As if the WRB did not have enough problems with the Nazis, their collaborators, and with sorting out the varied and many requests received from relief organizations, they began to have problems with one of the Intergovernmental Committee representatives, Sir Clifford Heathcote-Smith.  Smith had a few major problems: he was by almost all accounts an anti-Semite, did not believe that Palestine should be a Jewish homeland (Madagascar was quite nice, he said publicly) and apparently had only recently learned that the Nazis were murdering the Jews.
