Despite active press censorship and a government order calling for the arrest of all Nara members who make anti-Jewish outcries in public, the Nara official organ Stafeta is continuing its inciting attacks upon Jews and members of the new Polish anti-Semitic party continue their acts of violence.
Every day the government orders the removal of a number of articles from Stafeta, with the result that the newspaper appears with many blank spaces. Nevertheless, those articles which remain contain poisonous attacks upon the Jews and incite the population.
Police have ordered the arrest of all Nara members who cry out anti-Semitic slogans in the streets. This has resulted in the arrest of a large number of vendors of the Stafeta, who use provocative out cries as part of their sales campaign.
Individual acts of terror by Nara have assumed the proportions of a campaign in Warsaw and in the provinces, where dozens of Jews have been attacked and wounded. One such victim is Shalom Miedinski, eighty years old, who was attacked on his own threshold and received serious head injuries.
In Vilna all windows of the museum dedicated to S. Ansky, Jewish publicist and dramatist, were smashed.
