The Jewish Central Committee, at a stormy meeting here, decided to authorize its newly-elected executive committee to take steps to secure alleviation of the plight of the 25 Jewish refugees interned in the Santa Rosa Polish refugee camp.
The decision was taken in view of the fact that the interned Jews continue to complain that they are being terrorized by Polish residents of the camp as well as by the Polish camp administration. Arturo Wolfowitz, Mexican Zionist leader, was elected president of the Central Committee.
