Einar Aberg, notorious Swedish anti-Semite, was today fined 500 kroner for publishing and distributing anti-Jewish pamphlets. He still faces a trial on charges of having traveled from Sweden to France without a passport.
After he heard the sentence Aberg announced that he will continue his activities. During the court recess before he was sentenced, the anti-Semite handed out his hate propaganda in the anteroom of the court. There is considerable ill feeling toward Aberg because people believe that the material which he mails abroad reflects to the detriment of Sweden.
