Copies of a song about the anti-Semitic excesses in Przytyk last March 10 were confiscated by the authorities today and its rendition prohibited.

The ballad was composed by Moshe Grossfeld, a street singer, to commemorate the riots in which three Jews died and more than a score were seriously wounded.
