Disclosure is Severe Blow to Polish Racial Bigots (Jewish Telegraphic Agency)
Another blow to the bigots in Poland responsible for the anti-Jewish boycott agitation was dealt by the Lemberg police yesterday when the leaders of the Rozvoj, the boycott organization in Eastern Gal-icia, were arrested on charges of fraud.
All the members of the praesidium of the organization, Tarnowski, chairman, Hunka, vice-chairman, and Subszycki, secretary, were arraigned in court after it was disclosed that they were guilty of a swindle scheme. The Rozvoj leaders created what they asserted to be a motion picture enterprise, with the aim of fleecing young women and men who aspire to a career in the moving pictures. Filipowski, second vice-chairman of the Lemberg Rozvoj, was arrested a month ago after it was found that he was secretly conducting a house of ill repute.
