The Antonesou Government has issued a decree ordering all Jews in Rumania between the ages of 17 to 27 to report to labor camps, the Stockholm newspaper Dagens Nyheter reports today.

The correspondent of the paper points out that since Rumanian labor camps for Jews differ little from concentration camps, the new measure must be taken as an indication of a new anti-Semitic trend.
