Hungary has not changed its attitude with regard to the solution of the so-called Jewish problem in the country it is stated by the president of the Hungarian Press Chamber, Mr. Borcsa, in an article published in Budapest newspapers reaching here today. He points out that the government’s present policy is expressed in the various anti-Jewish measures which have been enacted.
The writer says that the “solution” of the Jewish question in Hungary has only been “somewhat delayed by the war.” He considers the present treatment of Jews in Hungary to be “very tolerant.”
The Hungarian Institute for Research on the Jewish Question made public this week a list of names of Hungarian Jewish writers “in order to help the public in the campaign to abolish Jewish intellectual influence.” Libraries and clubs are invited by the Institute to report on the number of books written by Jewish writers which they have removed from their shelves.
