HOLD CONCLAVE ON 'PALESTINE' IN WASHINGTON Appeal to Great Britain to ' Implement "Solemn Pledges" HEAR MURPHY SPEAK Henry Monsky Named an Honorary Chairman of U. P. A. Henry Monsky, who was one of the principal speakers at the > banquet climaxing the sessions of the National Conference on Palestine held last week-end in Washington, was named an honorary chairman of the United Palestine Appeal.. . . , 'In his speech Sunday evening Mr. Monsky termed the deyel©pment of Palestine a "thrillIng chapter in Jewish history."

He said that the many solutions which have been suggested for the refugee problem should be carefully explored, but that it cannot be gajnsaid that Palestine is perhaps the most outstanding and realistic single opportunity for. resettlement of large numbers of persecuted Jews. , "Look upon Palestine as a national home, as a cultural center, as a haven of refuge; as you will—upon whatever basis yon prefer, the many and effect . tire instrumentalities for the irobnilding of Palestine comniand respect and are entitled to the suport of every Jew interested in the problem of his people."

Jildge Fisher to

Details of a secretly printed "Yellow Book," divulged, among other things, that arrangements have been made with Brazil whereby 3,000 "non-Aryan" German Catholics are' being allowed to immigrate as a special tribute to Pope Plus XIII. All the information,i,n the "Yelloy Book" is staid to. be publicly known except the passage about the Vatican's efforts on behalf of persecuted Jews, which says in part: "The concern for non-Aryans Murphy Pr/ > "Starthas been part of the thoughts and ling Dej •"*» i ents" activity of. the Holy See in regard e to social and international pacifi' "I * 3? cation.
