Friday, August '2, 1946 THE JEWISH NEWS Jews Called Pawn In Poland Struggle J E R USALEM, (JPS-Palcor)-- The Jews in Poland today are pawns in the strugglef or power between the Polish Government and the majority of the Polish people, and at least 150,000 of the 200.000 Jews now in that country want to leave, Henry Monter, executive vice chairman of the United Palestine Appeal and the United Jewish Appeal, declared at a press conference here, at which he reported on his recent visit to Poland and to Jewish displaced persons camps in Germany. The U. S. Army in Germany. Mr. Montor said, deserves the ut- most appreciation of the Jewish people, for the sympathy and co- operation which its top officers have extended. The U. S. Army made it possible for tens of thousands of Jews to find tem- porary haven while they fled from imminent death. The attitude of the Army is re- flected in the recent action of Gen. McNarney who enabled the tens of thousands of Jews fleeing Poland monthly to be accepted in camps in the American zone. The U. S. Army, Mr. Montor said, is ready to transport any number of Jews from Germany to Palestine. The Jews in German DP camps repdesent a remarkable asset for Palestine, he said. They are pre- pared to work hard and live modestly and are perfect material for settlement in Palestine which Page Thirteen is their conscious choice and not an accidental refuge.
