An unusually severe sentence of twenty months in jail was imposed here today on Reuben David Spolter, accuse od of having organized an anti-Hitler demonstration before the German consulate on June 13.

The demonstration was in protest against the visit to Poland of Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebbels. When the Nazi firebrand was visiting Poland, all attacks against him were repressed.

Since that time Poland has concluded an agreement with Nazi Germany providing for mutual defense against unfavorable publicity. The press censorship departments of the two countries also agreed to suppress all attacks on both governments.
