An official complaint against anti-Semitic agitation and boycott propaganda throughout Bulgaria directed against the Jewish population, was submitted to the Bulgarian government by the Jewish Central Consistory, a Jewish communal organization recognized by the Bulgarian government.
The complaint is directed against the anti-Semitic organization, Rodna Zashtshita, which is responsible for the boycott propaganda and which has issued anti-Semitic pamphlets and posters. It is believed that Russian emigres resident in Bulgaria are behind the movement.
The Bulgarian government has promised to take the necessary steps, it was stated.
The Central Jewish Consistory of Bulgaria was the only Jewish communal organization in the world which officially joined the Iyar organization month proclaimed by the World Zionish Organization for the purpose of increasing the membership of the organization. The Consistory issued instructions to all its subsidiary organizations for special lectures on Zionist topics to be held during this month and that special emphasis be laid on Jewish history and Hebrew literature in the schools during the organization month.
