A sharp anti-Semitic attack, charging that Communist-inspired Jews are pressing General Dwight D. Eisenhower’s Presidential campaign, appears in the current issue of “Labor Digest,” published by Norman Zolezzi who, in the past, has solicited financial aid from supporters of Sen. Robert A. Taft.
“Labor Digest” accuses the Anti-Defamation League of “master-minding and taking the lead in the Eisenhower for President drive.” It insists that the B’nai B’rith has been infiltrated by Communists and globalists who have “taken over its subsidiary, the Anti-Defamation League.” It also says that the A.D.L. spends more money each year than both major political parties together spend in a Presidential year.
The paper, which has been conducting a strong campaign against aliens, has been the subject of numerous complaints recently. The local Jewish community relations council is studying possible action against it.
