CRIMES IN POLAND
REVELATIONS OF ANTI-NAZI
MANIFESTO
LONDON, September 6,
The ashes of persecuted Catholics who die in concentration camps in Poland are sold to their relatives for seven marks. This is stated in a manifesto from the underground anti-Nazi movement in Poland. The manifesto, which was smuggled to England, says 'there are thousands of Catholics in concentration camps in Poland. Five thousand were murdered near Warsaw and buried in ditches over which roads were made in order to hide the crime.
The manifesto is an appalling record of facts, and is illustrated with many photographs—of Poles burying the bodies of shot comrades while they themselves are awaiting execution, of the deportation of the whole population of a small town, of a Polish church -in Poznan on which is affixed a ban upon entrance to ; Mass, and of women and girls being led blindfolded to execution.
