The delegation, which included a number of rabbis, was shown to its place on the platform, in accordance with arrangements of the Commandant of the local garrison. When the Jewish representatives ascended the platform, the Roumanian Bishop Ghenadie rose from his place, shouting. “We don’t want any mixing with you. Get down.” Whereupon the Jewish delegation left the celebration.
