(Jewish Telegraphic Agency)
A book containing all data on the anti-Jewish massacres in the Ukraine during the Petlura period will be issued here in September by the Committee of Jewish Delegations. The documents, which have been prepared in connection with the Schwartzbard trial, will be issued in French and English.
It was learned here that a Ukrainian colonel, who served in Petlura’s army, has offered to testify in the Schwartzbard trial to prove Petlura’s guilt.
The Committee of Jewish Delegations has also announced that it has transmitted all the material concerning the Ukrainian pogroms to M. Henri Torres, Schwartzbard’s counsel for the defense.
