Mr. Speaker. Lessing Rosenwald appeared before the House Foreign Affairs Committee to oppose the flood resolution which calls for the opening of the doors of Palestine to Jewish refugees. Jews are fleeing from new pogroms in Poland. Jews cannot return to their erstwhile homes because of the festering sores of an intense antiSemitism. Immigration barriers are up all over the world. There is no place where they are not unwanted save in Palestine. Yet Rosenwald urges -delay while thousands fall daily from starvation on the roadsides or languish in concentration camps. Delay is fatal. The winters blast cannot be stayed by Rosenwald or a committee of inquiry.
