There has been a renewal in the past few days of anti-Jewish assaults in the streets of Wilno by Polish Nationalist (Endek) students. Serious outbreaks had occurred here shortly before and immediately after cession of the Wilno district by Russia to Lithuania in October. One Endek was sentenced to death and another to 15 years’ imprisonment by a court martial for participation in the disorders.
