An unchecked wave of savage anti-Semitic attacks has reduced the Jewish population in townships of the Bialystok area to a state “worse than during the World War,” Jewish newspapers here reported today.
Aid in the form of bread, potatoes and other necessities is still being sent to Jews in the neighboring towns of Czyzew, scene of recent rioting, Wysokie-Mazowiec, Tyktyn, Zambrew, Czechanoviec and others.
This relief, however, is “like a drop in the ocean,” the papers declare, holding that “urgent, constructive relief is necessary because the above townships still suffer severely from continuous Endek outbreaks.”
