75,000 Polish Jews
Survived in German
Concentration Camps
MOSCOW, (JT4)—A Yiddish
broadcast from Warsaw reported
that 75,000 Polish Jews were
found in the German concentra-
tion camps after the fall of the
Nazi regime.
The broadcast also reported
that a meeting took place in Lodz
of Jewish and Polish workers at
which plans were outlined for
the organization of measures to
combat anti-Semitism which has
been renewed in a virulent form
lately in the murderous acts of
Polish terrorists.
The Association of Jewish
Partisans has begun registration
of all Jews who fought in the
underground movement as parti-
sans against the Germans, the
broadcast said. It also reported
the establishment of a central
Jewish library by the Central
Committee of Jews in Poland.

months, perhaps a year or
more before new cars will be
obtainable by the general pub-
lic. It will take a lot of time
for factories to clef info pro-
duction, and the early cars
probably will be rationed to
essential users.
