When Supreme Court Justice Joseph J. McGoldrick several weeks ago refused the Friends of New Germany a charter, incorporation papers were immediately filed in Passaic, N. J., it was disclosed Friday by Walter D. Van Sickle, attorney for the “Friends.”
Van Sickle made the statement during cross-examination by Andrew S. Fraser, attorney for Anton Haegele, who is a defendant in an injunction suit instituted by the national leaders of the “Friends.”
Yesterday’s testimony brought to a close the first week of the trial in which Henry Woisin, national treasurer of the “Friends,” has sought to restrain Haegele from continuing publication of the Deutscher Beobachter, Nazi weekly, and from retaining control of the “Friends'” offices at 22 East Eighty-sixth street.
