DEMAND THREE MILLION
KRONEN TRIBUTE.


KRONEN TRIBUTE.
The Jewish National Council of
Vienna charges that the Polish Com
mandant Of Przymesl, Lt.-Col.
Tokarzewski has demanded from
the Jewish population payment OF
three million kronen, and threatens
that unless this money is forthcom-
ing shortly, he will order his troops
to ransack all the Jewish homes OF
the town, and take the money by
force. The Council has cabled the
Zionist Organization Of America
that it is petitioning the government
at Cracow and Warsaw to prevent
this newest form Of outrage.
The Zionist Organization Of A
merica is informed by the Copen-
hagen Zionist Bureau, that not
withstanding the warning of the
British Government, progroms still
continue in Galicia and in Poland. 1t
has received reports from ey-wit-
nesses describing the terrible situa-
ton which obtains in Warsaw. Many
hundreds of Jews have been as
saulted, and ten have been killed,
while all the shops in the town have
been plundered. The Jews of Po-
land feel that their only hope is in
tervention by foreign governments.
They have received from authorl-
tive and unprejudiced sources, in
Copenhagen, Amsterdam, London
and The Hague, explicit cable
grams showing that pogroms are
taking place in Galicia and various
parts of Poland and Roumania. I'm
fortunately there is reason for
crediting these reports, particularly
in regard to Poland, since most
virulent economic boycott has been
waged there against the Jews con-
tinuously since 1912. Mr.. Dmowski,
the President of the Polish National
Committee, whose representatives
in the United States at this time is
Mr.. John F. Smu1ski, has publicly
admitted his responsibility for the
boycott, and he and his party asso-
ciates have thus far declined to take
any action looking to it's termintion.
He and Mr.. Paderewski, although
informed of the alarming reports

which have come to us from Poland,
when requested to protest against
these reported outrages, likewise de-
clined to do so.
In these circumstances the i'm
mediate appointment and junction

sirable, so that the world may know
all the facts.

IT'S JEWISH ORGANIZATIONS
JOIN IN DEMAND FOR POG-
ROM INVESTIGATION.
Julian w. Mack, President of the
Zionist Organization of America,
and Louis Marshall, President Of the
American Jewish Committee, joined
in a reply to the statement that ap-
peared in the press issued by the
Polish National Committee and the
Polish National Department deny

that have come to this country re-
Gently concerning pogroms against
the Jews in Poland and de-
handing the appointment of an
inter-allied and American COM
mission to investigate these re-
ports and set at rest the allegations
that pogroms have occurred.
The reply of Messrs. Mack and
Marshall is as follows:
1.-THE American representatives of
the Polish National Committee and
of the Polish National Department
have issued "a statement in which
they insinuate that the Jews are in
imical to Polish independence and
that groundless charges have been
circulated by them to the effect that
Jewish massacres are occurring in
Poland. These organizations state
that Joint demand has been made
by them for the appointment of an
inter-a1lied and American commits
sion to be sent into Poland to in
vestigate existing conditions and
thus set at rest the allegations that
Jewish pogroms have been carried
out there"
The American Jewish Committee
and the Zionist Organization Of
America welcome the appointment
of such. commission most heartily
and stand ready to cooperate with
the Polish organizations in bringing
about the immediate designation of
such commission. They take this
opportunity to deny that the Jews
are in any way unfriendly to Polish
independence. Their sole desire has
