Jews were terrorized and windows in Jewish houses smashed yesterday in Marmorosh, according to advices received here today by Deputy Ilie Lazar from the editor of the Ujkelet, Hungarian-Jewish paper in Bukowina. According to the reports the Jews asked the prefect and the local gendarmerie for protection.
Deputy Lazar today called on John Mihalache, minister of the interior, to ask that stern measures be taken to prevent any serious anti-Semitic outbreaks in Marmorosh which the Jews now fear. This fear is based on the fact that the renewed anti-Jewish agitation there is being fostered by the priest, Father Anderco, who exercises great influence.
Mihalache has already sent orders to Marmorosh to give the Jews protection.
