A campaign of terror being waged by Endeks (anti-Semitic Nationalists) in the town of Frzytyk in the Opoczno district is threatening the livelihood of 600 Jewish families, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency was informed today by the Jewish Small Traders Union of that town.

Appealing through the J.T.A. for public opinion to act against the Endeks, the Union declared that boycott agitation is growing worse daily. Endeks, the Union charges, are picketing Jewish shops and market stalls. Peasants who are prospective customers are prevented from entering the Jewish stores.

The situation, the Union States, is aggravated by the fact that the police are not interfering with the Endek activities. The Governor of Radom, province in which the town is located, is also inactive and intervention by the Jewish deputies in the Polish Parliament has proved vain.
