Republican National Committees this week pledged their parties
Appointment of Hyman Alt-
to keep the election campaign free of racial and religious contro-
versy and denounced the injection of such issues. ,Both party man as chairman of the Yiddish
Mailers expressed their ablibrrence of disqualifications and hatreds radio committee for the 1944
based upon differences in race or religion.
Declaring that :the 1944 national election "some day will be
looked upon as one of the greatest historical measures of the hardi-
hood and integrity of our democratic' way of life," Democratic
Chairman Robert E. Hannegan said:
"The election itself, and the campaign that precedes it, must be
a consistently democratic performance. It must be kept free of the
Very taint, we are engaging in. war to remove from the world.
This meas that racial and religious differences, and the hatreds
which our fascist enemies have erected upon them, can be given
no expression among us."
Republican National Chairman Herbert Brownell Jr. said:
"Our political system can justify itself only if we are ever
alert against any doctrine or practice which seeks to exploit differ-
ences of race or religion. Consistent with this fundamental thought
are the forthright statements of Governor Dewey in denunciation
;
of political adventurers who, in :the hope of personal aggrandize-
ment, have tried to stir up religious and racial bigotry in its various
fornis. The party platform takes 'a vigorous position pledging itself
to uncompromising battle against intolerance and discrimination."
Both statements were secured by the National Conference of
Christians and Jews, an agency which for 17 years has worked to
promote better intergroup relations and respect for the dignities
and rights of all groups of the ..American people.
