The wave of anti-Semitic incidents in this area continues with none of the culprits apprehended. Last night a poster bearing the slogan “Death to the Jews” was discovered on an overpass of the Frankfurt-Nuremberg autobahn, about 25 miles south of here.

The cemetery has not been desecrated but the student action has been undertaken as a symbol of solidarity with Jews.
