LOST TRIBES OF 20th

WORLD-WIDE STUDY

OF REFUGEES

Million Without A Country

A serious attempt is being made to throw light on the problem of the "lost tribes" of the twentieth century. At the suggestion and with the liberal assistance of the Rr kefeller Foundation, and supplemented by grants from the Leverhulme Trust and the Halley Stewart Trust, the Royal Institute of International Affairs has undertaken a scientific survey of the world's refugee problem.

Investigators appointed by the Re- fugee Survey are now at work in France, In Holland and Belgium, in the countries of the Near East, in- cluding Turkey, Syrla and Cyprus, and In, China.

Sir John Hope Simpson, director of the Survy, told the press recent- ly that efforts will be made to publish the results of the Inquiry early next July.

Under a resolution of the Assembly be these organisations are due to Hiquidated in December, 1933.

"Should the League decide finally to wash its hands of the refugees, which is to me an unthinkable possibil..y," said Sir John, "they will be thrown back entirely voluntary bodies."
