The National Community Relations Advisory Council, at a meeting with representatives of the American Association of English-Jewish Newspapers, considered the charges made by the English-Jewish publishers and editors that a group of publications have resorted to unethical practices in the solicitation of advertisements. Arriving unanimously at the view that this matter falls within the jurisdiction of N.C.R.A.C. and should not be aired in public courts, N.C.R.A.C. issued the following statement:
“In the interests of the total Jewish community, the National Community Relations Advisory Council has taken cognizance of the issue of the alleged unethical practice by Jewish publications in the securing of advertisements. On Thursday, August 24, a committee of the N.C.R.A.C. met with representatives of the American Association of English-Jewish Newspapers and at an early date will similarly confer with officials of publications concerned with this problem.”
