Representatives of the Polish Government participated yesterday in a ceremony at the unveiling of a memorial commemorating the death of more than 35,000 Jews who were killed during the Jewish uprising against the German Army in the Warsaw Ghetto in 1943. The ceremony marked the seventh anniversary of the day when the armed revolt in the ghetto started.
(Memorial meetings are being held this week-end in a number of American Jewish communities. Reports are also being received by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency from Latin American countries on similar meetings which are being held in these countries. In Montreal, the seventh anniversary of the revolt in the Warsaw Ghetto was commemorated at a series of meetings last night.)
