An X-Ray of Chilean Right-Wing Attitudes Toward Jews, 1932–1940
chapter 3 Indifference, Hostility, and Pragmatism: an X-Ray of Chilean Right-Wing Attitudes toward Jews, 1932–1940 Gustavo Guzmán 1 Introduction Convened to discuss the issue of Jewish refugees, the Évian Conference (July 1938) raised two main positions in Chilean politics. While leftists and centrists sympathized with Jews, asking President Alessandri to increase their immigration quotas, rightists remained indifferent to the Jewish plight, reject- ing any attempt to expand their numbers. A leading voice in this regard was Conservative senator Maximiano Errázuriz Valdés, according to whom Chile did not need traders or intermediaries but farmers. “Sadly,” he said, “Jews are not farmers but traders who will come to compete [with our businessmen] and become intermediaries.” Additionally, echoing a discourse that was com- mon at the time in other countries as well, their religion made them “elements difficult to assimilate” and likely “to create a hitherto unknown ethnic prob- lem.” Indeed, the ultimate responsibility for Jew-hatred, he stressed, lay with “the Jews themselves,” as “they create problems where previously they did not exist.” Consequently, Errázuriz Valdés asked the government “to restrict as much as possible the arrival of Jews and not to increase their quotas.”1 Similarly, after Kristallnacht (November 1938), while the leftist and centrist press largely condemned the pogrom, speaking of “barbarism” and “savagery,”2 influential right-wing media such as El Mercurio and El Diario Ilustrado embraced a less sympathetic approach. Although it might be “painful from a human point of view,” El Mercurio stressed, “the reasons that led the German government to expel members of the Jewish race are not for Chileans to dis- cuss because they belong to the right of every nation to govern itself.”3 El Diario 1 Senado de Chile, Boletín de sesiones ordinarias 1938, vol. -

The Japanese Economy During the Interwar Period
20092009--JE--21 The Japanese Economy during the Interwar Period: 両大戦間期Instabilityの日本における恐慌と政策対応 in the Financial System and ― 金融システム問題と世界恐慌への対応を中心にthe Impact of the World Depression ― Institute for Monetary and Economic Studies 金融研究所 鎮目雅人 Masato Shizume 2009 年 4 月 May 2009 The Japanese economy during the interwar period faced chronic crises. Among them, the Showa Financial Crisis of 1927 and the Showa Depression of 1930-31 marked turning points. The Showa Financial Crisis of 1927 was the consequence of persistent financial instability because of the incomplete restructuring in the business sector and postponements in the disposal of bad loans by financial institutions. The crisis brought reforms in the financial sector through large-scale injections of public funds and the amalgamation of banks. The Showa Depression of 1930-31 was caused by the Great Depression, a worldwide economic collapse, which had been intensified in Japan by the return to the Gold Standard at the old parity. Japan escaped from the Great Depression earlier than most other countries through a series of macroeconomic stimulus measures initiated by Korekiyo Takahashi, a veteran Finance Minister who resumed office in December 1931. Takahashi instituted comprehensive macroeconomic policy measures, including exchange rate, fiscal, and monetary adjustments. At the same time, the Gold Standard, which had been governing Japan’s fiscal policy, collapsed in the wake of the British departure from it in September 1931. Then, Japan introduced a mechanism by which the government could receive easy credit from the central bank without establishing other institutional measures to govern its fiscal policy. This course of events resulted in an eventual loss of fiscal discipline. -

235 II.3. the Deepening Crisis: March 1938
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Ghent University Academic Bibliography 235 II.3. The Deepening Crisis: March 1938 – October 1938 1938 is always seen as a watershed in the persecution of the ‘Jews’1 as it was the year when geopolitical changes brought more ‘Jews’ under German rule and when antisemitic policies were substantially radicalized. Yet even before the Anschluss, the Nazis were becoming increasingly worried about the slow pace of Jewish emigration. Their own policies, combined with immigration restrictions elsewhere, had served to limit the numbers able to leave. At the same time, Nazi strategy itself was contradictory, with the ‘Jews’ being pressed to leave while simultaneously being stripped of the assets that would have made them acceptable immigrants in other countries. Nevertheless, individual emigration remained the Nazi strategy for making Germany judenfrei and in general, everything possible was done to hasten the emigration of the – albeit increasingly impoverished – ‘Jews’. A number of official instructions were issued to facilitate this. For example, the police record of Jewish emigrants could be ‘cleansed’ to make them more acceptable to countries of immigration. Professional qualifications that were in demand were also included on passports, and the Handwerkskammern were authorised to issue papers certifying the professional knowledge of Jewish emigrants.2 A partial solution to the fundamental contradictions in Nazi policy was found in more overt state violence and schemes for collective forced emigration that removed individual initiative or choice in destination. The latter element was tried at the beginning of 1938. -

The Editor would be glad of suggestions for future numbers. He would apprec- iate, too, news items telling of temporary or permanent changes of . address, new publications, new discoveries, etc. Address: Wheeler P. Davey, Editor Society of Rheology School of Chemistry and Physics The Pennsylvania State College State College, Pennsylvania OUR NEXT MEETING The annual meeting of the Society of Rheology will be held in Akron, Ohio, October 22 and 23, 1937. The Hotel Mayflower will be the headquarters for this meeting. The technical sessions of the Society will probably be held in the Hotel. Tentative arrangements now include trips through the Tire Div- ision of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, the Mechanical Goods Division of the B. F. Goodrich Company, and the Laboratories of the Guggenheim Airship Institute. The personnel of the local committee will be: W. F. Busse, B. F. Goodrich Company A. M. Keuthe, Guggenheim Airship Institute J. W. Liska, Firestone Tire and Rubber Company J. H. Dillon, Firestone Tire and Rubber Company With this committee we are assured of the best accommodations as well as all we could desire in the way of entertainment. In addition, since Akron is the capital of the rubber industry, the multitude of direct and indirect applications of Rheology employed there will prove of interest to our membership. Akron is close to the ideal loca- tion for a meeting of our Society, as a recent analysis of the geograph- ical distribution of our membership has shown that our "center of gravity" lies somewhere in Ohio. -

Escape to Shanghai: 1938-1940
Flight to Shanghai, 1938-1940: The Larger Setting Avraham Altman and Irene Eber Between November 1938 and August 1939, approximately 20,000 Central European refugees, most of them Jews, landed in Shanghai. They had sailed on German, Italian, and Japanese ships and, in the short span of eight months, constituted a massive exodus. What, however, is the background to this phenomenon, and, moreover, why did it rapidly diminish after August 1939?1 In order to answer these questions, we must look at the larger setting within which this process took place—something that, until now, has not been investigated. The Background In 1933, when Hitler came to power, there were around 500,000 Jews in Germany and 185,000 in Austria.2 In contrast to the gradual pressure over several years that had been exerted on the Jews in Germany to leave the country, when Austria came under German rule in March 1938, the Jews were immediately and ruthlessly persecuted. By launching an organized terror campaign against them—confiscating their property, depriving them of all means of livelihood, and incarcerating Jewish men in concentration camps—the Nazis forced the Austrian Jews to 1This paper is part of a larger project on the Jewish communities in modern China under Japanese occupation.

Duram A forethought: Once while pondering the difficulties ofgetting at intent and motives, the late Justice Felix FrankfUlter said: "The Devil himselfknoweth not the mind of man." (Concurring in Lelandv. Oregon. 343 U.S. 803) On February 5, 1937. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, emboldened by his landslide Presidential election victory over Kansas Governor Alfred M. Landon, sent Congress a bill to reorganize the Federal judiciary (hereafter cited as the court plan). Despite the President's insistence that the court plan was aimed at increasing the efficiency of the federal judiciary, it was, in truth, a thinly veiled attempt to add six new justices to the U.S. Supreme Court. Roosevelt, who had been denied an opportunity to appoint any justices during his first term, was determined to overcome the Court's rigid opposition to New Deallegislation.l The Court's decisions in its 1935 and 1936 terms had virtually paralyzed federal and state attempts to create relief, recovery and reform programs aimed at alleviating the effects of the Great Depression. The decisions had sharply curtailed the uses of the federal taxing and commerce powers and the states' police powers. Moreover. the decisions were stated in such sweeping language that they seemed to suggest that the federal government and the states were precluded from any kind of effective action with regard to the economic crisis.2 President Roosevelt was stunned and surprised at the almost immediate bipartisan negative reaction against the plan in the Senate and the massive public opposition that appeared soon thereafter. -
