A delegation from DALA, central representative body of Argentine Jewry, today expressed the concern of the Jewish community over the importation of anti-Semitic elements among Hungarian refugees accepted by this country.
The delegation, in representations to the government, pointed out that notorious fascists and anti-Semites were on the memberships of committees organized here in behalf of the refugees. It also reported that aboard the S. S. Santa Fe, a vessel which recently brought refugee immigrants here, an openly anti-Semitic incident had occurred.
