The Philadelphia Federation of Churches at its regular meeting yesterday approved action taken by its secretary, the Rev. Dr. E. A. E. Palmquist, in refusing to join in the sponsorship of a meeting arranged by the Non-sectarian anti-Nazi League in the interest of the boycott.
The meeting is scheduled to take place in the Metropolitan Opera House Wednesday evening with Samuel Untermyer, president of the League, as principal speaker.
The State Federation of Labor, the Central Labor Union of Philadelphia, the American Legion and the Jewish War Veterans, joined in sponsoring the meeting. The purpose of the meeting is to express disapproval of the Hitler regime in Germany.
The Church Federation in an official statement said: “We do not feel that it is the place of a church organization to support the boycott of German goods.”
