Is the full diary online somewhere, or published? I've seen some intriguing quotes about my relatives: my great-grandfather Louis Cohen, and his brother Joseph H. Cohen, founder (with R Kaplan) of the Jewish Center.
The ms. is to be digitized at JTS online. here - http://sylvester.jtsa.edu:8881/R/G3CN219BUE47RQVSYHEY5YJSXJP9B4U9J6EI331XC1GLB8YG97-00337?func=collections-result&collection_id=1335
Please let me know if you find anything interesting
