Jewish organizations that have complained to police against repeated acts of vandalism at the Tomb of the Jewish Martyr, in this city, were assured by the prefect of police today that he has assigned police personnel to provide special protection for the shrine. Workmen were on the job today, removing large ink stains which vandals smeared all over the tomb last week.
Jeune Nation, a “right radical” group, is believed to have been responsible for the desecration of the shrine as well as for the recent smashing of windows in a Paris synagogue and other anti-Semitic acts. The police yesterday confiscated a special issue of the anti-democratic and anti-Semitic magazine, “Jeune Nation.” The official reason for the seizure was that the issue contained material injurious to the Chief of State. The issue had lauded a large number of notorious anti-Semites as the “intellectual forerunners” of the Jeune Nation movement.
