Author Advocates Retaining Holocaust Memorial, Perpetuating History's Facts Peggy Mann, author of best-selling novels and children's books and of her biography of. Golda Meir, is a strong believer in per- petuating the memories of the Holocaust. She advo- cates recollection of historic experiences so that the hor- which lead to human should never be for- n. This was her message both at the Book Fair, when she addressed the Pioneer Women's special session, Nov. 6, and in an interview afterward. Her newest work, "Gizelle, Save the Children" (Everest House) deals with the Holocaust, with the heroic efforts to resist where possible, to give comfort to children who were among the chief victims of the Nazis. Believing that the lead- ers in the barbarities engineered by Hitler and his cohorts should be ex- posed, she makes Dr. ORLEY and this generation of the tragedy of Evian, where, in 1937, the Allies, including the United States, failed to come to the rescue of the Jewish victims of Hitlerism. In. her epilogue to this cur- rent volume she has a chart showing the totality of Jewish losses in the cre- matoria and the death camps. Here she reviews the failures of the world powers, the Evian indif- ference. It is an historic record. Miss Mann's comments are condem- nations of the failures. "Gizelle, Save the Chil- dren" has earned highest commendations from the most noted literary critics and authors, including Robert St. John, Meyer Le- vin, Gerald Frank and Ruth Gruber. Most notable of the recommendations for this work to its readers is St. John's comment in which he stated: "This is a mind-searing story of how four Hungarian-Romanian girls survived all the bestialities their Nazi captors were able to invent. But it is much more than a poignantly written chronicle that reads like a novel. "The final 17 pages con- stitute a new J'accuse in which Peggy Mann points a condemnatory finger, just as Emile Zola did, and with careful documentation pro- ves that the six million Jews died because the self- concerned nations of the West, starting with Evian, gave the Nazis carte blanche to put their Final Solution into effect. "This book should be read by those who dare to face ugly truth and by those who want no repetition of the Holocaust. Also by dip- lomats and politicians who cloak their anti-Semitism with apologetic verbiage." glachine!
