Rockwell Suggests Use
of Rifles in Fight Against
Minorities; Nazis Busy
FREDERICKSBURG, Va., (JTA)
—_ American Nazi Leader George
Lincoln Rockwell, campaigning for
election as governor of Virginia,
held a rifle in the air on Sept. 16
and told an audience : "All of you
ought to own one of these." He in-
dicated that such weapons could
be used against minority groups.
Rockwell is running for governor
under the banner of the so-called
"White Conservative Party." He
attacked Virginia's two most re-
cent governors for "selling out"
the state and defended the Ku Klux
Klan.
In Montreal, Adrien Arcand,
leader of the fascist National
Unity Party, issued a new book
entitled "Down With Hate." The
book purports to show that "the
only real spreaders of hate are
the Jews, because the movement
you say one word against them,
they brand you as anti-Semite."
Speaking at a press conference,
Arcand said that George Rockwell,
fuehrer of the American Nazi Par-
ty was "just an agent provocateur,
a venal agitator who, to my own
knowledge, has received money
from the Jews to promote trouble
and gain symphathy for their
cause." Arcand was interned by
the Canadian Government from
1940 to 1945 for his pro-fascist ag-
itation.
The threat of anti-Semitism is
still a matter of concern also to
the 450,000 Jews of Argentina, Dr.
Leon Perez, vice president of the
B A L A , representative organiza-
tion of Argentine Jewry, said in a
report to the American Section of
the World Jewish Congress in New
York. The DAIA is an affiliate of
the World Jewish Congress.
Dr. Perez warned that social and
economic problems of Latin Amer'
ica might lead to local explosive
situations which, in turn, would
have their effect on the respective
Jewish communities. He said his
organization was particularly con-
cerned with the future of its youth.
