"Short of this, the Council, in
my opinion, has no further rea-
son for being. For a long time,
I have been convinced that the
policy of the Council has been
negative and at times even de-

constructive, and with such a
policy I cannot be in sympathy.

THREAT TO JEWRY
"In these crucial times, in-

no less a threat to the surviv

this truth and only thus can we
justify our loyalty as Americans
