Postwar Jewish Unity - Description:
- 8 pages. Translated Summary: Outline for discussion on a post-war world in which the three largest surviving Jewish communities are in the U.S., the U.S.S.R and in Palestine due to the wholesale devastation in Europe. Discusses how the 1917 Russian Revolution "liberated the Jews of Russia and realized there in practice a complete solution to the Jewish Question creating opportunities for the first time in modern history, for the development of a full-fledged Jewish nation with its own Soviet statehood in Biro-Bidhan." Most of the document discusses the JPFO's ideological position on Palestine which is explained as having evolved since 1938 especially due to World War II and the current need to fight the White Paper for the sake of the Yishuv and unify behind requesting a U.N. decision.

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.
