The Preparatory Commission for the International Refugee Organization has decided against the formation of a special department within the I.R.O. for displaced Jews.
The action was taken following the demand by organizations of pro-fascist displaced Balts, Ukrainians and Poles that special departments also be established for their groups. However, the Jewish relief organizations now doing field work in the DP centers will receive a special status permitting close cooperation with I.R.O. officials.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
