Protests Inspired
The protests of the govern-
ments of Iraq, Syria, Egypt,
Yemen and Lebanon against the
Palestine resolution led to a
charge by many Congressmen
that the British Government had
inspired the protests.
Congressmen Ranulf Compton
of Connecticut, in a statement
approving Senator Wagner's re-
jection of Iraq's protest, said that
his first thoughts on learning of
the protests was that they "may
well have been inspired by the
British Government which is in
control of those countries.
Congressman Emanuel Celler
declared that the protests of the
Moslem countries was an "artful
dodge on the part of the British
Colonial Office to support the
White Paper."

made more selective," the At-
torney General added:
"It is too early to determine
what forms that choice may take.
Probably no long term policy
can be outlined until we see what
direction—politically and econom-
ically—the postwar years will
take. Our policies will be guided
primarily by our own needs. But
those needs will necessarily be
influenced, and to an extent de-
fined by our relation to other
countries of the world. Occupa-
tion might be considered in mak-
ing our determinations. Should
we also take into account some
form of geographic control, such
as the admission of immigrants
most fitted to build the develop-
ment of thinly inhabited regions
such as Alaska? Is it possible to
devise and to administer laws
of which the effect would be to
direct the newcomers away from
the areas of congestion and to-
ward areas where population is
sparse and development may be
suffering for want of sufficient
manpower? I do not know; I
simply present the questions.
There are other aspects of this
intricate problem which must
also be considered. Our experi-
ence has shown which races can
be more readily assimilated. This
is a consideration that should
not be overlooked."

Jewish Women Helping
To Make 80 Million
Surgical Dressings

WASHINGTON, D. C. — Wit;
major battles of the war yet to
come, production of surgical
dressings is going forward in
Red Cross workrooms at a rate of
80,000,000 each month. Contrib-
uting substantially to this total
are groups of Jewish women in
all parts of the country.
These dressings are all beg
∎
made at the request of the Army
and Navy. Last year the Red
Cross production surpassed 900,-
000,000, and today these are he.
ing used on the world's battle
fronts to help in the tight of
preserving the lives of our
wounded soldiers and sailors.
Ever since the Red Cross in-
augurated the present program
of production of surgical dress.
ings, Jewish women, both as in-
dividuals and as members of
various organizations, have taken
an active interest in this work.
As one expressed it, the feeling
was that whatever might be done
would not only contribute to the
war effort, but to humanity as
'well.
Reports from national and lo-
cal organizations of Jewish wom-
en all emphasize the importance
they are placing on the produc-
tion of surgical dressings. Th
National Council of Jewish Jun-
iors reports that this phase of
Red Cross service is one of the
most popular and accepted in all
sections. Similar reports have
been received at Red Cross na-
tional headquarters from the Na-
tional Federation of Temple Sis-
terhoods, the National Women's
League of the United Synagogue,
the Women's Supreme Council of
Bnai Brith and other organiza-
tions. Bnai Brith Women and
Girls have turned out more than
3,500,000 such dressings.
"The loyalty, zeal and sacrifice
of Red Cross workers will he
needed more in the coming
months than ever before," said
Mrs. Richard Bissell, national di-
rector of Red Cross Volunteer
Services. "The Red Cross must
make a large proportion of all
dressings needed, and it is a vital
obligation of the Red Cross to
turn out these dressings for the
casualties which must be ex-
pected.
"American men, wounded in
battle, will in a very real sense,
be dependent on the work done
by hundreds of thousands of
American women in Red Cross
chapters throughout the country.
Only by a definite sacrifice of
time and energy, only by a con-
tinued and devoted effort, can
the need be met."
