Industries established by refugees from Nazi countries now in England will provide employment after the war for at least 100,000 British workers, it is estimated in an article published in the Spectator, one of Britain’s leading weekly publications.
The growth of anti-Semitic propaganda in England, spread by fascist elements, has prompted the League to Eradicate Racialism, which hitherto has devoted its efforts to seeking equality for the colored peoples, to take up the fight against anti-Jewish agitation.
At a special conference of the League today, Pref. C.E.M. Joad, prominent author and broadcaster, who presided, pointed out that the “anti-Semitic manifestations witnessable in England today were unthinkable twenty or thirty years ago. Englishmen then looked upon Czarist Russia, Rumania and other countries where anti-Semitism was practiced as ‘ lower countries.'” Prof. Joad added that England has not known anti-Semitism since the time of Richard the Lion-Hearted in the 13th century, and called upon Englishmen to exert all efforts to see that anti-Semitism remains unknown here.
