Premier Teleki, in his first appearance before Parliament, made it clear today that his Government would in no way depart from the recent policies of its predecessors — dependency on the dictatorships, legislation of anti-Semitic measures and radical agrarian reforms. The anti-Semitic laws formulated by Bela Imredy, who resigned as Premier when he discovered his own ancestry to be part Jewish, will be submitted without change for Parliament’s approval, he said. He denied Hungarian leaders had turned to anti-Semitism under foreign prodding. Ever since the collapse of Bela Kun’s postwar communist regime, he declared, the country has felt the need for settling the Jewish question.
