Jewish groups in Poland will not have their own slates in the forthcoming parliamentary elections which are scheduled to take place Jan. 19. Instead, two Jewish candidates have been included on the general list of the government bloc, which represents four pro-government parties.
The two Jewish candidates are Dr. M. Shuldenfrei, chairman of the central committee of the Jewish Socialist Bund, and Prof. I. Sack, leader of the right wing of the Zionist Laborite Party and vice-chairman of the Central Committee of Polish Jews.
