CHICAGO A four-day con-
ference, Oct. 27-30, dealing with
measures to combat prejudice
and to foster interfaith under-
standing, attended by specialists
in the field from over the nation,
marked the annual meetings of
the National Commission of Anti-
Defamation League of Bnai Brith
and the national staff conference
of ADL regional office directors
and headquarters staff members.
A highlight of the commission
deliberations was a keynote ad-
dress by Sigmund Livingston of
Chicago, founder and chairman
of the ADL, who announced the
formation of a "Christian Friends
of the Anti-Defamation League"
Committee, composed of Chris-
tian clergymen. Almost 1,000
clergymen have been enlisted in
this movement, who in turn will
use their prestige and facilities
to correct misconceptions about
the Jews and Judaism through
the spoken and written word.
