Constitutional Reforms
The Sudan

On the pretext that Jews in the Moldavian capital of Jussy, three miles from the Russian frontier, bad signalled to Russian parachu- Usta and fired on German army columns, the prosecution nascried that Marshal Ion Antonescu, the pro-Nazi Premler, ordered Jossy authorities to shoot 500 Jews.
