A request that the United States Government bar from its mails inflammatory anti-Semitic materials was made on the American Ambassador here, Willard L. Beaulac, by a delegation representing DAIA, the central organization of Argentine Jewry.
The delegation gave Mr. Beaulac photostatic copies of anti-Semitic letters and pamphlets received in this country, and in other Latin American regions, all of which had originated in a “Ku Klux Klan Center” at Waco, Tex. The delegation also visited the Swedish Minister, Reeinar Aberg, asking him to intervene with the government at Oslo, since some of the K. K. K. material has been sent to this country from Sweden.
(In Santiago de Chile, five youths described by the authorities as coming from socially prominent families, have been arrested on charges of membership in the International Ku Klux Klan and engaging in terrorist acts against a synagogue.)
