The proposal by Dr. Judah L. Magnes that all Jews wear a yellow badge as a symbol of solidarity with the Jews in Nazi-held territories who are forced to wear such badges was adopted here today by the Bnei Akiba section of the British Mizrachi Youth Organization.
The badge which will be worn by members of the group is in the shape of the symbols of the Torah-Avodah movement: the tablets of the ten commandments and a hammer. The yellow color was chosen “to express solidarity with our brethren who are suffering under the yoke of Nazi oppression.”
