THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Friday, November 23, 1984 HAPPY BIRTHDAY 559-1042 -ANSZEL Right-winger's appearance at Calif. convention scored Los Angeles (JTA) — The Simon Weisenthal Center, joined by the American Jewish Commit- tee and the Friends of California Libraries, has mounted a vigorous protest against the decision by the California Library Association to provide a forum at its upcoming convention here for right-wing publisher David McCalden, who claims the Holocaust was a hoax. McCalden, long associated with anti-Semitic and white suprema- cist groups, is one-of four members of so-called "Truth Missions" who will have display booths and will be allowed a one-hour appearance at the convention which is ex- pected to be attended by 3,000 delegates. McCalden is also a long- time associate of the California-based Institute for Historical Review, another Holocuast revisionist organization. Under the alias Lewis Brandon, McCalden, in 1979, offered to pay $50,000 to anyone who could prove that a single Jew died in a Nazi gas chamber. Clearly a publicity - stunt, when proof flooded in, McCalden reneged on his offer. Neil Sandberg, western regional director of the AJCom- mittee, called the Library Asso- ciation's decision "disgraceful, shameful, an action which could be read as anti-Semitic." The Library Association is being backed however, by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) which takes the position that McCalden has a right to speak as a matter of "intellectual freedom." 29301 Southfield Rd.

Kapelyuk is the first Israeli who has openly visited Yemen since 1948. Of the 50,000 Jews who lived in Yemen until 1949, only 1,100 re- main. According to Kapelyuk, they live in respect making their living in a variety of professions, such as goldsmith work, leather works, construction, carpentry, and business. The Jews are considered "pro- tected citizens." Each pays the equivalent of $20 a year head tax in return for protection from a local tribe or the local governor. The only limitations on the Jews are a ban on carrying a dag- ger, which is customary among Yemenite men, and a ban on pur- chasing farm land. However, they may carry rifles and pistols, as some actually do, and they are allowed to engage in non-farm real estate transactions. Rabbis aid poor .
