  • Escape to Shanghai: 1938-1940
    Flight to Shanghai, 1938-1940: The Larger Setting Avraham Altman and Irene Eber Between November 1938 and August 1939, approximately 20,000 Central European refugees, most of them Jews, landed in Shanghai. They had sailed on German, Italian, and Japanese ships and, in the short span of eight months, constituted a massive exodus. What, however, is the background to this phenomenon, and, moreover, why did it rapidly diminish after August 1939?1 In order to answer these questions, we must look at the larger setting within which this process took place—something that, until now, has not been investigated. The Background In 1933, when Hitler came to power, there were around 500,000 Jews in Germany and 185,000 in Austria.2 In contrast to the gradual pressure over several years that had been exerted on the Jews in Germany to leave the country, when Austria came under German rule in March 1938, the Jews were immediately and ruthlessly persecuted. By launching an organized terror campaign against them—confiscating their property, depriving them of all means of livelihood, and incarcerating Jewish men in concentration camps—the Nazis forced the Austrian Jews to 1This paper is part of a larger project on the Jewish communities in modern China under Japanese occupation. The authors wish to thank the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and its Truman Research Institute for their partial support of this research. Irene Eber thanks the J.K. Fairbank Research Center, Harvard University, where additional research was carried out in 1996-1997, and the Andover Newton Theological School where she was Visiting Judson Professor.

  • Strikes in 1939
    Serial No. R. 1114 UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF LABOR Frances Perkins, Secretary - BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS Isador Lubin, Commissioner P11,~N~#4 STRIKES IN 1939 From the MONTHLY LABOR REVIEW of the Bureau of Labor Statistics United States Department of Labor MAY 1940 issue UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE • WASHINGTON • 1940 STRIKES IN 1939 1 THE year 1939 was characterized by a moderately large number of small strikes, though there were occasional stoppages of large propor- tions. There were 2,613 strikes during the year, in which about 1,171,000 workers were involved. There were approximately 17,812,- 000 man-days of idleness during these strikes. About 43 percent of the workers involved and 51 percent of the idle man-days were ac- counted for by the three largest disputes of the year—the bituminous- coal stoppage in April and May, the WPA stoppages in July, and the Chrysler dispute in October and November. There were fewer strikes in 1939 than in the preceding 2 years although the number of workers involved and man-days of idleness exceeded those in 1938, largely because of the bituminous-coal stop- page. Excluding the coal dispute, there were about the same number of workers involved and man-days idle in 1939 as in 1938. In this report no distinction is made between strikes and lock-outs, the term "strike" being used to include all stoppages of work arising from labor disputes. As in former years, the figures do not include stoppages which lasted less than a full working day or shift, nor do they include those involving fewer than six workers.
