Articles written by a re- tired police staff sergeant, Ken Peglar, have contained disparaging comments about Italians, Pakistanis, blacks, Poles, Catholics and Jews. Though the police com- missioner has no direct re- sponsibility for the publica- tion, a -product of the policemen's union, the pub- lic session was convened be- cause the "image" of the police Corce was involved. Judge Philip Givens, com- mission chairman, presided. It was learned that after an apology was given previously by the Police Association president, Peglar's arti- cles had continued to ap- pear through 1978, focus- ing further public atten- tion on the- issue. A brief prepared by the joint committee on commu- nity relations of the CJC . and Bnai Brith paid tribute to the "excellent relations" of recent years in the joint committee's contact with the police force. The brief said it was all the more up- setting to find such material in an official police associa- tion publication. The brief said the CJC made no complaint when the first disclosures of the- objectionable material was made, on the assumption that Peglar was represent- ing, as a retired policeman, the thinking of 40 years ago, but when it became known that the bigoted material had been appearing over for your party • "During all the years I have watched and preserved the -scroll I have waited for the historic mo- ment to come to Israel and bring it with me to its final destination," Rabbi Metz: ger said-, "Novi, after 40 ' years. of wandering; the scroll has found its natural place at last: This, is the greatest day in my life."
