The newly-formed Slovakian anti-Semitic party, known as the National Christian Party of Workers and Peasants, is now defunct owing to the sudden disappearance of the treasurer and the treasury.

The secretary-treasurer, Julius Mattyasovsky, was made defendant in an action for the misappropriation of the 2,000 krenen in members’ contributions. The complainant was the founder of the party, Josef Hamsik, former Fascist leader.

The anti-Semitic paper Slovenska Pravda has been suspended by the authorities for publishing a false quotation from the Talmud, Jewish collection of commentary and lore, according to reports from Bratislava.
