A Swedish organization to aid the Jewish children in Nazi-held Europe, especially to facilitate their emigration to Palestine, has been formed here under the chairmanship of Baroness Maria Stjernstedt.
Other Swedish notables interested in the group are Countess Ebba Bonde-Ellenhagne, Alma Nydahl, Amelie Posse and Gulli Herkman-Erikson. The latter two are noted authors. Baroness Stjernstedt declared today that the work of the organization will be purely humanitarian.
