Scope and Content

Clippings, notes, and pamphlets, relating to international relations, international economic conditions, the oil industry, domestic conditions in Croatia, Croatia's role in international relations, the history and condition of Jews throughout the world, and military operations during World War II. Section IV of this collection, separated into folders l 4, deals with the "Jewish question, l9l9-l945." Most of the material consists of newspaper and magazine clippings organized by subject such as "Jews and Economics," "Jews and Freemasonry," "Jews as Criminals," as well as the "History of Jews in Europe." The worth of the material for serious research is very uneven, although a good many clippings originate from wartime newspaper files that are not easily available.
