Soviet Attack on
Activity in Africa

LONDON, (JTA)—A strong
attack on Israel and its Prime
Minister David Ben-Gurion-
the strongest published in the
Soviet press for a long time
—was made over the Soviet ra-
dio which quoted at great
length an editorial which ap-
peared in the Izvestia, Official
organ of the Moscow Govern-
ment edited by Al e k s e i
Adzhubel, son-in-law of Premier
Nikita Khrushchev.
The editorial said that Israel
"is fulfilling the role of Trojan
horse for NATO," the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization. It
accused Israel of "working be-
hind the United States im-
perialists," and asserted that
Israel was setting up military
training missions in Ghana,

day will explode in a new
Hitlerian era," has been re-
garded with concern by Jewish
groups and other democratic
groups and- by police auth-
orities.
This attitude, it was ex-
plained, does not stem from
the status of the news agency,
which is considered unimpor-
tant, but because it seemed to
fit in within a general picture
of intensified neo-fascist ag-
gressiveness and symptoms of
Nazi-inspired propaganda in
Italy.
Fears have been expressed
that such propaganda, unle.;s
checked, might be intensified
to reach a peak at the start
of the trial in March in Israel
of Adolf Eichmann, who di-
rected the extermination of . the
6,000,000 European Jews, - not
only in Italy but in other coun-
tries as well.

Don't judge a man's strength
by the number of promises he
breaks.

WILN:O. --KOSHER

FLORENCE, Italy, (JTA)-
The political office of the
Florence Police Headquarters
officially expressed the opinion
that the author of an anti-
Semitic article distributed by
the "Orbis" news agency, which
has its headquarters here, was
guilty of "apology for crime
and incitement to hatred."
The political office gave this
view after a request for action
by the Union of Italian Jewish
Communities on the article,
written by Luigi Mosciano, pur-
porting to be a survey of the
status of the remnant of Jews
in West Germany, with ' a
Munich dateline. Mosciano at-
tacked the West German Jews
in explicit Nazi terms.
The political office said also
that "any further decision on
the issue is up to the magistra-
ture of Florence." The article,
in which Mosciano wrote that
est German Jews were
ey-sick" and "c r eating
