With tears in their eyes the German delegation today walked out of the conference of the World Federation of Polish Jews following the adoption of a strong anti-Nazi resolution.
The German delegation declared that if a resolution to boycott Germany is adopted they could not join the World Federation.
The resolution adopted by the conference reads:
“Nazi Germany has undertaken not only to exterminate the Jews of Germany but has launched a campaign against Jewry as a whole. Nazi actions are contrary to the principles of humanity and civilization. This conference therefore demands the complete boycott of German products and the cessation of all business relations with barbarous Germany which fights everything liberal and civilized. This conference demands moreover that its affiliated organizations influence the peoples among whom they live to join in the boycott, thus strengthening the downfall of Hitler.”
