of Mr. Nixon to indicate in any
way that he is-anti-Semitic. We
believe these rumors to be a
recurrence of false charges
made during the 1952 campaign
and are as untrue today as they
were then."
"Indeed, we believe the Amer-
ican people fortunate in that
all four major candidates—
Dwight D. Eisenhower, Adlai E.
Stevenson, Mr. Nixon and Estes
Kefauver—are completely free
of religious bias," Mr. Schultz
said.
Declaring the LeagUe is "an
educational organization devot-
ed to intergroup understanding
and completely non - political,"

David Sislin is chairman of
the nominating committee, ap-
pointed by Morris Lieberman, Mr. Schultz said the agency "re-

chairman of the board of trus-
tees, and will present the slate

of nominees to the assembly.

Farband City Committee, the

Schaver auditorium of the Labor
Zionist Institute.
The program, dedicated to the
memory of William Gayman,
who served prominently in both
societies, will be conducted by
Dan Frohman, Reservations may
be made with the LZ Institute.

gretted the need to speak out
at this time lest our statement
be construed as favoring one
candidate against another. It is
not an endorsement o f Mr.
Nixon. Our responsibility over
44 years of public service has
been to expose bigotry and its
fomentors but at the same time

time to denounce charges of
bigotry that are false."
Mr. Schultz ,said his statement
was decided on by the League's
National Executive Committee,
comprised of both Democrats
and Republicans, after it studied
reports from its 27 regional of-
fices about the rumors.

Presidential campaign to make
the propaganda impact that they

major candidate.
The target of these rumors
has been Vice-President Rich-
ard Nixon, said Henry Edward
Schultz, national chairman of
the Anti-Defamation League of
Bnai Brith, who added that
"there is nothing in the record
