The Story of The Yiddish Encyclopedia
The Books That Outdistanced Hitler

written in English (they will not
be translations) and will permit
non-Jews to see the Jews through
their own eyes as they see them
selves. It will be some months
before the English edition will be
in print.
The Yiddish Encyclopedia was
presented to the Jacksonville Jew
ish public by M. M. Mandelman,
writer and lecturer, who has shar-
ed the fate of the Yiddish Culture
for many years in Warsaw and
now in New York City. Like his
co-workers Mandelman fled Pol
ond after Hitler attacked, and
over a treacherous route through
Lithuania, Rumania, Russia and
Japan he finally reached San
Francisco in March, 1941. Since
his arrival here he has travelled
from coast to coast, lecturing and
securing subscriptions for the
Encyclopedia.
In the south Mr.. Mandelman
visited Miami, Savannah, and
Birmingham as well as Jackson
vile, in the first Encyclopedia
mission in the South, and he has
requested the Southern Jewish
Weekly to extend thanks to the
many people who so graciously
helped him and contributed to the
cause of furthering Jewish learn
ing.
Mr.. Mandelman remarked that
the Yiddish Encyclopedia differs
from other such compilations in
that it does not present an assim-
ilationist viewpoint, but rather
gives the reader the picture OF
100000 Jews who struggle for
national existence.
Professor Dubnov was killed in
Riga by the Nazis in 1941. The
Yiddish Encyclopedia is therefore
no longer dedicated to man who
merely wrote history, but to one
who lived it, and himself became
martyr to the cause of justice.
Like the man to whom it is dedi-
Gated, and like the men who are
writing it, the compilation of the
Yiddish Encyclopedia becomes a
symbol of those forces which must
outdistance dark reaction if civ
ilization is to survive.

Jewish writer's sought to COM
memorate the 10th jubilee year of
Simon Dubnov, the greatest living
Jewish historian, by dedicating to
his name an Encyclopedia of gen.
eral knowledge written in Yiddish.
The project of compiling the
twenty volumes which was to en-
compass the momentous work,
and the dedication of the group
Of writer's to the ideals of pro-
gressive liberalism upon which
viewpoint the Encyclopedia was
to be based, set in motion a race
around the world which will make
the printing of the Yiddish Ency-
clopedia a saga of the present era
of world history.
One year after work was inaug-
urated on the Encyclopedia Adolph
Hitler rose to power in Germany,
and the committee which had I'M
dertaken the compilation fled to
Paris. There six volumes were
published, but in 1910 France fell,
and Hitler's armies entered the
French capital. Hitler strove to
murder ideas as well as men, and
in a raid upon the publishing
house the fifth and sixth volumes
of the Yiddish Encyclopedia were
completely destroyed, as were the
printers plates.
Most members of the committee
managed to escape, but their en-
tire funds were confiscated by the
Nazis, and it was left to the
American Labor Committee, in
September, 1910. to rescue the
writer's and workers and bring
them to the United States.
In the last three years the work
on the Encyclopedia has been re-
organized with the aid of individ-
uals and interested organizations.
The two lost volumes have been
rewritten, and volumes seven and
eight have been published. The
ninth volume will be out of the
publishing house within a few
weeks.
Considering the special condi-
lions of Jewish life in the United
States the Encyclopedia commit
tee has decided to issue a special
edition of several volumes printed
in English on problems of Jewish
life since the time when Jews be-
came people until today. Whereas
the Yiddish volumes deal with
general topics. the English edit
ions, which are now being plan
ned, will deal with Jewish mat
tiers. They will be originally

BETWEEN YOU
AN D M {
BY BORIS SMOLAR

BEHIND THE SCENES: The
american Jewish Conference NAV
soon issue a statement which will
come as quite blow to the groups
which have branched out from the
Committee for a Jewish ARMY :
Jewish leaders are especially in
censed at the Emergency Commit
Tee to Save the Jews of Europe
because of the fact that this COM
mittee was responsible for the in
PRODUCTION Of a resolution in the
Senate and in the House which
urges the creation of a special
commission to plan the rescue of
Jews in Nazi Europe Ex-
cellent as this resolution may
seem, important American Jewish
leaders consider it harmful :
In fact, we understand that Sen
ator Gillette who introduced this
resolution in the Senate, was ask
ed by well-known Jewish leaders
to abstain from doing so ;. : So
was Rep. Will Rogers, Jr. before
he introduced the resolution in
the House Both preferred
however, to act on the advice of
the Emergency Committee and a
gainst the will of the American
Jewish Conference, and others :
In terming this resolution harm
full, Jewish leaders indicate that
important negotiations are now
going on behind the scenes in
official Washington which may
bring tangible results as far as
saving the Jews of Europe :
But these negotiations, in which
the State Department is involved,
may be hampered as result of
the Gillette-Rogers resolution, they
claim At any rate, men,
bers of both houses of Congress,
as well as high Washington Of
ficials, now have in their hands
for the first time information as
to the exact nature of the groups
which have branched out from the
Committee for a Jewish Army :
THE JEWISH FRONT: A del
egatiOn of American Jews may
soon proceed to Russia It
will be composed of persons inter-
ested in establishing direct con-
tact with the Jews of Russia, and
may include even a rabbi =
The theological split in the ranks
of Reform rabbis is becoming
dangerously wide Serious
differences are reported in San
Francisco, Houston and other
cities And all is not well
even in the ranks of the Reform
rabbinate in New York = We
also hear that the Zionist labor
ties are threatening the Jewish
Labor Committee with serious
split in the Jewish labor move
ment should the Committee de-
eide to withdraw from the Amer
lean Jewish Conference The
Jewish Labor Committee itself is
still divided on this question -
One day it looks as if the OppOn-
ents of the American Jewish Con-
ference have the upper hand,
while the next day the picture
changes to the contrary :
Final decision on the issue will be
taken by the Jewish Labor Com
mittee at its annual conference
which is to take place very soon.
In the meantime we learn
that the interim committee OF the
American Jewish Conference has
invited the Union of Orthodox
Rabbis and the Agudas Israel OF
America to join the Conference

It used to be, back in the care free POS, that you could set your calendar by the August produc- tions of William Brady and the late David Belasco as they got the jump on the rest of the field at starting then we season, which popularly is supposed to bow in about Labor Day. But during the '30s an August premiere got to be as scarce as happy Republican and eventually things didn't really begin to open up with any consistency until Co., tober.
 The wartime theater boom has changed things back to the old or der, however. Three new plays are scheduled to appear the first week of August-"Try and Get It." the farce with which Producer A. H. Woods again is attempting come back; "The Two Mrs. Carols, , starring Elisabeth Bergner and the New Opera Company's revival of Lehar's "The Merry Widow" The week also will inaugaurate the limited engagement of 'The Army Play-by-Play." f i've one-acters written and acted by soldiers, and Helen Hayes will reopen in liar riet" after six-week vacation. From rehearsal activities it is in dicated that five more productions may appear before the month is out.
 The fact that there is practically no summer theater circuit now, making available actors who pre- viously would not have thought about coming back to the hot Broadway pavements until after Labor Day, also has something to do with this early activity.
 What shapes up as one of the more artistic presentations of the new season is a Theater Guild re- vival of Shakespeare "Othello" in which the Moor will be played by Paul Robeson, Iago by Jose Ferre and Desdemona by Uta Hagen (Mrs. Ferrer). The articles have been signed by all parties and the : out-of-town opening set for Sept 16 at New Haven, to be followed by two weeks each in Boston and Phil adelphia. The New York date is Oct. IS.
 It will be recalled that this tric appeared briefly in the play in the late spring of 1942 out of town and plans to bring it in last season fell through because of conflict with the Negro actor singers heavy concert
