Polish Jews Charged in Parliament
As 'Privileged' Element in Country
WARSAW (JTA i.—The first
anU-Jewish statements on the
floor of the new Polish parlia
ment were made this week by
Deputy Ziegmunt Zulawski, a for
mer leader of the Polish Social
ists. wh broke with the party and
is the only "independent Social
ist” member of parliament.
Criticizing the present regime,
the aged Socialist aiso attacked
the Jews. He said that "the Jews
in Poland today are a privileged
element” and blamed them for
the anti-Semitic tendencies in the
country, asserting that "anti-
Semitism is a reaction to Jewish
behavior." He particularly criti
cized the fact that ‘‘Jews are occu
pying high positions in govern
ment offices.”
Prof. Joseph Sack, one of the
Jewish deputies, replying to Zu-
lawski's charges that tlie Jews re
ceived special treatment in the
government budget, pointed out
that the sum which the Jewish
Central Committee receives from
the government is less than five
per cent of the committee’s budg
et. Ninety-five per cent of the
budget, he asserted, is covered by
Jewish contributions from abroad.
The largest part of our budget is
being spent on constructive work
which also serves the interests of
the country,” he added.
Sack, who is vice-chairman of
the .Tewnsh Central Committee,
port of tlie present government.
He lauded the government's pol
icy of granting the Jews “full and
actual equality,” of encouraging
Jewish national life within the
country, and erf taking “a positive
attitude toward the emigration
tendencies prevailing among a
large part of the Jewish popula
tion.” He also praised the attitude
taken by the Polish delegation at
the United Nations Special As
sembly on Palestine.
