The notorious Swedish anti-Semite Einar Aaberg has now extended his activities to Swedish youth, it was learned today. Pupils at various secondary schools have received anti-Semitic leaflets printed in this country and signed by Aaberg, on behalf of the anti-Jewish Fighting Union of Sweden, which he founded and heads.
The Swedish authorities have long been plagued by Aaberg’s activities. He has been accused of printing false material about Jews in English and sending it to Britain, the United States and South Africa, and in September 1948 a Swedish court convicted and fined him for “spreading false information likely to mislead the public.”
