Summary[edit]

Description
English: Official notice, posted by A. Hanciu, the Mayor Paşcani, Romania. Issued shortly after Romania entered the war against the Soviet Union, it announces an antisemitic curfew and warns that Jewish hostages would be shot in the event of behind-the-lines "sabotage" or "terrorism", including acts attributable to non-Jews.
The text makes reference to "communist" agitation, and, unusually, to "communist Legionaries". The epithet is apparently oxymoronic: "Legionaries" were the Iron Guard, a fascist and antisemitic movement which had rebelled against the traditionalist far right, and was therefore repressed by the Ion Antonescu government. The poster possibly references a conspiracy theory, according to which some Legionaries were pro-Soviet, differentiating between them and the loyalist ("Codrenist") wing of the Iron Guard.
Here, Hanciu cites specific orders from the fascist hierarchy: Ion Antonescu and Interior Minister Mihai Antonescu.
The text reads:

''Pe baza ordinului Domnului GENERAL ANTONESCU Conducătorul Statului şi al Onor. Ministerului de Interne No. 4599/941, Comunicat de Prefectura Jud. Baia No. 434/941 aducem la cunoştinţa generală că nici un evreu femee sau barbat nu are voe să circule pe străzi între orele 18 până la 7 dimineaţa şi nici să se găsească în locuinţele lor alte persoane, în afară de membrii familiei.
Deasemenea facem cunoscut că în conf. cu ordinele mai sus arătate orice acte de trădare, sabotaj sau terorism din partea evreilor, sau a familiilor cât şi a comuniştilor şi legionarilor comunişti se vor pedepsi cu moartea, primii executaţi fiind ostaticii evrei deţinuţi."

('Acting in accordance with the Order of GENERAL ANTONESCU the Leader of the State and the Respected Ministry of Internal Affairs, No. 4599/941, Communicated by Baia County Prefecture [in Address] No. 434/941 we bring it to public knowledge that no Jew, woman or man, is allowed to circulate the streets between 18 PM and 7 AM and neither are they to host in their dwellings anyone but family members.
Likewise, we make it known that, in accordance with aforementioned orders, any act of betrayal, sabotage or terrorism on the part of Jews, Jewish families or communists and communist Legionaries shall be punished by death, those Jews held in custody as hostages being first in line for the executions.")
