Both Catholic and Protestant churchmen and publications are sharply attacked in Hungarian anti-Semitic newspapers for publishing articles condemning anti-Semitism. They especially condemned an article in a Calvinist newspaper which charged that anti-Semitism “is among the chief reasons for our present misery.”
Meanwhile, the closed Jewish textile firms are being looted of their goods and the Hungarian press reports that the Minister of the Interior has issued an order declaring that such shops may be opened only with his permission and that no persons are to be given cloth from their stocks unless he has a written requisition.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
