Threats pregnant with danger to the Jewish population of Poland have been voiced yesterday and today in the Gazeta Warszawska, chief organ of the National Democratic party which is known for its anti-Semitic policy. In articles by M. Novatchinsky and Professor M. Rybarsky, leaders of the party, the Jews are blamed for the present economic difficulties in Poland.
Professor Rybarsky’s piece, replete with incitement against the Jews, declares that “if Polish public opinion starts a campaign against the Jews, it will be only the natural result of Jewish polities in our country.” The anti-Semitic leader adds that sentiment against the Jews is growing among nationalistic elements in Poland.
The article, which is a direct warning to the Jews, has aroused much comment in today’s Yiddish press, which emphasizes that new trends are becoming manifest of late in Poland where no such venomous anti-Semitic articles have appeared in a long time.
