The Provisional Committee to Aid Jews ((ポーランド語:Tymczasowy Komitet Pomocy Żydom)) was founded on September 27, 1942, by Zofia Kossak-Szczucka and Wanda Krahelska-Filipowicz. The founding body consisted of Polish democratic Catholic activists associated with the Front Odrodzenia Polski, Polska Organizacja Demokratyczna, Związek Syndykalistów Polskich and PPS-WRN. It was the direct predecessor to Żegota, the underground Council to Aid Jews (''Rada Pomocy Żydom'').〔 (Andrzej Krasnowolski "Żegota" - konspiracyjna Rada Pomocy Żydom ) at www.senat.gov.pl〕 The Provisional Committee was helping 180 persons already within a short period following its creation. It was financed partly by the Department of Social Services (''Departament Opieki Społecznej'') and the Department of Internal Affairs (''Departament Spraw Wewnętrznych'') of the Polish Government in Exile. The Provisional Committee may have been the first formal institution in modern Polish history to be operated in an atmosphere of mutual trust by Polish and Jewish organizations of a broad political and socioeconomic spectrum. One of its vice-presidents was a member of Bund, Leon Feiner. Its secretary was Adolf Berman, who represented Zionist organizations. One of the better-known Polish members of the Provisional Committee was professor Władysław Bartoszewski, co-founder of Żegota, who would serve as Poland's Minister of Foreign Affairs through most of 1995. Other members included Anna Maria Lasocka, wife of the President of the Polish Landowners Association, and social democrat Czesława Wojeńska. The Provisional Committee comprised Polish underground organizations that recognized the authority of the Government in Exile. Hence it did not include the communist Polish Workers' Party (PPR), which provided similar aid to Jews. The successor to the Provisional Committee to Aid Jews was Żegota, founded in December 1942. ==References== * (Andrzej Krasnowolski "Żegota" - konspiracyjna Rada Pomocy Żydom w okupowanej Polsce 1942-1945 ) * (Fritz Hirschberger: ''The Fifth Horseman.''
