NAZI PERSECUTION
RESOLUTION OF PROTEST
ALBERT HALL MEETING
(Independent Cable Service.)
LONDON, December 2.
A second mass meeting at the Albert Hall today which was addressed by Church and political leaders of all shades of opinion -unanimously passed a resolution of protest against the religious and racial persecution in Germany.
Cardinal Hinsley, Roman Catholic Archbishop of Westminster, said that Nero, who revelled in the persecution of Jews and Christians, now appeared somewhat as a model of righteousness.
The Archbishop of York said: "We desire almost above all things friendship with the German people, and refuse to identify them with all that is done by the Nazis." Mr. Herbert Morrison, Labour M.P. and chairman of the London County Council, contended that the immigration restrictions in Palestine should be relaxed. Sir Archibald Sinclair, leader of the Liberal Opposition, said that Palestine was the country best fitted to receive refugees. _,„_________„___,_,_,___
