Yesterday’s scheduled departure of 500 Jews, the first contingent of 1,000 slated for expulsion to an unknown destination, has been postponed for a week, it was learned today. It was understood that the postponement was necessitated by inability of an Italian steamship line, which was to transport the deportees from Genoa after a trip across Germany in a sealed train, to make the necessary arrangements.
