The case of Charles W. LaCroix, seventy-two-year old Jerseyite accused of pasting anti-Semitic stickers on stores in this city, will come before the First Criminal Court here tomorrow.
LaCroix, who lives at 308 Shippen street, North Bergen, was arrested Tuesday morning at 2 a. m. in Jersey City for pasting the stickers on store windows and doors.
Slogans on some of the stickers, which were about one by four inches in size, follow:
“American Christians–Patronize Christian Doctors, Dentists and Lawyers–You would not Patronize a Rabbi.”
“Christians–Demand Christian Actors on Stage and Screen–Protest Against Jewish Radio Propaganda.”
“Christians–Protest Against Jewish Judges–Demand Your Own Kind.”
“Christians–If the Christians were such a Small Minority as the Jew, we would be All Stoned to Death.”
LaCroix was listed in the Amerikas Deutsche Post on August 1, 1933, as a special propaganda agent for the Nazi government in New Jersey. He has made several anti-Catholic and anti-Semitic speeches in and around New Jersey.
