  ... Yashnitza and others. During the elections to the "Seim" (Parliament), which occurred once every few years, the country was divided into different election areas, and each area was represented by a number of seats. Brzozow was associated with the Przemysl electoral area. During the period of Polish independence, between the two World Wars, Brzozow belonged, from an administrative point of view, to the region of Woje-wodztwo Lwow.

Mamber operated a secret radio, and also ran a printing press, both of which kept the partisans informed of developments. The Gorlitzer and Greiff girls saved them-selves with the help of Aryan papers. In many instances trusting Jews gave their savings and valuables to Ukranian "friends and good neighbors" for safe-keeping. A Jewish owner of the beauty salon, "Lwowianka", asked his "friend" Duszko to hold his money for him before taking to the woods.
