To some extent they did help. For example, between 1933 and 1941 the US admitted about 250,000 refugees from Germany and Austria, and Britain admitted 71,000 between 1933 and 1939. (These figures include refugees who were not Jewish, but were fleeing for purely political reasons). Factors influencing both governments included unemployment. Obviously, given the scale of the problem, these numbers were small.
