McDonald chairman and Dr. Samuel McCrae Cavert secretary. The committee made a preliminary survey of the ways In which it can aid in the relief of political refugees and their settlement in different parts of the world. within the framework of existing legislation in the countries which have accepted to participate in the Intergovernmental Committee for Refugees. I am sure that the citizens of the United States and of many other countries will follow with deep concern the work of this advisory committee. and will welcome information that its efforts to meet the situation are proving successful. While I am gratified to know that our Government and 30 other governments have agreed to cooperate in order to facilitate the emigration from Germany and Austria of political refugees. I feel constrained to observe that I experience a feeling of regret that these governments did not submit protests to the Nazi government against its indefensible and wicked treatment of hundreds of thousands of German and Austrian citizens. Our Government. as well as other governments. has made representations by way of recommendation or protest when policies were pursued which were regarded as inhuman and violative of the rights of citizens.
