Lublin police today broke up a second attempted “March to Palestine” of young Jews under the leadership of the Warsaw attorney Wilhelm Ryppel.
The march, organized to attract attention to the plight of Jews in Poland this time got under way quietly and without the publicity attendant on the first such project last Fall which ended a few miles outside of Warsaw.
Dozens of the marchers were arrested and the others dispersed by the police near the town of Pilow in the Lublin district. As in the previous march, the youths had no visas.
