Polish Jews Fear Emigration Curb NEW YORK (JTA)—Jews in Poland who are planning to leave for Israel were reported to be fearful that the Polish government may "drastically" modify its liberal policy of per- mitting Jewish emigratipn from the country. Their fear, the New York Times reported in a Warsaw dispatch, is based on the fact that Polish authorities have opened an investigation of the Passport Office and also be- cause of an article which ap- peared in Trybuna Ludu. Trybuna Ludu, organ of . the central committee of the United Workers (Communist) Party, said Jews who felt stronger links to Israel than to Poland "have the right to emigrate." But, the paper added: "One must also remember that de- parture en masse of Polish Jews could be utilized by circles unfriendly to Poland to undermine its good name." The paper conceded that anti-Semitism had continued to increase despite a stepped-up campaign by the party's leader- ship to halt discrimination against all • minority groups, particularly the Jews. Trybuna Ludu disclosed that the Communist Party secretariat had sent a letter to party . or- ganizations "summoning all members to struggle against all symptoms of nationalism, chau- vinism and racialism" in Poland.
