Gideon Kouts describes Jewish writers and journalists taking part in a booklet by a fascist magazine in France and their reactions after its publication. The column also includes a story about a Lorenzo Lotto painting sold cheaply by nuns and eventually acquired by the Louvre, and a report about a network that drugged and robbed people out for the evening in Paris.
Four Paris columns: the French president’s aspirations for the Nobel Prize; Mary Capella’s struggle after her partner was killed during the seizure of the Iraqi Embassy; a woman’s election to the French Academy and criticism of its membership; and the tax dispute surrounding Christina Onassis. A separate item in the column concerns Daniel Cohn-Bendit’s appointment to a post at a publishing house.
Five items from Paris: the debate over Charlie Chaplin’s Jewishness following a court ruling against a newspaper; Saudi purchasers’ wish to retain a French stake in the factories they acquire; Yves Montand on Woody Allen; the retirement of the Frères Jacques; and Demis Roussos missing out on the role of Bluto in the film “Popeye.”
A critical report on the distribution in France of an antisemitic book that presents conspiratorial claims about the Jewish identity of leaders and Jewish control of the world. The continuation column also contains short items about Ephraim Kishon and the weekly “France,” substantial portions of which are unreadable.
