narrow margin of victory in the

Quayle told an institute con-
vened here by the National Con-
ference of Christians and jewS.
Quayle, vice-president of Louis
Harris & Associates, the firm
that conducted the private polls
for President Kennedy during
the 1960 campaign, said that
but later fell solidly behind him
"because he was a Catholic and
deserved support of a minority
group, even though another mi-
nority."
It was stressed that both Cath-
olic and Protestant support of
Kennedy dropped in the last
weeks, of the campaign and "Ile
may have been saved by the in-
crease in the Jewish vote."

French Politician
Convicted of Racism
LIMOGES, France, (JTA) —
French rightist Pierre Poujade
was fined 200,000 francs
($40,000) by the Limoges Court,
being convicted of incite-
ment to racial hatred in con-
nection with the publication of
two anti-Semitic articles in his
periodical, "French Fraternity."
A similar fine was imposed on
the director of the publication.
It was the first such sentence
for anti-Semitic propaganda
and for the fascist leader.
Charges against Poujade had
been filed by the MRAP, the
Movement Against Anti-Semi-
tism and for Peace, and the
Jewish War Veterans of France.
The two organizations were
awarded token damages.
