This bulletin was intended to publish the work of the Committee for collecting material about the destruction of the Jews in Poland, describing the destruction of the Jewish community of Goworowo in the first months of the war. The bulleting consists of a summary of the testimony of a woman from Rozan, here referred to as X, elsewhere giving her name as Rachel B. the bulletin describes the gathering of Jews into the synagogue and holding them for hours under threat of incendiary bombs and fire. Many of the men were taken out and shot. In the end they were let out under German fire, to see that the entire Jewish area of the city was burned. Bulletin No. 1 is an extract from a volume of protocols /statements provided by a group of Polish-Jewish refugee writers and journalists who fled to Vilnius, Lithuania. In 1939 they formed a committee to collect evidence on the condition of the Jews in Poland under Nazi occupation.
