HERZL DIARIES ARE PUBLISHED Issued by New Zionist Book of the Month Club GEWERKSHAFTEN DRIVE ASSURED OF SUCCESS At the last meeting of the Gewerkshaf ten campaign, held Thursday evening, Feb. 13, en- couraging reports, for the ulti- mate success of the 1941 cam- paign, were given of the splen- The Scopus Publishing Company announces the formation of the "Zionist Book of the Month Club" which issues a book a month. The whole series of books can be sub- scribed to for $6. Single books at $1 each and double books at 4:2. The first book of this month is "Theodor Herzl, Excerpts from the Diaries." These excerpts, se- lected by Mordecai Newman, have been translated ably by Maurice Samuel and Joel Lipsky. Pierre Van Paassen and Emanuel Neu- mann have respectively provided the introduction and preface. Never before has Herzl's diar- ies appeared in book form in the English language. Theodor fierzi, the prophet and founder of Modern Zionism, was a distinguished writer and journa- list. As Paris correspondent of the "Neue Freie Presse" of Vienna, he was in France at the time of the Dreyfus case. It was this event that launched him on that great historic enterprise, the founding of the Zionist move- ment. Special attention should be given to his conversation with Baron de Hirsch (June 2, 1895, page 5-7) and to an undelivered speech to the Rothschild's (Page 15-16) which describe the cir- cumstances of Herzl's espousal of Zionism and how he foresees the future of European Jewry. Note- worthy too is his interview with the Grand Duke of Baden of April 18, 1900 (page 71-74), where they discussed the struggle be- tween England and Germany. The editor, Mordecai Newman, has had wide publishing exper- ience in Palestine, where he helped to build the modern He- brew literature. The second book to appear will be "The Story of Zionism" by Lotta Levensohn.
