Twelve Jews were injured today when a mob of 100 anti-Semites attacked Jewish traders in the town of Rawa-Mazowiecka, near Warsaw. Nearly 100 Jewish market stalls were destroyed.

The attack was precipitated when Jewish traders tried to return to their accustomed places in the market after a “ghetto” section instituted by Nationalists had been declared illegal and prohibited by the authorities.
