12 U.S. Nazis
on Trial for
Incitement
NEW YORK (JTA) — Eight
members of the National Renais-
sance party, a neo-Nazi group,
were indicted by a Bronx County
grand jury on charges of crimi-
nal anarchy, inciting to riot and
violation of a State law against
possession of unregistered
weapons.
They were arrested in July
charged with sparking illegal ac-
tivities at the site of a diner in
The Bronx where pro and anti-
integrationist pickets clashed re-
peatedly. Seven of the eight were
arraigned before Judge Samuel
Silverman and pleaded not guil-
ty. The eighth, who signed a
waiver of immunity and testified
before the grand jury will be
arraigned later.
Among the indicted was James
A. Madole, leader of the anti-
Semitic group. He and all but
two of the others were held - in
$5,000 bail, bond being fixed at
$2,590 for one of the men. The
men face up to 10 years' im-
prisonment if convicted on the
anarchy count.

PITTSBURGH (JTA) — Four
admitted members of the Amer-
ican Nazi Party were convicted
on charges of distributing hate
literature and two went to jail
when they refused to pay $10
fines.
David France, 23, and Lyn
Giesy, 29, paid the fines under
a 1945 city ordinance which bans
literature or signs exposing ra-
cial or religious groups to hat-
red. John Patier, 25, and Roy
Frankhauser, 24, received the
jail terms.
Jewish Organizations to Continue Efforts for Vatican Understanding
GENEVA (JTA) — Delegates
to the World Conference of
Jewish Organizations, who con-
vened their semi-annual meet-
ing here, decided unanimously
to continue COJO efforts in full
conformity with a memorandum
delivered to the Vatican several
months ago. The memorandum
was believed to be concerned
with the issue of Catholic-Jewish
relations as a possible subject
on the agenda of the Ecumeni-
cal Council, which is reconven-
ing next month in Rome.
With Label A. Katz, president
of Bnai Brith, presiding, the
meeting opened with a review
of the world Jewish situation by
Dr. Nahum Goldmann, Dr. Ger-
hart Riegner of the World Jew-
ish Congress, and Dr. A. Ehr-
lich of the International Council
of Bnai Brith, then reviewed
the work of COJO in Rome in
preparation for resumption of
the Ecumenical Council. They
analyzed prospects for the future

the Jews."
Sen. Kenneth B. Keating and
Rep. Seymour Halpern, New
York Republicans who co-spon-
sor the Keating-Halpern amend-
ment, have charged that Egypt
"lives on our aid while they
channel their own resources into
arms from Russia." The Keating-
Halpern amendment to the For-
eign Aid Bill would sever aid
to Egypt because of such di-
version of its own resources,
contrary to American interests
and world peace.
Even Under Secretary of State
W. Averell Harriman has made
a plea for continued assistance
to Nasser. He advanced the pe-
culiar concept that a build-up
of Egypt contributed to Israel's
security.
Rep. Halpern and Sen. Keat-
ing made clear that they will
fight Nasser's American advo-
cates.
WASHINGTON — The State
Department is lobbying so vig-
orously for increased American
assistance to Egypt that De-
partment officials have in-
correctly portrayed President
Nasser as supporting interna-
tional disarmament and assum-
ing a more peaceful stand on
Israel. The Department has at-
tributed policies to the Egyptian
dictator that differ entirely from
what Nasser has stated publicly.
Anxious to justify the pro-Nas-
ser trend in American foreign
policy, Nasser's apologists in the
State Department have gone out
on a limb.
The truth is that Nasser, on
Aug. 11, made known in Alex-
andria to a military audience
that Egypt rejected disarma-
ment because of war prepara-
tions against Israel. "As far as
we here in Egypt are con-
cerned," he said, "disarmament
cannot be attained while the
rights of the Palestinians are
lost and• usurped."
On Warpath Against Israel

COJO instructed them to re-

continuation of these activities
in Rome.
The delegates noted with
"distress and astonishment"
the acquittal in Austria of
Franz Murer, former Gestapo
official, on charges of murder-
ing Jews in the Nazi-occupied
Vilna ghetto. Noting that the
prosecution in Graz had filed
notice of appeal, the COJO
delegates urged Austrian auth-
orities to act to end manifesta-
tions of "a surprising Nazi
mentality in Austria."
GENEVA (JTA) — The pro-
visional World Council on Jew-
ish Education decided here to
proceed with the creation of a
Jewish educational clearing
house in Jerusalem for the as-
sembly and dissemination of
educational information and to
begin preparations for opening
next year four such clearing
houses in Europe and elsewhere.
The decisions were among a
number of steps taken during
the meeting of the presidium of
the provisional council, in ac-
cordance with earlier resolu-
tions, adopted in New York last
March. The presidium members
also decided to hold a meeting
of the provisional council in
Brussels, March 11-12, 1964 to
adopt a program for 1964-66. A
second World Conference on
Jewish Education will be held
in 1966.
The presidium requested
participating organizations
and communities to contribute
toward a 1964 budget of at
least $100,000. Various Jewish
organizations have indicated
readiness to contribute such
funds.
,The presidium members, tak-
ing note of the shortage of Jew-
ish teachers, agreed that this
problem should be given prior-
ity in the work of the global
educational body. The members
decided to complete, by the end
of October, selection of the first
45 members of the provisional
council, so that it could nomin-
ate 15 additional members to
balance the composition of the
council in regatd to educators
and lay leaders, as we as in
terms of various Jewish educa-
tional approaches. The p r e -
sidium also said it would set up
an advisory group - of educators
to advise the educational coun-
cil and subsequently the per-
manent council on policy
programming.
Members of the presidium are
Dr. Nahum Goldmann, Label A.
Katz, Rabbi Joseph H. Lookstein,
Philip Lown and Dr. V. V.
Modiano.
