The influx of Jewish refugees from the Saar into Poland will result in organization of a special census of refugees holding Nansen passports and considered “men without citizenship in any country,” it was announced here today.

There are about 7,000 “staatenlose” now living in Poland on Nansen passports, it was stated. There is no means of judging the proportion of Jews among them. The Polish Red Cross, which has taken over the work of looking after the stateless in Poland, will supervise the census of these refugees in the country.
