The Roumanian government shows no concern about reestablishing the 26 Jewish families who were the victims of the anti-Semitic disturbances at Balaceana, the Czernowitz press complains, pointing out that the victims remain homeless because their houses were destroyed, their property looted and they have no occupation because normal trade relations with their Christian neighbors do not exist. The papers charge that the government has not fulfilled its promise to grant compensation and has indefinitely postponed the investigation with numerous suspects not even examined nor the complaints of the Jews yet heard.
