The British Labor Party has decided to launch a large-scale educational campaign among British workers designed to win the utmost support for measures by the United Nations which would bring a halt to the atrocities being perpetrated by the Nazis upon the civilian populations of occupied countries – including hundreds of thousands of Jews – it was learned here today.
This decision by the national executive board of the Labor Party follows the recent conference of leaders of European Socialist parties on the subject of Nazi atrocities, which requested that the Labor Party take some action.
A joint resolution by the national executive of the Labor Party and the general council of the Trade Union Congress issued today calls upon the governments of the United Nations “for solemn assurances that all who have taken part in the organization and perpetration of these outrages from the highest to the lowest shall be brought to stern justice at the close of the war.”
