Election On the 24 of this month expires the period of time for
forming lists. The attitute of the people is still very indefinite.
It seems that the Bloc of minorities will not be formed,and that
Jews will try to form a Jewish national list. It has been discovered
that Moscow Communists insfyucted Polish Communists to vote for the
bloc of minorities in case Com unists lists are cancelled. This news
increased the Governmental protests against the bloc of minorities and
made the Jews give up the idea of the bloc. The attitude of the
Government is to form a list of all elemen-s having sympathy for the
Government and desirous of cooperting wi the Government. The
Governmental press says that the political sympathies of the
elected persons will have little influence on the policies of the

parliament and therefore wants to see in the new Houses not
initiators of new law but persons who will not interfer with the
work of the Government,
