ANTI-GERMAN POLES
VIOLENT DEMONSTRATIONS VAIN OFFICIAL PROTESTS WARSAW, April 11 The Polish campaign against Germany is being continued with unabated violence, in spite of the German Legation's protests against the excesses at Lodz. Anti-German demonstrations occurred at Poznan, where a large crowd, including numerous students, forcibly removed all German papers and periodicals from the kiosks, and subsequently made a bonfire of .them on the public square. Similar demonstrations took place at Rybnik (Eastern Upper Silesia), in the course of which a collision occurred between students and persons belonging to the German minority. The police, who did not interfere with the Polish demonstrators, arrested 17 Germans, 11 of whom were summarily sentenced to terms of imprisonment varying from one week to two months. N Order apparently has been restored at Lodz, but all goods of German origin have been removed from the shops. Anti-German demonstrations, planned at Warsaw by students, have been prevented by the police.
