Because the Nazi element in the group demanded that Jews be excluded from its sessions, factional clashes have broken out among members of the German Artists Union.

Jewish participants refused to leave yesterday’s meeting even after State Councillor Habedank had ordered their exclusion. As a result the meeting was dissolved with police intervention. Several arrests were made. Scrap of Paper.” A missing line made the end of the editorial unintelligible.

The last lines read thus:

“The Nazi influence of this repudiation of her moral obligations, she may find herself, like Naziland, isolated and alienated from her most powerful friends among the nationals.”

The last sentences should have been:

“The Nazi influence has led Poland astray. As a result of this repudiation of her moral obligations, she may find herself, like Naziland, isolated and alienated from her most powerful friends among the nations.”
