With the Easter holidays approaching, the Polish anti-Semites have renewed their old boycott propaganda, under the slogan “Trade with your own.” They hope thereby to hurt the business of the Jewish merchants, whose busiest season is at Easter time.
Thousands of leaflets have been circulated by the boycott organization Rozwoj, all over Poland. In Kielce, the Rozwoj issued such an inflammatory circular against the Jews that the police found it necessary to confiscate it because it agitated one part of the population against the other.
