The determination of the French government to prevent anti-Jewish and other disturbances in Algeria was evidenced today in a decree issued by the Home Office imposing two years’ imprisonment for any person convicted of spreading subversive propaganda.
The decree aims chiefly to hamper the activities of the Nazi propagandists among the Arabs in Algeria. It is to this propaganda that the anti-Jewish riots in Setif and Constantine are attributed.
The decree issued today also provides a double penalty for state employes found guilty of conducting subversive propaganda.
Anti-Jewish posters appeared today in Paris for the first time, mounted on walls in various parts of the city. The posters attacking “international Jewish bankers.”
