The situation of the Jews in Slovakia has shown no marked improvement in the many months since their liberation, and many are in desperate economic straits and subject to anti-Semitic discrimination, speakers said today, addressing a conference of Slovakian Jewish community councils.

Dr. Joseph Lettrich, chairman of the Slovak National Council, semi-autonomous parliament, assured the delegates, who pressed him for some statement, that Slovak political groups would repair the wrongs done to the Jews. The meeting discussed the general legal, financial, economic and political situation of the Jews in Slovakia.
