But the full 15-member committee was scheduled to take a re- vote Monday. CG - • OFF except mdse. yellow tagged All Sales Final 557-5370 "Purely Commentary" of Feb. 6 argues that for Jews to train and arm themselves to fight the enemy is "repul- sive" and "disgusting." Our own Constitution re- tains for us the right to arm ourselves. Far from being il- legal, the suggestion that Jews train and arm them- selves to fight the enemy, should the enemy attack, is part of the American Con- stitutional and legal sys- tem. Even if it were not legal, this type of self-defense ac- tivity would clearly be re- quired in light of the Inabil- ity of previous systems of "law and order" to protect Jews (most notably Weimar Germany). Scholars of Jewish tradi- tion and practice, have argued that real Jewish self-defense is not only within the Jewish tradition but is indeed an individual and national duty.

Oak Park Ill again, and I repeat again, Harold Covington, a Nazi, as he calls himself, head of the National Socialist Party. Are these "guest stars" a way to increase TV ratings? If so, then all network shows _permitting the "superstars" are guilty of insipid, inces- sant, inadmissible acts. We need to be exposed to the Covingtons, the likes of the Ku Klux Klan's Wil- kenson. But how often? Is it a series? Who are their sponsors? Skokie was fought, but, here we are with better coverage via na- tional TV. It has come to my atten- tion that the Tom Snyder show has been asked by opposing groups for equal time. If the shows such as the Tomorrow Show do not explain why opposition is not invited to sit with the "superstars" why are we buying the products that sponsor these shows? Addresses can be ob- tained on all products. Why not telegrams, post cards, letters making these man- ufacturers and TV networks know that we out here are not impotent, not at an im- passe.
