Many of the Jews of Poland have succeeded in finding a place for themselves within the country’s new economic set-up, Dr. Noah Barou, Would Jewish Congress leader who just returned from a trip to Poland, told a press conference here today.

He reported that the Jews have established efficiently-operated cooperatives, particularly in the western districts of the country which were obtained from Germany after the war. He said that there was still a strong inclination among the Jews to immigrate to Palestine, but that this sentiment was chiefly concentrated among Jews living in areas where their families had been slaughtered by the Nazis.
