EXODUS FROM RUSSIA
POLES & JEWS TREK WEST 150,000 ON THE MOVE (10 a.m.) LONDON, Jan. 29. The mass migration has started .of 150,000 Polish Jew repatriates from Russia, the majority of whom are going to western Germany, says the Daily Telegraph’s correspondent in Warsaw. Already 10,000 have reached east Poland. These figures were released by the Jewish central committee which is advising Jewish repatriates to stay in Poland and resettle in German ter-, ritory. One member of the committee admitted that most of these migrants will undoubtedly filter into the British or American zones in Germany during the next 12 months. The Jewish committee launched an appeal to world J ewry for help in ielief work, but it states that thus far the Jews abroad have not sent one cent to Poland. Second-hand clothing has been given but some of it is useless. .
