The World ORT Union, which redirects Jewish occupational life through vocational and agricultural training, has undertaken two new activities — training of some 50,000 Jewish members of Polish unions who are not fully qualified in their trades and training of refugees in camps in “no man’s lands,” it was announced today by the American ORT Federation. The Polish project, which will start shortly, resulted from an agreement between ORT and the Central Bureau of Jewish Trade Unions of Poland under which ORT training will help save the jobs of the union members who now face the risk of dismissal because of insufficient skill.
