Judge Michael Dontzin granted ADL summary judgment and dismissed the lawsuit filed by the U.S. Labor Party in April 1979. The suit, following ADL's denunciation of the anti- Jewish philosophies and associations of the USLP and its leader, Lyndon LaRouche, charged the ADL with defamation, in- vasion of privacy and as- sault. Seymour Reich, chair- man of ADL's National Civil Rights Committee, said Judge Dontzin agreed with ADL's position that USLP spokesmen were pub- lic figures whose positions were openly disseminated. The court said that "by cal- ling attention to them- selves," LaRouche and his associates had "exposed themselves to challenge, and even to ridicule or de- nunciation.' Dontzin, in a 22-page opinion, said that ADL's characterization of the USLP as anti-Semitic constitutes "fair com- ment" in view of the group's "highly critical views about prominent Jewish figures, families and organizations such as ADL and Bnai Brith." • TEMPLE EMANU-EL 14450 West Ten Mile Rd., Oak Park- 967 4020 - Proudly Continues Its SUNDAY SPEAKERS SERIES with CLIVE BARNES Dance and Drama Critic of the New York Times, ' speaking on "DANCE IN AMERICA TODAY" Sunday, November 2nd 7:30 P.M.

In upholding continued ADL vigilance against anti-Semitism and other forms of bigotry, the judge observed that "ADL did no more than act in accordance with its historic and organ- izational purpose; that is, to express its opinion and con- cerns when anti-Semitism appeared and to identify and confront it as such." In light of the Holocaust, as well as the history of anti-Semitism, according to the judge, "it was reason- able to point out what it (ADL) perceived to be anti- Semitic overtones" in USLP pronouncements. In commenting on the de- cision, Reich said that ADL "will pursue what the court referred to as the League's `historic and organizational purpose' of identifying and confronting anti-Semitism, and it will continue to monitor the activities of the LaRouche groups and all other organizations which indulge in such activity."

Neo-Nazi Rally Protested BONN (JTA) — West German authorities are being urged to ban the con- vention of the neo-Nazi Na- tional Democratic Party (NPD) scheduled to be held in Augsburg Nov. 22. Scores of trade unions, public offi- cials and organizations of Holocaust survivors have joined the call, warning that the convention-will arouse a wave of protests and anti- Nazi demonstrations in that south German city. The attitude of tolerance of the neo-Nazi movement in West Germany was shar- ply attacked at a meeting in Augsburg of a national trade union representing workers in the printing in- dustry. The umbrella organiza- tion of trade unions in the Federal Republic, DGB, and Augsburg's Mayor Hans Breuer called on the public to participate in an Anti- Fascist Action Week being organized to coincide with the NPD convention. It will be highlighted by a mass demonstration against neo-Nazi activities. Meanwhile, Interior Minister Gerhard Baum said in an interview in the mass circulation news- paper Bild that anti- Semitic violence is on the rise. He cited the recent desecration of the Jewish cemetery in Frankfurt, the city with Germany's second largest Jewish community, where van- dals splashed paint and scrawled anti-Semitic slogans on gravestones. Baum observed that while the number of neo- Nazis is small, their readi- ness to commit violent acts has increased dramatically. He suggested as one re- medy that the Hitler era should be discussed in Ger- man schools much more in- tensively and thoroughly. Israel Honors Costa Rican JERUSALEM (JTA) — Costa Rica's envoy to the United Nations in the late 1940s, Ricardo Fournier, played a key role in helping the Zionist movement win a majority for sovereignty. His memory was honored by the Jewish National Fund in a ceremony at the Peace Forest near Jerusalem, attended by Costa Rican Ambassador Ronald Fernandez-Pinto and senior Foreign Ministry and JNF officials. Four- nier's daughter spoke of her father's love of the Zionist cause, and planted a tree in his memory. Be the master of your will, and the slave of your conscience.
