Stressing the need for unity of action against Hitlerism, which is making itself felt in South America, the local provisional committee for uniting all South American Jewish communities has sent a memorandum to Buenos Aires groups requesting that they join the unification movement.
The ultimate aim of the committee is the creation of a body which will be empowered to represent all Jews of South America both in internal affairs and at the World Jewish Congress, preparations for which are now in progress here.
