Kenneth Stockton, executive vice-president of International Telegraph and Telephone Company, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency today that he had not heard of the discharge of Jewish employees by the Rumanian Telephone Company.
Mr. Stockton said that I.T. and T. had no control over the employes of the Rumanian company. The American company operates the Rumanian telephone lines under concession from the Rumanian Government, which stipulated that all employes be governed by the civil service requirements set up by Bucharest. There are only about 10 or 12 Americans on the Rumanian staff, he said.
