Dachau Liberator Hits Butz
NEW YORK — The
commander of the U.S. in-
fantry troops that liberated
Dachau 33 years ago is still
shocked by what he saw at
the concentration camp —
and by historical re-
visionists who today insist
the Holocaust never hap-
pened.

Addressing
Defamation League of Bnai
Brith leaders, with Gloria
Hartenbaum, "one of the
lucky ones we saved from
the ovens," retired Colonel
Walter J. Fellenz gave an
eyewitness account of what
the American soldiers found
on April 29, 1945, "at that
damned death mill,
Dachau."
He described in words and
photos taken at the camp
"the grisly spectacle of
30,000 dead bodies, some
stacked like cordwood, some
heaped like rags on the
ground, some piled on top of
each other in open pits —
and 32,000 starved but liv-
ing bodies which had
miraculously survived one
of the most shameful crimes
since the beginning of
time."
"I'd like to meet that Ar-
thur Butz who wrote The
Hoax of the Six Million, "
Col. Fellenz said. "Let him
dare to tell me face-to-face
that it didn't happen."

Shed Nary a Tear for the ACLU
By DAVID SCHWARTZ
(Copyright 1978, JTA, Inc.)
"Got a cold, Joe?" I asked.
"Why are you holding your
handkerchief in your
hand? "
Joe looked up from the
magazine he was reading.
"Why," he smiled, "you
wouldn't believe it. I was
expecting a torrent of
tears."
"What is it?" I asked anx-
iously.
"Oh," said Joe, "it's a
story about the American
Civil Liberties Union. This
paper says they are having
very hard times. It is all due
to their taking up the de-
fense of the Nazis to go
marching in Skokie. In one
year the American Civil
Liberties Union has drop-
ped 40,000 members. The
organization, as a result,
has been forced to cut down
its staff and cut salaries. I
was reading the story of
their great distress. I
naturally expected to break
out weeping. You know, a
recent survey of the organ-
ization shows that it is in
large part made up of Jews
— at least 40 percent of its
membership is Jewish — so
the distress to a Jew is all
the greater. So I got out my
handkerchief prepared to
cry, but couldn't work up a
drop."
"I guess this shows," I
said, "you don't approve
entirely of the American
Civil Liberties Union action
in this matter."
"Yes," said Joe, "I
guess I don't. You know,"
Joe added, "Jews have a
phrase for expressing
what they consider the
MD Seminars
Set for Israel
NEW YORK — Two
American medical schools
are sponsoring continuing
medical education seminars
for American doctors in Is-
rael during 1978. Sponsors
are the Albert Einstein Col-
lege of Medicine of Yeshiva
University in New York
and the Hahneman College
of Medicine in Philadelphia.
The Albert Einstein
seminars take place June
10-20; Aug. 26 - Sept. 5; and
Nov. 18-28 under the gen-
eral heading of office man-
agement of common disor-
ders.
The Hahneman seminars
— ambulatory manage-
ment of selected medical
problems — will take place
June 17-27; July 22-Aug. 1;
and Nov. 25 - Dec. 5.

greatest abomination.
They speak of a chillul
ha-Shem, 'blasphemy of
the Holy Name' and to me
the parade of Nazis in the
very state where Ab-
raham Lincoln lived
comes in that category.
"Of course," said Joe, "I
believe everyone should
have his full civil rights, but
that doesn't mean that you
parade for the principles of
mass murder and contempt
for all justice for which the
Nazis stand."
"As to rights," Joe said, "I
don't believe in such a thing
as absolute right. To have
any government, it is neces-
sary for the individual to
yield some of his private
rights. The aim of govern-
ment as Thomas Paine
wrote in Common Sense is
security and that is cer-
tainly not enhanced by the
Nazis.
"I believe it was Justice
Oliver Wendell Holmes of
the Supreme Court who a
long time ago pointed to cer-
tain obvious limitations to
the right of free speech. It is
not permissible, he pointed
out, to get up in a crowded
hall and without justifica-
tion cry out 'fire' — for that
may lead to trouble and in-
security.
"The great fighters for
liberty and freedom have
fought the very things for
which the Nazis stand."
It is strange," I said to
Joe, "that an organization
which itself is so heavily
Jewish should take up the
cudgels for the Nazis."
"Yes," said Joe, "it is the
Jewish inferiority complex.
It was a Jew, Freud, who
discovered the inferiority
complex and no wonder be-
cause anti-Semitism has
had its effect on the Jew
himself. It is this inferiority
complex that tends to make
the Jew bend backwards as
it were and even assist the
anti-Semite."
You have heard of Hillel,
of course," Joe said.
"Yes," said Joe, "I suppose
everyone knows the story
about the heathens who
came up to Hillel and said,
'Rabi, I am in a hurry, tell
me what Judaism is while I
stand on one leg.'
"And Hillel answered:
'What is hateful to thee, do
not unto thy neighbor. This
is the whole Law. All the
rest is commentary.'
"And Hillel," said Joe,
"said something else which
is less well known but very
important for Jews to re-
member. He said, 'If I am
not for myself, who is for
me?' "

Nazi Ghetto Art
ON ALL IN STOCK
NEW YORK — An ex-
hibition of 77 paintings and
drawings done by Jewish
artists during their intern-
ment in Nazi concentration
camps and ghettos will be
held through Nov. 12 at the
Jewish Museum in New
York. Many of the works are
from the Holocaust
Museum at Kibutz
Lochamei HaGhettaot
(Ghetto Fighters' Kibutz) in
Israel.
"Sure," I said, "he was
the man of the Talmud
whom the late Prof. Sol-
omon Schechter of the
Jewish Theological
Seminary once thought
Lincoln resembled. Lin-
coln was a rail aplitter —
Hillel was a wood chop-
per. Both were known for
their democratic philos-
ophy and also for their
gift for terse expression."
