Professor Sidney B. Fay '96 and William L. Langer '15, Coolidge Professor of History, are on the editorial board which prepared the first complete American edition of Adolf Hitler's "Mein Kampf," put on sale yesterday. The proceeds from the sale of this book, ironically enough, will go to a special fund for refugee children from Germany.
"A very important guide to Nazi policy, and a clear reflection of the Fascist doctrine," was the way Professor Langer characterized the new book, which was prepared from a rare first edition. Roynal and Hitchcock, the publishers, arranged for the money from the sale of "Germany's Bible" to be given to John Chamborlain of Harper's Magazine, and Alvin Johnson, director of the New School of Social Research. These men will arrange for the disposal of the money in connection with the Refugee Fund.
