Two West German cities are refusing to rent their municipal halls for meetings of the extremist National Democratic Party (NPD), it was reported today.
At Ulm, where the NPD had already rented the town hall for its congress, scheduled for November, the mayor announced he will do all in his power to prevent the parley from taking place in the city. At Wolfsburg, the City Council passed a resolution forbidding the lease of its City Hall for an NPD rally.
