A manifesto to the Roumanian nation, urging complete order in the country, was issued by the new Prime Minister, Averescu, upon his assumption of office.
First of all, complete order must be kept. Any attempt at disturbance of the peace will find the government compelled to take all necessary measures to suppress it, the manifesto states.
The manifesto contains no mention concerning the attitude of the new government toward the Jewish population, probably in view of the fact that Octavian Goga, the Minister of the Interior, a member of the anti-Semitic party, in his manifesto promises to secure and to extend the “rights of the national minorities for a free cultural development, the maintenance of their schools, etc.”
