The handbill distribution took place under the terms of a court order agreed upon by the Congress and Fair officials. The agreement was signed following a hearing before Judge Birdie Amsterdam in New York State Supreme Court on a suit brought by Dr. Joachim Prinz, president of the Congress, and 10 others. The suit sought to enjoin World's Fair president Robert Moses and officials of the Fair from interfering with the Congress in exercising its constitutional rights of free speech. of the windows and left a hang- man's noose on the door of their new East End Toronto headquar- ters. The attackers were all resi- dents of the neighborhood, a com- pletely Anglo-Saxon working class section of Toronto. At the height of the 3"-minute episode, the Nazi trio's leader, William John Beattie, brandished a rifle at the crowd. "We were scared. They were shouting: 'Kill them, kill them'," said Beattie after police were rushed to the house and dispersed the crowd. The meeting room of the head- quarters, dominated by a large swastika flag, was littered with stones and boulders, including an Defense Dept. Probes Dismissal of Employe and Prejudice Charge Jewish Education Board WASHINGTON (JTA)—The of- to Help Mentally Retarded fice of the Secretary of Defense BALTIMORE (JTA) — T h e Board of Jewish Education of Balt- imore has created a department of special education to develop a pro- gram of religious education for mentally retarded children and others unable to attend regular classes at local Jewish schools. Benjamin Freeland, retiring president of the board, also re- ported that the board had acted to meet the acute shortage of teach- ers. He said the board depart- mentalized the school faculties in a number of schools. He explained that, by assigning teachers to teach the subjects in which they have special skills in four classes, rather than the two classes they would normally teach "we have been able to improve the level of instruction in all grades with the existing staff." THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS 8—Friday, April 30, 1965 has advised Rep. Leonard Farb- stein, New York Democrat, that appropriate officials within the Defense Department are investi- gating the dismissal of a Jewish employe of the Navy by a Ger- man national who has been charged with religious prejudice. The Jew, Bernard Perlstein, was fired after 23 years of service by his German supervisor, who arrived in the United States in 1962. Perl- stein charged in the U.S. Court of Claims that the German was moti- vated by personal bias. Rep. Farb- stein asked Defense Department for a full report on the matter. Brig. Gen. C. R. Roderick wrote to Rep. Farbstein on behalf of the secretary of defense that a "sub- stantive" report on the dismissal will be sent in the near future. The Jewish War Veterans of the U.S.A. has also lodged a formal request for clarification with the Defense Department. for the Nazis and did so only when he threatened to complain to the police commission chairman. Earlier, an angry white-haired grandmother punched the "feuh- rer" when he gave a heel-clicking salute to his jeering neighbors. "You're nothing but a bunch of dirty thugs," said Mrs. Edward Deane as she struck Beattie. Her three sons served with the Cana- dian forces in World War II. "First we had termites, now these!" said another disgusted neighbor. The city building commissioner is checking into the alleged vio- lation of zoning bylaws by the neo-Nazis. The headquarters are located in a residential area, where club houses or "headquar- ters" are not permitted. Public announcement of the for- mation of the "Canadian Nazi Party" by the three Canadian neo- Nazis was denounced by the Cana- dian Jewish Congress as an effort by "young hooligans" trying to "shock the Canadian people." Besides Beattie, 23, they are John de Cock, 19, and Peter Rei- del, 16. Another announced mem- ber of the group, David Stanley, 20, who started dissemination of Nazi materials in the area two years ago, was in Vancouver where he has been busy with Nazi activi- ties for the past two months. Beattie claimed 47 members in Toronto and "thousands of sym- pathizers." - The three youths met with press and TV reporters to whom they gave the Nazi salute and had confined their labors to surreptitious distribution of anti-Semitic and anti-Negro ma- terial. President Meyer Gasner of the Canadian Jewish Congress in On- tario province said, in a state- ment:: "Our reaction to young hooligans who don obscene regalia and attempt to shock the Canadian people is that they are indecently exposing themselves and deserve no more attention than that given to a deluded exhibitionist. As to the alleged formation of an alleged Nazi party in Canada, we feel, as do all Canadians, that there is no room here or indeed anywhere in the free world, for a revival of Hitlerite conspiracy. We scorn to dignify these acts with any other comment." Meanwhile, in Los Angeles, efforts were underway to evict Ralph Forbes, self-styled "gau- leiter" of the American Nazi Party in California, from his Sydney Irmas, Jr., acting on be- half of the owners of the property, Al and Dom Rozzano, served an eviction notice on Forbes, demand- ing the removal of himself and his family from the premises. The owners charged that Forbes im- plied that he planned to use the house for Republican Pary work, but that it was being used for Nazi drills and propaganda. Appearing in court, Forbes de- nied that he had been served with the notice. The Nazi has also been charged with violating a building ordinance in occupying the Glen- dale house.

He has instilled in us a love and appreciation of the best in music for which he has our deep admration and our loyalty. May he continue to inspire and enrich our lives with his fathomless musical knowledge, and may he enjoy many more fruitful years ahead, so that we may continue to benefit from his dynamic and stimulating guidance. g)on Cpl rohinan C/torus
