A resolution pledging to fight against Hitlerism and Communism “with every ounce of energy that we possess” and to aid the return of the Polish Jews “to a normal, free national life” was adopted by a large mass meeting at Cooper Union on Sunday night, called by the Jewish National Workers’ Alliance to condemn the Russo-German agreement.
CORRECTION
In the story in yesterday’s JTA News regarding the article on “Jews in the World War” in the Contemporary Jewish Record, a phrase was inadvertently omitted from a quotation, the meaning of which was thereby changed. The correct quotation is as follows, with the omitted part underlined. “…while the few advantages and privileges gained by Jews following the concluded peace were either illusory, as in the case of the minority rights, or were never fully realized, as in the case of the Jewish National Home in Palestine, the losses to the Jewish people were real, far-going and in most cases irreparable.”
