POLITICAL MURDERS IN POLAND
WARSAW, August 11. The political murder of Mr Tadeusz Zeglicki, Governor of Lomza, who was a prominent Polish Socialist, is causing alarm among members of the Socialist Party. The murderers, who belonged to a group described as “the underground nationalist army,” also killed Mr Stanislaw Tonski, a member of the pro-Government Peasant Party. The murders are held to be a reply to the recent arrests and trials of Right Wing Socialists and also a warning to the Socialist Party against fusion with the Communists.
A large number of members of the underground movement are still in hiding, although about 50,000 have surrendered.
