The National Jewish Club has issued a manifesto in which it declares that “persons placing party interests above the interests of Roumanian Jews prevented the creation of a united Jewish front in the forthcoming elections.”
The National Club negotiated separately with Roumanian parties to safeguard the Jewish interests, but found it impossible to obtain any guarantees, the manifesto states.
Negotiations were therefore broken off and the Club recommends that Roumanian Jews vote for whomever their conscience dictates. After the elections. the manifesto states, the Club will demand a reckoning of those who divided the Jewish vote.
