Jewish inhabitants in the suburbs of Warsaw have today submitted a complaint to the Club of Jewish Deputies, with the request for intervention with the Polish authorities. The complaint which bears the signatures of eight victims declares that their business necessitates daily travel from Wolomin to Warsaw. In the same train, on the return journey to Wolomin there also travel pupils of the evening classes who habitually at tack Jewish travelers, tear their beards, destroy the goods which they carry with them and use rubber truncheons and needles for torturing the Jewish travelers. They add that this has been going on for more than eight days. The statement makes particular mention of a specific incident when a traveling Jewish youth was thrown about by hooligans like a ball from one group to another.
