n.p.: n.p., n.d. [195-?]. An anonymously compiled and published pamphlet that includes a 1933 speech by Zionist lawyer, Samuel Untermyer, in which he advocates for an economic boycott of all German goods and services followed by Father Charles Coughlin's response in Social Justice. Coughlin maintains that WWII was fought on behalf of 600,000 German-Jewish "aristocrats" and forced Christian to fight Christian. His response received widespread condemnation in the press and led to a federal investigation and the banning of Social Justice for the duration of the war. The cover of the pamphlet asks, "Is it ok to be anti-Christian, but a crime in the United States to be anti-Semitic?"

New York: Boni & Liveright, 1925. First edition. Small octavo. Yellow cloth stamped in black; 368 pp. A Near Fine copy with just a hint of rubbing and dust-soiling; no dust jacket. Allan Updegraff (1883-1965) was an American-born writer, poet, and editor who died an expatriate in Paris in 1965. He is largely forgotten and copies of many of his books are quite scarce. We only find one other copy of this title in commerce (and in less-than-collectible condition) and only a dozen copies found via OCLC. Updegraff seems to be best remembered as a roommate and close friend of Sinclair Lewis (1885-1951) when they were at Yale together; they were later employed as "servants" at Upton Sinclair's short-lived utopian Helicon Home Colony and Updegraff married Sinclair's fiance of two years, the author Edith Summers Kelley (1884-1956).
