JEWS IN GERMANY PLAN TO ESTABLISH
BANK TO LIQUIDATE THEIR PROPERTY,
TO SOLVE REFUGEE TRANSFER PROBLEM

all sides that the League of Na-
tions integrate permanently all
refugee work were made to the
committee of experts which con-
cluded its hearings on this sub-
ject Friday. The committee will
draft recommendations, hoping to
have them ready for the January
meeting of the League council.
The testimony showed that
refugee work by the Nansen office
for Russians, Armenians and oth-
ers, though still a problem, ap-
pears to be gradually liquidating
itself. The main difficulty now is
the situation of German Jews.
The evidence pointed to an in-
crease in the German problem,
some estimating 250,000 Jews
would be forced from Germany in
the next few years by the latest
Hitler decrees. The High Com-
missioner for German Refugees,
James G. McDonald, will resign at
the end of this month and his or-
ganization then will be liquidated.
Mr. McDonald, who was twice
heard by the committee, argued
strongly that the League should
take over this work. Questions by
some committeemen indicated
they fear the establishment of a
permanent League refugee bureau
would encourge Germany to make
the lives of Jews unbearable, but
Mr. McDonald expressed the view
that the Nazi policy would not be
affected by such League action.
The American Joint Distribution
Committee was among the Jewish
organizations heard.
German Jews to Pay for Anti-
* Nazi Agitation Abroad
This dispensation, however, means
a loss of 40 per cent for the Jews
because Germany is using this dis-
pensation to get some of its frozen
credits out of Italy. Since Ger-
many will get full value from the
Jews for its Italian credits the
Jews stand to lose because Ital-
ian currency is below par.
Der Stuermer, Germany's most
notorious anti-Semitic paper ,
which was owned and edited by
Julius Streicher, Nazi party leader
in Franconia and the high priest
of Nazi Jew-baiting, has been sold
to M. Winkler, a member of the
Nazi party. The sale was the re-
sult of Streicher's insistence that
Nazi officials should not own or
edit papers or magazines. There
is some talk that the new owners
of Der Stuermer will moderate
its violent and inflammatory anti-
Semitic tone.
Premier's Speech Alarms Hun-
garian Jews
BUDAPEST (WNS)—Fears of
new anti-Jewish outbreaks are
being expressed in Jewish circles
here as a result of a speech by
Premier Goomboos at Voislen in
which he defended the recent anti-
Semitic riots in the Hungarian
universities. Encouraged by the
Premier's speech, Christian stu-
dents at the University of Buda-
pest have already demanded that
Jewish students be segregated in
the classrooms.
