The terrorization against the Jewish population in Pommerania was made the subject of an interpellation yesterday by the Club of Jewish Deputies to the Minister of Interior.
The interpellation includes a letter from the Jewish Community of Grudzians and the Jewish Merchants Union of Thorn.
The first letter describes the lack of safety for Jews in the streets and public places where they are continuously attacked by hooligans walking in groups of twenty.
In Thorn, says the memorandum, the boycotters were assisted by the press in their agitation against the Jews.
The Jewish Deputies demand that the guilty be punished and the agitating press be confiscated, inasmuch as more serious excesses are in store if these measures are not taken.
The terrorization against the Jews has spread to the roadside between Rogow and Lodz where hooligans have made it a habit to attack and rob Jewish merchants.
Among those seriously wounded are Leib Hochspiel, aged 30, and Menashe Nisenbaum, sixty, who were found in a pool of blood. Together with them were three Jewish tramps, one of them aged sixty-five, who was unconscious and who had sustained broken arms and legs.
The hooligans, it is stated, are for the most part, sons of well-to-do farmers. Four arrests were made.
