Round Table Report Views
Its Fight on Anti-Semitism

The Detroit Round Table of
Catholics, Jews and Protestants,
Michigan Regional Office of the
National Conference of Chris-
tians and Jews, has made pub-
lic the annual report of the pres-
ident of the Conference, Dr. Ev-
erett R. Clinchy.
Co-chairmen of the Detroit
Round Table are Edgar A. Guest,
well known poet, Federal Judge
Ernest A. O'Brien, and Henry
Wineman, business leader a n d
philanthropist. The Rev. Joseph
Q. Mayne is executive secretary.
"Americans can put an end to
anti-Semitism, and the anti-
Christianism to which it leads, in
a single generation," states Dr.
Clinchy.
Continuous Study
The medical approach to any
pathological problem is the way
to fight prejudice, Dr. Clinchy
said. The steps are:
1. Continuous study of all
the facts, and research on all
probable hypotheses.
. 2. Therapeutic a c ti o n to
overcome the immediate path-
ological condition.
3. Hygiene to prevent the
disease.
Dr. Clinchy believes that 10 to
12 million dollars could be spent
in scientific research in experi-
mentation, in dealing directly
with critical cases, and in fur-
thering "grass roots" education.
He pointed out that as the In-
fantile P a r a l y s is Foundation
"farms out" research projects to
medical schools and competent
individual scientists, the National
Conference of Christians and
Jews should make available to
every graduate school and uni-
versity funds for studies and ex-
perimentation in intergroup re-
lations.
Include Trouble Areas
The range of these researches
can include actual community
trouble areas and experimental
programs in typical neighbor-
hoods. Especially important is the
testing of materials and methods
used in intercultural work.
The present situation is appall-
ing, says Dr. Clinchy. He cited
the fact that public opinion polls
show there are up to 13 per cent
of the people in the U. S. who
are willing to join hate organiza-
tions against Jews, Catholics, and
Negroes.
Dr. Clinchy compared the use
of 600 scientists to produce the
atomic bomb with the possibility
of using 600 scientists to discover
the means to control intergroup
hate. He said that if Americans
really want to inaugurate a new

era in human relations, the y
must summon the scientists, the
educators, the public leaders and
the churchmen to produce a new
weapon—"a weapon of the spirit
and of the mind."
In reviewing the activities of
the National Conference for the
past year, Dr. Clinchy told how
1,068,000 men and women in the
armed forces were reached by
National Conference teams of
priest-minister-rabbi. These trios
have reached in four years three-
quarters of the American men
and women in World War II, Dr.
Clinchy estimated.
Develop Own Plans
Recalling that the "Springfield
Plan" to teach intergroup democ-
racy was initiated at the Wil-
liamstown Institute of Human
Relations five years ago, Dr.
Clinchy said that today school
systems all across the continent
are developing their own "Amer-
ican Plans." The American Coun-
cil on Education is co-operating
in this extension work with the
National Conference.
The immediate goal of the Na-
tional Conference, said Dr. Clin-
chy, is a full-time office in every
one of the 94 cities of more than
100,000 population. The National
Conference now has offices in 54
cities.
The report was made to the
board of directors and its co-
chairmen, former Ambassador
Carlton J. H. Hayes, Chancellor
Arthur H. Compton of Washing-
ton University, and Roger W.
Straus, president of the Ameri-
can Smelting and refining Co.
The National Conference was
founded in 1928 by Charles Evans
Hughes and Newton D. Baker.

Jewish Survivors in Warsaw
The 3,000 surviving Jews in
Warsaw are listed in a brochure
issued in printed form by the
World Jewish Congress. Before
the war the city had a Jewish
population of 350,000.
