Hope that the American government will act together with other signatories of the Versailles Treaty to insure protection of minorities in Europe was expressed Friday in a statement issued on behalf of the American Jewish Congress and signed by Rabbi Stephen S. Wise and Bernard S. Deutsch.

The statement was issued after a special meeting of the foreign relations committee of the organization, called to deal with the implications of Poland’s refusal to cooperate with the League of Nations on minority rights.

Representatives of the American Jewish Congress in Geneva are now acting in concert with other minority groups to bring about preservation of minority rights protection, the congress statement revealed.
