European headquarters of the Joint Distribution Committee today denied a report published in New York (See page 4) that it had made arrangements with the German authorities for transfer to Slovakia of about 500 Jews who in November were sent from the Protectorate to Nisko, Poland. The organization said several hundred refugees from the Protectorate were now in Slovakia, maintained by local Jewish relief institutions supported by the Joint Distribution Committee, but declared that no arrangement existed with the Reich authorities regarding transf to Slovakia of Jews who had been expelled to Nisko.
