- The following is from Australia's A.N.M., P.O. Box 40, Summer Hill, N.S.W. 2130:
- Dear Respected Reader: Since 1945 there have been many conflicting claims concerning the numbers of Jewish people (and others) who died at Auschwitz-Birkeneu (Oswiecim, concentration camp). However, it is only recent research and access to hitherto unavailable documents, that these numbers have drastically lowered, possibly indicating that more of our people survive. Perhaps the 6 mills often publicized (though our best figure is 4.3 million) may also need to be revised lower, we hope so.
- Dr. Nathan Nussbaum, Honorary Director, Centre for Jewish Holocaust Studies.
- According to official documents in the French Republic (institute for the Examination of War-criminals) the number that died in Auschwitz was: 8,000,000
- According to the French daily newspaper "Le Monde" (20 April, 1978): 5,000,000
