The World Jewish Congress today reported that its representatives, Dr. Samuel Margoshes and Louis Segal, who are now studying Jewish conditions in Poland, have been received by Polish Prime Minister Edward B. Osubka-Morawski, who told them that difficulties and red tape will be removed for Jews who wish to emigrate from Poland. At the same time, he emphasized that those wishing to remain will receive every opportunity for a free life and economic and social development.
The Premier declared that the fight against anti-Semitism in Poland will continue as a part of its fight for democracy for the benefit of all, regardless of race or creed. He said that those Jews desiring to go to Palestine will find sympathetic understanding by the Polish Government in spite of the fact that the Polish state, having sustained great losses of population, is anxious to keep all of its inhabitants who are able and willing to share in the work of reconstruction.
