The Mexican National anti-war and anti-Fascist Congress, now in session here, adopted a strongly worded resolution utterly condemning the Nazi regime in Germany and its atrocities.
The opening of the congress Friday night was marred by the appearance of a group of twenty anti-Semitic Golden Shirts, who attempted to disrupt the meeting. The intruders were quickly ejected by ushers.
Over 1,500 delegates are attending the congress, including representatives of labor, peasant and student organizations from every section of Mexico.
