The rising tide of Nazi terror in the occupied countries of Europe, highlighted by the recent disclosure that at least 700,000 Jews have been massacred in Poland alone, has prompted the heads of eight of the governments-in-exile to send an eighteen-page memorandum to President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Churchill, Premier Stalin and Pope Pius, it was learned here today.
Attached to the memorandum, which presents details of the Nazi mass-murders in the different countries, is a note requesting the governments of the United States, England, the Soviet Union and the Vatican to do all in their power to check the reign of terror which the Germans have instituted for the civilian population of the occupied countries.
The memorandum and note were signed by the leaders of the governments of Poland, Belgium, Holland, Greece, Norway, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia and by the Fighting French.
