Birmingham University will establish a fund for the creation of temporary research fellowships for scholars displaced by reason of race, religion and politics in accordance with a decision adopted at a meeting today of the most prominent citizens of this second largest British city.
A resolution was adopted at the meeting advocating creation of a trust fund for the preservation of science and learning. The Birmingham citizens promised to contribute 45,000 to the fund.
Sir Charles Robertson, vice chancellor of the University, condemned the anti-Jewish laws of the Third Reich, which “make the situation worse than the Spring of 1933.”
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
