A memorandum was submitted today by the Jewish labor party, Bund, to the authorities, giving the full names of the killed and injured in the riots. The Government Commissioner of the city of Warsaw, in charge of safety arrangements during the May Day celebrations, declared to the representative of the Jewish labor party, Poale Zion, that the dispersion of the party’s demonstration was the result of a misunderstanding on the part of the authorities and that an investigation has been instituted.
