	Marvin Kalb -- The Journalism of the Holocaust
		In May, two Jewish members of the Polish National Council in Poland -- Szmul Zygielbojm and Ignacy Schwarzbart -- produced even more startling information.

		Zygielbojm and Schwarzbart concluded that the Nazis had embarked on a program, as they put it, "to annihilate all the Jews in Europe." The two Jewish representatives recommended that the Allies retaliate in some way against German citizens living within their jurisdictions.

		Szmul Zygielbojm was driven to suicide by the fact that world-wide Jewish organizations would not heed his warnings.
		Adam Pragier, a Pole of Jewish origin, told Zygielbojm that accounts of even 700,000 Polish Jews killed was "propaganda which no one would believe", and that he should drop one zero to state a more-believable figure of 70,000 Jewish victims.
		Nowak's discussion of these events soundly refutes the charge that Poles were disinterested in the fate of their Jews or otherwise disinclined to inform the world about it.
