WORLD WAR II]. The Mass Extermination of Jews in German Occupied Poland . London: Hutchinson, [1943].
WORLD WAR II]. The Mass Extermination of Jews in German Occupied Poland . London: Hutchinson, [1943]. 8 o (216 x 140mm). 16 pp., printed in red and black. Stapled as issued in original self-wrappers (staples with minor rust). A VERY EARLY OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE HOLOCAUST ADDRESSED TO THE UNITED NATIONS. "It is not possible," writes Edward Raczynski, "to estimate the exact numbers of Jews who have been exterminated in Poland since the occupation of the country by the armed forces of the German Reich. but all reports agree that the total number of killed runs into many hundreds of thousands of innocent victims--men, women and children--and that of the 3,130,000 Jews in Poland before the outbreak of war, over a third have perished during the last three years." The report identifies "Tremblinka, Belzec and Sobibor...as 'Extermination camps,' and hopes --vainly--that the revelation of the crime might act to restrain Germany. But by 1943, 80 percent of those killed in the Holocaust had already met their fate.
