Police in Natal are investigating the report of batches of anti Semitic pamphlets from George Rockwell’s American Nazi Party in the U.S. A. Consignment of the pamphlets were addressed from the U.S. to the offices of the civic Publicity Associations in Durban and Pietermaritzburg which, not having ordered them, and knowing nothing about them, but shocked by their vicious character, immediately turned them over to the police.
The pamphlets attack Jews and Communists in the cruel Nazi manner, near Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy, widow of the late President Kennedy, glorify Rockwell, and claim Hitler was “a gift from Providence.”
