“Nothing has done so much harm to the Polish people as anti-Semitism,” Michael Pankiewicz, vice-president of the League to Combat Racism and Anti-Semitism in Poland, declared last night addressing a mass meeting in Cracow, which is one of the few cities in Poland where anti-Semitism is still strong.
The meeting was attended by prominent Polish personalities including many professors of the local university and high local officials. The meeting decided to establish a Cracow branch of the League to Combat Racism and Anti-Semitism.
