Developments in Germany are dimming hopes for long-range emigration and increasing the urgency of finding settlement opportunities with the least possible delay, Myron C. Taylor, American vice-chairman of the Intergovernmental Refugee Committee, declared tonight in a broadcast over the WJZ network of NBC before sailing tomorrow on the Normandie to attend the committee directorate’s meeting in London next week.
So long as there is hope of obtaining the German Government’s cooperation, the committee will continue to explore every possibility of obtaining it, Mr. Taylor said. “If that cooperation cannot be secured, we must redouble our efforts to solve the problem without it.” He added that “we are still supported by the hope that Germany will receive us for a fair discussion and analysis of the question.”
