The “Frankfurter Zeitung” publishes figures relating to immigration to Palestine during the first nine months of this year. The total immigration, as the N. Z.-Korrespondenz reports, amounted to 28,450 people, of whom 27,263 were Jews. The number of Jews who emigrated from Germany during these nine months was 4,935.
In 1933, the total number of German Jews who emigrated to Palestine was 5,392, so that the total number of Jews who have left Germany since National Socialism took over power in Germany, with Palestine as their goal, amounted to more than 10,000.
The emigration of German Jews to Palestine has gone down during the last months, the report adds. While in July it was still 729, in August it was only 513 and in September 461.
