Dr. Heinrich Rosmarin, vice-president of the Club of Jewish Deputies, yesterday scored the policy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs which fails to disclose the real repercussions abroad of the anti-Jewish excesses in Poland.
Dr. Rosmarin’s criticisms were presented yesterday at a session of the Budget Commission during the discussion of the budget for the Foreign Ministry.
The Jewish representative asserted that the semi-official Polish Telegraphic Agency, Pat, had put a lid of silence on its reports with reference to the impression created abroad by the riots. The anti-Jewish excesses have injured Poland’s repute abroad, despite the denial of this by the National Democratic press, Dr. Rosmarin stated.
Despite the denials and the silence of the Pat, Dr. Rosmarin expressed his conviction that the government is aware of the harmful impression created abroad by the riots.
At the same time, Dr. Rosmarin expressed opposition to the tendency to revise the minority treaties. He also appealed to the government to protect Jewish nationals living in Germany, who suffer from anti-Semitic discrimination.
