Pedagogy - Description:
- 2 pages on airmail stationery, from Paul Novick, in Paris, to Rubin Saltzman. Translated Summary. Novick writes he will leave Paris by train for Prague on Monday the 17th, spend a couple of days there, then go to Warsaw. If Saltzman flies out on the 20th, he will get to Warsaw before Novick does. Describes visit to Andrésy, Yvelines, Île-de-France children's home (orphanage)- "the best and loveliest home, but we are criminal for not doing more." One volleyball, no pictures of Jewish writers or Jewish school books. The "Joint" supplies only 40% of their budget. Other homes get more. Meeting drew a broad picture of the need for help. Culture Congress is not moving forward. Itche [Goldberg] will have to get actively involved. Suggests sending presents c/o Rayski to be distributed when he comes-- razors and little knives, shirts, coffee, and for the children, chocolate, volley balls and hand balls, etc. Flints for a lighter.
- Notes:
- 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.
