The attitude of the Polish Socialist Party in calling upon the population to vote at the municipal elections so that the Polish character of the capital should be preserved, has moved the Zionist Socialist Party Poale Zion to issue to it a direct challenge of anti-Semitism.

The Poale Zion has posted placards all over the city declaring that by making its slogan: “a purely Polish Warsaw.” the Polish Socialist Party has ranged itself together with the anti-Semites of the National Democratic Party who are striving to de-Judaise Poland by depriving the Jews of every opportunity to engage in any form of activity.

The Poale Zion challenges the Polish Socialist Party to deny the charge and adds that if no denial is made, the silence will be taken to be tantamount to an admission.
