The report of Reuter’s Agency concerning the declaration of Rabbi Niemirower on the Jewish protests abroad against the excesses in Roumania was confirmed today by an official statement issued here.
According to this statement, Rabbi Niemirower protested from the floor of the Senate against the intervention of foreign Jews in the affairs of Roumanian Jewry. He also protested against “the participation of foreign Jews in the spreading of reports concerning anti-Jewish pogroms in Roumania.”
At a meeting of the Senate, the seat of Rabbi Niemirower as Senator representing the Jewish religion was confirmed disregarding the claim made by Rabbi Schor.
