A Swedish mission has arrived here to select 25 displaced “hard core” cases for medical treatment and resettlement in Sweden.
The 25 DP’s, all tubercular or post-tubercular cases, will be taken from German or Austrian DP camps. Together with their families, they will number about 80. Resettlement costs and other expenses will be borne by the Joint Distribution Committee, which also supplies lump sum payments to help defray the cost of integrating these DP’s into the Swedish economy.
