A resolution calling on the West German Government and the Social Democratic Party in Germany to combat the dangers of rising neo-Nazism in that country was adopted here today at the annual conference of the British Poale Zion. Another resolution called upon the Soviet Government to improve the situation of Soviet Jewry. The resolution cited examples of discriminations “against individual Jews and against the Jewish people as a whole in the USSR.”
The resolution on Germany, which referred to the fact that the Social Democratic Party there is now part of the Bonn Government coalition, urged both the party and the Government “to prosecute with vigor a policy in defense of democracy and freedom in West Germany, and to stem the advance of neo-Fascist ideas which are a danger to the whole free world.” The resolution was adopted after the conference heard a report showing the headway being made in German state elections in recent months by the neo-Nazi National Democratic Party.
