Antelman to eliminate the opiate vol1

ACKNOWLEDGMENT
I wish to thank the Jewish Publication Society of America,
Philadelphia, Pa. for permission to reproduce one of Abraham
Geiger's letters to Lillienthal that appeared in Max Weiner's
Abraham Geiger and Liberal Judaism, Copyright 1962, as well
as a sermon from the same book (abbrev. WG).
There are also a number of people whom I would like to thank
for their most generous help to me in gathering information for
the preparation of this book. I am particularly indebted to Mrs.
Maryland Estes of the Beth El Library in Providence for
obtaining some rare books and manuscripts and for her
constant assistance in locating various sources. Thanks are
also due to my student, Rabbi Yitzchak Dubovick of
Providence for obtaining special information on the Chasidim
in Russia during the 19th century. Miss Edith Kermit Roosevelt
of Washington, the granddaughter of President Theodore
Roosevelt, has given me much information on the subversive
activities of the Cult of the All-Seeing Eye and some
interesting connections between them and the American
Jewish Congress, for which I am most indebted. Also I am
grateful to Gordon Hall of Boston for making available some
in- formation in his files on subversives for my perusal.
For their help and suggestions I am grateful to my father, A.
Harry Antelman and my mother, Anna Antelman of Atlantic
City, New Jersey; also to Irwin Katz, Regional Coordinator of
the New England JSL and Allan E. Mallenbaum, National
Chairman of JSL. And most important of all to my wife, Sylvia,
who also designed the cover of this book and without whose
patience and forbearance, this book would have been an
impossibility.
M.S.A.
