Rabbi Niemirower is Reported As Condemning Jewish Protests Against Roumanian Excesses

(Jewish Telegraphic Agency)

Rabbi Niemirower, whose recent appointment to the Roumanian Senate was disputed by Rabbi Schor, condemned from the floor of the Senate the protests of Jewish communities in various countries against the anti-Jewish excesses in Roumania, a despatch circulated by Reuter’s Agency states.

Rabbi Niemirower is reported to have protested against “the interference of foreign Jews in the affairs of Roumanian Jews” and against “assisting in the circulation of false reports concerning the pogroms in Roumania.”

A cable received from Bucharest by the “Jewish Morning Journal,” New York, states that the Roumanian Senate voted by a large majority to seat Rabbi Niemirower as the representative of the Jewish religion in the Upper Chamber, against the claim of Rabbi Schor, representative of the Orthodox Jewish community in Roumania.
