· Scope and Content | Of the 16,000 Polish Jews expelled by the Nazi Gov't in the night of 10/27-28/38, about one-half were thrust into Zbaszyn, a Polish border town, and some 5,500 were detained there. The JDC made an emergency grant of $250,000 to aid the expellees, and also helped to organize a Central Refugee Aid Committee to raise funds locally for the same purpose. By the spring of 1939, some 2,200 refugees remained in Zbaszyn. Reports on the Condition of the Refugees in Zbaszyn - L. Hellman: 11/10/38. Anonymous Eye-Witness Account: 11/18/38. M.C.
