HIAS headquarters here was blasted today by unknown persons. There were no casualties, but damage to the building was estimated at 50,000 pesos.

Jewish leaders charged that the bombing–the second of a Jewish building here in the past two months–was the direct result of intensified anti-Semitic propaganda. Police officials announced that they have launched an investigation. Perpetrators of the Feb. 5 bombing of the Israelite Club here have not yet been apprehended.
