Jewish leaders here expressed sorrow and amazement over plans by the sponsors of the “God and Country Rally” to be held here Saturday, which include an appearance by Dr. Revilo P. Oliver, known for his rightist views.
The Jewish Community Council of Metropolitan Boston and the Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith, noted in their protest over the rally appearance that Dr. Cliver published an article in “American Opinion, ” a publication of the John Birch Society, in which he contended that “it is a lie that the Nazis killed 6,000,000 Jews.”
