The outbreak of hostilities in the Middle East has inspired Nazis and their Arab supporters here to renewed activity with swastikas found smeared on a number of Jewish houses in Mexico City. The houses were also plastered with such slogans as “Long Live Nasser.”

In other anti-Semitic incidents in recent days, the Agudath Achim Synagogue and the building of the Zionist Youth Organization were both attacked by unknown vandals who broke windows in the buildings.
