The relations between Poles and Jews have improved so much that it is now possible to give effect to the Jewish postulates, step by step, the Prime Minister, Colonel Slawek, said to Deputy Rabbi Dr. Thon, the President of the Club of Jewish Deputies, and Deputy Dr. Rosmarin, the Vice-President, in the course of an interview in which he discussed with them at length the various Jewish demands, set out by Rabbi Thon in a detailed expose, in which he emphasised the present distress of the Jewish population, and their needs in the economic, political and cultural fields. The interview lasted for over an hour, and was of a very friendly-character throughout. The conversations will be continued next week.
There is a good deal of gratification expressed in Jewish quarters here at this establishment of direct contact by the leaders of the Club of Jewish Deputies with the Government.
The Prime Minister assured the Jewish Deputies he was going to enquire into the Jewish postulates in regard to the most urgent points in regard to the economic position, the organisation of Jewish Communities and the Jewish school-system, with a view to obtaining a clearer view of the situation to see what could be done to satisfy the Jewish demands.
