New anti-Jewish outbreaks were reported yesterday in Eastern Galician towns.
A Jew, named Goldfarb was seriously hurt and another, Shloime Melgiser, less seriously injured, in disorders in Turka.
A mob in Stanislawow attacked Jews for having allegedly assaulted a Pole who tried to prevent a Jew, Edward Lew, from removing an anti-Semitic sign chalked on the street. Several Jews were given medical attention.
In Kadorow, an unidentified person hurled a bomb at the home of Chaim Wald, which failed to explode.
Police arrested eight persons for the bombing of Jewish institutions in Lwow and Stanislawow in a raid on secret headquarters of the illegal anti-Semitic National Radical Party. The headquarters were liquidated.
Six Jews, in addition to eight previously arrested, were under arrest today for participation in the March 10 riots in Przytyk during which three Jews were killed and more than a score wounded.
The leader of the anti-Semites charged with instigating the Przytyk excesses, Stanislaw Korczak, was freed today, while the authorities prepared to try fifty-six persons in Radom early next month on charges of having taken part in the disorders.
Fourteen Jews are included among the defendants, of whom eleven are accused of having participated in street attacks, two of having fired revolvers without injuring any one, and one, Shlomo Lewka, of having shot a peasant named Ciezak.
Thirty-five of the forty-two Polish defendants were imprisoned and seven released pending trial. Relatives of eight of the arrested Jews visited them today in prison.
The exhibits in the case include four cartridges, an axe used to kill Pessach Minkowski, a shoemaker, and his wife, and various other weapons.
