Postal authorities started an investigation today into mail received by a Coral Gables Jewish businessman containing violent anti-Jewish propaganda.
Samuel Blair said he received an envelope with a Miami postmark in which a dollar sign had been substituted for the first letter of his first name, followed by a hammer and sickle and a Star of David.
