A warning against the activities of Nazi emissaries in Poland was issued here today by the United Jewish Committee. The committee pointed out that the Nazi agents were aiming to deny atrocity reports and explain the persecution of the Jews and to learn what Jewish refugees were saying in order to inform the Nazi officials in Germany for the purpose of retaliatory action against relatives of the refugees still in the country.
Some of the Nazi agents are posing as Jews, the committee declares, and one even appeared at a meeting of the United Jewish Committee endeavoring to obtain details regarding activities there. The committee warns both refugees and the general Jewish population against anyone making inquiries and urges that they be directed to the committee for information.
