The Association of Slovakian Jews went on record as being opposed to the claims of Hungary to Slovakia, in a telegram transmitted to Lord Rothmere. Lord Rothmere recently caused wide interest by his series of articles in which he advocated the return of the provinces which were separated from Hungary after the world war.

In their statement the Association of Slovakian Jews points to the sufferings of the Jewish population in Hungary. The Association also declares that in matters of defense of the country the Slovakian Jews are in full solidarity with the Slovaks.
