Alexander F. Miller, Southern
Regional Director of the Anti
Defamation League, made the COM
plant on the basis of a leaflet
headed "Stoner Anti Jewish
Party" which the League sharged
Violates Section 211 of the United
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1947-06-06

States Criminal Code relating to
publications of indecent charac-
ter" This statue makes it crime
to send through the mails printed
matter melting to murder or as
sassination.
Announcing the action taken by
the Anti-DefamatiOn League, Ar
mold Forster, head of the Organi-
zatiOn's legal division, pointed out
that StOner has gone one step
beyond the activity of such anti
Semites as william Hunt Dieder-
ich, the internationally known
sculptor, who was cleared on a
criminal complaint last week in
Federal court here.
"While the Authorization
League first traced the activities
of Diederich," Forster said, it
made no request for criminal ac-
ton against him since his actions
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1947-06-06

were technically within the law
We felt, on the other hand, that
men like Deiedrich must be social
ly ostracized in order to build a
dam against the poison which they
disseminate. Action such as that
taken by the Institute of Arts and
Letters to expel Diederich from it's
ranks achieves this result. Stoner,
we believe, however, has violated
the law in his most recent leaflet
which he is circulating through
the mails.
StOner himself is an cratic bigOt
who yields little influence and
has no organization that might
make his activities dangerous. He
even was unacceptable to the Ku
KluX Khan which threw him out.
But if such violations of the law
are permitted to pass unchalleng-
ed, they will open the flood gates
to similar abuses by the organized
forces of bigOtry that can result
in murder and riot"
In it's complaint, the League
points out that in his anti-Semitic
leaflet Stoner says that "the Jews
are too evil to be allowed to live"
and urges the enactment of law
making it a criminal offense to
be a Jew, punishable by death"
The leaflet declares that eff our
great and beloved America is to
live, Jewry must die and the Jew
ish race must cease to exist"
