Jacob Leschinsky, correspondent of The New York Jewish Daily Forward, has been ordered expelled from Latvia for writing anti-Nazi articles, according to The Rigasche Rundschau, a pro-Nazi newspaper.
Leschinsky, who is a Lithuanian citizen and was expelled from Berlin last spring by the Nazis, was ordered to leave the country immediately by the Minister of the Interior, says the Rigasche Rundschau. Subsequently, however, the order was modified postponing the expulsion for a fortnight.
The newspaper emphasizes that the government measure should provide a lesson of warning to other journalists who are writing articles purporting to incite sentiment against Germany.
No word of the reported order of expulsion of its correspondent from Latvia has been receivd by the newspaper, it was declared here yesterday.
