    [Rzeszow Jews and censuses] / (1950)
    1950 :[publisher not identified],
    Details
    Pages: 11 + 6 pages : , handwritten manuscript; typescript.
    Year of publication: 1950
    Keywords: Jari, Mosche. ; Schmelkes, Gedaliah ben Mordecai, ; Demographic surveys. ; Zionism. ; Zionism and Judaism. ; Dukla (Poland) ; Galicia (Poland and Ukraine) ; Court decisions and opinions. ; Autobiographies ; Biographical sources ; Memoirs
    Abstract: The memoir (original German manuscript and a typed English translation) documents the early moments of the Zionist movement in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Before a census was held, Zionists tried to convince Jewish residents to note down "Jewish" as their language. Zionists hoped that this would bring them recognition as a nation. The author explains how Zionist meetings were prohibited by the ruling class and what attempts were undertaken to legalize them by Zionist activists. One of those illegal meetings took place in Dukla, where the author held the introductory speech. A city official tried to close the meeting, but was sent away. Some time thereafter, a law suit was filed against the author of this memoir. He then describes the setting of the court hearing and his pleas. The judge dismissed the case which was perceived as a huge victory for the Zionist cause.
    Abstract: The memoir is part of the "Rzeszow Community Memorial Book" (Poland), edited by M. Yari-Wold, published in Tel Aviv, by Former residents of Rzeszow in Israel and the USA, 1967. A translation was published online by http://www.jewishgen.org.
