Workers Fraternity 1939 - A firm Proclamation Against Jewish Socialism

Workers Fraternity 1939. A proclamation comparing the status of members of the Jewish Labor Federation in Israel to Nazism and Bolshevism. Alongside an SS soldier with a swastika flag, and a Russian soldier with the hammer and sickle flag, a Jew with the "Hapoel" symbol and the inscription "Long live in 1 May" appears. On the Nazi and Russian flags, the inscription was written in German and Russian.

International Workers Day, and by its better known name May 1, is marked as an expression of solidarity among workers' organizations and as an expression of the fight for better working conditions. This day is one of the central symbols of socialism. Beginning in the 1920s, the General Workers' Union in Israel and in general, marked the Day of Workers as a general holiday each year by disabling jobs, large conferences and a central procession. Totalitarian regimes of some socialist kind adopted the day. The Nazi Party in Germany, after coming to power in the 1930s, set the day as a national holiday called "Labor Day," but banned left-wing demonstrations on that day, dismantling the unions unrelated to the Nazi party. In the Soviet Union, too, after the October Revolution, the may 1 Set as a national holiday, and soon it became the main holiday of the Soviet Union and the countries that were subject to it. At the height of the Soviet Union, they used to mark the holiday for two consecutive days (May 1 and 2), and hold huge parades there. This is the aim of the proclamation before us that goes out against Jewish socialism in comparing it to the worst totalitarian regimes which, like him, celebrated May 1st.
