ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT APPOINTING THE

“ŻEGOTA” COUNCIL TO AID JEWS

October 14, 1943, Warsaw

Bulletin about the formation of the Temporary Underground Committee to Aid Jews.

We publicly announced that due to an initiative from several civic associations from the Catholic and democratic communities, a Committee for Social Service is being created for the Jewish population victimized by the ferocious persecution by the Germans. The Committee will try as far as possible in terms of financial resources and the conditions of living in an occupied country, to aid the victims of the Nazi atrocities.
