Preparations for the opening of a Jewish pavilion at Auschwitz as a memorial to the millions of Jewish martyrs and resistance heroes of the Nazi regime have been completed, according to reports today to a meeting of the international committee of the survivors of Auschwitz. The pavilion will open next April, marking the 25th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising. Members of the Polish delegation to the meeting said a conference will be held in Warsaw in November to draw up the memorial program.
