"A calm, statistical estimate has lieon made of the chances of physical .survival of the vast mtiss of f'juropean .lowry," Dr. Weizmann saiti. "It is estimat¬ ed Ihal 2.') percent of central European Jewry will be physi¬ cally dostroyod.

And there is grave danger Ihat the failure to realize this setpience of events will en¬ danger the peace and render .sacrifices meaningless." The world Zionist leader de¬ clared that at the end of the conlliot between nine and ten million people ~ Poles, Czechs, Jugo-Slavs and Jews — will be uprooted and constitute a float¬ ing population.

A.s.seriing that "large-scale migration to the New World, in the iieriod following this war, cannot reasonably be anticipated, for large-scale immigration, is a fouture mily of expanding economies," Dr. Weizmann said; "I'hero remains, as the sole tried and tesleii mass reconstruction measure, the ali.sorptlon of the larger part of this floating Jew¬ ish popuialiun into the expand¬ ing Jewish Homeland in Pales¬ tine."
