Description:
14 pages. Translated Summary: Pastimes for children that aid in preventing juvenile crime during the time of the War. Reviews a study of 23,000 boys and girls on the surge in crime among youth. Presumably written for publication. Handwriting matches that of Moyshe Bakal, but his name is crossed out, and 'Ben Dolman' written instead.
Notes:
It's possible this is an essay or lecture by Bakal describing a study by Dolman.
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.
