SWISS JEWS ORGANIZE
TO AID OPPRESSED

Want to Convene Public Con-
ference of Jews of Neutral
Lands in Switzerland.

The Jews in Switzerland have or-
ganized to aid in the emancipation
of the Jews in Russia, Poland and
Roumania. The movement is en-
titled, "Pro Causa Judaica," and ad-
dresses itself to the whole world.
It knows nothing of secrecy or
mystery.
The members of the committee
representing every Canton include
apparently every Jewish name of
importance in Switzerland, includ-
ing that of Dr. A. Mamelok, Su-
preme Court Justice of Zurich. The
manifesto, after rehearsing the
conditions under which the Jews
are laboring in Russia, Poland and
Roumania, proposes :
"1. To prepare a memorial on
the Jewish question as it has been
created by the war and to present
it to all governments, parliaments,
sovereigns, political, social and
democratic organizations, and to the
press of the whole world.
"2. To convene a public confer-
ence of the Jews of all neutral lands
of Europe, and if possible, of Am-
erica, in Switzerland, for the dis-
cussion of the Jewish question.
"3. To organize a Christian-Jew-
ish conference in the federal capital
of Switzerland, in order to direct
the attention_of the world to the
Jewish question."
The circular calls attention to the
absolute need of a conference of the
Jews of the neutral lands, and
adds : "We lay particular stress
upon the fact that our action is in
unison with the efforts being made
in the United States of America."
