When this arrangement was made,
the next sten to be taken was to get

Tendler time until October 1 to ac-

Polish Officer Suppresses
Anti-Semitism Among Men

WARSAW.—The commanding offi-
cer of the new Polish regiment
which recently entered Sedlitz has
received the grateful thanks of the
Jews of the city for having taken
effective measures which forestalled
and prevented threatened anti-Semit-
ic demonstrations on the part of his
soldiers. After discovering the be-
ginning of an agitation among his
men which would very likely have led
to serious results, the commander
took immediate steps to let it be
known that no disturbances of such
a nature would lie countenanced.
