Hersch Czelosk and Sindel Joskowicz, members of the Brith Hachail, Revisionist military organization, were severely injured today, when Polish peasant youths armed with knives attacked a Brith Hachail excursion on the outskirts of Nowemiasto, in the district of Warsaw. The two men together with several of the lightly wounded members of the organization were removed to a hospital.
The Brith Hachail group defended itself vigorously by firing revolvers at their attackers until police arrived and dispersed the mob.
