NEW YORK (WNS). — The
initial step toward a conference
symbolizing the collective desire
of religious and educational lead- 0
ers to deal with inter-group rela-
tions after the war was taken
here last week at the semi-annual
meeting of the trustees of the
National Conference of Christians
and Jews.
The report recommending the
calling of the conference was
made by George N. Shuster, pres-
ident of Hunter College, Rabbi
Israel Goldstein, president of the
Synagogue Council of America,
and Dr. Henry S. Leiper, secre-
tary of the World Council of
Churches.
Dr. Arthur H. Compton of the
University of Chicago, Nobel

prize winner and one of the
chairmen of the National Con-
ference of Christians and Jews, y-
=
predicted that a world meeting
of national organizations of
Christians and Jews would be
beneficial and lasting.
Dr. Everett R. Clinchey, presi-
dent of the Conference, submit-
ted a report in which he stressed
that a general improvement in
religious relations had taken
place despite "some evidence of
retrogression in certain locali-
ties." He attributed anti-denomin-
ational sentiment to four causes:
latent prejudices in all groups,
unethical • or ill-mannered beha-
vior by conspicuous members of
each group, Nazi indoctrination
and the abrogation of normal re-
straint and decencies that accom- a -
pany every calamity.

ish Community Center, starting

ing under the chairmanship of
R. C. A. President Rabbi William
Drazin of Toronto, will discuss a
