Italians Rail at Jews
a
The Italian Press, presumably
with full government approval,
has launched a violent anti-
Semitic campaign demanding the
complete elimination of Jews
from European life. The keynote
of the editorial campaign is that
the new Europe will have no
Jews,
no gold and no economic
•
barriers."
Writing in La Stampa, impor-
'tant Italian newspaper published
in Turin, Alfredo Signoretti
,stated that a preliminary neces-
sary condition for the new Eu-
rope "is the total and definite
elimination of Jews from Eu-
rope."
Blaming the Jews for all of
Europe's woes, the Italian editor
said that the Jews must be treat-
ed with "cold inflexibility" and
driven as far as possible from
Europe. Signoretti suggested that
the Jews be exiled to Madagascar.
"The Jews must be sent as far
:away as possible and their re-
turn prevented," the Fascist pa-
per said. "It is an absurd ex-
periment to settle the Jews in
Palestine on the shores of the
Mediterranean, where they re-
main in contact with European
life.
"The suggestion that the Jews
:settle in Madagascar is surely the
happiest solution to the problem.
This gigantic island has a warm
(climate and agriculture could
:support millions without difficulty.
"But, whether the European
.Jewish population is exiled to
Madagascar or to some other spot,
some emigration project to lib-
(erate Europe of its Jews must be
carried out."
Nazis Arrest Hundreds of Dutch
Jews
Ifftgdrvls of Dutch Jews, in-
a
3
cluding many prominent leaders,
have been arrested and sent to
concentration camps, charged
an
with provoking
spirit in Holland sod inciting
nciting the
Dutch people to :anti-Nazi acts,
it was reported here.
The Nazi overlords have en-
countered numerous difficulties in
hammering the Dutch people to
submission and have found it nec-
essary to take drastic action
against Jews and non-Jews. The
Nazis have frequently raised the
charge that the Dutch people are
furnishing the British with vital
military information.
It was learned that 600 young
Jewish refugees from Germany,
part of the batch of 12,000 Jew-
ish refugees which had been
transported from Holland to the
Lublin Jewish "remrvation" in
Poland, have been returned to
Holland because of lack of space.
A report from Norway stated
that the Nazis have confiscated
all Jewish property, factories mull
bank deposits.
British Government Pledges to
Protect German Refugees
Fi-ore Nazis
In a move ,designed to alk-
yl/11'e the tension ;among German
refvees who fled Ics, Great Brit-
ain, the British government for-
mally extended its assurance that
under tso circumstances -would the
government hand the refugees
over to _Nazi Germany.
The pledge was made by Prime
Minister Winston Churchill who
said in the House of Commons;
It is inconceivable to me that
His Majesty's Government, now
or at any future date, would
hand over to their oppressors
persons who have sought refuge
in this country from persecution."
The Prime Minister's declara-
tion was received with joy by
the thousands of German-Jewish
refugees here, who have been
very apprehensive since the new
French government, headed by
Marshal Petain, agreed to turn
over all German refugees in
French territories to the Nazi au-
thorities.
At the same time, Home Sec-
retary Sir John Anderson an-
nounced that orders had been
issued to the police not to intern
anti-Nazi refugees — Jews are
considered in this category—who
are skilled craftsmen and expert
specialists. German refugees,
whose loyalty to the British gov-
ernment can be established, will
be permitted to volunteer for ac-
tive service.
Farmers among the German
refuge,,,, it was said, will be sent
to Canada where they will be
given agricultural tasks, very es-
sential in Britain's fight against
Hineris m .
Anti-Semitism Sweeps France;
New Restrictions Aonnunced
LISBON. (WNS) — While the
ew pro-Fascist" government of
Marshal Petain wrestled with the
problem of feeding millions of
homeless French refugees, the
press and radio launched a bitter
attack on the Jews, foreshadow-
ing official anti-Semitic measures.
Leading the attack was the
Paris Soir, the largest daily news-
paper in France before the Nazi
occupation, which stated in an
editorial: "We witnessed the vir-
tual occupation of France by
Jews who attacked the nerve cen-
ters of the nation to obtain con-
trol of the levers of command.
The total solution of the Jewish
problem is one essential of our
recovery."
Noting thct Nazi Chancellor
Hitler had placed the blame for
the war which reduced France to
the status of a minor state on
"Jewish capitalist war mongers,"
the Paris Soir demanded that the
new government "open discussion
which will throw full light on
responsibilities for the war and
our disasters."
Jewish homes in Paris have
been requisitioned for the use of
Nazi civilian oflkla!s. Thirty thou-
sand of the French capital's Jew-
ish population of 200,000 have
remained in Paris, awaiting their
fate. Many of the Jews still in
Paris were unable to leave the
capital because of lack of funds
or a number of other reasons.
Many Jewish refugees from
Nazi Germany in Penis refused
to flee before the occupation,
feeling that It was a futile ges-
ture since they had fled from one
country to another only to find
Nazi troops following them short-
ly afterwards.
Hundreds of French Jews of
Russian origin have petitioned the
Soviet Consulate to place them
under its protection. The Soviet
Consulate held that it could not
place these Jews under its pro-
tection until it receives word
from Moscow. A spokesman for
the Consulate said that it ex-
pected word from Moscow before
the end of the month.
The United States and other
consulates still in Paris are be-
sieged by thousands of Jews
seeking visas. Meanwhile, Jewish
shopkeepers in the Temple and
Belleville quarters of Paris are
beginning to reopen their shops.
File Plan with SEC to Sell Stock
to Aid Refugees from
N azi Germany
WASHINGTON. (WNS)—The
Dominican Republic Settlement
Association, Inc., which has an
agreement with the Dominican
Republis whereby 100,000 refu-
gees, mostly Jews from Ger-
many and other Nazi-dominated
lands, will be settled in that
country, has filed a statement
with the Securities and Exchange
Commission outlining the pro-
posed public sale of 9,569 shares
of common stock at $1,000 per
share, the funds to be used to
aid refugees.
The proceeds of the stock sale
will be used, according to the
statement, to provide transporta-
tion expenses for settlers, acquire
land for them, construct build-
ings, purchase equipment and fi-
nance general supervision. The
first contingent of Jewish refu-
gees have 'already arrived at the
Dominican Republic.
The statement filed by the
Dominican Republic Settlement
Association occasioned surprise
among officials of the SEC since
it made no promise of any mone-
tary return to those who pur-
chase the securities. Usually,
registration statements include
promises of great profits to pros-
pective buyers.
The -statement said: "The cor-
poration makes no promises or
representations and gives no
guarantees as to the results of
its business activities, its pri-
mary purpose being to aid refu-
trees to settle in the Dominican
Republic."
It added, however, that it
would seek to conduct its busi-
ness efficiently and economically,
and, if possible, to conserve its
assets and pay a modest return
on its stock."
General Rafael L. Trujillo, ex-
president and first citizen of the
Dominican Republic, turned over
his 26,000-acre Sosua tract to the
Dominican Republic settlement
Association for the colonization
of the refugees. The Association
is headed by James N. Rosenberg
of New York.
The refugee - colonists have
been trranted by the Dominican
Republic government "full oppor-
tunity to continue their lives and
occupations, free from molesta-
tion, discrimination, or persecu-
tion, with full freedom of religion
and religious ceremonials, with
equality of opportunities and civ-
il, legal and economic rights, as

Federal, State Officials to Confer
on Treatment of Aliens
The treatment of aliens during
the present emergency will be
decided upon at a conference on
Aug. 5 and 6 between Federal
and State officials, it was learned
here. The conference was called
to study law-enforcement prob-
lems of national defense.
It was said the Federal offi-
cials are anxious that loyal aliens
shall not be subjected to un-
warranted attacks or discrimina-
tion. Federal officials have often
expressed the need for the in-
dividual States to leave the per-
secution of "disloyal" elements
among the aliens to the Federal
Government.
Speakers at the conference will
be Attorney General Robert H.
Jackson, Governor Vanderbilt of
Rhode Island, John Lord O'Brian,
former special assistant to the
Attorney General during the
World War, and J. Edgar Hoover,
head of the Federal Bureau of
Investigation.
