A proposal by Capt. Victor Chazalet, British M.P., for a territorialist solution of the Jewish emigration problem was hailed today by the Warszawski Dizennik Narodowy, organ of the anti-Semitic National Democratic (Endek) party. The newspaper said editorially that the proposal showed a growing understanding among western countries of the Polish Jewish problem. It added that a yearly emigration of 30,000 to 40,000 Polish Jews, as proposed by Capt. Cazalet, was insufficient. It asserted that the plan should be supplemented by introduction of anti-Jewish laws, since “experience shows that anti-Jewish laws are the only means of breaking Jewish opposition and compelling Jews seriously to consider emigration.”
