The general public in Argentina is "indifferent" to the rise of neo-Nazism in this country, Gregorio Faigon, vice-president of DAIA, central body of organized Argentine Jewry, charged here last night. He voiced that accusation at a meeting conducted here by DAIA and the Buenos Afros Jewish community, honoring the memories of the Jewish heroes who lost their lives during the Warsaw Ghetto uprising.

A message from Argentine Vice-President Carlos H. Perette, lauding the heroism of the Jews who died in the Warsaw Ghetto rebellion, asserted that "those who attempt to revive the aborted experience of Nazism will fail. " Addresses at the mass rally were delivered by Aba Gefen, of the Israeli Embassy here; and Mark Turkow, representing the World Jewish Congress and Jewish immigrants from Poland.
