Steps aiming to bring about the reorganization of the Jewish Kehillahs in Roumnnia, with a view of restoring to them their legal status, were inaugurated by the Maniu government.
The changes being made in the administration of the Kehillahs are consonant with the policy of the new government. Leaders of the Kehillabs who are members of the Liberal party in political affairs are being dismissed and provisional administrators. mainly Zionists who are favorably disposed toward the policies of the Roumanian Peasant Party, are being appointed instead. The majority of the new appointees are members of the Resisionists and the radical Hitachduth groups.
The new appointees have been told that their immediate task will be to restore the autonomous administration of the Kehillahs and that new elections of the communal boards are to be held soon.
