Measures to intensify the campaign against Zionism among the Jews of Poland, and to organize the “ideological reeducation” of Polish Jewry were discussed at a three-day meeting of the executive committee of the Central Jewish Cultural Association of Poland, held in Wroclaw, Western Poland, where most of the Polish Jews now live.
Delegates, including the Communist leaders dominating Jewish activities, attended the conference and heard pleas to bring the Jewish intelligentzia into closer touch with Communist Party life. I. Lazebnik, secretary-general of the executive committee, told the assembly that the Jews must participate fully in Poland’s six-year plan.
