Two groups, the International Committee of Dachau Concentration Camp Inmates and the German-Jewish Study Association, today protested the holding of a rally next fall by former members of the Nazi S. S. in the German town of Hamelin.
The Dachau committee urged the West German government to ban the meeting and instructed its subsidiary councils in various countries to ask their governments to bar former members from traveling to Hamelin for the rally.
