Hungarian women are openly displaying their contempt for the pro-Nazi Hungarian regime by donning Mogen-Davids, which Jews are now compelled to wear, according to an article appearing in the Budapest newspaper, Uj Magyarsag, which reached here today.
The paper complains that “the women no longer confine their madness to listening to broadcasts from England and Moscow. Some now go so far as to demonstrate their sympathies in the streets. Especially ladies in new spring suits who wear the Star of David on their costumes.”
