A JOINT RUMANIAN-POLISH FRONT TO PRESS THROUGH THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS FOR A POLICY OF FURTHER JEWISH EMIGRATION FROM BOTH COUNTRIES WAS DISCUSSED DURING A RECENT VISIT OF POLISH STATESMEN TO BUCHAREST, IT WAS DISCLOSED TODAY.
THE REVELATION WAS MADE IN AN ARTICLE BY JON MICHALACHE, LEADER OF THE NATIONAL PEASANTS PARTY, IN THE NATIONALIST PAPER CURENTUL. THE PEASANTS’ LEADER HAS BEEN CONSIDERED THE LEAST ANTI-SEMITIC OF ALL RUMANIAN POLITICIANS.
HE DECLARED THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS IS THE ONLY BODY ABLE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF PALESTINE SINCERELY AND COMPETENTLY.
HOLDING THAT A “JEWISH PROBLEM” EXISTS IN RUMANIA, HE ASSERTED THAT ITS ONLY SOLUTION WOULD BE “PEASANT CO-OPERATIVES, EDUCATION OF YOUTH AND GOVERNMENT SUPPORT FOR RUMANIAN ELEMENTS TO COMPENSATE FOR HISTORICAL, SOCIAL, NATIONAL AND ECONOMIC INJUSTICES.
BY THIS STATEMENT MICHALACHE INDICATED SUPPORT FOR MEASURES TO GIVE NON-JEWS ADVANTAGES AND ELIMINATE JEWS FROM THEIR PRESENT POSITIONS.
