San. Clifford Case, New Jersey Republican, revealed this weekend that the New Jersey Republican Congressional delegation had given the New Jersey Young Republican Organization a June 1 deadline to rid itself of the extremist anti-Semitic “Rat Fink” element or face joint action by the Congressional delegation and the state Republican Party.

The “Rat Finks” have been under investigation by state and national G.O.P. bodies since January. Sen. Case made the disclosure on a television news program on “Extremism in America Today.”
