The problems which the Jews in Poland will face after the war is over were outlined here yesterday at a press luncheon addressed by Morris D. Waldman, executive vice-president of the American Jewish Committee, and Max Gottschalk, director of the Research Institute on Peace and Post-War Problems established by the Committee.
The luncheon marked the publication of “The New Order In Poland” by Dr. Simon Segal, a member of the staff of the Institute. The volume, was prepared under the auspices of the Institute and is published by Alfred A. Knopf, Inc.
In speaking on post-war cooperation between Jews and Poles in a liberated Poland, Mr. Waldman pointed out that though there will no doubt be emigration from Poland when the war is over, American Jews consider it a basic principle that Jews in post-war Poland be equal citizens and that the proposals for “Jewish evacuation” stimulated by the pre-war Polish regime must remain a matter of the past. Dr. Segal, the author of the new book, spoke in a similar vein. Mr. Gottschalk described the work which the Research Institute is conducting.
