Prevent Spread of Violence,
Round Table Asks Detroiters
In an appeal issued by Judge
John P. Scallen, Walker L.
Cisler and Nate S. Shapero,
Catholic, Protestant and Jewish
co-chairmen of the Detroit
Round Table of the National
Conference of Christians and
Jews, and Robert M. Frehse,
executive seer et a r y of the
Round Table, this community
is asked to join in efforts to
prevent hate and violence and
to work • together for fair play.
The statement adopted by the
board of Round Table reads:
"The board of directors of
the Detroit Round Table of
Catholics, Jews and Protestants
calls upon all citizens to pre-
vent the spread of hate and
violence which disfigure our
society. Let us all counteract
discord, suspicion and animosity
with understanding and good
will. Hate breeds more hate:
violence leads to more violence.
So also, good will creates more
good will.
"There are those who would
set faith against faith, race
against race, class against class.
There are those who would
deny constitutional rights to
some citizens.
"Our American democracy is
seriously damaged by mer-
chants of hate. It is damaged
by unthinking citizens who dis-
tribute malicious attacks on
fellow citizens. Those who be-
little, ridicule or harass any
minority group do serious harm
to us all.
"Especially in these critical
days when we need unity, let
us all rededicate ourselves to
the principles of brotherhood,
of fair play, of American
democracy.
"Our major religious groups
are clear in their conviction
that there must be equal op-
portunities for all. Let us work
together that there shall be fair
play, equal opportunities for all
and increased understanding
and amity."
In a supplementary state-
ment, Dr. Frehse said:
"There is a sharp i ncrease in
the activity of hate groups in
the area. The successes in the
struggle for civil rights seems
to have frightened the bigots
who now exert greater effort to
stir up hatred. Blame must be
placed: scapegoats must be
found: vile plots by religious
groups must be 'exposed.' We
must continue to educate so
that the appeals of extremists
will not be effective. We must
support all efforts which bring
people together to work on the
common problems of democ-
racy."
