Warner, cector of Minorities” Congress o%m“:fiww at Geneva. Br the Assnciated Press. . { GENEVA, Switzerland. August 26. -The Catalonian delegates to the, European Minority Congress which epened here has charged Spain| with suppressing their civic rights. So long as justice, the rights of man | and a minimum of liberty are not granted thelr people. Catalonia will| continue a source of disorder and dan- 2 ger to international peace, the dele-} gates declare. 13 Dr. Masotons Anglassell, chief of the Catalonia group. in an address be- fore the congress. which seeks to pro- tect the rixhts of minorities, asserted that dangerous problems of national- itv” now flourish by the dozen in Y.urope. 1Ile said that only a few minority problems existed at the begin- ning of the World War and that these problems partially caused the war. Notwithstanding the manner in which the Catalonians feel they have been treated, Dr. Anglassell declared that the people had decided not to resort to violence to redress them and thus to change the map of Europe, hut to join the Geneva congress in an effort to seek peaceful solution through juridical formulae. tle said Catalonia always would keep her language. literature and in- dividuality, and asserted that Cata- jonia had her own Parliament before England had her Magna Charta. “Injustice cau never stifle our de- mands. Tt will only engender catas- trophe and war, he concluded. ‘The Minorities Congress has been given added importance from the fact that no fewer than 31 minority deputies from Furopean Parliaments and several senators are present. There are two German deputies, Sternbach and Tienzl, from the Italian Tyrol; four German deputies ‘rom Poland, and German parliamentarians from Jugoslavia, Rumania and Czecho- slovakia. President Wilfan, a Slovene mem- ber of the Italian Parliament, in his opening address spoke of the neces- sity of international collaboration by minority groups to safeguard their civic, economic and political equalities. te emphasized the need of a com- men fight to maintain their racial|p schools and religions in order that their national traits might be pre- #erved forever.
