Tokyo, Dec. 2.
CEs uneasiness continues to prevail among German and Austrian Jews in Japan owing to their fear that their living in this country will be made precarious or perhaps impossible due to the policy of the German government and its close relationship with Japan.
It is reported that one German Jew, an educational instructor, has been dismissed from three Japanese schools in succession during the past year or so. On the other hand it is suggested that perhaps his dismissal was due to grounds other than nationality or race.
Another matter is that passports held by German Jews are subject to frequent submission to the German authorities in Japan, and some of them are very uneasy lest on one of these occasions their passports may not be returned to them. What attitude the Japanese government would take in regard to stich persons whose passports had been taken up has not yet been announced. In this matter also, however, it is suggested that the action of the German officials here would be determined, in a foreign country like Japan, on the basis of individual merits, and that the Japanese. official attitude would be similarly based.
The feeling among the Jows was intensified by the conclusion, of the Jerman cultural pact on ber 25, but some of them have your correspondent that they felt greatly relieved in this respect statement by Mr, Tatsuo spokesman Qf tho Foreign that the new agreement with narly has nothing whatever to do with the Jews. Mr. Kawai made this declaration soon after the signature of the pact.
