Three Jews today were sentenced to prison terms of two months each for defending themselves against the attacks of Naras, members of the violently anti-Semitic National Radical party. They are Shlomo Post, Schmuel Grinberg and Jacob Wandelevsky. This is the first such case on record in the recent outbreak of Nara attacks.

The Naras convoked a special meeting of maid servants to incite them against their Jewish employers and exhorted them to refuse to work for Jews since “Christian women should not eat Jewish bread.” The meeting failed of its purpose, however, since the girls insisted they must first be given other jobs before quitting their present employ enters and exhorted them to refuse to work for Jews since “Christian women should not eat Jewish bread.” The meeting failed of its purpose, however, since the girls insisted they must first be given other jobs before quitting their present employment.
