New York (JTA) — Anti-
Semitism continues at a
disturbingly high level in
Argentina where it is often
used as a political weapon to
attack democratic institu-
tions and the government of
President Raul Alfonsin, ac-
cording to Latin American
Report, published recently by
the Anti-Defamation League
of B'nai B'rith.
Also cited among develop-
ments in the region were a
steady increase in anti-
Semitic incidents in Chile,
where the government had in
the past effectively limited
such activity, and the Peru-
vian Jewish community's
concern over President Alan
Garcia's meeting with Pale-
stine Liberation Organization
chief Yasir Arafat at the Non-
Aligned Nations Conference
in Zimbabwe last September.
Latin American Report is
prepared by Rabbi Morton
Rosenthal, director of ADL's
Latin American Affairs
Department, and Martin
Schwartz, assistant director.
It provides information on
issues and events in Latin
America and the Caribbean
affecting Jewish communities
in the region and the State of
Israel.

Examples of anti-Semitic
manifestations in Argentina
included the following:
The reappearance of the so-
called "Andinia Plan," a claim
by Argentine anti-Semites
that Israel is plotting to turn
the Patagonian region in the
south of Argentina into a
Jewish state.
An article in a rightwing
Peronist newspaper titled,
"This Is How They Dominate
Us," which listed alleged
"Zionist functionaries" of the
Central Bank of Argentina,
including the names, titles
and ages of the "guilty." The
newspaper also threatened to
continue publishing lists of
"Jewish elements that have
bought their way into the cur.
rent Alfonsin regime."
A Buenos Aires demonstra-
tion "Against the Jewish Dic-
tatorship," organized by a
neo-Nazi group.
A doll with the Gestapo
"SS" inscription hanging by
a noose in an army barracks.
The arrest for "an admini-
strative offense" of the chief
legal advisor (who is Jewish)
for the Argentine Border
Patrol after he denounced the
carving of two swastikas in
the walls of the Patrol's
headquarters.

(trrA)=.
leading Jewish organizations
are planning events here in
January and February 1987
to alert public opinion to the
continuing plight of Jews in
the Soviet Union, the dupli-
city of the Kremlin on that
issue and to let Jews in the
USSR know they are not
forgotten.
On January 23, the Union
of Councils for Soviet Jews
(UCSJ) will convene a "Com-
mission of Inquiry" corn-
posed of representatives from
the American academic, judi-
cial and political sectors to
hear testimony from former
refusenik Natan Shcharansky
and other prominent Soviet
Jewish emigres about worsen-
ing conditions of Soviet Jews
in the 20 months since
Mikhail Gorbachev became
the leader of the Soviet
Union.
On February 26, B'nai
B'rith International will
stage a giant rally here in con-
junction with similar rallies
all over the United States and
in 43 other countries at which
the names of some 12,000
Soviet refuseniks will be read
aloud. It will be preceded by
candlelight vigils on college
campuses the night before.
The Student Coalition for
Soviet Jewry, an arm of Hillel
Foundation of Brandeis Uni-
versity, will hold'its fifth an-

nual Washington Lobby for
Soviet Jews here February 26,
the Student Struggle for
Soviet Jewry (SSSJ) an-
nounced. University of
Florida activists will spend
the day lobbying individual
Congressmen to raise aware-
ness and support for the
human rights of Soviet Jews,
the SSSJ said.

Jewish Archives
At University
of Arizona

Thcson, Ariz. (JTA) — The
Jewish ranchers, shopkeepers
and others who helped to set-
tle the Southwestern United
States will be remembered in
the newly formed Jewish His-
torical Archives at the
Southwest Center of the
University of Arizona here.
Director of archives Prof.
Abraham Chanin said that
during his research of the
Southwest, the names of
Jewish settlers "kept popping
up." The archives will consist of
historical documents and
photographs and oral histories.
Chanin, a University of
Arizona journalism professor
who will begin his archivist
job in January, said he'll
commence research in cities
and then examine smaller
communities.
