  1. In late September 1939... Heydrich began to place all Polish Jews in
  2. ghettos, where they could slowly die of hunger and disease. The Warsaw
  3. ghetto was the largest of these segregated areas established by the
  4. Nazis in Poland.
  5.  
  6. In the summer of 1940 Heydrich, using the excuse that the spread of
  7. typhus had to be contained, set up a special section 11 miles in
  8. circumference enclosed by a brick wall 10 feet high.
  9.  
  10. In September 1940 more than 80,000 gentile Poles living in the
  11. "infected area" were ordered to leave, and the next month about
  12. 140,000 Jews living elsewhere in the city were moved in with the
  13. 240,000 still in the ghetto. Some 360,000 Jews, a third of Warsaw's
  14. population, were herded into a 3.5-square-mile area. 300 to 400 died
  15. daily... More than 43,000 starved to death during the first year, and
  16. 37,000 in the first nine months of 1942.
  17.  
  18. ...Mass deportations to the gas chambers at Treblinka began. In two
  19. months 300,000 Jews were eliminated.
  20.  
  21. ...Fewer than 100 escaped, and of those, only a handful survived the
  22. war.
