Right Wing Arrests Rally Amid Nazi Material in West Berlin
West Berlin police rounded up three German Union officers released by a magistrate last Thursday. Prosecutors secured new arrest warrants from another court for allegedly distributingHitler busts and Nazi literature to a banned group calling itself the National Youth of Germany. A 23-year-old student surrendered when police issued a warrant. In New York City two men faced charges after assaulting six Jews in a diner following alleged anti Semitic remarks. The Queens County melee prompted counter suits. Three self styled Hitler admirers in Long Island were charged with treason last week, a move that could invoke the death penalty, after initial charges of meeting for illegal purposes were upgraded. An American Jewish Congress officer opposed treason charges, urging caution against martyrdom or confusion.
