The entire output of the Institute for Jewish Proletarian Culture in the Academy of Science in the Ukraine is being re-examined.

All open and concealed nationalists, Trotzkyists and others who have diverged from the “proper” path and have smuggled counter-revolutionary ideas into the work of the Institute will be removed.

The campaign started with a speech by Leader Postishev of the Bolshevist party organization in the Ukraine, in which he called for action to smash the remaining elements of counter-revolution.

According to the newspaper Stern of Kharkov, there are counter-revolutionaries left in the Jewish high schools, scientific institutions and villages.
