The expulsion of Jews from Hungary as “the only remedy” for the Jewish problem there is urged by the Hungarian Premier, Nicholas von Kallay, according to a report from Budapest published in the Donau Zeitung, a Nazi newspaper for the Balkan countries, reaching here today.
The paper reports that new and more severe anti-Jewish legislation is soon to be expected in Hungary. Measures will also be proclaimed against Jews allegedly evading the anti-Jewish laws by handing over their enterprises to non-Jewish friends who are willing to protect Jewish business firms from being “aryanized” or “liquidated.” A special committee “to fight evaders of the anti-Jewish legislation” will be established by the Hungarian government in line with Premier von Kallay’s anti-Jewish policy.
