The Interparliamentary Union, composed of members of all parliaments in Europe, to which a protest against the anti-Jewish excesses in Roumania was directed, can not intervene on behalf of the Roumanian Jews.
This is the substance of a message received by the Club of Jewish Deputies from the headquarters of the Union, acknowledging the receipt of a protest telegram from the Club. The Union cannot intervene in matters of a political nature which can cause international complications. However, the Union asked the Club to submit details of the Roumanian excesses.
In reply to this, the Club of Jewish Deputies declared that its protest telegram was intended merely as a notification. The facts will be submitted by other Jewish organizations.
