Two Jews were shot and wounded here during the last two days by Moslem terrorists in a continuation of a campaign to force participation in a Moroccan nationalist campaign boycotting French products.
One Jew, a fruit peddlar, was shot in the lung and is in a critical condition. The second, a pharmacist, was hit in the shoulder and is now in a hospital. He apparently disregarded boycott warnings delivered several weeks ago.
Meanwhile, it was announced that the police have captured members of a savage gang of terrorists who killed a Jew last year in the nearby town of Berrechid only because he was a Jew. The gang, which committed many atrocities in the past year, was tracked down right in Berrechid.
