Jewish religious heads protested today that they had been prevented from addressing King Carol on his visits to Transylvania through the strategy of Ministerial Director Valer Moldovan. On both of King Carol’s visits to Cluj, when he had listened to petitions from other religious representatives, the Jews charged, their delegation had been allotted scattered seats in inconspicuous places, so that they were utterly unable to address the King as a body.
Orthodox Jewish communities, submitting the protest, threaten that if similar treatment is repeated they will interpellate the King.
