Jewish youth of this city held a silent meeting today in front of the Geneva synagogue, to protest against the continued smearing of the city’s monument to Jewish martyrs. The monument has been desecrated three times in the last month. Over 50 persons, including many non-Jews, and priests, and members of the wartime resistance movement from France, attended the rally.
