Samuel Untermyer, president of the Non-Sectarian Anti-Nazi League, has invited American organizations to join in sending a delegation to the World Rally against Racism and Anti-Semitism to be held in Paris Sept. 10 under the auspices of the International Federation of Leagues against Racism and Anti-Semitism, it was announced today.

The object of the rally is “to fight by every means of reason and logic against the racial theories that threaten to contaminate these countries which have so far not fallen victims to authoritarian regimes.” Jewish, Christian, non-sectarian and Negro organizations are among those invited to participate. The Anti-Nazi League is the American affiliate of the federation.
