Description

Flyer for the General Jewish National Bloc, list #1. “The General Jewish National Election Bloc #33 has adopted a resolution that in the elections to the senate in Warsaw, in the Warsaw, Lublin, and Kielce regions, Jews should vote for #33, because there is a chance of electing a Jew. / In all other regions, i.e. also in the Bialystok region, where there is absolutely no chance at all of electing a Jewish candidate, it has been decided that Jews should all vote as one for list #1 of the apolitical bloc for cooperation with the government of Marshall Pilsudski, which is leading a fight in Poland against anti-Semitism, ensuring prosperity and economic development for the Jewish people.” “The Jews of the Bialystok region should especially give thought, where the Sejm elections showed clearly that all Belorussians betrayed their Jewish partners in an ugly way in the 18th, giving all their votes to the Communisty list; after such a betrayal on the part of the Belorussians, the continued support of the list for the Minorities Bloc num. 18, which has absolutely no chance of success, could be interpreted in a bad way by the government!” “Because of num. 18, in Warsaw the reactionary and anti-Semite Stranitcky was elected, on account of the 19,000 Jewish votes which were lost because of Slate 18!”
