Mr.. Butman said there had
been a misunderstanding. His

there would be a deadlock at
the convention. in which event
their reluctant candidate might
be the dark horse who would
surge to the front.
But Mr.. Bowles has repeat

LOS ANGELES, July 8 (AP) .
Criticism of Adlai Stevenson

Russian Premier Khrushchev
has created a profound change
in American political values:
Foreign policy has pushed
pocketbook issues out of top
spot as the most important
issue in the 1860 election cam
paign.
This is the opinion of the
Nations leading newspaper
editors who have just been
polled by Congressional Quar-
terly. Members of Congress
queried in the poll disagreed
only to the extent of placing
foreign policy second to med
ical care for the aged.
In polls taken by CO since
1856, such issues as imitation, y
prosperity, "EiSenhower'S per-
formance" and cost of living
dominated the picture, in the
opinion of the editors ano
congressman.
But this year, 1854 editors who
answered the poll overwhelm-
ingly put foreign policy" first
and 204 Senators and Repre-
sentatives placed it second.
Third most important issue
this year for both groups was
farm policy.
The 10 top issues with the
editors this year, in order
were:
Foreign policy.
Medical care for the aged.
Farm policy.
Military preparedness
Eisenhower'S performance
Cost of living
Handling of summit.
Federal spending.
Federal aid to education.
Religion in politics.
Among members of Congress

No State Religion
UN Praises Religion In Israel

whole-heartedly that the study dealing
with Israel casts bright, shining light on
the Jewish State.
The test of Israers democracy is: How
does it treat the non-JeWish religious COM
munities = especially the Arab Moslems
and Christians? The answers are clear.
Here is a summary of some of the an
sWers as the Commission on Human
Rights will read in the Israel section.
"The Jewish religion is no state-religiOn
There is no established religion in
Israel . . Freedom of religion is guaran-
teed not only in the Declaration of Inde-
pendence of May ID, 1948, but is enforced
by Israel courts as part of the common
law. All persons in Israel enjoy full lib
erty of conscience and the free exercise
of their forms of worship, subject only
to the maintenance of public order and
morals"
In short, the official document shows:
There are no restrictions in Israel upon
the right of individuals to adhere or not
to adhere to particular religion or to
any religion"

A Case For Civil Liberties?

as I found the literature in this case, I
find even more distasteful any attempt to
prevent it's distribution" Lawyer Speiser
commended the police for resisting pres

police permitted the Nazis to work pub

Dissident elements within the ACLU

in defense of a Nazi because so many
Communists had been defended. They said

the ledger, shed any leftist taint, and be-

A non-Jewish newspaperman noted that
''While Shapiro was in the hearing defend
ing Morgan Rockwell was outside in
the hall explaining that his Nazi party
believes about 90 percent of American
Jews will have to be thrown into gas
chambers"
Later Rockwell thanked the volunteer
Jewish lawyers. Then, in front of their
faces, he raised his hand in Nazi salute
and said: "Sieg hell"
There was crude merriment among
RockwelPs Nazis when they joked about
the "Jew" lawyers defending their party
without a fee.
The ACLU approved distribution of the
Nazi handbills although they foment dis
order and incite violence and murder. BY
it's action, the ACLU made Rockwell
cause celebre and prosecuted patriot"
It was RockwelPs fondest dream to attain
such a role. He loved the publicity.
Lawyer Speiser termed the affair "a
classical free speech case" But others de-

as "a classical bid for publicity"

In Washington Dispute

WASHINGTON - (JTA) - The Amerl-

fright" of Nazis to advocate the gasslng
of American Jewish men, women and
children.
This DEVELOPMENT came as a shock to
manv of the ACLU's supporters and mem
bers. 1t is subject of raging controversy
within the organization.
The ACLU has distinguished record
of protecting free speech and other CIVIL
liberties But dismay occurred when TWO
ACLU lawyers, both of Jewish origin
rushed to defend George Lincoln Rock
Wells american Nazi party" These law
yers attempted to turn a simple street
corner fracas into a Constitutional free
speech case.
The sacred right of Nazis to urge
mass murder was, in effect, proclaimed
by the ACLU although it was merely
disorderly conduct issue. An ACLU FAC
ton termed their organizations action
"precipitate and marked by unseemly
haste" They charged ACLU attorneys
with seeking personal publicity"

Once a young colored fell

them from fighting against
one another.

Cities Urged to Develop
Broader Governments

The group recommended that
the Federal Urban Renewal
Administration gives special
preferences to communities
where programs and planning
are executed on an ea-wide
basis.
The CED cited what it termed
a conservative estimate that
nearly 7 million dwelling units
in urban sections need replac-
ing and another 2 million re-
quire rehabilitation. 1t said the
estimated cost runs to $120-125
billion.
Saying that private funds
could be expected to meet
three-f ourths to seventh
eighths of the total outlay, it
viewed the Federal Govern
ment's role as setting the stage
for private development and
providing financial assistance
only to the extent required to
permit the private real estate
market to function effectively.

of urban renewal should in
