A purely philanthropic basis for the solution of the German Jewish problem is inadequate and the problem must be attacked from a different angle, the Joint Foreign Committee, which represents British Jewry in matters of foreign policy, declared today in a statement issued in connection with the agreement reached for a united front of British Jewry.
As a result of the agreement, several outstanding leaders in Anglo-Jewish life have been added to the committee. Among these are Chief Rabbi Joseph Herman Hertz, Norman Bentwich, D’Avigdor Goldsmid, Sir Robert Waley Cohen, Sir Philip Hartog, Lord Alfred Melchett, Major H. L. Nathan, Otto M. Schiff
