President Roosevelt. father of
the Evian Conference, was among
the first to set up special
committee to investigate pos
sibilities in different countries
suitable for immigration. The
committee sent experts to- British
Guiana, to the Dominican Repub-
lie and to the Philippine Islands.
If ten thousand refugees find room
shortly on the Island of Mindanao,
credit for it will have to be given
to President Roosevelt. If the Do
minican Republic should really
open her doors to $4,000 refugee
families, it will be also thanks to
President Roosevelt's efforts.
Roosevelt, again, had hand in
establishment of the million dollar
Coordinating Foundation to fl
nance refugee work.
simultaneously with the interest
shown by President Roosevelt, the
British Government has also
shown special interest in the fate
Of the refugees. Greater facilities
were extended during the past
year to the entry Of refugee child
rem into England; no difficulties
were encountered by the refugees
desiring to come to England to
await their turn to emigrate to
the United States, provided an
American visa was already prom
Used to them and their mainte-
nance during their stay in Eng
land was guaranteed; a large
camp for five thousand refugees
has been established in England,
making possible the admission of
five thousand victims of Nazi per-
secution from the Third Reich.
Since Hitler's advent to power
no less than 76 million dollars has
been spent for refugee work in
money and food by Jewish and
other relief organizations. Ten
million dollars of this amount was
given in cash.
How long can private organiza-
lions be expected to continue this
work Of assistance? How long
will they be able to collect such
vast sums? People in the end
must grow tired. of GIVING And
the refugee problem is only at it's
very beginning.
The British Government, there
fore, has announced its intention
to put Government funds at the
disposal of colonization work, pro-
vided other Governments will Join

in this action. The question Of
using Government funds for relief
work was raised by Jewish relief
organizations a year ago at the
Evian Conference. But then the
British delegate stated expressly
that the Evian Committee could
be established only if the Govern
ments represented on it were not
to be asked to participate in fl
nancing the refugee work. Now,
year later, the same Lord Win
terton, Britain's representative in
the Evian Committee, himself
made the proposal to contribute to
the solution of the refugee prob
lem with the aid of Government

RhOdeSia and New Caledonia.
The refugee problem reached its
tragic climax the past year. What
is the significance of the "St
Louis" tragedy compared wit
scores of other refugee ships
wandering for months over the
seas without food, without drink
ing water, without any prospects
of being allowed to land the pas
sengers in some port?
Thousands of Jewish refugees,
men, women and children, after
having left behind them every
thing they possessed, were herded
on board of old, frail little boats,
stalking their lives in an attempt
to escape from the Third Reich.
Hungry and thirsty they wander
ed for weeks and months from
shore to shore without being adj
mitted anywhere. Some, in mo-
ments of despair, have thrown
themselves into the sea. Others
have persisted from starvation and
disease. A few hundred narrowly
escaped being drowned when their
boat caught fire on the high seas.
It was impossible to let things go
on like that. No longer could this
human tragedy continue to escape

the attention of the world. II
had become too great and toe
hopeless to remain a purely Jew
ish affair, a matter to be dealt
with by the Jewish relief organi-
cations alone.
Wandering ships, on the one
hand, and increased pressure from
the German authorities, on the
other, made it clear during the
year just ended that the refugee
problem was not exclusively a
Jewish problem. 1t has become a
problem of international concern
Jews have been forced by the
Gestapo to cross the frontier into
Poland, Holland, France, Switzer-
land-into any country having a
common frontier with Germany.
Jews have been forced by the
Gestapo aboard German ships and
have been carried to Chile, to Bo-
livia and above all to Shanghai
where holders of German pass
ports are allowed to land without
a visa. They have been forced to
travel in sealed trains from the
Third Reich to the Black Sea port
of Constanza to find their way
from there-legally or Illegally
to Palestine.
A majority of the DanZig Jews
were compelled to board German
boats without prospect of being
allowed to land anywhere. These
ships are still wandering in Greek
waters. One hundred thousand
Jews from Austria alone were
forced by the Nazi authorities to
enligrate on small Danube boats
or in larger vessels from Trieste.
And in Germany, the Nazis
launched a special drive against
all Jews of Polish nationality,
"stateless" Jews and all those with
no prospects of being taken out
by relatives abroad.
The world was made to feel
the Nazi methods of dumping
human beings. Fifteen thousand
refugees driven across the frontier
by the Gestapo entered Belgium
within a short space of time. In
Holland, the number of refugees
has reached $4,000; in France,
$4,000; in Switzerland, $4,000; in
Poland, 10000; in England, about
10000. For the most part these
refugees were robbed of all their
possessions and thrown upon the
mercy of foreign countries.
The victims of Nazi pressure
were interned in refugee camps
such as Zyonszyn in Poland, Marx
plas in Belgium and similar places
in Holland and England. In the
camps, the refugees are kept Sc
cluded from the rest of the popu-
lation. The camps are financed
by the Joint Distribution Com
mittee and partly from funds of
local relief organizations.

hight it seemed that even more ef-

night it seemed that even more ef-
fort was made IN this direction.
Pink roses, begonias and ferns
banked the imposing mirrored
mantles in the east room. On the
four historic end tables in this room
there were clusters of begonias and
ferns while in the tall vases there
were sprays of pink carnations.
Going into the green room one en-
joyed the fragrance of the pink
roses which were arranged with
stevia and in the Impressive blue
room where the hosts received there
was screen of palms and ferns
sprayed with white chrysanthemuns.
The adjoining red room boasted
Laddie carnations. a rich salmon
pink which blended with the red
hangings and other appointments.
Over the great paneled mantle in
the state dining room was a mass
of cibotium fern festooned with
bright red carnations and on the
long buffet table. where light re-
freshments were served, huge silver
bowls held red roses.
In the red corridor the large
marble tubs were filled with ferns
and reddish bronze pom poms and
this same combination was used to
fill in the inches of the corridor
as well as to flank the stairway.
Presidential Party
Greeted by Fanfare.
The reception was opened with
the fanfare of trumpets. Preceded
by the White House aides, the presi-
Dental party crossed the red corri-
dor to the strains of Hail to the
Chief"
The President was escorted by an
aide, and walking just back of him
was Mrs Roosevelt with Brig. Gen.
Edwin M Watson, U. S. A.
Mrs. Roosevelt wore a rich cream
color brocade gown and a beautiful
shawl of exquisite ivory color lace.
Her corsage was of orchids in an
unusual shade of pink.
Then followed the members of
the Presidents official family.
The hosts first entered the red
room and then took their places in

The members of the cabinet and
their wives remained in the red room
for sometime and then mingled with

ception parlors.

Cows Didn't Outshine
Diplomats Uniforms.
The gowns of the women could
not be said to outshine the costumes
worn by many of the men, for the
resplendent uniforms of some of the
diplomats were equally colorful.
One of the most impressive of these
was that worn by the military at
tache of the British Embassy, Col.
R. V. Read, c. V. O., D. S. O., M. c.,
whose bright red coat stood out in
marked contrast to the black uni
form worn by the Hungarians,
whose costumes, though dark, were
most striking, with jaunty short
capes, high boots reaching above
the knee, and dress swords in black
scabbards.
Medals, too. attracted much at
tention, for at this most important
of diplomatic functions in the Capt.
tai every official symbol of honors
won is worn by its possessor. The
Ambassador of Mexico, DR.. Don
Francisco Castillo Najera, who is a
physician and poet as we'll as a
brilliant diplomat, wore par
ticularly important looking array of
medals, large both in size and in
numbers, across the front of his
coat.
Anent colorful uniforms, one must
not fail to mention M. Witold Wan
koWicz, retiring Counselor of the
Polish Embassy whose red coat and
gold braid equaled the uniform Of
the British Attache in splendor if
not in brilliance of color. Nine.
Wankowicz, who has been acting as
ranking hostess at the Polish En-
bassy wore black, the soft silk fash
loned on Grecian lines and falling
into a short train. Emerald clips in
antique gold caught the square
neckline of her gown and she wore
an antique gold necklace and a
brooch which have been in her fam
lily for several generations. M. and
Nine WankoWicz were accompanied
by their daughter, Mile Marie Wan
koWicz. whose frock was of pale blue
tulle with many tiny silver stars
over the full skirt and fitted bodice.
She also wore a diamond brooch at
the throat of the gown.

ticher's gown of black silk was with

plain and her daughter wore white

The Naval Attache. Vice Admiral
Robert Witthoeft- -Emden, was &C
companied by Frau Witthoeft-
Emden, who returned in the late
autumn after spending several
months of the summer in Germany
Her costume last evening was of
white satin made on straight lines
and very plain, the only touch of
color being the emerald buckle at
the belt line in front. Her orna-
ments were diamonds and emeralds.
Frau Windels. wife of the Minister
Attache of the Embassy. comparative
newcomers in the circle, wore gold
metal cloth and her ornaments were
diamonds.
The First Secretary of the Embassy
and Frau Tannenberg, who have
been popular here since their arrival
several years ago. were there, Frau
Tannenberg wearing white crepe, the
skirt draped to the back where full
ness gave the effect of hustle and
the bodice was held by rhinestone
straps and had a rhinestone clip
in front.
Others who arrived on the scene
well in advance of the opening of
the reception were the Ambassador
of the Union of Soviet Socialist Re-
publics and Nine Oumansky and the
Soviet Embassy staff. Nine. Ouman-
sky wore French blue satin dress
with cluster of orchids.

The Minister of Finland, Mr..

Scene of Magnificence
And Splendor.
The scene in the state suite last
night was one of magnificence and
splendor. There were flowers
everywhere. The crystal chandeliers
elittered with light, and a soft ac-
compartment to the babble of
foreign tongues heard during the
evening was the delightful music
played by the scarlet coated
musicians of the United States
Marine Corps Orchestra.
The blossoms. so lavishily used
to give a fitting setting for the
beautiful gowns and costly jewels
worn by the women from all corners
