The anti-Semitic excesses against Jewish students at the University of Bucharest continued yesterday. An appeal to the anti-Semitic student body to stop the excesses, made by understate secretary Angelescu, was answered with the declaration that peace would be restored only on three conditions, first that a numerus clausus limiting the number of Jewish students in the Roumanian universities be introduced and, second, that Jewish students be removed from the dormitories, and, third, that an investigation be started against Professor Rainer. A Jewish professor at the university.

A protest resolution against the excesses was adopted by the Union of Roumanian Jews yesterday. The resolution urges the government to protect the Jewish students.

Konrad Bercovici, who is visiting here, called on Prime Minister Bratianu, intervening with the Minister for the protection of the Jewish students.
