Combatting anti-Semitism in Roumania as a part of the program of the National Peasant Party was urged by the Minister of Education, Costachescu, in an address delivered at Jassp before a meeting of party leaders.
“Do not forget first of all to combat anti-Semitism,” the Minister of Education urged the leaders. “You should make it your duty to tell the peasants that anti-Semitism as a movement is a political folly, outside of the fact that it is poisonous.”
