He said he had planned to attend the dedication ceremony, "but my family and physician prevailed on me not to risk so taxing a journey at this time.

Oliver — pro- viding the vilification of Jews. Oliver, contributing editor of American Opinion, a John Birch Society publication, in an address on "Conspiracy or Degeneracy," told the right-wing audience that the "conspiracy of the Jews," pre- dating "the conspiracies of the . . . Communists," has helped pro- duce the evils of today. These evils, he asserted, include "de- generates, scum, dregs, savages . . dear little cockroaches, howl- ing mobs, parasites and the lazy illegitimate." Although the smear of Jews by Oliver, a member of the faculty at the University of Illinois, went un- mentioned in the daily press, it was clearly noted by representa- tives of the Anti-Defamation league of Bnai Brith and the Jewish Com- munity Council, who were in at- tendance at all sessions of the rally.
