Wagner of New York late Wednesday denied a permit to Nazi leader George Lincoln Rockwell, self-styled "fuehrer" of his "American Nazi Party", who applied for the right to hold a rally in New York's Union Square on the Fourth of July. Mayor Wagner branded Rockwell as a Hitlerite and refused to grant him the right to fulminate anti-Semitic slogans, as he has been doing in Washington for many months. This action followed a court appearance by Rockwell, and scores of protests against the announced plans by New York City Commis- sioner of Parks Newbold Morris to grant the permit. The Jewish War Veterans was among the groups that registered protests against the projected "desecration" of Independence Day by Rockwell's Nazi group. Park Commissioner Morris had stated orig- Mayor Wagner inally that the Constitutional right of free speech would force him to grant the permit unless Police • Commis- sioner Stephen Kennedy foresaw the projected rally as constituting a riot danger. There still remains the possibility of court action against Mayor Wagner's decision, the New York Chapter of the Civil Liberties Union having indicated its adherence to the Constitutional principle of free speech. On the other hand, Michael J. Casin, commander of the New York Council of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, issued a stp' - emient urging "all patriotic ex-GIs to assemble in Union Square in uniform at the time of the rally, if the permit is granted." He said: "It would be pitiful to see the Nazi swastika desecrate the original meeting place of the Union Army." Scores of Protests Against Permit for Rockwell Direct JTA Teletype Wires to The Jewish News NEW YORK — Nazi leader George Lincoln. Rockwell was put under police protection Wednesday morning when he appeared in New York County Supreme Court in connection with injunction pro- ceedings to block his scheduled rally in New York's Union Square on July 4. An angry, excited crowd, shouting "kill the Nazi," surrounded Rockwell in the rotunda of the courthouse. Court guards summoned police and the Nazi was taken, jostled but unharmed, to a private room to await opening of the hearing. Rockwell testified before Supreme Court Justice Vincent Lupiano and freely admitted he had urged gas chambers for Jews. Abe Stark, president of New York City Council; the Jewish Labor Committee, the Jewish War Veterans and some ten other organizations filed petitions as Friends of the Court, asking to be associated with the application for the injunction. Protests mounted against the scheduled rally by the American Nazi Party. Demands were made upon Mayor Wagner and Commis- sioner of Parks Newbold Morris to forbid the projected rally. Among those who protested, and coupled their objections with requests that the rally be forbidden, were Rep. Frank. J. Becker, New York Republican, who telegraphed Wagner from Washington; Rabbi Joachim Prinz, president of the American Jewish Congress; L.

Takes Sympathetic Position Toward Israel By SAUL CARSON JTA Correspondent at the UN Direct JTA Teletype Wires to The Jewish News UNITED NATIONS — Israel Wednesday con- ceded to the Security Council here that "the persons who took Eichmann from Argentina to Israel broke the laws of Argentina," but again officially apolo- gized to Argentina for this violation of its sovereignty. Israel insisted, however, that the real question is "a violation of the spirit of, man and of hu- manity's conception of justice" in the fact that for 15 years Eichmann had not been brought to trial. These were among the arguments put before the Council by Golda Meir as she addressed the 11- member body after Israel had been accused of vio- lating Argentina's sovereignty and endangering the world's peace and security in a 40-minute speech to the Council by one of its members, Mario Amadeo, permanent representative of Argentina. But while the UN Security Council debate was in progress, there remained the possibility that a compromise will be reached in the form of Eich- mann's return to the Argentinian Embassy in Israel, Argentina then going through the motions of "ex- traditing" Eichmann to Israel by returning him for trial to Israeli authorities. complete support for Israel in the Security Council session on Argentina's complaint over the seizure of Eichmann. Henry Cabot Lodge, chief of the U.S. delegation to the UN, stated the U.S. position to be that, once the Security Council accepted the Argentine resolu- ion on Eichmann, as amended, it would also take note of the address Wednesday of Mrs. Golda Meir, including Israel's apology to the Argentine govern- ment, and consider that with this step taken "ade- quate reparations" would have been made. Israel and Argentina could then resume normal relations and "this matter will be closed," Lodge said.

The Polish commission will include Prof. Kaminsky, chair- man of the Warsaw government's Committee for the Punishment of Nazi War Criminals, and Prof. Marks, head of the Jewish Historical Institute at Warsaw. Poland has indicated it would like to send a judge to sit on the bench with the Israeli jurists when Eichmann is tried. Poland argued that Eichmann had committed most of his crimes on Polish territory.
