In the presence of a delegation from the Federation of Jewish Communities in Rumania, the bodies of 126 Jews massacred by Germans and Hungarians in the township of Camar, Transylvania, were exhumed today. The corpse were then re-buried according to the requirements of Jewish ritual.

Two residents of Camar who participated in the massaere of the Jews committed suicide this week in fear of severe punishment as pro-Axis criminals.

George Cuza son of the notorious Rumanian anti-Semitic leader Alexander Cuza, was put on trial here today as a war criminal before a special tribunal. Charged, among other things, with inciting the killing of Jews, he declared to the judges, “I was, I am and I will be an anti-semite.”
