POLES EXECUTE TWO
JEWESSES—NO TRIAL
Warsaw—Disna, a Jewish townlet
in Lithuania, has been the scene of a
terrible tragedy. The Polish authori-
ties announced that they had cap-
tured two Jewesses who were smug-
gling goods across the Dwina. Im-
mediately afterwards the Jewish
Burial Society was called upon to
bury the two women, who bad ap-
parently been executed without trial.
Three friends of the victims were
fined 70,000 roubles, but as they were
unable to pay it, they were arrested,
and the Jewish community was or-
dered to pay the sum. Ifere again
the impoverished townlet could not
raise the money, and a series of re-
prisals by the authorities began. All
Jewish shops were sealed, and the
goods were held as security fur the
tine. Jews, too, were prohibited from
leaving the townlet. As they could
not even go to the neighboring vil-
lages, our co-religionists were liter-
ally left without food. In addition,
the police carried out a number of
searches. in many Jewish houses, and
increased the number of detained
hostages. FinaUy , the community,
after parting with the 21,000 marks,
which had been sent to the townlet
by the Jewish Aid Fund as a relief
subsidy, paid the debt in full. Two

the payment of the fine the persons
under detention were released. the
shops were opened, and all restric-
flops were annulled.

POLISH CONCEPTION
OF RECONSTRUCTION

ducing necessary commodities for the
country and employing many work-

authorities because its owner is a

Upon what grounds was this van-

stated that it needed Coltman's far

Recently the Polish government
was interpolated by the Jewish Di p-
uties, Greenbaum and Farbstein, in
regard to the illegal requisition of
factories owned by Jews. It is doubt-
ful whether this action will bring the
desired results. So full of race hatred
is the Polish ruling class that it would
