Prime Minister Maniu received Dr. William Filderman, president of the Union of Roumanian Jews of Bucharest, in an audience yesterday.
Although no official statement was issued as to the subject of discussion, it was said that the outstanding problems in Roumanian Jewish life today were considered, presumably, the new anti-Semitic excesses in certain parts of the country, as well as the failure of the government branches to fulfil the promises made by the Maniu party to the Jewish population during the election campaign. The reconstitution of the dissolved Kehillah boards was also taken up.
It was declared that the Prime Minister promised to take personal charge of the matters discussed.
