The Jewish Frontier, new monthly magazine sponsored by the League for Labor Palestine, made its first appearance yesterday. A forty-eight page publication, edited by Hayim Greenberg and Hayim Fineman, the issue includes contributions from William Zukerman, I. M. Rubinow, Ira Eisenstein, Greenberg, Charles Reznikoff, G. Schofman, Marie Syrkin, Maurice Feinstone and H. Frumkin. Also included in the issue are book reviews by Horace Gregory, Leo W. Schwarz, Israel Knox and A. H. Friedland.
A group of six, Isidore Abramowitz, David Pinski, Joseph Schlossberg, Marie Syrkin, Jacob J. Weinstein and Samuel Wohl, are listed as associate editors. In its lead editorial, “Our Stand,” the publication labeled itself anti-assimilationist, stating that “assimilation as a conscious program has long become an anachronism.” Though left in tendencies, the editorial also states that the Soviet experiment is “no ipso facto solution of the Jewish question.”
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
