Tadeusz Dymowski, notorious Polish anti-Semitic leader, former member of parliament and director of the anti-Jewish boycott organization, Rozwoj, collapsed in his prison cell when he was informed that he had not been re-elected to the Sejm.
Dymowski, against whom charges of fraud and swindle were formulated in connection with his activities in the boycott organization, was imprisoned several months ago. His friends included him in the list of their party for parlimentary election in the hope that his election would secure him immunity from the courts. He was transferred to the prison hospital.
