A large number of Jewish artisans participated in the opening of the Warsaw Artisans’ Chamber yesterday. The Jewish artisans, who formed an imposing procession consisting of 28 Jewish guilds carrying standards and led by a band, paraded through the Jewish quarter. The Jewish artisans went to the Tlomackie synagogue while the Christian artisans assembled in the Cathedral. Both processions then reunited and proceeded to open the Artisans’ Chamber.
