ABSTRACT
Warsaw Ghetto As a part of the “Final Solution” (q.v.) of the “Jew ish Problem,” the German occupation authorities herded the Jewish population of the General Government of Poland (q.v.) into several urban ghettos-the largest being in Warsaw. Surrounded by a brick wall ten feet high, some 400,000 Jews were starving on their meager rations, crowded in at an average of twelve to fourteen people per room, and decimated by hunger and diseases, es pecially typhoid.
