"LETTER BOX" Foe of Nazism Cites One of 'Men With Consience' Editor, The Jewish News: After reading about "Echoes of Nazism" one can't help naming The Jewish News editor among men with conscience. The editor of The Detroit Jewish News brings up numerous cases of Nazi rebirth and asks the ques- tion, how long does one ignore it, advocating to expose the ugly head of bigotism and smash it if possible. His article mentions an inter- view with an American Nazi leader "Colonel" Welch, who re- veals that his "Fuehrer" Rockwell is going to run for governor of Virginia on the independent ticket. The way things are going in the South the white supremists would be ready to elect a Rockwell who would "solve their nigger prob- lem." Under present conditions, chances are that a head of a Nazi party and a Hitler worshiper could be elected for governor of a state in the U. S. Can you imagine the faith of our southern Jews? If this, God forbid, happened, how would some of our Jewish leaders explain their shush-up policy about hiding publicity for American Nazis? To add to the irony, Rockwell's Nazi-comrade in Germany, Bruno Ludtke, stated that Nazism will come first in America (the coun- try that was supposed to have de- feated it). Hard-core Nazi of f i c e r s are being trained in the U.S.A. They are looking forward to riots on the streets of America and an econo- mic depression that will enable the American Nazi Party to seize power. Even if we don't have to take it at face value, we can't afford to ignore the fact that Nazism is on the upsurge. In case the Nazis succeed in grabbing power, they already have a place for the American people.

It's about time the American people should tell them where to go. A more effective movement for legal elimination of this cancerous hate party is needed. The world may stop buying our brand of Democracy unless we get rid of Nazism in this country. H. SHENKM.-‘N ACLU Defends Stand on Clan Editor, The Jewish News: Your commentary entitled "ACLU on Wrong Track on Klan Issue" in the Feb. 26 issue of The Jewish News leaves me with the impression that you have not had an opportunity to read the entire ACLU statement on this important question. You state that "because the ACLU dislikes the House Commit- tee on Un-American Activities does not mean that it is on safe ground when it would give a free hand— without danger from investigators —to a hooded group." In fact, the ACLU statement specifically makes clear that any overt acts, physical harrassment or violence fall within the category of criminal law which the Depart- ment of Justice has the clear au- thority to investigate and prose- cute. The comment further says "if any questions arise as to the de- partment's adequate enforcement of these laws, the House Un-Ameri- can Activities Committee is cer- tainly not the unit to review this issue . . this function is within the specific authority and respon- sibility of the House Judiciary Committee." It is not our dislike for the House Committee on Un-Ameri- can Activities, but rather, our strong support of constitutional rights and liberties for all, that is at the base of our concern with HUAC. In our view, investi- gation by any agency of the gov- ernment of views, ideas and as- sociations (separate and apart from overt acts) is in violation of the clear prohibitions of the First Amendment with respect to freedom of speech, press and assembly. The history of the gross abuse of power by HUAC is too well known to need review here. We are not persuaded that an exten- sion of the committee's illegal in- vestigations and activities to such hate groups as the Klan, the Min- utemen, etc., makes more palatable its violations of the rights of per- sons called before the committee or its invasion into the protected areas of speech, press and associ- ation, Sincerely yours, ERNEST MAZEY Executive Director ACLU of Michigan * * * `Ex-Detroiter' Protests School Board Action Editor, The Jewish News: I am in favor of an integrated society, but oppose the chaotic conditions being planned by the muddled thinking of the Detroit Board of Education. It is causing de facto reversed busing without even the advantage of provision of buses in the Vandenberg School District. The Vanderberg school is un- derpopulated, and now it is plan- ned to transfer children in the 7th and 8th grades to a new ju- nior high school in the most dan- gerous and depressed Wyoming- Pembroke area. This is a school that is far away from the home site of the Vandenberg area and will be overcrowded. It will serve to force people who are now receptive to and wel- come integration to leave the city. ONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO HAVE STAYED IN DETROIT 'Isaac B.

' Chronicle of Pittsburgh has an- nounced plans for an independent research study of its impact on the Jewish community of greater Pitts- burgh. The study will be directed by Dr. Jiri Nehnevajsa, chairman of Pittsburgh University's department of sociology and university director of research. More than 2,000 read- ers, chosen in a scientific sampling of all Chronicle readers, will be asked to fill out a questionnaire, prepared under Dr. Nehnevajsa's direction. The questionnaire will seek to learn the characteristics of Chron- icle readers, their reading prefer- ences and their differentiation as between material they read in the Jewish weekly and similar material in the general press. The study also will seek to learn what kind of advertising readers look for and how they respond to it. The questionnaire will be sent not only to Chronicle readers in Pittsburgh but also to readers liv- ing in overseas countries, including Israel. Dr. Nehnevajsa was invited to make the study by the Pittsburgh Jewish Publication and Education Foundation, which publishes the weekly. THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Friday, March 19, 1965-17 in Palestine.
