NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Written by three Instructors here and sponsored by a group which includes three other members of the Faculty, a pamphlet called "Anti-Semitism, a Threat to Democracy" has recently appeared.

The authors are Daniel J. Boorstin '34, instructor in History and Literature, George Mayberry, instructor in English, and John B. Rackliffe '34, instructor in English. Among the sponsors are David Wight Prall, professor of Philosophy; Hassler Whitney, assistant professor of Mathematics; and Ernest J. Simmons, assistant professor of English.

Strike At Father Coughlin

The pamphlet aims its chief thrusts at Father Charles Coughlin for his radio attacks on the Jewish race. It traces the history of the anti-Semitic movement through the Middle Ages, pre-revolutionary Russia, and Nazi Germany, and concludes with a chapter on "How to Combat Anti-Semitism."

In line with this pamphlet was a motion introduced by Cambridge Councilman Michael Sullivan that University authorities investigate the placards placed on House bulletin boards last week deriding the fall of the Spanish "Reds".
