Twenty-five thousand Jews were murdered by the Germans during a recent liquidation of “Jewish labor camps” in occupied Poland says a message sent by the Jewish underground movement on December 2, and received here today by Dr. Emanuel Szerer, one of the two Jewish members of the Polish National Council.
The message acknowledged receipt by the Jewish underground movement in Poland of funds sent to them by the Jewish Labor Committee in New York. It indicated that only 600 remain of the 10,000 Jews who were held at the Plaszow camp, near Cracow, while all Jews were murdered in the camps at Skarzysko, Starachowice, Pioki, Ostrowiec in central Poland.
