Semites, charged with having made an attack on patrons of a Jewish cafe, on the ground that the men were charged with an attempt to overthrow the existing order. The Endeks wounded a number of Jews.
They were immediately arrested and the government ordered the closing of the Endek headquarters located on the same street as the cafe. The swift arrests of the Lodz Endeks indicates that the authorities are determined to suppress anti-Jewish activities.
The official organ of the Polish government, Gazetta Polska, yesterday carried a cabled resume of the articles on the Polish Jewish situation written for the Jewish Daily Bulletin by Boris Smolar, staff correspondent of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency.
ATTACKS ON JEWS DENIED BY POLISH AGENCY HEAD
In a communication to the Jewish Daily Bulletin, Dr. A. Morawski Nawench, general representative of the Polish Telegraphic Agency stated: “I am authorized to deny most emphatically the reports published in the Jewish Daily Bulletin of August 7 and 10 on alleged anti-Semitic riots in Warsaw and Lodz and on the alleged passivity of the Polish government toward such excesses. The Polish government is always acting with the utmost energy and without delay against any attempts to provoke anti-Semitic excesses.”
