BUCIIAREST.—(J. T. A.—Anti•
Jewish disturbances broke out simul,
taneously in two places in Roumania
this week. In Bacau student dis-
ciples of the anti-Semitic agitator,
Professor Cuza, invaded en masse a
hall in which a Jewish students' dance
was being held and attacked the
guests. The police, according to eye
witnesses' reports received here,
worked in cahoots with the mob, ar-
resting Jews who attempted to fight
back their assailants. Among those
taken into custody are two officials,
Solomon Pascal and Carl Meyerowici.
Deputy Chrism Vianu, liberal, who
witnessed the attack, issued a state-
ment following the disturbance de-
manding the release of the officials,
He confirms that the police favored
the assailants. A thorough investiga-
tion of the attack and drastic punsh-
cent for the offenders is promised by
the Minister of Justice, who hurried
to Barns on receiving reports of the
disturbance.
With the beginning of the new
semester at the University of Klaus-
enberg, the rector, Jacobovicci, has
promised police protection to the
Jewish students who were routed
from the campus. The Minister of
Instruction, in view of the disturb-
ances, has announced he will facili-
tate the issuance of passports to Jew-
ish students who desire to study in
foreign countries.
The government is still timerous
about opening all of the universities
on account of the fear of more
trouble. The League of Non-Parti-
san Students has issued a memoran-
dum appealing to the authorities to
open "the universities before we be-
come gray."

ANTI "INTERNATIONALE"
BROADCASTS PROPAGANDA
PRACUE.—(J. T. A.)—The anti-
Semitic "Internationale" has its head-
quarters in Munich and Leipsic. From
these two points the propaganda of
hate is broadcast to Austria, Czecho-
Slovakia and even in countries where
anti-Semitism has been hitherto un-
known, such as the Scandinavian
lands and Italy.
This fact the J. T. A. is able to
state after an exhaustive investiga-
tion of the sources of the anti-Jewish
propaganda. The fact seems clear,
too, that the agitation attained its
present intensive form following the
visit of Henry Ford sonic years ago
to Karlsbad, where he met the Ger-
man deputy Jung and a group of un-
scrupulous Szecho-Slovakian politic-
ian.
The J. T. A.'s information is to
the effect that the central office of
the Jew baiters is working hand in
hand with the Catholic church in Cen-
trla Europe. The Jesuit order is ap-
parently actively linked with the
movement.
The movement is also honeycombed
with "monarchists." It may be said
that all monarchists nurse as an aim
second only to their desire to put
themselves again in power--the de-
termination to harass Jewry.

ANTI-JEWISH MYTH
Anti-Semitic Charges Exploded
by Wisconsin State
Treasurer.
ASHLAND, Wis.—(J. T. A.)—The
myth that is being circulated about
the country "that the Jews are rap-
idly approaching financial and com-
mercial control of this country," was
exploded by Solomon Levitan, State
Treasurer of Wisconsin, in an ad-
dress before the Northern Council of
Co. Mini Writh meeting here.
"Never was there a greater illu-
sion. The great mass of our people
is composed of hard working folks at
the bottom layer of the struggle for
existence or barely rising above it,
"We have in our country one man
who, through his antagonism towards
the Jews, is trying to raise himself to
the highest political position in the
land, but his agitation is built on
falsehood and it cannot stand. His-
tory has shown that we always have
had some 'Ionian, but always we have
overcome their evil influence. Think
of the countries that have oppressed
the Jews, where are they today? Fate
has visited julice. upon them."
MAX WARBURG WILL SUE
"ARYAN" PAPER FOR LIBEL
BERLIN.(—J. T. A.)—Max War-
burg, the well known Jewish banker
of Hamburg, has announced that he
will file a suit for libel against the
anti-Semitic organ, Der Ilammer.
The paper, which is the organ of
the so-called "Aryan faction,"
charged that Warburg's banking firm
had profited greatly by the war. The
"Hammer" further charges that War-
burg had been very intimately con-
nected with the German military and
official headquarters and had exploit-
ed the knowledge gained from these
sources for his own profit.
Warburg brands both of these
charges as absolute lies, declaring
that his banking firm, far from mak-
ing money through the war, had ac-
tually suffered a considerable loss as
a result of it.
Mr. Warburg is a brother of the
New York banker and social worker,
Felix Warburg, of whom the "Ham-
mer" spoke as the leader of the
"banking world in America." This
assertion, too, Herr Max Warburg
