The Jewish Telegraphic Agency news service is now reaching Jews in occupied Poland through the Jewish underground movement, it was revealed here today by the Polish Government-in-Exile.
News bulletins issued by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency in London, which give a comprehensive picture of Jewish life in the United States, Palestine and other countries, are being sent by the Polish Government to the Jewish underground movement in Poland through secret channels. This not only enables Jews in Poland to be posted on Jewish events abroad, but also on the efforts which Jews in the democratic countries are making to save as many Jews in Poland as possible.
The Polish Government today reported that the German administration has decided to start liquidating the Lodz ghetto which is the last one remaining in Poland. There are about 150,000 Jews in Lodz at present, most of them skilled workers brought from various Nazi-held countries to work for German war industries. The report of the Polish Government confirms that not a single Jew has been left by the Germans in the city of Lwaw.
