German Trade Unions Are Forbidden to Let Members Join Neo-Nazi NPD
BONN (JTA) — The executiv€
council of the all-German trade
union movement, which includes
6,000,000 members, voted unan-
imously here that no member of
a trade union can hold member-
ship in the neo-Nazi National
Democratic Party.
Through that action, the ex-
ecutive committee endorsed the
ban on NPD membership by trade
unionists already adopted by a
number of individual u n i o n s
throughout West Germany.
The National Democratic Party
was in absolute chaos Sunday, on
the eve of crucial provincial elec-
tions in which it had- hoped to
amass further s u c c e s s e s. The
national chairman and national
deputy chairman had each other
expelled from the party; a former
leading Nazi was elected as na-
tional chairman; and the former
incumbent in that leading position
threatened to seek a court injunc-
tion.
The leaders in the fight were
Fritz Thielen, until now national
chairman, and Adolf von Thadden,
for the last two years the deputy
national chairman. The sequence
of the events was as follows:
1. -Thielen expelled from the
national executive von Thadden;
Otto Hess, a former SS (Nazi
elite guard) colonel and another
of the group's top national- lead-
ers; and six other national exe-
cutive members.
2. The Lower Saxony branch
of the party, at Bremen, Thie-
len's home city, expelled Thie-
len from the Lower Saxony exe-
cutive. It reinstated von Mad-
den and the seven others purg-
ed by Thielen.
3. The national executive met
Saturday at Frankfurt, support-
ed von Thadden, -and elected
Wilhelm Guttmann as successor
to the national chairmanship.
Guttmann was a high-ranking
member of the Nazi Party dur-
ing the Hitler regime and a
leader in the S.A., the Hitler
storm troops.
4. Thielen announced Sunday
he would seek an injunction
against the election of Guttmann,
on the grounds that the Frank-
furt meeting has been held "il-
legally" and not in accord with
the NPD constitution.
Von Thadden, officially still the
deputy chairman of the neo-Nazi
National Democratic Party but
now the rival of national chair-
man Thielen for the organization's
top post, was cheered loudly at an
NPD rally held in Mainz Sunday
night. All but one of the members
of the party's executive committee
—including not only von Thadden
but also seven others unseated by
Thielen but reinstated by a rump
meeting at Frankfurt were present.
The only absentee was Thielen.
Political circles here believe
Sunday night's rally at Mainz in-
dicated that von Thadden has now
in effect taken over the party's
leadership, although Thielen has
threatened to seek a court injunc-

family and is considered here as
"more radical"—in the right-wing
sense—than Thielen. However, he
has consistently denied that he had
ever been a member of the Nazi
Party.
As the kernel of a nut is not- de-
spised, even though the shell be
marred, so it is with the scholar.
