I quote a report of the Polish Government, on Page 136 of the Russian text of this document. I begin the quotation:

“The official statistical yearbook of Poland, in 1931, estimates the number of Jews at 3,115,000.

“According to unofficial figures collected in 1939 there were in Poland 3,500,000 Jews.

“After the liberation of Poland the Jews in that country numbered less than 100,000, and 200,000 Polish Jews are still in the U.S.S.R.

“Thus, about 3 million Jews perished in Poland.”

In Czechoslovakia, as seen from the data published on Pages 82-83 of the Russian text of the report, the Jews numbered 118,000. At present, in the entire country, they number only 6,000 all told. Of the total number of 15,000 Jewish children, only 28 have returned.

THE PRESIDENT: Can we leave off here?
