Dr. Shmarya Kleinman, president of the Detroit Jewish Community Council, issued a bulletin to all Council constituent organizations, exposing the deceptive “peace” maneuvers of the Civil Rights Congress of Michigan and the Stockholm “peace” petition.

The Council statement warns Jewish groups against affiliation with or support of the Civil Rights Congress, pointing out that it is listed on the U.S. Attorney-General’s “subversive list.” It also points out that the “Stockholm peace petition” has been shown to be of Communist origin.
