Dissolution or radical transformation of “Jewish settlements” in Italy on the ground they were harmful to Fascism and too sympathetic with Great Britain was demanded today by the Turin newspaper, La Stampa, the United Press reported from Rome.

The Italian Jews are using their religious freedom to create Jewish “racism” through “subtle means, thereby endeavoring to estrange themselves into a national bloc,” declared a writer using the pen name of Victor.

This “racism,” he wrote, was flourishing particularly in young men’s and young women’s institutions, which were supposed to have a religious character only.
