Police began a search today for the gunmen who fired a machine gun burst from a fast-moving car at 2 a. m. hitting the building of the Yiddische Zeitung, largest Jewish daily newspaper in Latin America. The bullets perforated a metal curtain and several windows. Because of the time of the attack, no one was injured. The building has a permanent guard of a single policeman.
Three city workers who were repairing a sidewalk near the building threw themselves to the ground when they heard the gunfire. The gunman also machinegunned a clothing shop belonging to a Jewish owner but without casualties. In Bahia Blanca, anti-Semites smeared the Baron Hirsch monument.
