"In the shadow of Treblinka"

 For those of you who read Polish. Simche Polakiewicz's book "In the shadow of Treblinka" has just been published. Inside there are two of his books: "In the shadow of Treblinka" and "A Day in Treblinka" translated from Yiddish into Polish. This is a very important testimony. Highly recommended!

Szafran's mill

 Szaja Szafran's mill and power plant were located here in this place. In June 1931, the mill workers went on strike. They demanded a raise and an eight-hour work day. After 16 days, Szafran agreed to their demands.

When another strike broke out in 1933, Szafran refused to agree to a raise. So he hired Polish workers to replace the striking Jews.
