HASSIDIC PATROLS NOW INTERFAITH AND INTERRACIAL
NEW YORK (JTA)-The citizens radio car patrol organized by Has¬ sidic Jews in the crime-ridden Crown Heights section ot Brooklyn is being expanded into an inter¬ faith interracial project," said Rab¬ bi Samuel Schrage, one of the or¬ ganizers.
The reorganization was decided on after a closed meeting of Pro¬ testant, Catholic and Jewish lead¬ ers with civil and political offlcals attending. The first change will be the name of the patrol. Called the Maccabees since its formation, it is now the "Citizens Community Patrol."
Rabbi Schrage and eight other Hassidic rabbis attended the closed meeting. The 40 Brooklyn commu¬ nity leaders present included Bish¬ op E. D. Washington, a Negro, who volunteered to take charge of the patrol's operations during the Sab¬ bath.
A 10-member steering committee was named at the meeting to direct the reorganization. The steering committee was instructed to get more radio-equipped patrol cars. The Maccabees have been operat¬ ing five cars, obtained through do¬ nations, manned by unarmed Has¬ sidic Jews.
Rabbi Benjamin Kreitman, a Maccabee official and rabbi of the Brooklyn Jewish Center who was chairman at the meeting, said that the organization demonstrated that the patrol "can in no way be called a vigilante group nor-may it be said we are directing our activity toward any particular ethnic group." Negro groups had made such charges.

Compiled from JTA and WUP Reports
BONN (JTA)—A West German parliamentary leader and a Germafi youth group who have recently returned from visits to Israel declared here that relations between Israel and Germany are reaching a crisis point.
Dr. Carlo Schmld, vice president of the Bundestag, said in an interview that "the situation has deteriorated notice'- ably." The youth group, consisting of 28 high school teachers spent three weeks working and traveling in Israel. Repre¬ sentatives of the group told a news conference that the Israelis they met were seriously disturbed over develop¬ ments in West Germany.
liONDON (JTA)—The Bonn government is contem¬ plating inviting Egyptian President Nasser to visit West Germany, it was reported here in the Sunday Observer. Commenting on the report, the paper said that such a visit would be "embarrassing" In a number of ways,
"In the first place," the paper declared, "Israel would be thoroughly suspicious and the matter might well tie added to the affair of the German rocket technicians In Cairo to make up charges of German plotting with Israel's enemies."
COIjOGNE, (JTA)—A West German rocket specialist, Prof. Wolfgang Pilz, said that the aid he land other West German scientists were giving Egypt could enable Egypt to put satellites into orbit.
He denied that JiAy members of the team of German scientists in Egypt wsrei working on atornic, bacteriological or chemical weapons. JfTe insisted that "my work in Egypt Is not directed against Israel in any way."
He also said he did not plan to return to West Germany because he did not feel his personal safety had received adequate guarantees from West German officials, a reference to bomb attacks to which he and other West German rocket!' experts have been subjected in recent years.
BUENOS AIRES (JTA)—Adolf Eichmann, Jr., the second son of the Nazi war criminal who was executed in Israel, for his role in the annihilation of 6,000,000 Jews, proclaimed himself the leader of the "Argentine Nazi Party" which, he said, belongs to a "world union of National Socialism."
Addressing a press conference on the occasion of the second anniversary of the death of his father, the young Eichman, clad in a Nazi-style uniform and wearing a swastika armband, said thai his father had dedicated his life to fighting for all those who were "bleeding under the Jewish-Zionism yoke" and was "assassinated by an un¬ scrupulous people damned by humanity for many centu¬ ries."
NEW VORK (JTA)—The general board of the National Council of Churches, representing 40,000,000 Protestants of 31 tlenominations, adopted a resolution here condemning anti-Semitism and declaring that the concept of collective Jewish responsibility for the crucifixion was a distortion of the message of Christianity.
The resolution also said that "the spiritual heritage of Jews and Christians .should draw us to each other In obedience Iq the one Father" and that "the historic schism in our relations carries with it the need for constant vigi¬ lance lest dialogue deteriorate into conflict. We must con¬ fess that sometimes us Christians we have given way to unti-Semitlsm."
WASHINGTON (WUP)—It was reported from Paris that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization has appointed a German, Maj. Gen. Ernst Ferber, to head its new strategic planning staff composed of four officers. Gen. Fert>er is a veteran of the Third Reich's Wehrmacht.
