The first group of Polish Jews to leave for Palestine directly from Poland since September 1939 passed through Czechoslovakia today. The group consists of 105 emigrants.

Representatives of the Palestine Office and of the Joint Distribution Committee met the transport at the railway station here and extended greetings and aid. The group is headed by Dr. I. Kurtz, head of the Palestine Office in Warsaw, which has resumed its work of organizing Jewish emigration from Poland to Palestine.
