Raoul Lambert, French-Jewish leader who was arrested in Marseilles and interned in the Drancy camp near Paris, was deported last week to Poland, it was learned here today. His family was not permitted to see him off or even to provide him with food and clothing.

The German press reaching here today from Berlin complains that “Jews in France still enjoy considerable freedom.” The Nazi newspapers state that the percentage of Jews among captured French partisans is very high and allege that Jews are often the leaders of the terrorist groups which conduct anti-German sabotage in France.
