LONDON, March 18 (Correspond

mond cutting trade while it was oc
cupied by the Germans, is rapidly re
50tT©l*it»g it* pl»o© through tho rot urn
Df thousands of diamond cutters who
sought refuge in England and Hol
land.
When the city fell into the hands
af the Germans, diamond merchants,
brokers, cutters and polishers fled to
England and Holland. Most of them
were Jews. They Vere quickly ab
sorbed in the diamond trades of the
countries to which tiey fled. In Lon
lon they settled at Hitton-Garden, set
up business and quicliy became pros
perous.
With the armistice liany of them
returned to Antwerp, lit others re
uiained, and this finalli aroused the
burgomaster of Antwemwho wanted
:he industry restored to k old basis,
rempting offers were mak but mas
ters and men among th4 Jews de
fined all offers unless theWvere rec
jgnized as of Jewish natiokiity in
stead of citizens of the cou\ries in
.vhich they were born. The fcestion
vent before the authorities iABrus
sels, and the demand of the me* was
granted.
It is stated in London that diamond
nerehants and workers of all na

man Jews are now to be admitted to

lurrying to the city. Their former
louses are to be restored to them
