3,000 Communities in U. S.
Set Up Units to Prepare
Goodwill Program

NEW YORK — Three thousand
American communities have set
up committees to work on a pro-
gram of education in group re-
lations and for interfaith under-
standing and goodwill, according
to the 1943 report of the President
of the National Conference of
Christians and Jews, Dr. Everett
R. Clinchy made public this week.
The report also tells of a pro-
gram for the U. S. armed forces
in which Conference film was
shown at 116 additional training
centers and 2,500,000 pieces of
literature were made available
through Protestant, Catholic and
Jewish chaplains in the Army and
Navy.
"Wartime anti-Semitism," the
report says, "has been evident
in various parts of the country.
While more cautious, than at
times in the past, more circum-
spect, nevertheless anti-Jewish
prejudice has been exhibited in
new and wider circles. Wartime
anti-Catholisism has registered
suspicions as to the role of the
Vatican in the war in protecting
Catholic interests.
"Against the sporadic out-
breaks, against the whispering
