More than 16,000 persons last night attended a memorial meeting for Moissaye J. Olgin, editor of the Jewish Morning Freiheit who died Nov. 22, which was held by the Communist Party at the Madison Square Garder. William Weiner, treasurer of the party, devoted much of his speech to arguing that American Jews who had been sympathetic to Communism were renegades of they permitted the Nazi-Soviet pact to affect their loyalty. The crowd booed the American Jewish Congress and Jewish Labor Committee, the organizations which sponsored a rally at the Garden last week protesting against the invasion of Poland.
