(Communication to the Editor.)
Sir:
My attention has been called to a telegram from Bucharest published in your issue of the 1st of February, in which your correspondent, quoting a Roumanian paper, states that the Christian Students League has charged the Roumanian Government with having supported the Oradea Mare demonstration against Jews and Hungarians.
As such information is likely to create a false impression in the mind of the public opinion in this country, I have cabled it to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, who has authorized me to give it the most emphatic denial.
I would like to add that any reasonable person would easily realize that no Government could have encouraged such misdeeds which, in addition to moral inconveniences has burdened the national budget with many millions of lei.
Yours very truly George Cretziano, Minister of Roumania Legatiunea Regala a Romaniei, Washington, D. C., February 4, 1928.
