Description
This Board was comprised of Rabbis representing various groups and colleges that were in Poland before the war. These groups were able to leave Europe and arrive in Asia in 1941, intending to travel on to different locations such as Canada and the USA. The outbreak of the war in the Pacific prevented them from leaving China. Now that the war is over, they are requesting new visas to travel to America. The list contains name, age, and nationality.
