NEW YORK, (JTA)—Eight
alleged • neo-Nazis, including
James Madole, 36-year-old self-
styled "fuehrer" of the anti-
Semitic and anti-Negro Na-
tional Renaissance Party, were
held in $5,000 bail each, for
hearings July 23, when they
were arraigned in Bronx Crimi-
nal Court here Monday.
Six, including a Jewish youth,
Ian Lehr, 21, a clerk in the
State Department of Taxation
and Finance, were charged, be-
fore Judge Ambrose Haddock,
with possession of deadly weap-
ons, incitement to riot, and
"anarchy." • Two, including Ma-
dole and Daniel Burros, 26,
were charged with conspiracy.
Three of the men — Edward
Cassidy, Paul Joachim and
John Corrigan — were arrested
in front of a police station, after
they had complained to police
that a truck which they were
driving had had a window
smashed by anti-racism pickets
demonstrating before a ham-
burger stand in The Bronx. Ex-
amining their truck, the police
found what was called "a
deadly arsenal" of guns, am-
munition and other weapons.
Later, the homes of several
others were searched. In the
home of one • of the group,
Peter Kraus, 18, of Queens,
police said they found rifles,
nearly 3,000 rounds of am-
munition, zip guns, a bayonet,
and anti-Semitic literature.
According to police, the men
had conspired, under the leader-
ship of Madole, to exploit the
anti-racist demonstrations by
distributing hate literature and

Mrs. Ben-Guraon
Names New Israeli
Ship at French Dock

ST. NAZAIRE, France (JTA)
—Mrs. Paula Ben-Gurion, wife
of Israel's former Prime Min-
ister, officially named the 23,000-
ton Shalom, Israel's newest and
largest passenger liner in cere-
monies at the Chantiers de
l'Atlantique shipyard where the
vessel was launched last Novem-
ber. This was the first public
ceremony in which Mrs. Ben-
Gurion officiated since her hus-
band was first named Premier of
Israel 15 years ago.
Due to enter the Zim-Israel
Navigation Co. transatlantic serv-
ice next spring, the ship will
accommodate 1,100 passengers
in first and tourist classes. The
vessel's name was chosen by a
special committee composed of
representatives of the Israel
government and the Zim Lines
which sifted suggestions from
thousands of Israelis in all walks
of life, including the late Presi-
dent, Izhak Ben-Zvi.
The $20,000,000 vessel, the
first major passenger ship to be
built at any French port for
foreign owners, will be equipped
throughout with air-conditioned
staterooms and 16 public rooms
including a 200-seat theater and
a night club. The ship will have
a synagogue and an interdenomi-
national chapel and will provide
both kosher food prepared in
strict compliance with Jewish
dietary laws, and non - kosher
food.

A "New" Priority
In the 1950s, Israel had a
surplus of labor. Today she's
a- country of full employment.
Some 40,000 jobs are open for
skilled and semi-skilled workers,
with no takers.

inciting to further rioting. Ma-
dole's group has been involved
in a number of anti-Semitic
demonstrations in the last six
months. The House Committee
on Un-American Activities has
called the National Reniassance
Party "clearly subversive."
Lehr's father told newsmen
that he is a Jew, that his aged
parents were "very devout
Orthodox Jews," and that a
younger son was about to cele-
brate his Bar Mitzvah. Almost
in tears over his elder son's
involvement with neo-Nazis, the
father said: "I'm sorry for Ian.
He's so mixed up. He's got to
take his medicine. But I'm
grieved over the effect on the
family. We are innocent.

Agudat Israel Demands Law
Against Missionary Work

JERUSALEM (JTA) — T h e
Agudat Israel world executive
concluded its weeklong confer-
ence with a resolution calling on
the Israeli government to enact
legislation against the spread of
missionary activities in Israel.
The delegates also voted to
set up a world central organi-
zation for Agudat Israel's com-
plex of independent schools in
Israel which are operated out-
side the government educational
network.
The executive also decided to
convene a world convention of
Agudat Israel next summer in

Jerusalem, and to embark on the
construction of a new settle-
ment, Kiryat Agudat Israel, for
immigrants from the United
States.
In other resolutions adopted
at the final session of the con-
clave, the delegates condemned
Egyptian threats to destroy
Israel, and the refusal by Jor-
dan to permit access to the Wail-
ing Wall. Other resolutions call-
ed for the immediate halt by
Jordan of construction activities
on the ancient Mount of Olives
cemetery, one of Jewry's sacred
shrines.

Charge Israeli Justice Cohen Not
Competent Due to 'Dialogue' Role

JERUSALEM (JTA) — Parlia-
mentary members of the Na-
tional Religious Party asserted
that Supreme Court Justice
Haim Cohen had disqualified
himself from sitting in cases
dealing with matters of person-
al status, because of statements
he made at the AMerican-Israeli
"Dialogue" held in Jerusalem
last month under the auspices
of the American Jewish Con-
gress.
Justice Cohen's comments,
which were sharply critical of
the legal basis for the determi-
nation of Jewishness in Israel,
touched off a public debate, and
were the subject of an unpre-
cedented public rebuke by the
Israel Chief Rabbinate. The issue
was taken up again by a Reli-
gious Party Knesset deputation
at a meeting with Justice Minis-
ter Dov Joseph. The deputies
conveyed to the Justice Minis-
ter the "gravity" with which
they viewed the Justice's com-
ments.
They cited a statement from a
transcript of the Justice's re-
marks, quoting him as telling
participants in the "Dialogue"
that "it is, I think, one of the
bitterest ironies of fate that the
same biological or racist ap-
proach which was propagated by
the Nazis and characterized in
the infamous Nurembereg laws
should, because of an allegedly
sacrosanct Jewish tradition, be-
come the basis for the official
determination or rejection of
Jewishness in the State of
Israel."
Specifically, the Justice add-
ed, "I consider it one of the
most deplorable failures of the
State that it has hitherto been
unable to absorb originally non-
Jewish women and other non-
Jewish or half-Jewish survivors
of Nazi persecution as full-

fledged Jews for all intents and
purposes."
The religious deputies told
Minister Joseph that the state-
ment was a "serious insult to
the nation's honor and tradi-
tion." They noted that rabbini-
cal sources had pointed out that
members of all the categories
cited by Justice Cohen could as-
sume full Jewish status, accord-
ing to both Jewish religious law
and Israeli law, by conversion to
Judaism, a procedure. readily
available in Israel.
