Marisia XXX-XXXI Partidul National -Täränesc §i alegerile ora§ene§ti din Ardeal §i Banat (1930). Constituirea noilor Consilii Locale Marin POP The National Peasants Party and the city elections from Ardeal and Banat (1930) Abstract Following the law regarding the administrative organization of the country, that was enacted in the summer of 1929, on 5th February 1930 there were county elections, and during 9th February -16th march 1930 there were commune and city elections. At the commune elections of 15th and 16th March 1930, when there were elected the city councils in all over the country, the National Peasants Party acquired an absolute victory. However, due to the economic crisis of the time, there can be noticed a left wing groups rising, especially the communists. For instance, at the elections for the Municipal Council of Timi§oara, the National Peasant Government got 24 commissions, whereas the communists received 12. To sum up, it can be stated that the county and city elections were a definite victory of the N.P.P., in many places trustified with ethnical minorities. They also took place in order and discipline. In this respect it is worth mentioning the case of Sälaj County, where the prefect Mr. Alexandru Aciu, who was aware of the disciplined spirit of the inhabitants, did not ask for the support of the army and Gendarmerie in order to watch the electoral process, with a significant economy in the local budget. This и/as a first in the Romanian political life, because many times the elections took place under the threat of the bayonets. In baza légii privind organizarea administrativa a tärii, adoptatä de Parlamentül Romäniei ín vara anului 1929, pe data de 5 februarie 1930 au avut loc alegeri la nivelul judetelor, iar ín perioada 9 februarie-16 martié 1930 la cél al comunelor. Conducerea Ministerului de Interne s-а íntrunit §i a dat о serie de instructiuni pentru organizarea noilor alegeri comunale §i judetene. Pentru municipii §i judete, convocarea electoratului se fäcea de cätre Ministerul de Interne, iar pentru celelalte ora§e §i comune de cätre prefectul judetului, cu cél putin 30 de zile ínaintea termenului fixát pentru alegeri ín Monitorul Oficial, respectiv ín Gazeta Oficialá a judetului. Sectiile de votare urmau sä fie alese, dupä cum era §i normal, in functie de numärul de alegätori. Pentru fiecare 3.000 de alegätori о sectie. Publicarea sectiilor §i repartizarea alegätorilor trebuiau publicate cu 15 zile inainte de alegeri. Propunerea candidaturilor se fäcea cu 8 zile inainte.

Numirea medicului Aurel Dobrescu in fruntea Directoratului Ardealului, cu sediul la Cluj, se pare cä a creat un scandal chiar in interiorul partidului care se afla la guvernare. Organizatia judeteaná a P.N.T. din Cluj dorea ca functia sä fie ocupatä de frunta§ul national-täränist Emil Hatieganu. El erau sustinut §i de tineretul chemarist, in frunte cu Viorel V.
