He charged that hostility and
prejudice spread in New York

City after the teacher's strike.

He accused the Jewish-led,
largely Jewish United Federation
of Teachers of helping to "in-
fect and even poison the at-

mosphere with exaggerated back-
lash" by duplicating and dis-
tributing thousands of copies
of an anti-Semitic flyer put out
by some black extremists.
"Anti-Semitism must be con-
demned and fought whatever it
appears," Rabbi Prinz said. "But
let us place it in its limited con-
text and perspective."
Another speaker, Rabbi Henry
Siegman, executive vice president
of the Synagogue Council of Ameri-
ca, said it was not true that black
anti-Semitism was "just another
variety of anti-white racism" but
rather is "a racist disease that in
the past brought deadly effects to
the Jews."
He, Rabbi Prinz and Mrs.
Charles Snitow, president of the
AJCongress' Women's Division.

traditional support of civil rights
