has examined the anti-Semitic material coming from Arlington, ya., and has allowed it to pass through customs.
■ The Post Office Deiiartment, it went on, has informed the Congress that it will not take action unless a successful action has been undertaken against distributors in the court.
Saul Hayes, executive president, of the Congress, told the ministers, yesterday that distribution df^t^e hate literature was much more dangerous than the distribution of obscene books.
"People can't read Fanny Hill but they can defame a group," Mr. Hayes said. "Obscenity might poison one mind out of a hundred, or one out of a thousand, but this is much more dangerous."
; He. said that the ameridmerjt-tio the Criminal Code' propbsed by the Congress did not interfere with free speech.
i "We beliey^ these people are lieckiers who don-t know w^dl they're talking about. The tra; ditionar argument of free speech is not enough,' 'he added.
Mr. Nicholson asked the Con-gres to submit positive ideas for ways to improve his department's role in the matter, since eyerypiece of ma^^L in the coun-itry could not: be opened.
4 Mr. Garland also! asked for positive ideas! ■ because . of the difficulty of inspecting all pack-aggs. • attcustoms.
