Scope and Content

A memorandum about the history of the persecution of German Jews since the Nazi Party came to power and the occupation of Austria. There is additional persecution and danger to Jewry in central European countries. The Council for German Jewry was formed to co-ordinate the efforts of the British and American Organizations and to meet the aggravation of the economic distress of German Jewry. The young Jewish generation must be prepared for productive manual occupation in the countries to which emigration must be directed. The memorandum furthers discusses the opportunities for occupation and professional training of the emigrants as well as the numbers and costs of emigration. The refugees are an international social problem which cannot be solved by philanthropy alone or by any efforts of the Jewish communities alone, but requires a combination of Government action and voluntary organization.
