The Bethlen Government was under fire yesterday at a session of a parliamentary committee when the question of the numerus clausus was again discussed.
The committee took up the resolution introduced some time ago by Deputy Gyoerky, nationalist leader, charging the Bethlen Government with weakness in its attitude on the numerus clausus.
The modification bill was the result of foreign pressure, the resolution charged. In the committee yesterday Deputy Byoerky demanded that the Government submit to the League Council a copy of its memorandum on the numerus clausus and a detailed report of the examination of the Hungarian Government representative and of Count Bethlen’s declaration in which he had declared that Hungary will either have to modify the numerus clausus law or leave the League.
