Previ- ous to his last visit to Poland he spent nine months there engaged in the same ‘work, All told he estimated the num- her of Polish Jews orphaned as a re- sult of the war at about 100,000. Doctor Bogen said that the various advances of the Polish armies on the frontiers are not always regarded with unanimous approval. The prosecution of the war is exerting such heavy drains upon the financial and mgn- power resources of the new country that vitally necessary reconstructive measures ati home are being over- looked. | Operations Vary.’ “The advance upon the south front Y which resulted in the capture of Kiev just before Tleft,” said Doctor Bogen, “was viewed from7different angles by different Polish groups.

Much Already Is Done. “The joint distribution committee has done much to relieve the suffer- ings not only of the Jews of Poland, but of the general population, We have established twelve relief districts in the’ecountry, with a central office, garages and warehouses in each, with an American in charge. This makes it possibleffor the people to have di- rect contact with an American work- er, and to thése people, who feel lost and helpless in the problems they have to face, this means a great deal. ‘The subyentions to local agencies and in. stitutions- amounting to $300,000 a month, go far toward relieving dis- tress.” / Doctor Bogen strongly urged Amer- icans to purchase the food drafts sold In this country by the American re- lief administration and the joint dis- tribution committee.
