Heads HUC Library 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."
