A strike of street car conductors was threatened by the Conductors’ Organization in a protest submitted to the administration.
The conductors demand that no Jews be employed by the management, and that those Jews already in employment by the company should be dismissed. A similar protest was submitted to the Warsaw city government, which is control of the street cars.
Investigation shows that among the several thousand employees of the street car company, only two are Jews.
