Following the long fight which has gone on in the Anatomical Institute of the Warsaw University over the question of the supply of corpses for the Jewish students, a decision has been reached by the Chesed Shel Emes, Jewish burial society, to supply two Jewish corpses to the Institute.
The promise of the burial society to the Jewish medical students that it would supply the corpses was made when Professor Loth of the Institute, announced he would not admit Jewish students to the anatomical research laboratory unless Jewish corpses were supplied.
