American Jewish Congress - Description:
- 3 pages. Translated Summary: Present: Saltzman, Kelner, Pevzner, Sandler, Youkelson, Smotritsh, Schechter, Hamburger, Rich, Gordon, Grossfeld, Malis, Kamenetzky, Goldberg, A. Lupin, Kalb, Migdal Lapides, Trotshman, Goldman, Mann. Youth member Jenny Trotshman [sp?] reported from the "Win the Peace" conference in Washington (April 5 to 8), that it was well attended by women and black Americans, and its resolutions were in line with many of the Ordn's goals. Rubin Saltzman pointed out the non-participation of the American Jewish establishment, and discrepancies between the delegates and those in charge of the platform wording at the conference. Also discussions of American Jewish Congress and the World Jewish Congress. Given (Samuel) Margoshes' false reports concerning the Jews of Poland [he returned from a WJC trip to Warsaw reporting that 99% of Jews there want to leave, and that their lives were in danger], it is important to press for Saltzman to be sent to Poland. [Rubin Saltzman was sent to Poland and elsewhere in Europe for a ten week fact-finding mission later in 1946.]
- Notes:
- The National Campaign to Win the Peace, like the IWO, was placed on the Subversives List early on
The Jewish People’s Fraternal Order was the largest ‘national’ section of the International Workers Order (IWO) which focused on cultural awareness and celebration, mutual support especially in health insurance coverage, and anti-fascist activities. The IWO also gave particular emphasis to supporting the rights and interests of African Americans.
