Cuban students and workers jioned in a wellorganized demonstration near th German consulate here, protesting against Hitlerite doings in Germany.
The demonstrations succeede in tearing th Nazi Swastika banner down from the consulate building, but were dispersed by well-arme police when they attempted to hold a street meeting.
Local Nazis have found the general state of unrest in Cuba very favorable to their propaganda purposes,which they are carrying on as fully as possible, declaring that National Socialism will save all th world, therefore Cuba as well.
To facilitate th spread of ##ch propaganda, interested parties here have begun the publication of a Havana Spectator in Spanish. The name of th magazine is apparently modeled after that of the chief Nazi newspaper in Germany, the Voelkischer Beobachter. The Havana Spectator is published and edited by a well-know German, a Nazi named J. E. Runken, Runken attempts to prove that Hitterism is th way that Cuban liberation shoul take and, in the latest number of th Spectator, openly advocates the swastika a the future Cuban emblem of liberation
NAZI MAGAZINE SUBSIDIZED
Runken is known to be a non-professonal in the journalistic field and to have little money. All indications are that he is being Gubsidized by the Nazi embassy here and the Cuban Nazi movement.
The back cover of the November Spectator carries a black swastika with teh caption: “This i the flag of the German National Socialist Labor party.” The December back cover carries a swastika consisting of five alternating blue an white stripes captioned: “Will this some day be the flag of the Cuban National Socialist Labor Party?”
The December issue also makes a plea forcirculation. The appeal is written in English and reads, in part:
“El Espectador Habanero (The Havana Spectator), circulates throughout th Spanish-speaking world…and beyond!
“The editorial policy of this Monthly Magazine is thoroughly conservative (but open-minded and up-to-date, nevertheless) quite in spite of its “revolutionary” trappings and its radical Cubanism.”
