Dorothy Thompson today approved, in her syndicated column published in the Herald Tribune here, the plan for emigration of Jews from Germany negotiated by George Rublee. “It is argued against this plan,” she said, “that it assists German exports. It also prevents wholesale suicides. It is an enormous advantage to the emigrants that instead of being permitted to take out a minute fraction or none of their goods in money they can take out a large proportion of it in capital goods — in wealth which can be used to produce wealth abroad.”
