summary

“On May 4, 1949, the first anniversary of the State of Israel was celebrated by the Jews of America in every community from coast to coast… In New York City a mass demonstration was attended by 150,000 persons.” This pamphlet, issued by the American Zionist Council, contains the pathos-filled oratory of Abba Hillel Silver, Senator Paul Hyde Douglas, Senator Henry Cabot Lodge and Major Aubrey (Abba) Eban, all who spoke on the extraordinary day.
