Kup’s column
One Man’s Opinion: The American Civil
Liberties Union’s defense of the Nazis’ right
to march in Skokie comes under attack by
Abba P. Lerner, professor of economics at
Florida State U. In a letter to the New York
Times, he points out: “The intention of the
ACLU is noble but the understanding of their
duty is faulty. The overriding purpose of the
ACLU is to promote and defend a democratic social order
in which freedom of speech is secure. If this purpose comes
into conflict with freedom of speech directed at destroying
such democratic social order, their obligation surely is to
protect the social order of free speech, rather than the free
speech of the destroyers.
“IT IS TRUE THAT UNPOPULAR as well as popular
speech must be kept free, but it is not the unpopularity of
Nazism that deprives Nazis of their free speech rights. It is
their opposition to that right for all and their intention to
destroy it that makes it monstrously impertinent for them to
claim it. It is a grievous mistake for the ACLU to accept
Nazism as merely another unpopular point of view to be
defended against prejudice and intolerance.” And Lerner’s
conclusion: “It is the tolerance of intolerance that allows the
fatter to grow and threaten our freedoms.”

The ordinances were ultimately overturned following a series of state and federal lawsuits because they infringed on the group’s First Amendment rights and the neo-Nazis were issued a permit to demonstrate in Skokie.

Kup’s column
You’ve heard of politics making strange
bedfellow? Here’s a topper-an Arab
group in America denouncing the neoNazis’ proposed march in Skokie because
of the suffering it would bring to the
village’s Jewish residents. Skokie Mayor
Albert Smith received this telegram from
Hisham Sharabi, president of the National
Assn. of Arab Americans: “We join with other concerned
Americans in opposing the march by the National Socialist
Party of America in Skokie as a deliberate provocation by an
anti-Semitic group in a communitywhose members have
suffered too much.” Smith, needless to mention, was almost
speechless in his surprise over the source of support.
MEANWHILE, FRANK COLLIN, the nefarious Nazi, is
coming under bitter attack from another Nazi group, the
National Socialist White People’s Party, headquartered in
Arlington, Va. The party is passing out leaflets in the
Washington area, calling Collin a “phony who is trying to
fool people by hiding the fact his father is Jewish.” The
party also charges that Collin, once a member of the
NSWPP, “stole our funds when he was ousted and used that
money to establish the crummy National Socialist Party of
America in Chicago.” (A classic example of the pot calling
the kettle black.)
