itary authorities have promulgated a
bewildering mass of laws and regula.
lions which must be compiled with on
pain of severe fines. AS these laws are
printed in German and Lithuanian
neither of which the Jews understand
they have umwittingly broken them
and have thus been subjected to fine.
The payment of these fines has formed
such a serious drain upon the already
impoverished Jews that thousands OF
families have been compelled to sell
their clothing and bedding in order to
raise the necessary money.
The distress of the Lithuanian Jews
has been exploited by the German an.
thorities who have invited them to
work in German munition factories
for 200 marks or about SAT a month.
AS most of the Jews, because of their
distrust of the Prussians, refused.
they were sent as suspicious .charact,
ers to an intcrnment camp where they
were brutally treated Many of them
yielded to the demands of their con-
querers and were then deported TO
Germany where they had to work Il
hours day under the most CALLING
conditions in munitiOn factories. OF
the promised 200 marks very little in
deed comes into the hands of the Jew
ist workers. Half of it is charged for
their board and lodging. and out of
the other half they are Obliged to pay
not only wOrkmens' rates and taxes in
the locality of the camp but also the
rates and taxes in the Lithuanian
towns from which they came, The
balance, which is little enough, is sent
back to Lithuania where it is not. i'll

Police Help Anti-Jewsh Riots.
The lot of Jews in Galicia is even
worse for thew have been the victims
of pOgromS. most of which have been
carried through without the slightest
interference from the authorities
Most of the riots, of which there were
several in CraCow. were preceded by
the distribution of inflamatory pam
Dhlets, and although timely warning
was conveyed to the government au
thorities of the intended attacks nc
measures were taken for the defense
of the Jews until after serious damage
had been done During the riot al
Wieliczka. the local authorities re
ceived direct orders not to interfere
with the rioters, who were actually
aided by the chief of police.
| Repeated protests against these pro
! ceedings have been made by JeWlsf
and by non-Jewish deputies in the
Austrian parliament. But as yet, nj
assurance has been given by the gov
eminent that the Jews will be granted
protection in the future. In comparison
with these savage assaults on life ant
property. the prohibition of Hebrew o.
Yiddish in letters liable to censorship
the exclusion from the Cracow uniVer
sitv of students who registered al
members of the Jewish nationality
the Imprisonment of members OF th'
Zionist Socialist society, and the mo
lestation and robbery of Jewish pas
sengers in trains may perhaps be con
sidered trifles.
