Diego Rivera, noted painter in whose home Leon Trotsky is a guest, denounced anti-Semitism this week in an article published in the Mexican daily "Novedades" under the title, "Anti-Semitism Betrays Mexico."

The article was said to be the strongest denunciation of anti-Semitism thus far voiced by a Mexican intellectual.
