Warning Given
in Book Removal

NEW YORK — A civil
rights attorney has urged
liberals to vigorously main-
tain their vigilance against
censorship of books in
school libraries, while at the
same time being sensitive
to the deeply-felt convic-
tions of some conservatives.
Samuel Rabinove, direc-
tor of the American Jewish
Committee's Discrimina-
tion Division, expressed
this view in a recent address
to the Unitarian Univer-
salist Fellowship of North-
ern Westchester, in Mt.
Kisco, N.Y.
Rabinove cited the recent
Island Trees school board
lawsuit, in which nine
books were arbitrarily re-
moved from the high school
library by the school board,
as a particularly flagrant
example of book censorship.
In that case, both the
American Jewish Commit-
tee and the Unitarian Uni-
versalist Association joined
in an amicus brief, along
with other groups, seeking
to overturn the board's ac-
tion.
He also listed similar ac-
tions of school boards in
West Virginia, Missouri,
Idaho and Massachusetts,
and pointed out that much
community anger was
aroused in these cases on
both sides of the issue.
