Advice to American Jews to emigrate to Great Britain because of the pressure of anti-Semitism in the United States was offered by Viscount Castlerosse, writing in the London “Sunday Express.”
“If I were a Jewish American I would take the next boat for England,” the Viscount writes. “There is less anti-Semitic feeling in England than in any other country in the world, including Palestine. On the other hand, the Jews have a wretched time in America. Why do not American Jews come to England where money talks so loudly that it drowns out the lisp. We would be fools not to make them welcome here,” the Viscount writes.
