The Government and people Of the United
States have given support to the concept Of q
Jewish national home in Palestine ever since
the termination of the first World War, which
resulted in the freeing of a large area Of the
Near East, including Palestine, and the estab-
ishment of a number of independent states
which are now members of the United Nations.
The United States, which contributed its blood
and resources to the winning of that war, could
not divest itself of a certain responsibility for
the manner in which the freed territories were
disposed of, or for the fate of the peoples lib
Grated at that time. 1t took the position, to
which it still adheres, that these peoples should
be prepared for self government and also that
a national home for the Jewish people should
be established in Palestine. I am happy to note
that most of the liberated peoples are now
citizens of Independent countries. The Jewish
national home, however, has not as yet been
fully developed.
1T is only natural, therefore, that this Gov
ernment should favor at this time the entry
into Palestine of considerable numbers of dis
placed Jews in Europe, not only that they may
find shelter there but also that they may con-
tribute their talents and energies to the up
building of the Jewish national home"

Germany a centralized govern
