The Jewish War Veterans indicated today that they would take further measures to have the United States Department of Justice require George Lincoln Rockwell to register as a foreign agent.

The patriotic organization had called on the Department for such action on the grounds that Rockwell’s membership in the “World Union of National Socialists” made him a foreign agent. Further steps were due following the announcement that Colin Jordan, the British head of that organization, had designated Rockwell as his replacement while he served out a nine-month prison sentence for violation of the British Public Order Act. Rockwell presumably would “direct” the world movement from the head-quarters of his party in Arlington, Va.
