Anti-Semitic students, members of the Christian Democratic Party, paraded yesterday, the anniversary of the adoption of the Polish Constitution of 1791, with banners carrying anti-Jewish inscriptions. “Poland Only for Christian Poles,” read one banner.
“Down with the Jews, let the Jews go to Palestine!” shouted many of the demonstrants. Anti-government cries were also heard during the parade.
