The proposed modification of the numerus clausus law limiting the number of Jewish students at the universities will be taken up today by the Hungarian Educational Department.
Despite a previous decision of the government not to consider the matter urgent and to postpone consideration of the proposed modification, the government has decided to bring the measure before parliament.
As a precautionary measure, the bill will be presented in parliament before the university students return to the capital for the winter semester.”
