It was reliably learned from Bucharest today that 200 persons are affected by the Government’s demand that the Rumanian Telephone Company dismiss Jewish employes.
Discharge of the Jews is already going on systematically. Among the employes to be dismissed are some who have served the company at least ten years. No new Jewish employes have been taken on since the beginning of last year.
The company, which holds the telephone monopoly in Rumania, was founded by the International Telegraph and Telephone Co. of New York and is managed by an American staff especially delegated to Europe.
