What difficulties of policing did Immigration cause
There were tensions between Immigrants and Londoners. More Londoners held and focused on the stereotypes of Jews as greedy and dishonest. Suspicion and anti- Semtitism caused problems for Jews living in Whitechapel. In turn, many (especially new) Jewish immigrants tended to police their own problems because of the persecution they faced from the police in Russia.
The police and judge were also nervous and suspicious by the presences of many Eastern European Jews.
Matters were futhermore complicated by the fact that many newly arrived Jewish immigrants only spoke Yiddish.
What did the police do about this issue
In 1904 the superintendent of Whitechapel Divison wrote to the Home Office to ask for funds for language lessons in Yiddish.
