Jews seize Christian children in the streets and kill them for ritual purposes, Helena Krulikouska, a teacher in the town of Ryki, told her pupils during lessons, the Ryki Jewish Community writes in a complaint addressed to the Ministry of Education, demanding that the Ministry should take action against the teacher. The fact that Jews use Christian blood was proved during the Beilis trial, she said to her children, although the American Jews were able to raise huge sums of money and get Beilis acquitted. I warn you Polish children, she went on, to take good care not to be killed by the Jews for their matzoth.
When a Jewish girl in the class, Rebecca Lerner, asked her why matzoth are not red, if blood is mixed with them, Krulikowska replied: Because the Jews use only small drops of blood.
