The monster demonstration at Madison Square Garden decided on at a conference held last Sunday under the auspices of the American Jewish Congress, is to be held on March 27th. At the same time, protests against the Nazi persecution on German Jewry will be voiced throughout the country.

The resolution drafted at the Conference, also called upon all Americans to join in the nation-wide protest. It declares, “Americans who believe in the brotherhood of man, we invite to join with us in a demonstration of American faith in the sacredness of human rights, and the sanctity of human fellowship.”

It is probable that Bishop Manning and former Governor Alfred E. Smith will speak at the meeting at the Madison Square Garden. In addition, if congressional duties permit, Speaker Henry P. Rainey of the House of Representatives and Senators William E. Borah and Royal S. Copeland will address the demonstration.
