Menu JTA Search  Hold 20 Cuban Jews for Military Courts  Twenty
Jews were arrested today here and will face a military tribunal
for having kept their factories and stores closed during the
general strike. The government ordered all businesses to remain
open during the strike.  Factories and stores owned by the
arrested men have been sealed on orders from the central
government and the group turned over to the military
authorities.  An attempt made by the Jewish Juridical Committee
to intervene on behalf of the men failed. Military officials
declared that they must now be tried by military courts.
