A warning against racial and religious intolerance was voiced today on the floor of the House of Representatives by Congressman Arthur G. Klein of New York.

“Whatever our personal proclivities, it must be clear to us that racial and religious bigotries among our citizens transcend the area of personal concern only,” he said. “They become a national menace because they affect our national union and stability.”
