WORLD YOUTH CONGRESS
BRITISH DELEGATES IMPRESSED ABSEHGE OF HA2I REPRESENTATIVES DEPLORED (British Official Wireless.) Press Association—By Telegraph—Copynghi RUGBY, September 6. (Received September 7, at 11 a.m.) Five of the 60 members of the British delegation to the second Youth Congress at Vassar College, New York State, have returned to London. The delegates were impressed with the proceedings of the congress, at which 700 delegates from 54 countries attended, and which they regarded as a tribute to the enthusiasm of the young people from democratic countries for the building of peace. The delegates deplored the absence of any Nazi representatives from Germany, particularly as von Schirasch had declared 1938 to be the year of understanding for German youth. The congress recommended that tours should be arranged under the auspices of the World Youth Congress to further friendship and peace throughout the world.
