Brith Official of Change in Procedure; Separate Card
on Religion to Be Filled After Enrollment

NEW YORK (JPS)—Questions regarding nationality and re-
ligion on application blanks for admittance to New York University,

"no longer will be asked as part of our application procedures,"
Chancellor Harry Woodburn Chase of New York 'University, dis-
closed in a letter to Supreme Court Justice Meier Steinbrink, chair-
man of the board of directors of the Eastern region of the Anti-
Defamation League of Bnai. Brith, made public here.
Chancellor Chase was one of the recipients of a confidential
report sent by Dr. Harlan H. Horrier, secretary of the Council on
Dental Education of the American Dental Association, suggesting
that dental schools install racial quota systems of admissions.
In his letter to Justice Steinbrink, Chancellor Chase said that
"a separate • card, only for. religious data, will be provided which
the student may fill out after he has been admitted on his own
merits."
