HINT TO RUMANIA.
BRITAIN'S REMINDER. Uneasiness Over Treatment of Jews. FREEDOM OF MINORITIES. United Press Association.—Copyright. (Received 11 a.m.) LONDON, January 5. Owing to uneasiness regarding Jews in Rumania, the British Government has instructed Sir Reginald Hoare, British Minister in Bucharest, to take the earliest opportunity of reminding the Rumanian Government in the friendliest fashion of the interest Britain has always taken in minorities and of the treaty signed in Paris in 1919, of which Rumania is a signatory, guaranteeing racial, religious and linguistic minorities political rights and religious freedom.
The Bucharest correspondent of the "Daily Telegraph" says: Every day sees more violent anti-Semitic measures adopted in Rumania.
The Minister of Public Works has decreed that, "as it has been established that many Jews employ young Rumanian girls as servants with the intention of using them in the white slave traffic, no Jew may employ nonJewish servants under 40 years of age."
Dozens more Jewish newspapers in the provinces have been suppressed.
