FACILITATING EMIGRATION.
TRUST FUND FOR GERMAN JEWS
(Times Cables.) LONDON, Feb. 16. The Times says that Germany’s proposals for facilitating Jewish emigration appear to allow for an exodus spread over five years—if homes can be found —in the hope of making a controlled and orderly emigration. The memorandum of Mr G. Rublee (chairman of the Inter-Governmental Refugees Committee), brought from Berlin, goes further than the previous assurances.
Germany is prepared to create a trust fund financed by a 25 per cent, levy on the money of the remaining German -Jews. One of their trustees would be a foreign banker. The emigrants would be assisted from the trust fund, be permitted to take some capital goods, and receive training in agriculture and handici-afts in Germany.
