The Institute of Jewish Affairs last week published a survey entitled “Hitler’s Ten-Year War on the Jews.” Statistics :
> Jews in Europe when Hitler went to war—8,300,000.
> Jews in Europe today—3,300,000.
> Jews destroyed by murder, pogroms, planned starvation, forced labor, deportatiors—over 3,000,000.
> Jews who found asylum in Soviet Russia—1,800,000; in other countries—180,000.
From the U.S. and Britain came an official warning that the “instigators and actual perpetrators of these crimes” will be punished; that the atrocities would “be taken into account against the time of the final settlement with Germany.”
