Leader of Berlin Jewry Warns USA, Britain on Hate Exports D U S S ELDORF, (JTA) A warning to the United States and Britain to halt the sending of Nazi literature from other countries into West Germany was issued here Monday by Heinz Galinski, chairman of the Jewish community in West Ber lin, where anti Jewish posters were found tacked on the walls of the city’s Jewish Community Center last week. In a lead arti cle in the AUgemeine Wochenzel- tung dei Juden, German-langu age weekly organ of the West German Jewish community. Mr. Galinski warned that a revival of anti Jewish activity not only threatens Jews, but also poses a danger to world peace. Mr Galinski referred parti cularly to the Nazi groups which have developed in Britain, where a spokesman for the British Na tional Socialist movement boast ed that his group had sent more than 10,000 pamphlets to West German business firms and an nounced that "further shipments are being prepared by the United States headquarters of the inter national Nazi movement.” The posters appearing in West Berlin last week bore pictures of Hitler and such English slogans as “Despite Jewish lies, Hitler was right,” and "Hitler is dead, but National Socialism lives on.” Similar posters, all printed in Britain, have been distributed recently in Frankfurt, Munich and other German cities. Mr Galinski warned that "Western politicians must real ize in time that effective action must be taken against the new threat.” While West Germany has already asked Britain halt the sending of le**' noted, the British Na man had belittled sue by pointing out that K was legal in Britain.

XXXVIII ATLANTA, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1963 UN Assembly Agenda Ineludes March on Washington Hears Two Rabbis IVo Items Touching Israel As Thousands of Jews Take Part WASHINGTON (JTA) UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (JTA)—Israel is affected directly in two items on the agenda for the forthcoming session of the General Assembly, to convene here Sept. 17, according to the Assembly’s provisional agenda circulated to delegations here today. A number of items touch Israeli interests less directly, while other issues up for debate on the heavy, 77-point agenda will be of concern to Jews gen erally, throughout the world. The matters of direct concern to Israel deal with (a) the United Nations Emergency Force, stationed on Israel’s Gaza Strip border and along the Gull of Akaba; and (b) the United Na tions Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees, the large UN- apparatus charged with aid ing the Arab refugees, most of whom are in camps in Gaza, Leb anon, Jordan and Syria. The items will deal with reports from the heads of these two UN or ganizations, with plans for the next fiscal year, and with financ ing of UNEF and UNRWA. One item on the agenda deals with a proposal by four South America countries for denuclear ization. However, both the leading nuclear powers, the United States and the Soviet Union, are cool to the South American plan. Several of the agenda items af fect various aspects of the overall problem of human rights, thus being of interest to Jews all over the world. A committee of the Assembly is to continue lengthy debates, begun in 1954, on two proposed international covenants on human rights. One of these covenants deals with economic, social and cultural rights; the other civil and political rights. There were hopes here today that these debates might at last be concluded this year, leading to possible adoption of the two pro posed covenants. Aditionally, the Assembly will have before it a number of res olutions previously adopted by the Economic and Social Council in the field of human rights. Among the ECOSOC proposals is a draft declaration calling for the elimination of all forms of religi ous intolerance; another banning all forms of racial discrimination; and one that would outlaw all forms of racial prejudice and na tional and religious intolerance. One agenda item will deal witli the work of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, an official whose work embraces aid to all refugees except the Arab refugees on Israel’s borders. There are very few Jews left now under the High Commissioner's jurisdiction. He does try to aid refugees from Algeria, but the Jewish refugees from Algeria, most of whom fled to France, are not affected by his program. JERUSALEM (JTA)—The Is rael Government is about to send its reply to the Communist Chi nese letter received here four weeks ago, it was learned here. The letter advocated nuclear dis armament for the Middle East. Although details of Israel's reply have not been released, it is understood that Israel will re ject the Chinese proposal on the grounds that Israel favors global disarmament in general, and complete disarmament in the Middle East in particular. JERUSALEM (JTA)—The Is raeli Cabinet decided at its week ly meeting here to intensify ef forts to thwart the work of Ger man scientists in the employ of Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser. This decision came after a report from the Ministerial Committee for Security which said, “the Government finds it necessary to continue with greater energy its activity against the work of German scientists in Egypt.” At the same time, the —turn to page 4 UNITED NATIONS — Russia Tuesday vetoed Western resolu tion condemning the “wanton murder” of two Israeli farmers by Syrians two weeks ago. The 101st Soviet veto cast in the Security Council was the third time that Moscow has blocked an Arab-opposed reso- 1 lit ion. Morocco and Syria hailed the action of the Soviets. Israel’s Michael S. Comay told the Council that regardless of the outcome, he regrets Syria as “morally condemned.” He said no veto would “wipe out the damning facts” reported by UN investigations of the killing of the farmers near the Almagor settlement. The Soviet move was deplored also by Charles W. Yost of the United States Predictions had been made freely that the Moroccan amend ments would not he accepted. The United States and Britain stand fast by their original draft. The Soviet Union indicated clearly here last weekend that it would veto the draft co sponsored by the U.S.A. and Britain. Since seven or eight of the 11 Council members are ex extraordinary mass turnout of more than 200,000 persons, gath ered here August 28 for the cause of full rights for American Negroes, heard appeals by two rabbis to the American people to support that struggle as a matter of basic moral right. The tremendous throng exhib ited a discipline that caused pol ice officials to marvel. There were only two arrests, one of them an adherent of the Amer ican Nazi party, who was seized when he defied police orders against making a speech at the Washington Monument to foment disorder. An unexpectedly large number of rabbis, Jewish leaders and or ganizational representatives from throughout the country appeared for the March for Jobs and Free dom. What struck many observ ers, however, was the very large sprinkling throughout Negro groups of Jewish young men and women. Many of the Jewish young people carried placards bearing sayings from the Old Testament in both Hebrew and English lettering. While the vastness of the as- pected to favor the Western draft, its adoption would have the moral force of an implied rebuke to Syria, and an endorse ment of the Israel position on this issue. The Council session for con sideration of this latest Syrian Israeli dispute has been under way, with many delays, since August 24, in spite of the fact that Israel had labeled its call for a Security Council meeting as “urgent.” The delays have been due mainly to filibustering by the Soviet Union in response not only to Morocco -the only Arab state currently on the Council but also to concerted pressures employed by all the members of the Arab bloc here. Iraq joined tIn* pressure efforts formally this weekend, by send mg a letter to the president of the Security Council, calling in effect for condemnation of Is rael instead of censure of Syria However, both the United States and Britain have insisted that the implied rebuke to Syria must go through. Their firmness on this point has been called very encouraging by many di plomatic friends of Israel here who have pointed out that this semblage made exact estimates impossible, some observers said they believed that between 10,000 and 15,000 Jews took part in the march. Some of the youths sang Israeli folk songs and were join ed by non-Jewish marchers. Jewish leaders interviewed at the Lincoln Memorial described the event and the Jewish par ticipation as successful beyond expectation. It was apparent that many Jewish participants came as individuals, while most of the organizational representa t i v e s consisted of lay leaders, Jewish organizational processionals and rabbis. Rabbi Joachim Prtnx, president of the American Jewish Congress, told the marchers that It was not “merely sympathy and compas sion for the Negroes of America” that had motivated Jews to sup port the Negro fight for equality but even more “a sense of Iden tification and of solidarity born of our own painful historic ex perience.” Rabbi Prtnx, one of the ten chairmen of the March, also told the gathering that when he was living under the Nasi reg ime as a rabbi In Germany, he learned that, in the face of danger is the first occasion in eight or nine years that the Washington and London administrations showed themselves willing to censure an Arab state. Tuesday’s meeting of the Se curity Council had a new presi dent. Jacinto Castel Borja, of the Philippine Islands. He took his seat as head of the Council in accordance with the tradition al, rotating sytem under which a different member heads the Council each month. During the debate of the current Israeli- Syrian issue until now, the Council president has been Si- vert A. Nielsen, of Norway. JERUSALEM, (JTA) — Both Israel and Jordan were censured last weekend by the Israel- Jordan Mixed Armistice Com mission for last week’s shootings along the armistice lines here in this city. The United Nations chairman of the commision cast his de cisive vote in support of both the Israel and Jordan resolu tions, each of which condemned the other for violating the truce. Although the chairman said it was impossible to ascertain which side fired first, he voted in favor of the Israel draft which said Jordanian positions had opened fire at 12:15 a.m. Sunday. The chairman called upon both sides to meet “at the earliest opportunity” to consider ways of maintaining peace and quiet in Jerusalem. to freedom, “the moat urgent, the most disgraceful problem Is si lence. A gTeat people had become a nation of silent onlookers. They remained silent In the face of hatred, brutality and murder.” He warned that the American people “must not become a nation of onlooker?. It must not be silent, not merely black America, but all America. It must speak up and act, from the President down to the humblest of us, and not for the sake of the Negro but for the sake of America.” Rabbi Urt Miller, president of the Synagogue Council of Amer ica, delivered a prayer in which he called on the assemblage to make sure It was not voicing empty words “nor even sincere Ideals projected Into some Mes sianic future, but actualities ex pressed tn our society in osnerete and tangible fana ■*" KsbM Miller voiced hope 3*1 the de mons traUsa would “senrifkw *11 Americans and —peris lly those in positions of power and authority to this concept of equality.” The rabbi prayed that there be understanding, that “when we de prive our fellowman of bread and dignity, we negate the Tselem Elokim — the Image of God In man — and delay the fulfillment of His Kingdom.” Police arrested Karl Allen, deputy commander of the Amer ican Nazi Party, when he sought to make a speech on the Wash ington Monument grounds design ed to agitate against the march. The Nazi was taken into cus tody after police had warned the Nazis that they could neither dis play insignia nor placards, nor speak In a manner that might foment violence. They were screened off by more than 100 police officers and military pol icemen from the Civil Rights marchers. After the arrest of Al len, the Rockwell group — esti mated at 100—left, threatening to continue demonstrations later. Briefly... LEXINGTON, Mass.
