Includes article “Jew Baiting Must Be Wiped Out: No Mercy for Murderers, ” by Komarov, who was the most respected name in systematic botany in the USSR, ex-president of the Academy of Sciences, a deputy of the Supreme Soviet, and holder of the highest Soviet civil award-a “Hero of Socialist Labour. ” Also contains smaller sections “Conference of European Jewry, ” “Fight for Humanity, ” “Meeting of Jewish Communists, ” “French Jews Reorganise, ” and “Commentary. ” The general theme is uniting forces and countries to fight against antisemitism. From Komarov’s article, “To keep silence about this is to deliver our children to death. In this matter, if any country gives shelter to the Hitlerites or their ideas, in the shape of discriminatory legislation in the shape of racial organisation or racial Press, it is no longer an internal affair of that country. If your neighbour uncloses in his backyard a container with poison gases which threaten to spread over the entire town, you will not waste time by asking for permission to enter his backyard, you will do so to avert death for thousands of people. Racial ideas are more dangerous than any poison gas. It is our generation’s duty to the future, to the cause of the progress of civilisation and humanity, not only to put out the smoking fire of Fascism but to uncover and extinguish every smouldering coal of it. ” (page [12]) Very rare, not listed on OCLC nor could we locate copies anywhere else.
