Poles Blame Germans for Incidents at Tarnow
Warsaw reports a new wave of subversive acts blamed on Germans as 17 people were killed and 38 seriously injured by a time bomb at Tarnow railroad station. German arrests followed, with bomb discoveries in Katowice and a bomb found on a track between Kraj and Krakow. Warsaw papers fronted editorials denying Polish mistreatment in Germany and urging population exchanges. Transportation and trade with the United States were disrupted by German actions, while interior authorities ordered child ID tags to aid identification in emergencies.

In Berlin, Aug. 29, wartime controls bar purchases regardless of money. A hundred dollar bill or 1000 marks buys little as the Reich enforces rationing without custom letters stamped by Nazi authorities. Many Germans, once prosperous, learn money is useless under the new wartime economy.
