Jewish Lodges - Description:
- The Soviet appeal for tanks. Text is similar to the item titled, "We Answer the Call from Soviet Jews for 1000 Tanks and 500 Airplanes." This may be an earlier draft. The text is part of the IWO/JPFO's war effort campaign to buy Jewishly named tanks for the Soviet Union to support the appeal made by the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee of the USSR (JAFC).
- 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.
