Existence of an agreement between the German Embassy at London and Sir Herbert Samuel, noted Anglo-Jewish leader, is disclosed in the Frankfurter Zeitung in references to the postponed Jewish Economic Conference which is to take up the question of boycotting German goods.
The paper attacks Leonard Montefiore, president of the Anglo-Jewish Association, and Neville Laski, president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, for their alleged failure to disapprove openly of the boycott conference, which, the paper holds, is contrary to the arrangement with the German Ambassador.
