urb of Chicago, from stag-
ing demonstrations.
The NSP scheduled its
July 4 march in front of the
Skokie village hall after the
U.S. Supreme Court ruling.
In his statement, Epstein
said, "The fact that these
self-acknowledged Nazis
have chosen a pre-
dominantly Jewish area in
which to demonstrate and
promote their vicious and
un-American program of
group and racial hatred is
clear evidence of their de-
sire to provike dissension
at the Manhattan apart-
ment of George Klein, a
New York industrialist who
was, with Detroit industrial-
ist Max Fisher, a coordina-
tor of the Ford election
campaign last fall.
Brock, a former U.S. Sen-
ator, was in New York for
dinner with ex-President
Ford and former Vice Presi-
dent Nelson A. Rockefeller.
He met for about two hours
at Klein's apartment with
about 75 Jewish community
leaders at what was de-
scribed as a get-acquainted
gathering. The guests in-
cluded New York State Re-
publican Chairman Richard
Rosenbaum.
Another Republican, Sen.
Robert Packwood of Ore-
gon, said in a speech on the
Senate floor last week that
"suggestions" that Men-
ahem - Begin's election
"may 'stall' the peace proc-
ess (in the Middle East)
are made with ignorance or
malice."
He
contended
that
Begin's leadership "does
not significantly change the
chances for an Arab-Israeli
peace" and Begin's policy
on the future of the West
Bank "has been shown to
be flexible."
