New evidence was reported here today that the decision of Polish authorities to cancel Government-aided Jewish summer schools this year was part of the official anti-Jewish campaign of the Gomulka regime.

When officials announced termination of the program last spring, they gave budgetary problems as the reason. It has been learned, however, that not only were summer camps for children studying foreign languages not curtailed or eliminated but in fact have been expanded. The Jewish summer schools had provided instruction in Jewish subjects, in addition to the usual summer camp programs.
