EXPULSION FROM HOMES IN POLAND
FOLLOWING ON SEIZURE OF POSSESSIONS.
SIMILAR ACTION EXPECTED IN GERMANY.
By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. AMSTERDAM, January 10. The 1 ‘Handelsblad's” Berlin correspondent says that 650,000 Jews have been forcibly expelled from the Posen (Poland), West Prussian, and Danzig districts, and sent to Warsaw and Lublin after flic seizure of their possessions. They are suffering severe privations and lew have received clothing ration cards.
It is believed that a similar lot awaits Jews throughout Germany. Those in Frankfurt-on-Oder have been ordered to Lublin, and 6000 German craftsmen and their families are replacing the Posen and West Prussian Jews.
