My father started a "diary" in 1945 (more accurately, a journal, covering both family and current events), and I'm going to see if this is a decent way to publish it. Since I'm doing it as a blog, to get to the beginning of the journal, you have to go to the beginning of the blog.

1/3
We both read "Germinal" by Zola. This saga of the French coal miners runs the gamut of human emotions and trials in describing the inhuman existence of these heroic people. It is the great "labor" novel of the 19th century. Eugene and Sylvia like to darken the room and play "movies" occasionally. A general strike in Stamford Conn. will aid the "Yale& Town" strikers. British Gen. Morgan UNRAA chief in Gemany has shocked decent mankind with the sensational charge that a secret organization is plotting the second exodus of the Jews, from Europe this time, on the "pretext" of persecution in Poland.
