Attacking the numerus clausus policy in the Hungarian universities as more harmful to the Christian youth than to the Jewish students against whom it is aimed, the Budapest paper, Pester Lloyd, commenting on the revival of the question with the opening of the new college year says, “It does not solve the social and economic problems of the middle class or the surplus of intelligentsia.” Pester Lloyd also points out that the numerus clausus injures Hungary culturally and damages its prestige by creating anti-Semitic and racial hysteria each year.
