Address by Col. Moffat
Addressing the gathering on
Monday, Col. S. A. Moffat of
New York explained that there
are 125 Round Table organizations
throughout the country in which
Christians and Jews participate
as affiliates of the National Con-
ference of Christians and Jews.
Urging deep interest in the
newly-formed council, Col. Moffat
pointed out that "there are 800
organizations in the Unites! States
whose policy and program is just
opposite of ours."
"It is up to religion in America
to organize for the defense of de-
mocracy," Col. Moffat said, lie
declared that these Round Tables
emphasize the need of democracy
and religion uniting in a com-
mon effort to uphold the ideals
upon which our nation was
founded.

port.
The report noted a decrease in
anti-Semitism during the year
and attributed this trend in part
to the fact that "never b..fore

Sunday School teachers, clergy -
men and lay leaders been as de -
to uproot anti-Semitis m
from the Christian heritage as
now."
