Isaac Gruenbaum, Jewish deputy and father of the national minorities bloc idea, may be slated as the bloc’s candidate for the post of speaker of the Polish parliament, states the “Glos Prawdy,” Government organ, today.
This will be nothing more than a demonstration as the chances of his election are negligible, the paper states. The Sejm will be reopened the end of March. The candidate of the pro-Government party will probably be elected speaker. The Polish peasants party, Wyzwolenie, and the Polish Socialist party will also put up candidates for the post.
