1st edition. Original paper wrappers. 12mo, 29 pages. Illustrated cover. Holocaust-era pamphlet condemning Nazi persecution of Jews in Germany and building support for Jewish refugees coming to America. “The income derived from the sale of this booklet and other publications of HUMANITY GUILD, Inc. will be used to provide a haven for refugees, and assure for them a peaceful and secure future.” (back cover) From the foreword, “Within the covers of this booklet we present material that should be of vital importance to every liberal minded person who is convinced that all human beings are alike entitled to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It is a case of ‘Humanity vs. Nazi-Fascism’ with you acting as the judge. We accuse the Nazi-Fascists of wantonly destroying a great people whose contributions to human culture and civilization are incalcuable. Unless we also would condemn the Jews to an undeserving fate we must build for them a bridge to a more secure and happier future. Upon our verdict, then, depend the lives of these unfortunate human beings.” (page [1]) OCLC: 520077. Pencil marks on cover, else clean copy. Very Good Condition.
