of which is the official Hitler
news agency, Transocean. Anti-
Jewish radio broadcasts praise of
the Aryan laws, anonymous anti-
Semitic leaflets and efforts to
link the Jews to Communism have
resulted in attempts to restrict
Jewish immigration. This propa-
ganda is particularly strong in
Chile Argentina, Peru, Colombia,
Mexico, Guatemala and Costa
Rica, Mr. Graiver said. In the
latter country the entire press
has begun an agitation to isolate
the Polish-Jewish colony and to
create special laws prohibiting
peddling, and a decree has been
issued which means the closing
of Jewish immigration.

Wise Flays Opponents of World
Jewish Con gress in London
Speech
LONDON (WNS) — Emphasiz-
ing that the World Jewish Con-
great' will meet at Geneva on
Aug. 8, notwithstanding any op-
position that has been voiced or
will develop, Dr. Stephen S. Wise,
president of the American Jew-
lab Congress and newly-elected
president of the Zionist Organiza-
tion of America, scored the op-
ponents of the World Congress
in a speech delivered before the
National Conference of Jewish
Organizations here at which rep-
resentatives of 264 organizations
were present and 16 delegates to
represent British Jewry at Gen-
eva were elected. Defining the
"real, fears" of opponents of the
Geneva gathering as "the dread
that something other and more
than philanthropy will be sought
as the solvent of the Jewish prob-
lem, which would mean the pass-
ing of the regime of philanthropy
in World Jewry," Dr. Wise
stressed that public discussion of
Jewish affairs is most desirable,
and that the World Jewish Con-
gress means "the organization of
Jewish selferespect and Jewish
courage."
"I cannot refrain from sug-
gesting," said Dr. Wise in the
course of his speech, "that the
opponents of the Congress, how-
ever well-meaning, might earnest-
ly seek to achieve something of
humility. The world over they
opposed Ilerzl and Zionism. 40
years ago; 20 years ago they
fought against Louis D. Brandeis
and the American Jewish Con-
gress—in England, no less than
in America, three years ago, they
fought against resolute public
protest against the crimes of the
Nazi regime against freedom and
civilization; again they fought
against the use of one of the few
formidable weapons of the anti.
Nazi cause, namely, the boycott
against Nazi goods and services;
though the boycott is nothing
more than non-violent economic
resistence to wrong."
Dr. Wise expressed deep sor-
row at the death of his lifelong
friend, Dr. S. Parkes Cadman,
and urged that a fitting memorial
be held to commemorate Dr. Cad-
man's friendship and understand-
ing of Jewish problems.
Great Britain has thus far fail-
ed to carry out its promises to
suppress terrorism in Palestine,
Dr. Wise told the Palcor News
Agency, adding that Great Bri-
tain "has everything to gain and
nothing to lose by firmly refusing
to be cowed by acts of terror of
a few hundred bandits and as-
sassins."
