The Prefect of Radautz, M. Visan, it says, fearing that there might be trouble, prohibited the Congress, but the central Government in Bucharest overruled him and sent orders that the Congress should be permitted to assemble. Several clashes took place meanwhile between peasants led by students on the one side, and polico and military on the other.
When the Government permission for the Congress arrived, the paper states, several of the delegates delivered impassioned addresses culogising Cuza and Hitler as the founders of the “Christian League” for the protection of Christian Europe against the “Jewish League of Nations”. The participants in the Conference took a solemn oath to follow them and to carry out their orders.
