Three thousand employes of cooperatives in Ukrainia, mostly Jews, have been discharged because they avoided studying the Ukrainian language. No compensation was given them.

The central management of the cooperatives have therefore ordered discharged, without warning or compensation, all those who declined to study Ukrainian without a satisfactory reason.
