Subjects for discussion:
1. Reintegration of the Jews in the community
- a. Finances and business
- Measures of the rehabilitation of the Jews still living in the country.
- No absentes ownership and no preferential treatment of Jews in respect to reinstatement in property as compared with non-Jews.
- b. Legal {Dalis}
- restoration of the equality of legal status of Jews
- institutional measures against anti-Jewish propaganda
- c. religion
- restoration of the Jewish religious community in its right and property
2. Jewish contribution to the fight against anti-Semitism
- Recognition of the existence of a Jewish problem and of the necessity for all those who were the victims of Hitlerism to take up a definite attitude towards that problem. Jews should decide for themselves whether they wish to regard themselves as Jews primarily on religious grounds (orthodoxy) or on political grounds (Zionists); those belonging to neither of these groups should declare whether they believe in a separate Jewish contribution to the community of which they are members, or in their assimilation to that community as the ultimate solution of the Jewish problem (assimilants). Obviously a number of nominal Christians will belong to the latter groups.
