New Romania Contrasted With Old by British M. P. In 1907, 11,000 peasants were shot down at one onset by artil lery that is the classical ex ample of artillery against unarmed peasants —and a certain august personage complained that his ar tillery proved somewhat ineffi cient. 1 disrussed this with the Bratianu’s, both uncle and ne phew, Mr. Dino and Mr. Bebe. Mr. Romniceanu, their Cabinet Minister, explained that it was impossible to blame this kind of thing on the Liberal Party of to day, that their leader was not in the Government, he was not even In the country in 1907 when these peasants were shot down. This may sound strange but Mr. Bra tianu senior is 82, and in 1907 had been connected with the Govern ment for some years. Two of his brothers were in the Government responsible for this massacre, how ever. It was put in this way: “How can the people blame this on our Liberal Party of today, because both brothers are now dead and, therefore, are no longer members of the party?” From that time on the use of troops against industrial workers has been almost common. The outstanding occasion was in 1935 when Dr. Maniu’s Party was in power. It was explained to me in Dr. Maniu's presence, and he accepted the explanation, that the mistake of a stupid policeman led to the shooting down of 480 work ing men at Grivitza. the main railway works in Bucharest. That could not be put against Dr. Ma niu because he-- was not in the Government, although he was Pre sident of the Party, and the Home Secretary, at the time was no longer in the Party today. The Home Secretary of the time was Mr. Vaida Voivod and it is true that he is no longer active in the National Peasant Party. But his name has been kept in the pub lic eye. He was used by American oil interests for the nominal pur chase of their oil shares so that throughout the war they could go on collecting from the Germans the profits on the sale of Ro manian oil to Germany. This man no longer associated with Dr. Ma niu’s party, as a result of which no one should dream of holding the incidents of 1933 against the Opposition. But it has not finished yet. In 1945, on 18th February, in the Palace Square, six work men were shot down by the army. Mr. Radescu was the Prime Mi nister. Immediately after the un fortunate affair a British aero plane and pilot rescued Mr. Ra descu, and he now adds one to the ranks of displaced persons. The Home Secretary, in Febru ary, 1945. was Mr. Penescu. I in vite the House to remember what was said by the Minister of State on 9th October in describing to the House the incident alleged to have occurred at Piteşti. In this House my right hon. Friend ex pressed regret at the killing of a member of the National Peasant Party which had occurred at the village of Piteşti and gave the im pression that possibly the Govern ment and the police, may have been implicated in the killing. What are the facts? The report delivered to this House is of course the report of the Opposision. As far as I can find out it has never been checked by any reference to the Romanian Government, to which our Minister is accredited. The gentleman who barely es caped with his life was this Mr. Penescu, the Home Secretary at the time of the killing In Palace Square, on 18th February. 1945. My impression from canvassing this matter In industrial areas In Romania and in some of the vil lages, was that he is more hated than any of the Opposition, main ly because he was responsible for the most recent of these public kil lings. The names of Timisoara and Petroshan. where similar In cidents took place are the Peter loo Tolpuddle of Romanian work ing class history. It is impossible to suppose that the Romanian DOROHOI (Continuare din pag. 1-a < mant puţin.

In doing so we place our foreign diplomatic re presentatives in an intolerable po sition.

Romfinul American Maniu Frauds Exposed In Letter to New York Times EDITOR’S NOTE We re print below a letter sent by Mr. Leo Wolfson, an American of Ro manian Jewish descent, who was for 30 years president of the Uni ted Roumanian Jews of America, to the editor of the New York Times. In it. Mr. Wolfson exposes the whole fraud of Maniu and Rr&tianu. with regard to Che elec tions they conducted when they were in power. The writer states cold facts, and they speak for themselves. The full text follows: Dear Sir: The other day, and several times prior thereto, you published pro tests of Dr. Maniu. the leader of the National Peasants Party, of Mr. Br&tianu. the leader of the National Liberal Party, and others, about the forthcoming parliamen tary elections in Roumania. Dr. Maniu and his associates insist upon the “restoration” of pre-war democracy in Roumania. For many years I have been interested in the affairs of my native country, and I am familiar with the “ore-war" democratic practices which have prevailed ther£ In the interest of truth, al low me to give you some facts and figures so that you and the pub lic be fully Informed. Roumania never had a demo cratic government, nor a demo cratically elected parliament, ex cept in name and pretence. No Roumanian government has ever resigned because of a vote of non confldence of the parliament. Not withstanding that Roumania has one of the best constitutions of any European country, the King, at will, dismissed every govern ment. whenever he chose, and dis solved the parliament at the same time. Whenever this happened— and as you will see. it happened very often— the King called upon .a leader of one of the political par ties to form anew government and to carry on elections for anew parliament. Invariably, the new government won a majority or more in the new parliament. These elections became famous for their frauds, violence and chicaneries. In 1926, the government was dismissed by the King. Qeneral Averescu, the leader of the no minal People’s Party, was asked by the King to organize a cabinet and to carry on elections for a new parliament. The results were as usual. General Averescu re ceived 52% of the vote; the Na tional-Peasant Party. 27%. and the ancient Liberal Party. 7%. Under a special vicious law to manipulate the elections, which has been abolished by the pre sent government, the governing party was entitled to an addition al 50% of seats in the new par liament. Thus. Oeneral Averescu. with his nominal party, emerged with 292 members in the parlia ment and the other two principal parties were allocated 69 seats and 16 seats, respectively. In 1927, the King dismissed General Averescu, dissolved the parliament and the leader of the National Liberal Party was en trusted with the formation of the government and the election of a new parliament. In this new par liament, the National Liberal par ty obtained 62% of the vote as against 7% in the previous par liament, with 318 seats as against 17. The National Peasant Party obtained 22% of the vote as against 27%. with 54 seats against 69; and the People’s Party, which received 52% only about a year ago. received 2% of the votes and did not have a single seat in the 1927 elected parliament. In 1928, history repeated Itself, the King again dismissed the gov ernment, and entrusted Dr. Julius Maniu, leader of the National Peasants Party, to organise the new government and to carry on the election. The results were again as anticipated. The National Peasants Party received 78% of the votes with 348 seats as against 22% and 54 seats in the preced ing parliament; the National Li beral Party obtained 6.5% and 13 seats as against 62% and 318 seats in the last parliament, and the Peoples Party, a negligible per centage of votes. The Government of the Nation al Peasants Party carried on for about 3 years and was dismissed in 1931, and Professor Nicholas lorga, the leader of the nominal National Party, organized the new government and election. He, too. emerged victoriously in the elec tions with 48% of the vote and 289 seats; the National Peasants Party received 15% of the vote with 30 seats as against 78% and 348 seats in the last parliament, and the National Liberal Party maintined its political strength of 6% and had 12 seats in the new parliament. This comedy repeated itself In 1932. when the National Peasants Party was again called to power and to carry on elections. True to tradition and practices, the party obtained in the new parliament, which it elected. 274 seats as against 30 seats which it had in the parliament elected only a year ago. and the National Liberal French-Rom. Committee Appeals to Mrs, Roosevelt Mr. Justin Godart, chairman of the French- Romanian Com mittee to aid the victims of the drought in Romania and former Cabinet Minister, addressed an appeal to Mrs. Eleanor Roose velt, to mobilize American public opinion to render whatever help possible to the destitute population of Romania. The appeal follows: Madam: The war-devastated population of Roumania has been af flicted with anew calamity—drought. Indeed, two years in succession a terrible drought, such as the country had not experienced for many years, has completely destroyed the harvest of Eastern Wallachia and the entire region of Moldavia (sixteen provinces in all). Hundreds of thousands of inhabi tants, chiefly peasants, find themselves deprived of food and are obliged to sacrifice a large part of their cattle, in default of fodder. The Roumanian Government has mobilized all its avail able resources and allotted considerable funds for the needs of the population. In addition, a Committee has been formed in Roumania which groups all men and women of good will who wish to serve the cause of national solidarity to the best of their moral and material ability. The country’s resources are insufficient, however, to meet requirements. A number of products of primary necessity are lacking, particularly foodstuffs for children, clothing and medi cines. The approach of winter —which is extremely severe in Roumania—makes it imperative to act rapidly, so that relief may be distributed before the consequences of hardships and malnutrition become more acutely felt. Accordingly, Roumanians abroad, supported by several outstanding Frenchmen and headed by Mr. Justin Godart. former Cabinet-Minister, President of the Entre-Aide Fran caise, have united their efforts and constituted in France the Comite Franco-Roumain de Secours aux Victimes de la Seche resse en Roumanie (Franco-Roumanian Committee for the re lief of victims of drought in Roumania). The purpose of this Committee is to assist the stricken population of Roumania by appealing to the generosity of national or international or ganizations and private individuals who may wish to take part in their humanitarian work. This Franco-Roumanian Committee, the first of its kind to be constituted outside of Roumania, pending the formation of a similar Committee in the United States, takes the liberty of addressing (a fervent appeal to you for moral and material aid, any gifts, whether in the form of foodstuffs, clothing, medi cines, or cash, would be of inestimable value to the destitute population of Roumania, to whom they would be scrupulously and equitably distributed by the Roumanian Committee for the Relief of Refugees Stricken by Drought. We would indeed be deeply grateful for any suggestions or contributions you might care to address to the President of the Comite Franco-Roumain de Secours aux Victimes de la Secheresse en Roumanie, Mr. Justin Godart, 9, Quai Voltaire, Paris, France, who will acknowledge the re<?eipt of all letters or parcels which may be sent to him, and will be responsible for their transmission to Roumania.

In 1933, the National Liberal Party formed the new Oovernment and from 28 seats in the parlia ment, elected only a year ago, it obtained 300 seats in the new par liament. The succeeding governments operated in the same manner. Every government carried a ma jority In the elections to the par liament, which was elected during its regime and under its aegis, ex cept that in 1940, through some bungling. Mr. Tatarescu’s govern ment did not obtain the usual ma jority. With such a record, U is pre posterous and an imposition for Mr. Maniu, Mr. Britianu and their associates, to speak of democracy and democratic principles. It is rank hypocrisy. Dr. Maniu, Mr. Br&tianu and their followers in this country and abroad have indeed a case and ample reasons to complain, pro test and to bemoan their fate. They should honestly state that the present government and its continuance in power is a THRE AT to their vested interests; a DANGER to their control of Rou mania and her rich resources, and a MENACE to their right to con tinue as “Masters” over the fate and destiny of the Roumanian people. There are, indeed, many people both here and in Europe, who share their views and who will extend to them, their sym pathy and assistance. They should not rest their case on the principles of Democracy and Democratic elections; prin ciples which they never practiced, the meaning of which they never wanted to understand and the spi rit of which they have continu ously violated. LEO WOLFSON \n\n Pagina 4 Al Iho ugh elections in Romania have already taken place, we may expect more slander about alleged "fraud” in the electoral lists in Remania, being handed to foreign correspondents by the Ma n i u- Brfttianu clique, as an alibi of their failure in winning the elec tions. We have just received a copy of a speech delivered in the House of Commons on October 22, 1946 by Mr. J. F. F. Platts-Mills. La bor M. P. for Finsbury, recently returned from a visit to Romania. Mr. Platts-Mills, exposes the whole hoax about the frauds, us ing Maniu and Br&tianu as di rect witnesses for this fraud. , This is the first instalment of the extracts from Mr. Platts-Mills speech. Others will follow in suc ceeding issues: May 1 turn to Romania, a coun try which has recently been the most abused and a country whose condition at the moment Is most interesting. May I first refer to the pre-election situation? It fits with what I have just said. Who are we backing? Of course, the Opposition. The correspondent of "The Times" last week, in an in teresting and rather confused ar ticle said that the Opposition re presents only the outworn past. I have had the privilege during this month of meeting the lead ers of all three of the Opposition groups, and not only the leaders but their main supporters, and the editors of their national pa pers. I also met some of the edi tors of their provincial papers. These gentlemen treated me with extraordinary frankness, frankness that did them great credit. There was no mistake on anybody's part, and no misunderstanding as to my position. Indeed, their news papers made great play of it the moment I arrived in the country. The two outstanding leaders Mr. Maniu, of the Peasant Party, and Mr. Br&tianu, of the Liberal Party, both made it clear that they have no electoral programme. They said that quite frankly. They are there to oppose. All three of the groups, the dissident Socialists included, say that they are really in Romania what the British Labour Party is here. Bearing in mind their absence of programme, and bearing in mind that each is opposed to the other, the claims sacm a little inconsistent. Hon. Members: Just like it. Mr. Pickthorn (Cambridge U niversity): Exactly like it. Mr. Platts-Mills: The claim is obviously based on the fact that each one of them has support from the British Government in directly. Mr. Bercovitch, the edi tor of the Liberal paper put it in these words: “Our policy is to complain, to complain against the Government day by day. You can rest assured that Mr. Maniu or Mr. Br&tianu will probably have a letter to the British Minister pach day." The routine is well worked out. A letter goes to the Prime Minister. Mr. Groza, every day and a copy goes to the Bri tish Minister, who is a rather un willing recepient. The system works quite well, except that on one occasion the original went to the Brlsish Minister and the copy was sent to Dr. Groza. These gentlemen complained in a formal manner to me of want of freedom to get on with their «lectorat preparations. However, no such want of freedom could be observed. One met them as one met any other person, by ringing up, by going to call, by their com ing to one’s hotel, or meeting them in a cafe in public. They have their papers, national and pro vincial. They hold their meetings publicly and openly; indeed, they had a meeting in Bucharest when I was there. The National Peasant Party, meeting to discuss. I think, whether to put forward an elec tion programme or not, went on for four hours 100 yards from where I was staying with not a Russian soldier or machine gun in sight, (laughter) I can assure hon. Gentlemen that the Opposition keep their machine guns carefully concealed. . , There is one complaint which can be substantiated. They com plained. and rightly, that in some sections of the country they can not hold their meetings in safety. If that were the situation in this country, it might well be a ground for complaint against the Govern ment or the people. But this is Romania, and I ask hon. Members to remember what are the reasons for the bitterness and the hatred of the people in many neighbor hoods against the Opposition par ties.

Amendamentele acestea sunt in terpretate de presa mare, ca mă suri îndrptate contra Comunişti lor. Si amendamentul de care sa servit presa în deosebi declară: Amendamentele “Consiliile locale si de stat să şi mărginească activităţile lor cât si declaraţiile publice la chestiuni de ordin local şi de stat şi la pro gramul si ţinuta generală, votat de organizaţia naţională a lui CIO. Consiliile să nu ia nici o acţiune si să nu facă nici o declaraţie pub lică în contrazicere cu programul lui CIO. Ele să nu trimită dele gaţi şi să nu facă contribuţii la organizaţii naţionale nerecunoscu te de CIO.” Consiliile acestea locale si de stat, însă. au tot dreptul de a face ISTORIA UNEI FIGURI "ISTORICE” IVLIU MANIU de TUDOR SAVIN (Continuare din numărul trecut) (8) Amintind că Boilă care înainte de venirea naţional-ţfirăniştilor la pu tere era “un mic avocat de provincie cu poliţe de câteva mii de lei protes tate” ajunsese la un moment dat să dispună ■ de peste 19 milioane lei depuşi la “Banca Albina,” plus aproa pe 76 milioane lei la “Institutul co mercial de credit,” ziarul “Viitorul” se întreabă: de unde aceşti bani? De unde aceste 95 milioane lei? Boilă, la comisiunea pentru con trolul averii pretinsese că banii îi fuseseră împrumutaţi, prin Banca “Svoboda” din Viena, pentru exploa tarea minelor de aur dela Baia de Arieş ale lui luliu Maniu, pe care Boilă Ie administra. “Viitorul” arată insă că “producţia minei d-lui luliu Maniu a fost de 420 tone pirită în valoare totală de 421.000 lei.” Cum.se poate ca pentru o mină care are o producţie anuală de 421.- 000 lei, să dea cineva aproape 100 recomandaţii la CIO. oricând. în să prin rânduirea lui CIO. Dacă unul din aceste consilii sau con ducători sunt în dubiu despre ceva se pot consulta si apoi primi sfa turile cuvenite dela oficiul naţio nal. Un alt amendament stipulează că consiliile trebue să se confor meze constituţiei lui CIO si orice abatere dela constituţie va fi su pusă disciplinei. Am citat mai mult poate decât a fost necesar, pentru a arăta că presa mare. ca deobicel. minte si caută să influenţeze convenţia, să creeze destrămare în rândurile muncitorilor. Să vedem, ce înseamnă în rea litate cele de mai sus? Natural că forţele anticomunis te se pot servi de orice, nu numai de un astfel de amendament sau mai bine zis lege. căci a fost a probat in unanimitate. Insă. în realitate, aceste amendamente pot constitui o “chezăşie a unităţii sindicale.” Sfatul Lui Stoica Chivu Stoica, vice- preşedintele Confederaţiei Generale a Muncii din România, într’un articol, pub licat în ziarul nostru din 9 Noem brie. cu ocazia aniversării a doua dela reorganizarea mişcării sindi cale în România, discută proble ma unităţii sindicale în lumina situaţiei sindicale din trecut si a celei de azi. “Lupta internă.'’ spune Stoica, “a consumat o uriaşe cantitate de forţe, care îndreptată împotriva duşmanului comun, ar fl ferit muncitorimea de multe din neno rocirile ce s’au abătut asupra ei.” Unitatea sindicală, insă. bazată pe două principii cardinale si cu rigurozitate aplicate, a pus capăt acestei lupte. 1. “Lupta hotărâtoare pentru a Gafencu Exposed “Scânteia" publishes a long article with a three column head ing in huge block type: “Gafencu. Cretzeanu. Tlllea & C 0.,” in which Gafencu is accused of "selling his country.” “Scânteia” also carries two pic tures, one featuring Gafencu and Ribbentrop. supposedly carrying on an intimate discussion in the latter’s private office in Berlin, and the other, also in Berlin, showing Ribbentrop and Gafencu reviewing Nazi troops, shortly be fore the latter were to invade Ru mania. milioane lei? se întreabă pe bună dreptate “Viitorul.” Concluzia la care se ajunge este că afacerea cu mina lui Maniu era un simplu pretext. Boilâ primise banii pentru altceva... Banca “Svoboda” nu lucra decât ca intermediară a uzine lor “Skoda”... Că Romulus Boilă se ocupa cu afa ceri de armament reese limpede din documentele publicate în “Univers ul" din 3 şi 6 Septembrie 1933. Primul document este o scrisoare din 12 Martie 1929 a unui oarecare Franz Rehner din Viena, adresată lui Romulus Boilă. Prin această scrisoa re, Rehner oferea spre vânzare can tităţi importante de arme fi echipa ment militar, pe care urma să le fur nizeze în asociaţie cu fostul general austriac Arthur Reutter, “omul de încredere al guvernului austriac şi ungar. în chestiuni de armament mi litar.” Al doilea document este o scrisoare din 16 Martie 1929, adresată genera lului Reutter de către Rehner, care pararea intereselor clasei munci toreşti.*’ 2. Pot fi membri “toţi muncito rii, fără deosebire de naţionalita te, religie, se* sau concepţie po litică si care adoptă şi se con formă Statutelor de faţă” cu ex cepţia celor cari militează ut or ganizaţiile fasciste sau reacţiona re.” Ce înseamnă asta? Tot Stoica ne spune, că sindi catul nu poate forţa pe niciun membru “să adopte faţă de parti dul său politic o anume poziţie, dar poate fi obligat ca faţă de linia mişcării sindicale să albe o poziţie: aceea care duce neîntâr ziat la înfăptuirea ei.” In felul acesta, conclude Stoica, ”s’a înlăturat posibilitatea de a se introduce, prin elemente Înfeu date anumitor partide, linia lor politică în sindicate.” Dacă nu s’ar fi luat aceste mă suri. susţine Stoica, conducător de frunte al Partidului Comunist Ro mân si în acelaş timp conducător de frunte al mişcării sindicale ro mâneşti “s’ar fi ajuns ca şi în tre cut” şi unitatea sindicală ar fi sau pe nisip sau cu tot sfărâmată. Amendamentele adoptate de Co mitetul Executiv al lui CIO. care vor fi susţinute de convenţie, îşi au. credem noi. aceiaşi menire, dacă ne bazăm pe situaţia ce ex istă în anumite sindicate. Si noi nu suntem deloc de aviz cu toată propaganda meschină a presei mari. hrănită de forţele desbină toare din sânul lui CIO. Philip Murray, preşedintele lui CIO si al sindicatului din indus tria de fier-oţel. la convenţia tre cută. chiar în anul curent, refe rindu-se la campania anticomu nistă, a spus: “A noastră este o organizaţie democratică. E condusă de mem brii ei. Noi nu întrebăm pe ni meni originea lui naţională, cu loarea lui, religia lui sau credin ţele lui politice. Pentru noi e des tul că-i un muncitor în industria de fier-oţel si că are convingere trade-unionistâ.” Noi suntem convinşi că majori tatea conducătorilor şi delegaţi lor la această convenţie aderează la aceste principii şi nu vor per mite ca mişcarea sindicală ame ricană să fie înghiţită de lupte fratricide şi de stăpânii din Wall Street. Orice abatere dela principiul de mai sus nu poate să aducă decât dezastru muncitorime! şi poporu lui. se afla la Bucureşti. Ce scria Rehner asociatului său? “Merge mai repede decât mi-aş fi putut închipui în optimisimul cel mai mare... Am întocmit, după o convor bire cu înaltul meu protector, un nou elaborat, pe care l-a supus şi dis cutat cu unchiul său, ministrul pre şedinte... Am mâine, cu un colonel de stat major, delegat de ministrul preşedinte, o convorbire amănunţită, după care voi fl primit de and. ministru preşedinte... Socotesc succesul sigur pe toată linia...” In Martie 1929 “ministru-preşedin te” era luliu Maniu. lar “înaltul pro tector” al lui Rehner nu era decât Romulus Boilă. nepotul “ministrului* preşedinte”. lată dar dovada definitivă că Ro mulus Boilă, nepotul lui Maniu, era, încă din 1929 “specialist" în afaceri de armament. Aşa cum a tratat cu Rehner, a tratat apoi cu Seletzki, în calitate de nepot şi om de afaceri al lui luliu Maniu. (Continuare în numărul viitor) Sâmbăta, 23 Noembrie 1946
