For the first time in more than a decade, tie Sociedad Hebraica Argentina, the largest Jewish club in South America, was attacked by stone-throwing juvenile nationalists Monday night.
Charting "Death to the Jews," and "Down with Blejer." the 30 hoodlums smashed club windows on the first two floors. The second chant referred to David Blejer, Argentine Labor Minister, who is a Jew. Members of this club charged into the street and captured about 10 of the hooligans and pulled them back into the club where they called police. The prisoners were turned over to the authorities.
A second attempt by the juveniles to attack the club was frustrated by the club members. Major Argentina-newspapers gave wide:, publicity to the incident which was one of a series of disorders in Buenos Aires and other Argentine cities following widespread labor unrest.
