RALEIGH, N.C. (JTA) —
The Anti-Defamation
League of Bnai Brith ex-
pressed praise for the pas-
sage of a law banning
paramilitary training
camps run by the Ku Klux
Klan and other extremist
groups.
The legislation, which
has passed both houses of
the North Carolina legisla-
ture, was spearheaded by
State Sen. Henson Barnes
and based on a model sta-
tute drawn up by the ADL.
The bill was opposed by
members of the Ku Klux
Klan, who have claimed to
have paramilitary opera-
tions in the state in order to,
according to the Klan, de-
fend themselves.
The ADL model statute
has been introduced in the
legislatures of several other
states and has already been
enacted into law in Connec-
ticut. The model statute,
which was made public last
February, was the basis
upon which the North
Carolina bill was drafted.

Jewish Groups Hit, Charge
They Halted Moonie Parley
NEW YORK (JTA) —
The American Jewish
Committee and the Ameri-
can Jewish Congress said
today they "reject" charges
by the Unification Church
of the Rev. Sun Myung
Moon that the two organiza-
tions "used the powerful
means which they control"
to force cancellation of a
"World Conference for
Judeo-Christian Dialogue"
which the church planned to
hold in Jerusalem next
month.
Wishner,
Maynard
president of the AJCom-
mittee, and Henry Sieg-
man, executive director of
the AJCongress said, in a
joint statement:
"To the extent that this
cancellation is due to action
taken by our two organiza-
tions, as the Unification
Church asserts, we can only
be glad. We reject the
church's charges . . . that we
used our 'power' or acted in
ways contrary to the tenets
of free speech or tolerance in

ous Jewish homes have
been thrown into turmoil
'and parents subjected to se-

the widespread proselytiz-
ing activities of the Unifica-
tion Church among Jewish
and other youth.
They warned the scholars
not to accept the all-
expenses-paid invitation to
the Jerusalem conference,
noting that it and other con-
ferences in various part of
the world were self-serving
devices by the Unification
Church to associate itself
with the names of promi-
nent and respected persons.
The Unification Church
claimed that "The charges
that the teachings of Rev.
Moon are 'distinctly anti-
Semitic' are absolutely
false" and "we reject" these
"slanderous charges."
It said the conference
was to have been an
t` ecumenical dialogue" to
promote "unity between
diverse religious tradi-
tions . . . we are opposed
to all forms of racism and -
prejudice and believe._
that all men are equal in
the sight of God."
In a related development,
Reform Judaism magazine
reported recently that more
and more religious cults are
actively recruiting elderly
Jews, particularly in re-
tirement communities and
nursing homes in Florida
and California.
