The mastery surrounding the disappearance of a group of Jews attempting to cross into Czechoslovakia from Poland, near the Polish town of Szczawnic, was solved today by a report from Cracow stating that 12 of the emigrants had been killed and seven wounded when they were ambushed by anti-Government anti-Semitic bandits.
Funeral services for the twelve were held in Cracow with representatives of the Government, trade unions, political parties and other groups attending. The massacre has aroused the entire nation and spurred official efforts to crush the bands which have been terrorizing the countryside.
