The mass transfer of Jews from Germany to the Lublin “reservation” in Poland has been accelerated, according to latest reports reaching the State Department, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency learned from an authoritative source today.
The Department could not immediately confirm a report that the entire Jewish population of Stettin, Germany, had been loaded into box cars and sent beyond the new Polish Pale, but it does have reports of a similar forced exodus of entire Jewish populations in other German towns.
Only the Jewish population of Berlin has been left intact, the J.T.A. learn This is being done to prevent neutral observers from gauging the full extent of the migration.
