Morris C. Troper, European director of the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, has cut short a stay in Rome to leave for Paris and organize an office of the J. D. C. in Switzerland.

On his arrival here Friday Troper discussed the refugee situation with Myron C. Taylor, President Roosevelt’s envoy to the Vatican; U.S. Ambassador William Philipps and others.
