Veterans I rge arse 3
to Outlaw Nazi Party

LONDON, Ont. (JTA) — The
Royal Canadian Legion, a veterans
group open to all Canadian war
veterans, petitioned the Canadian
government and all provinces and
municipalities to ban the Canadian
National Socialist party. The reso-
lution noted that the Canadian
Nazis had declared publicly "that
the city of London is to become a
stronghold of the party in Canada,"
and declared that "the expressed
aims and objectives" of the small
Canadian Nazi group "are in di-
rect conflict with the democratic
principles without which no free
nation can endure."
The resolution to the federal and
local governments urged them =`to
act in concert to declare the activ-
ities of the Canadian National So-
cialist party as seditious and that
the continued existence of the
party be forbidden and that dis-
semination of its scurrilous and
treasonable utterances and publica-
tions be banned."

UN Committee Asked
to Cut Israel From Study

UNITED NATIONS. N.Y. —,A
United Nations economic commit-
tee was asked Tuesday to drop
Israel from case studies being
made on the transfer of technology
from developed countries to coun-
tries still in the developing stage.
Ibrahim Suleiman of Libya, who
made the request, contended that
Israel does not rightly fall into the
category of developing nations be-
cause it does not suffer from a
lack of technological knowhow or
capital. He said Israel was the
recipient of modern technology and
capital through immigration, its
ethnic links with advanced nations
and gifts in foreign exchange.
Suleiman thought that the case
studies in Mexico and Brazil, the
two o t h e r countries concerned,
should continue. He was supported
by Ali. Mounir of Morocco, who
said he had "the strongest reserva-
tions" about the study on Israel
and recommended that the corn-
, mittee drop it. Clarence Blau of
the United States said that the rep-
resentatives of Libya and Morocco
had made "good points" on the
choice of countries in which to
carry out the studies. He made no
mention of Israel.
Buhmrs. E. E. Kodikara of the
Philippines thought her country
1v.ould benefit from all three case
studies, including the one in Israel,
even though conditions in these
countries were not necessarily ap-
plicable to the Philippines. The
economic committee is an agency
of the United Nations Economic
and Social Council.

typographical error, had more
than its share in the May 10
issue, particularly in the Page 1
story on the Allied Jewish Cam-
paign victory dinner. Corrections
which had been made in proof
could not be made by the print-
ers in time.
The $5,668,802 total quoted for
the 1967 campaign should not
have included donations to the
Israel Emergency Fund, con-
trary to what the figures indi-
cated. In addition, the columns
of figures representing 1967 and
1968 pledges sported dollar signs
where there should have been
none.
Also the Bialik poem "To Ahad
Ha'am," which should have
given credit to the Tarbut Foun-
dation, carried no credit at all.
There were a few headlines- ,
that were dillies, which we'd
rather not repeat. Most readers
and advertisers have been very
understanding, however, and
hundreds of persons called on
Friday to express their concern.
All in all, we felt quite flat-
tered that folks care about us,
and we still consider ourselves
lucky to have put out the paper
at all, even a day late.
Any other errors our readers
may find can remain "entre
nous"—just between us. Merely
remember that in the future,
this issue may be considered a
collector's item.

Jewish News Stopped Cold by Fire;
Publishes Day Late for First Time

The dauntless Jewish News,
printing _uninterruptedly for 26
years, was daunted last week by
a fire in the print shop. For the
first time in. its history, the
paper was delivered a day late.
The staff (which made history
of sorts three years ago when it
hurdled gigantic snow drifts to
get out the paper) had already
left Post Printing Thursday
when fire broke out in the press
room, destroying m a chine s
which print the paper.
Metal plates were saved in
time so they could be sent over
to the Detroit American Publish-
ing Co. (Polish Daily News) for
printing. The interruption and
haste which the paper was trans-
ferred to the other plant resulted
in some regrettable errors.
Herbert Styles, president of
Post Printing, as well as the
mailing staff headed by- Bill
Banks, were credited with quick
action assuring publication of
The Jewish News.

The fire took its toll in
accuracy. The Jewish News,
which like any newspaper,
is plagued by the occasional
