May 17, 1947 issue

add to cart   close window

Five hundred thousand Jews in Europe, almost half of the surviving Jewish population, "may wish or be impelled to migrate from Europe, according to the report of the Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry. An exhaustive study by the committee, country by country, revealed an active AntiSemitism, which, added to the impoverishment and the psychological horror of living in countries responsible for the slaughter of their families and friends, has produced a frantic desire, as well as a need, to emigrate. In the words of the committee, while "the governments of the countries we visited expressed their opposition to AntiSemitism...this is a poison which after years of infection takes years to eradicate."
