Dr. Emil Kafka, president of the Prague Jewish Community and a representative of the Supreme Council of Jewish Communities in the “protectorate,” arrived here today to negotiate with Jewish organizations on the urgent problem of emigration from the “protectorate” as well as assistance for Bohemian Jews. Dr. Kafka came here from Paris, where he spent two weeks conferring with representatives of the Joint Distribution Committee, the HIAS-ICA Emigration Association, the World ORT Federation and other Jewish bodies. Morris C. Troper, European chairman of the J.D.C., assured him of American Jewry’s sympathy and promised that help would be extended. Similar promises were given by Baron Robert de Rothschild in the name of French Jewry.
