The Germans’ anti-Semitie propaganda has left deep roots in the liberated countries, but the anti-Jewish feelings prevailing there are not anti-Semitism in the sense of Jew-hatred, but an expression of unwillingness to recognize specific Jewish needs, Dr. Arieh Kubovitsky, a leader of the World Jewish Congress, declared here today upon his return from a visit to liberated France and Belgium.
Addressing a press conference, Dr. Kubovitsky spoke of the necessity of taking Jewsih children from Catholic institutions and private non-Jewish hones, and placing them in Jewish childrens’ homes. He also emphasized that there is a danger that Jewish refugees may be forced to leave, prematurely, the neutral countries where they have been given refuge during the war.
