Germany. the Balkan countries. central Europe are not places of refuge for them. They look to Palestine. and what do they find? In the face of this tragedy Great Britain dares to shut the gates to their immigration. in spite of its solemn. promise. A promise was made by Great Britain to open the gates of immigration into the Holy Land so that Jews could establish there a national homeland. Had that promise been kept. then the thousands upon thousands of Jews whose bones litter the fields of Europe. and thousands upon thousands more whose ashes have been scattered to the four winds. might be living today in peace in Palestine. Great Britain must not refuse to grant this request of our President for immigration certificates for these dying Jews of Europe. We in the United States owe a duty. We in Congress must pointedly and frankly tell Great Britain we expect that nation to keep its solemn pledged word.
