The Polish government-in-Exile today received information that a number of Polish Jews managed to cross from unoccupied France into Spain prior to the complete occupation by the Nazis of the part of France which was under the administration of the Vichy Government.

The Polish Information Bureau today reported that more than 200 Polish doctors held a conference in Tel Aviv to discuss medical tasks in post-war Poland. This was the first conference of Polish physicians held in the Middle East. Three Jewish doctors were elected to the presidium of the conference, which was attended by Dr. H. Rosmarin, Polish Consul in Tel Aviv, who was one of the Jewish members of the Polish parliament before the war.
