The official organ of the Catholic Bishopric of Hildershein demanded today that the West German Government outlaw the extremists National Democratic Party. The NDP, which has been formally described as “neo-Nazi” by West German Interior Minister Paul Lucke, evoked worldwide concern last November when it won Parliamentary seats for the first time in two state elections.
The Catholic newspaper said the NDP should be outlawed now, before such neo-Nazi forces gained such strength that it would be impossible to overcome them.
