Anti-semitic and Anti-american Elements Active in Mexico

Entry of the United States into the war has spurred Nazi and Japanese agents in Mexico to intensified anti-American and anti-Jewish activity, it is reported today.

Anonymous stickers and pamphlets bearing the usual derogatory anti-Semitic Nazi slogans are to be found on walls and sidewalks. The newspaper Hombre Libre attacks “Roosevelt’s Jewish conscience.” Other pro-Fascist papers accuse America of having precipitated the war with Japan and claim that the United States is attempting to drag Mexico into the war.

Meanwhile, 27 Jewish refugee doctors here communicated with President Avila Camacho, offering their services in any capacity “in return for the hospitality that has been shown us.”
