Minister of Education Dr. Kromer denied today in the Czechoslovakian Parliament that the Government desires to force the Jews of Carpatho-Russia, the western section of Czechslovakia, to send their children to State schools.
He declared that if fifty per cent of the Jewish children prefer the Czech schools, it is because the Carpatho-Russian Jews wish their children to master the State language.
