Three hundred Jewish refugees disembarked today from the Rumanian-Soviet steamer Transylvania, which arrived at Haifa early this morning fron Constanza, bearing 1,003 Jewish immigrants from Poland, Hungary and Rumania. The remaining passengers are expected to leave the vessel tomorrow night after they have been subjected to a rigid health inspection, because of a report that there was typhus aboard the ship. Passage for the group was provided by the Joint Distribution Committee.
