Denmark Declines Request of Gunsbura
Family.
The famous Russian Jewish family,
Gunzberg, many members of which
are now in Japan, petitioned the gov-
ernment of Denmark to permit them
to settle there. The request was not
granted by the Danish authorities.
The reason given that the influx of a
large number of Russian Jewish im-
migrants has already caused much
hardships to the Danish people, be-
cause of the rise in the cost of living
will hardly apply to the case in ques-
tion, since the family Gunzberg is one
of the wealthiest families in Russia.
