American Jewish Congress - Description:
- In Yiddish. Almost certainly Rubin Saltzman's handwritten notes for two talks, or possibly articles, in outline form. The first has to do with a "congress", almost certainly the American Jewish Congress, as point three deals with the leadership of [Stephen] Weiss. Translated Summary: We must acknowledge our earlier mistakes. Need for democratization. The second, on the left side, refers to a "fifth anniversary", and concerns a monument, probably the monument to the Warsaw Ghetto. The world should be disturbed by what the fascists did to the Jews. The last point, a memorial that acknowledges that religious Jews fell as martyrs side by side with communists.

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.
