"While much haa been acliieved in eliminating racial and religious bigotry in our .country, we know that much remains to be done. To mention but a few;
"The Increased 'slush' fund of the Arab propagandists can only mean an Increased effort on their part to discredit American Jewry OB the first atep In a MaohlaveUlan attempt to clinilnate larael.
"If the bigotry leveled against Presidential candidates in 1SS3 is :Rn'tndleiaUon o< what'la-to Iw «6- pected In 19&6,' we can anticipate the vile forma of racial and relig¬ ious innaendos and smears this coming year.
"No one could be more qualified to give us on overall view of the progreaa mode and the problems faced by the American Jewiah community than Arnold Foratcr, who partlclpatea in the day to day deciaiona of the League.
"Aa dlrec'or of the ADL's fact¬ finding prr ram, he is one of the few  men America who  has  a
true perad tlve of the power and personality of anti-Semitism. Ar¬ nold Forster has made the fight against these Inaldioua influences a life-long project Throughout his 16 years of service with the Antl Defamation League, he haa main¬ tained a careful acruttny of hate breedera, documenting and expos¬ ing thoae un-American groups and ' Individuals wbo are constantly sowing hatred and bigotry In A' merlcan life.
