The restoration by the Argentine Government of legal status to Jewish organizations which had this status cancelled two months ago by the regime of Gen. Ramirez, is reported from Buenos Aires by the correspondent of the New York Herald Tribune.
The correspondent also reports that the Jewish schools in the provinces of Entre Rios and Santa Fe, which had been closed by order of the local governors, have been reopened. In the province of Entre Rice, where anti-Semitism has been most rampant, a number of Jewish municipal and provincial employees who had been discharged on false charges of being Communists were recently reinstated, the correspondent adds.
The report points out that while the general Jewish situation in Argentina is described as “satisfactory” by Jewish leaders, the danger of future anti-Semitic action still persists because of the number of admitted anti-Semites holding official government positions. The pro-Nazi press, he says, also continue to instill hatred against Jews among the Argentine people.
