After hearing Rev. Everett R. Clinchy, executive director of the National Conference of Jews and Christians, discuss the work of his organization, the executive council of the National Federation of Men’s Clubs of the United Synagogue meeting Sunday at the Jewish Theological Seminary, voted to appoint a committee to work out means of cooperating with the National Conference in the promulgation of good-will and better understanding between Jews and Christians.
A committee was appointed by Theodore Charnas, president of the federation, to cooperate with the National Conference according to a two-point plan devised by the Federation. Cooperation will be established in two respects:
1. The arranging for cooperative enterprises in general welfare activities.
2. The arrangement for seminars to be held throughout the country in which the causes of misunderstanding would be studied in an effort to promote good-will. In these seminars, there would be participation by representatives of the three major faiths and an effort would be made through educational activities to create better understanding.
