Sindel Joskowicz, a member of the Brith Hachail, a Zionist Revisionist organization, died last night from wounds suffered Sunday when a picnic party was attacked by a mob of anti-Semitic peasants.
Joskowicz was stabbed as the small party of Jews attempted to defend themselves. One other man, Hersch Czelosk, was seriously wounded and several others received slight injuries in the affray which took place in the outskirts of Nowemiasto in the Warsaw district.
