as a Nazi unfit to hold gov-
ernment office. He was later
examined a second time by
his father-in-law and
classified as one of the least
important Nazis.
A number of related inci-
dences of U.S. intelligence
surveillance have recently
been brought to light. The
Philadelphia Bulletin re-
ported last month that the
FBI had made plans to tie
the late civil rights leader
Dr. Martin Luther King,

and civil rights and anti-
Vietnam War activist Dr.
Benjamin Spock to the
Communist Party through
"counter-intelligence ac-
tion."
The Student Struggle for
Soviet Jewry reported to the
JTA on June 29 that it had
been under FBI surveil-
lance almost from the day it
was founded 15 years ago.
This organization has
pressed for emigration and
civil rights for Soviet Jews,
but eschews violence.

Vietnam Quarter

NEW YORK — A "Viet-
namese Quarter" has been
proposed for Jerusalem as a
reception center for "boat
people" and other refugees.
The innovative concept
was one of many presented
by architecture students
from Technion-Israel Insti-
tute of Technology and from
schools in five other nations
at "The International De-
sign Workshop" in
Jerusalem.
