The 3lst anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising was marked in Warsaw and elsewhere in Poland last Friday but it was not permitted to be a Jewish event. The commemorative ceremonies at the monument on the Ghetto site and in the Yiddish State Theater were organized by the Polish Commemorative Authority (Zbovid), with the Jewish Cultural and Social Association a poor second. The main speaker at the public rally in the theater was a representative of Zbovid, who described the uprising as a Polish national achievement. The Jewish speaker was Edouard Reiber, the chairman of the Jewish Cultural and Social Association.
