Jewish parents in Czechoslovakia, concerned for the safety of their families because of current war scares have begun to transfer their children to Palestine under the auspices of the Youth Aliyah, according to a cable received by Hadassah. A first group of 15 young refugees from Czechoslovakia is expected to arrive momentarily in the holy land. The children, all between the ages of 15 and 17, are part of a group of 903, including also 25 Austrian, 40 Polish and 140 German Jewish boys and girls, now holding special student immigration certificates issued by the British Government, who will enter Palestine within the next few weeks.
