Jewish Corpses Left As Garbage in Warsaw Ghetto As Starvation Mounts

Misery among Jews in the Warsaw ghetto has reached a point where Jewish corpses can now be seen lying on the curbs of the street where they are left to be collected by municipal street cleaners since their families cannot afford to arrange a funeral, it was reported here today by the Polish Ministry of Information.

Information which the Ministry has received from Nazi-occupied Poland says that destitution among Poles and Jews there is assuming unimaginable proportions. Even bread has become a luxury for tens of thousands of Jews. The Nazi authorities are requisitioning everything they can lay their hands on, including the remaining supplies of linen, blankets and medicine. All this is shipped to the German troops on the Soviet front.

Prices on food continue to soar from day to day, as it grows clear that the food situation is becoming worse. Even the forthcoming harvesting season does not promise much to the local population since it is certain that the Nazis will send the entire crop reaped from the Polish fields into the German interior.

NAZIS ORDER PREGNANT JEWISH WOMEN TO REPORT TO GESTAPO

Apparently with the idea of preventing births among the local Jewish and Polish populations, the Nazi authorities in occupied Poland have issued an order stipulating that every Jewish and Polish woman in the Government General is to report to the Gestapo within thirty days after establishing pregnancy, Polish circles here reported today.

At the same time information reached London today that Jewish houses in Radom have been occupied by anti-Soviet units of Russian volunteers who arrived in Nazi-held Poland, from Paris, to be inducted into the Nazi army for use against the Soviet. The Jews in Radom are all herded in a ghetto.
