Chemjo Wyszkowski, a Jew, from the town of Ceglow in the Minsk-Mazowiecki district in Poland has been executed in Warsaw after having been sentenced to death by a special court on charges of slaughtering cattle according to Jewish ritual, it is reported in the Lemberger Zei tung reaching here today.

The Nazi paper alleges that Wyszkowski bought the cattle in the Warsaw district without the permission of the authorities with the aid of his father, who committed suicide when informed that the German officials were going to arrest him.
