In spite of all assurances given by representatives of the Government Jews stand no chance at all of obtaining employment in State positions, even if they have the highest qualifications and there are no alternative suitable non-Jewish candidates, the Club of Jewish Deputies complains in an interpellation to the Prime Minister, introduced at to-day’s session of the Seym.
Jewish engineers are unable to obtain employment even now when there is a shortage of engineers in the country, the interpellation proceeds, citing documents and figures in proof of the contention that it is the regular system in all public offices not to admit Jews. There is not merely a numerus clausus, but a numerus nullus in force in the public services against Jewish applicants, the interpellation asserts.
