The resolution, which the German group has submitted, to the congress is in no wise prompted by political considerations, but emerges from a sincere and profound anxiety for German literature, which is considered as a notable part of world literature. As one is aware, this protest is directed against the German government's interference with the activities of a large number of German authors who stand opposed to the regime, and against its attempts to defame them in the eyes of the public at large. The German authorities were not content to prohibit and to burn the books of these authors.
