Failure of world Jewry to stand loyally by the Jewish victims of the Hitler terror would be interpreted as giving the greatest encouragement possible to the Nazi program of annihilation of Jews, Morris Rothenberg, president of the Zionist Organization of America, last night told members of the Theodor Herzl Society at a meeting at the Central Jewish Institute, 125 East. Eighty-fifth street.
Calling on world Jewry “to exert itself with the utmost energy and vigor on behalf of the German Jews.” Mr. Rothenberg gave a detailed statement of the steps that have been taken for integrating German refugees into the Jewish life of Palestine.
The Theodor Herzl Society was recently formed and is comprised of German-Speaking Zionists.
