consulate or a recognised body such as the Polish welfare delegation or the Czech repatriation mission as desirous of returning to their country of origin; these figures include both Jews and non-Jews; and

(b) non-Jewish refugees the temporary nature of whose residence in Palestine is assumed from the fact that they are not Jews, but who have not yet registered for repatriation. The two categories are thus mutually exclusive and, together, give a total which is as close an approximation as can be obtained at present.

Poles 2.500 5,000 7,500
Czechs 3,000 900 3,900
