Two workers are being tried in the Odessa court for sabotaging a local factory because the manager was a Jew.
The workers, Tzichotsky and Antzut, disclaimed that they were motivated by anti-Jewish feeling. Evidence, submitted, however, showed that the damage done to the machinery by the workers was due to their attitude toward Kintzler, manager of the factory.
