Croll Condemns Mass
M,trders in Genocide
Debate at Ottawa

dress in support of the UN Gen-
ocide Pact in the Canadian Par-
liament, preceding the Vote that
ratified the convention, David
Croll of Toronto. member of
Parliament, delivered a strong
address, in the course of which I
he stated:
"Genocide is mass murder. It
is a modern name for an old
crime. It means the destruc-
tion of whole groups of people
just because they belong to par-
ticular groups. The group may
be radical or national. or it may
be religious. It may be a par-
ticular ethnical or racial group. I
The destruction may take var-
ious forms. Genocide has des-
troyed some 20 million persons
in the last fifty years. I quote
these figures with great humil-
ity. In the first half of the
twentieth century alone the
crime of genocide was per-
petrated against. the following
human groups: Armenians. 10,-
000 at the turn of the century;
Jews, several hundred thousand
in 1902 and 1905 in Russia and
in other European countries:
Armenians, 1.200.000 in 1915 and
1916; Greeks, about 500.000 in
Smyrna in 1922: Ukrainians.
millions of them since the oc-
cupation of their territory by
the Soviet: Jews. under the
nazis. 6 million; Serbs. 800,000
in the so-called independent
: state of Croatia; Poles. 3 million
since 1939; Lithuanians, 600,000
since 1941 and still continuing:
Latvians. 400.000 since 1941 and
still continuing; Estonians. be-
tween a quarter and a third of
the entire population since 1941
and still continuing.''
Mr. Croll described his visit in
the gas chambers in Nazi Ger-
many and made a powerful ap-
peal against repetition of the
horrible crimes.
