Abraham Cohen, who was reelected Kings County commander at the meeting In the East Flatbush Jewish Community Center, 661 Linden Boulevard, defended the presence of the American war veterans at the scene of last week's disorder. He denounced the attack made on them after Mathias asked the German speakers If there would be any speeches in English.

Officials Back Stand Two other speakers, City Councilman Abner C. Surpless and Representative Donald L. OToole of Bay Ridge, supported Cohen's stand. "As a lawyer," Mr. Surpless stated, "I say there was nothing wrong In asking that question." Representative O'Toole said he would have asked the same question if he had attended the bund meeting and declared the veterans were there "to fight for American democracy." He urged the end of relations with Germany "or any other nation" which persecutes minority groups.

"I was there," County Commander Cohen said, "and I would go again if it would help awaken the American public to the realization that there Is no room In this country for Nazilsm." He termed bunds "blackjack-wielding fomenters of racial hatred" and called for "measures to wipe out subversive groups in New York City." Legion to Fight 'Isms' County Commander Thomas F. Dugan of the American Legion, another speaker, asserted that "we will drive all 'isms' from our country In time, but by due process of law," and urged legislation to bar Communists from public office.

Grigat, leader of the Sons and Daughters of Liberty, an anti-Nazi organization; Harry Schaffer of Pittsburgh, national commander of the Jewish War Veterans; Mrs. Mathilda Burling, president of the American Gold Star Mothers, and Maxwell Cohen, regional vice commander of the Jewish War Veterans in Massachusetts.

Mathias, who won a Distinguished Service Cross, also spoke at the Manhattan convention. He said that he and others at the bund meeting wore their veterans' insignia. He added that when he asked the question which started the riot he had no Intention of fomenting disorder. Representative Bruce Barton, speaking at the Manhattan gathering, denied there was a Jewish problem in the United States. He was introduced as a likely Presidential candidate.

"The only problem facing the United States today," he declared, "is an American problem, and that concerns Catholics, Protestants and Jews equally."
