Summary/Abstract: The tragic events for the Romanian nation at the end of the summer of 1940 also affected Luduş locality. As a border town, Luduş witnessed population transfers from both sides of the new border. In Luduș and neighbouring communes, colonists arrived from different parts of NW of Transylvania. Shortly after, general Ion Antonescu implemented a plan to supply the army with clothing made with the help of the Village Household Industry, in order to help the poor population from the villages. Raw materials from own sources or from the army were used. For these items, domestic producers were remunerated in accordance with a decree. Becoming a border locality, Luduș benefited from specific institutions. Under these conditions a post of border guards was set up. The 2nd Grăniceri-Guard and the 4th Grăniceri-Guard Luduș were installed, which were part of the 7th Grăniceri-Guard Alba-Iulia Regiment, aimed at overseeing more than 100km of the border.
