New training courses for rehabilitation of Polish Jews repatriated from the Soviet Union are being formed by ORT this month in Warsaw and in Lower Silesia, where many of the repatriates are concentrated, according to a report in the Warsaw Yiddish-language newspaper Die Folkshtimme, received here today.
“The big problem, ” Mr. H, Miller, an ORT representative, reported, “is to get jobs for our students after they have completed their courses. A few of our recent graduates have been given employment. The city authorities as well as the Jewish community leaders are doing all they can to place the others. If it becomes necessary, we shall form cooperatives for the newly-trained workmen. “
