Sven Salicath. Danish Nazi party leader, was sentenced to a week in jail yesterday for offenses against Danish laws protecting racial minorities.
Salicath’s journal frequently publishes anti-Jewish comments and has lauded Hitler’s “inspired and heroic leadership of the great Germanic struggle for Europe’s liberation from the Jews.”
The Nazi refused, at this trial, to give an estimate of the membership of his party, which he previously had estimated at about 1,800 persons.
