Henri Bodenheimer of Paris, prior to his departure after a visit here on a mission for the world Ort organization informed the Jewish Daily Bulletin that the Ort has so far not taken up the question of helping the settlement of foreign Jews in Biro-Bidjan as was reported in the press.

Mr. Bodenheimer asked for a correction of the reports which appeared in several New York newspapers quoting him as saying that the Ort intends to raise a loan for Jewish settlement in Biro-Bidjan. “Till now we have not been officially approached about Biro-Bidjan,” Mr. Bodenheimer declared.
