Jewish history will term the Hitlerite auto-da-fe of Jewish literature a moral pogrom but the Jewish spirit will remain unperturbed, Chief Rabbi M. Schorr declared here last night at a protest meeting in which the leading thinkers and scientists of Poland were represented.

Resolutions of protest were adopted and a five-minute period of silence observed.
