The 20,000 Jews of the city of Stanislawow, Nazi-occupied Galicia, have been removed to a ghetto in the suburb of Belvedere, according to a report published in the pro-Nazi Ukrainian newspaper Krakiwski List, reaching here today.
Other reports reaching here today from Nazi-held Poland state that the Jewish Council in the newly-established ghetto of Stanislawow is faced with the problem of securing shelter for 250 Jewish orphans who have lost their parents since the Nazi occupation of the city. The Council must also provide a home for 400 aged Jews who were driven out of the home for the aged in the city when the Jews were shipped into the ghetto, where there is an acute shortage of living quarters.
