A conference of district leaders of the Versliniki Union, nationalist and anti-Semitic economic organization, today demanded legislation restricting representation of minority groups in new industrial enterprises to the minorities proportion in the population.

Official representatives greeted the conference, including Finance Vice-Minister Danta, who promised Government support for the Versliniki but warned against revolutionary activity which would provoke disorder.
