Karol Sidor, a Slovak who headed various Nazi organizations during the German occupation of Czechoslovakia, has taken up residence in this city.
Sidor was forced to leave the United States last week because of the storm of protest by Jewish and Slovak organizations in the U.S. His three-month visitor’s visa was not renewed following protests by Rep. Arthur Klein of New York to the Justice and State Departments.
