Professional anti-Semites gathered here today for a two-day conference, starting tomorrow, for the purpose of initiating a nationwide campaign “to abolish the United Nations.” Invitations to the conference were issued by Gerald L.K. Smith, leader of the anti-Jewish “Christian Nationalist Crusade.”

The announcement of the conference said that the blue-and-white United Nations flag was the U.N.’s way of “aping the Jew flag of Palestine.” It charged that Jews and Zionists control the United Nations for “subversive” purposes and made other fantastic allegations. The meeting will take place in the Native Sons’ Auditorrium here.
