The British government has been asked to deport Dr. Edward Fields, a leading American neo-Nazi, who is here to meet British neo-Nazi groups. The Board of Deputies of British Jews, in a letter to the Home Office, described Fields as “a dangerous man” whose presence was likely to exacerbate racial tensions. Fields, of Marietta, Georgia, is a leading member of the National States Rights Party, which is closely associated with the Ku Klux Klan. He edits the racist journal, “Thunderbolt.”
