    Newton Withdraws from ADL Program

    By Mark Navin

    NEWTON, Mass - September 18, 2007 - The City of Newton is the latest
    place to withdraw from an Anti Defamation League program over it's
    position on the Armenian genocide.

    Mayor David Cohen decided to withdraw the city from the "No Place For
    Hate" program after the ADL refused to call for a congressional
    resolution condemning the killing of Armenians in the early part of
    last century.

    Newton, which Mayor Cohen says has the largest Jewish population in
    the state, joins Belmont and Watertown in withdrawing from the ADL
    program.
