New plans for preventing Jewish colonists in the Crimea from returning to their townships in White Russia and the Ukraine were announced to-day by the O.R.T. Organisation.

The announcement says that the O.R.T. has just completed the establishment of a number of enterprises which will keep 1,000 Jews busy in the Crimea during the whole of the winter.

The O.R.T. also announced to-day the opening of a number of new factories for wood-working, hat-making, toy-making and embroidery in several cities in the Ukraine. Preference will be given in these factories to the declassed Jews and the members of their families.

The entire Soviet Press reproduced to-day the interview which Mr. Bernard Shaw gave to the Moscow correspondent of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency expressing his views on Jewish problems.

Reprinting this interview from foreign papers which have arrived in Moscow, the Soviet press emphasises those parts of the interview where stress is laid by Mr. Bernard Shaw on the correctness of Soviet Russia’s methods in dealing with national minorities.
