The exclusion of non-Roumanians from the schools, the abolition of the churches, the naturalization of Christian foreigners within six months or else forced emigration, the conversion of Mohammedans and the emigration of Armenians are the demands included in the programme of the Cuza party as published in their organ, “Stralucitorul,” and republished in the Austrian press.
The Cuzists also call for “the slaughter of the Jews, burning their synagogues and rabbinical institutions and abolish the New and Old Testament because they are full of lies and are immoral.” Amazement is expressed here that these demands are freely published in a paper that is not confiscated and also appear in Cuzist papers in other Roumanian towns.
