A list of Polish Jews who are being held in Germany pending trial on charges of “rassenschande” (race-
pollution) has been compiled by the United Committee for Combating Jewish Persecution in Germany, that organization announced today.
The committee disclosed that one Polish Jew, Maurice Risa, has already been sentenced to one and a half years at hard labor by a German court. It announced that the Polish Government has been asked to intervene in all instances where Polish Jewish citizens are involved in “rassenschande.”
