Premier Briand was urged to give facilities for naturalization to the eighty thousand Jews in Tunis who desire to become French citizens, in a letter published by Deputy Charles Lamberg, a non-Jew.

The 80,000 naturalized Jews would counter-balance the 100,000 Italians in Tunis, the Deputy argues. As a further argument he adds that the Jews are studious and intelligent.
