Jew-baiters have launched a new “sport,” paint-slinging, and are actively playing at it in the city’s Jewish quarter. invading the section nightly, paint brigades equipped with ladders, decorate overhead signs with anti-Semitic slogans and caricatures. The painters were most active last night, marking several Jewish shops with the legend, “the Owner is at Dachau.” Complaints to the police are futile.
