The cooperation of the League of Nations Labor Office with Jewish societies in Europe for the aid of emigrants was promised by Albert Thomas of the Labor Office in Geneva.

Mr. Thomas, who is here to attend the international conference of the Labor Office, received a delegation of the Emigdirekt headed by Oscar Cohn, former member of the Prussian government. The question of the refugees and particularly the needs of Jewish emigrants were discussed. Mr. Thomas expressed high appreciation of the activities of the Jewish emigrant aid societies and stated that the Labor Office will facilitate the work of Jewish representatives in bringing to the attention of the governments the needs of Jewish migrants. An occasion will present itself at the forthcoming international conference on emigration which will take place in Havana, Cuba, he stated.
