POLL SHOWS STUDENTS DON'T WANT REICH REFUGEES HERE

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Jewish refugees should not be admitted to the United States in great numbers, a large majority of college youths in this country believes, according to the first national poll of the Student Opinion Surveys of America.

These figures are the first announced by the newly founded Student Surveys, an organization of campus editors which publish weekly reports on national referenda.
