Traian Braileanu was appointed minister for being recognized, after the death of Nae Ionescu, as the true ideologue of the Legionary Movement. Problems faced by the Minister in the first stage came in the need to occupy the posts of professors, teachers, and priests, to ensure the possibility for further studies on different levels for the Romanians in the provinces ceded. A second line a work of Trajan Braileanu was be the Romanization of education which required legislative and administrative measures to compensate those who moral suffered in 1938-1940, followed by their professional reintegration.
