Czech Envoy Denies
Jewish Ill Treatment
WASHINGTON (JTA) — The
Czechoslovak Ambassador, V. S.
Hurban, in a letter appearing in
the Washington Post, replies to
charges of anti-Semitic outbreaks
in Slovakia.
In a statement to the Jewish
Telegraphic Agency, amplifying
this explanation of recent events
in Slovakia, the embassy recites
the following in commenting on
the reported disturbances.
All racial laws discriminating
among the people in Czechoslo-
vakia were abrogated in Slovakia
in March when the Czech Gov-
ernment arrived from Palestine.
The Jews who returned from
concentration camps received spe-
cial supplementary rations, which
occasioned rumors among the
people that the Jews were receiv-
ing special privileges.
In Slovakia there had been a
few cases of discrimination. These
were immediately dealt with and
the culprits punished.
The Czech Government is see-
ing to it that food and supplies
brought in by UNRRA are dis-
tributed justly and the distribu•
tion is being controlled.
UNRRA has been asked to
send a representative f r o in
Prague to Slovakia to ascertain
and report on the actual state of
affairs.
In his Washington Post letter,
Hurban asserts that the anti-Sem-
itism in Slovakia was acknowledg-
ed "frankly and honestly" by
Page Five
President Benes, but that it was
not based on racial grounds.
"The Jews in Slovakia during the
Hungarian regime were the privi-
leged class who served the Mag-
yar oppressors," Hurban says. "In
Bohemia and Moravia the Jews
living in pure Czech communities
were nationally mostly Czechs.
In Slovakia the Jews living with
the Slovaks were nationally Mag-
yars even after the establishment
of Czechoslovak independence. It
cannot be forgotten so easily by
the population."
