The summer colony at Coney Island, reinforced by large delegations from all parts of New York City, will take part in an anti-Nazi rally tomorrow evening at the Casa D’Amor, West Third street and Mermaid avenue.

An intensified program of activities to offset the menace of Hitlerism particularly in the light of recent developments in Austria, will be planned on this occasion.

Other speakers will be Dr. Samuel Margoshes, vice-president of the American Jewish Congress; Dr. Joseph Tenenbaum, chairman of the Boycott Committee, Mrs. Charles H. Thurow, acting chairman of the Brooklyn Division of the Women’s Association and Louis Segal, executive secretary of the Jewish National Workers Alliance. Hon. Nathan D.
