Two hundred and fifty unemployed Jewish graduates of professional schools went on a hunger strike yesterday because the relief committee subsidizing kitchens for such graduates and other intellgentzia have closed their kitchens.
The intellectuals, forced to join other needy Jews at the common relief kitchens, insist that they are not accustomed to eating indigestible food, which is causing much illness among them.
