But precisely, far from seeing there an obstacle, we would rather see the means of organizing French political life on an tripartite basis, which would have the merit of clarity and simplicity. Everyone could find a way to represent their tendencies and liberty would be saved; but, at the same time, that's what we always lacked: stability. The new party born of the M.L.N. will be able to adopt a common line of action with all those whose cohesion is similar to his own, Christians, radicals and above all socialists. We will take the lead in the work of national reconstruction announced by General de Gaulle.This is to support the action of General de Gaulle, which we currently trust, but the eyes open and not with your eyes closed. We do not want a State that weighs on the Nation, but a State which is carried by the Nation.The reconstruction of the France is not possible without the revolutionary impulse, without the insurrection reaction of the People to establish a more humane and fairer regime.".

Also comes with a 4pp promotional for Smith's radio lecture series. Offset printed from typed originals, staple-bound. Original wrappers, with text printed on one side only. Provenance: gift from the Guild to the U.S. State Department, then the Library of Congress, with their stamps. GOOD+ condition. RARE: WorldCat locates NO copies. [++] This is a transcript of a radio broadcast by Dr. Charles Copeland Smith on 19 March 1939, exposing the forgery and falsity of the (then) five-year-old anti-Semitic fraud of Ben Franklin hating the Jews. The "Franklin Forgery" (also known as the "Franklin Prophesy") may have found its origin with local fascist William Dudley Pelley of the infamous Silver Legion, printing up his reports on his press in Asheville (NC) passing along what was supposed to be a contemporary warning by Franklin against the Jews. It was all false, of course, though there are still remnants of people who need to believe these lies. The address by Smith decimates the claims made against Franklin. [++] The radio station (WJJD) originated in 1924 with about 5,000 watts, moving to Chicago in 1927 with 20k watts, so there was ample possibility for the broadcasts to reach an audience of hundreds of thousands of people.

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. (NAZI Elections, 1933) Diagram Showing changes in Power of German Political Parties, from January 1919 to March 1933. Distributed by James G. MacDonald (chair, Foreign Policy Association). 215X100mm, single sheet, folded in half (vertically)--unfolds to 200x200mm graphic. VG condition. Provenance: Library of Congress, with their 10mm perforated "LC" stamp on cover bottom and LC rubber stamp on rear (blank). VG condition. Rare: NO copies located in WorldCat. This diagrammatic presentation of the German elections from the end of the First World War to the 1933 elections clearly shows the rapid and sustained growth of the National Socialist German Workers' Party, called for short, the Nazi Party (or NSDAP). [+] It is really the chronicle of the rise of the unemployed sergeant Adolf Hitler's rise from total obscurity to the chancellorship of Germany in just fourteen years. This is accomplished through a thick and murky collaboration of some of the stupid aspects of the Treaty of Versailles, the failure of the great base of the German economic enterprise, the worldwide depression, and the abject and miserable condition of post-war German society and of course the rip-tide undercurrent of anti-Semitism, which was healthiest in Germany but still achieving newish heights in Hungary, Poland and of course the Soviet Union. Through a wicked and unrelenting propaganda campaign which fed on fear and retribution and rage in defeat, Hitler secured a rising power base among disparate populations: university students, veterans, farmers, the working lower classes, and a huge dollop of political investment from a number of different industrial sources. When his part almost wins control of the country outright against the creakingly old Hindenburg, and others, in 1933, it is Hitler who outmaneuvers his political rivals to secure the chancellorship and controlling power in the Reichstag. It was all downhill from there, to the ring of fire. [+] I've seldom seen the rise of the Nazi party presented this way in the year of their ascendency this pamphlet was printed in 1933 by the Foreign Policy Association (founded in 1918 and still in existence) , and written by its chair, James G. McDonald (who served 1919-1933 as it turns out) for a radio broadcast for 11 March 1933. It is interesting to note that McDonald was the first U.S. ambassador to Israel (1949-1951).

[++]WorldCat locates only SIX copies of this work (five copies in the U.S.). [++] I now very little of Mr Leibe outside the finding that he was German-born, and has what looks like 10 other printed/published works located in WorldCat. [++] This short story is an unusual one, telling the tale of German-American citizens being impounded during WWII. This story is mostly the interaction between a German-American family with two FBI agents relating to loyalty to the USA and whether there was a fealty to Germany. The second part of the pamphlet settles into an impoundment ("German American characters referred to as "internees") center on Ellis Island in the NYC harbor. I do not recall coming across a wartime story of internment sympathetic to the German Americans. I mean, I'm no expert, just some guy wit a lot of exposure to this sort of material and reporting years of experience. (For the record something on the order of 30,000 German-American were impounded during WWII; something like 10,000 Italian-Americans and 120,000 Japanese-Americans were also impounded during the war.) [++] "By the time of WWII, the United States had a large population of ethnic Germans. Among residents of the United States in 1940, more than 1.2 million persons had been born in Germany, 5 million had two native-German parents, and 6 million had one native-German parent. Many more had distant German ancestry. During WWII, the United States detained at least 11,000 ethnic Germans, overwhelmingly German nationals between the years 1940 and 1948 in two designated camps at Fort Douglas, Utah, and Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia. The government examined the cases of German nationals individually, and detained relatively few in internment camps run by the Department of Justice, as related to its responsibilities under the Alien Enemies Act."--Wikipedia.

Provenance: Library of Congress ("Pamphlet Collection"), via the Office of Strategic Services (OSS). Good condition. [++] A while ago--well, more than just a "while"--I bought a large non-collection of pamphlets from the Library of Congress. In this mass of material, all housed in 2000 blue document boxes that somehow managed to be undifferentially differentiated, there was a clutch of about 150 items that had been in the OSS library. That's the Office of Strategic Services, which was organized and founded by William Donovan and Franklin Roosevelt and solidified in 1942 and which became dissolved and reformulated as the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in 1945 (the OSS name lasting for three years and three months). So. Many of the pamphlets were analyzed and coordinated for mobility of use, extracting information in abstracts that might enable the pamphlet's data to reach the appropriate readers/researcher. I thought it would be interesting to share an example of this interpretation or information routing engaged by the fledgling intelligence organization, as we see below in a 1939 French pamphlet on what to do in the case of poison gas attacks. Perhaps this is one aspect of one of the many fundamental steps in building an interpretative foundation for analysis of  multivariate issues; it seems to be that it was simple, accurate, and effective.

He was small, his hair was always untidy, his clothes always looked rumpled. But his lovely smile lit up his face, and [he] looked right through you, so that no one who ever talked to Berl forgot him. I think of him as I saw him, hundreds of times, buried in a shabby old armchair in one of the two book-lined rooms in which he lived in the heart of old Tel-Aviv, where everyone came to see him and where he worked (because he hated going to an office). 'Berl would like you to stop by' was like a command that no one disobeyed. Not that he held court or ever gave orders, but nothing was done, no decision of any importance to the Labour movement in particular or the yishuv in general, was taken without Berl's opinion being sought first."  Encyclopedia of Zionism and Israel, Berl Katzenelson, edited by Raphael Patai, New York, 1971.
