Bartley Crum and Sir Frederick Leggett arrived here today, with a secretarial staff, to gather information for the Anglo-American committee investigating the question of Palestine and the Jews of Europe.
The sub-committee will hear representatives of the Jews of Bohemia, Moravia, Carpatho-Russia and from Jewish youth groups and former partisan organizations. The Jewish community is following the committee’s activities with great interest, in the hope that their findings will enable emigration to Palestine.
Leggett and Crum will spend only one day here. They are expected to leave for Vienna tomorrow.
