An advisory committee for the purpose of protecting holders of Nansen passports was formed here today at the initiative of the representative of the Nansen office in Germany.
Several Jews are members of the Committee, which includes a number of Russians as well. The Committee will offer its advice on all matters affecting Nansen passport holders and will bring their cases before the League of Nations if necessary.
