Washington, D. G. - More than

examine moral and religious prin-
ciples on which racial justice is
based, January 14-17, at the Edge
water Beach Hotel in Chicago.
The National Conference on Re-
ligion and Race has as its central
theme the concept that men, united
through religious love, can reach
goals unattainable by legal and
economic pressures alone.
The conference, called by the
major faiths in the United States,
commentaries the centennial OF
Lincoln's signing the emancipation
proclamation.

John F. Cronin, SIS, assistant di.
rector of the Social Action De

fare Conference, has a meeting
of such significance been held
under joint sponsorship of agencies
of NCWC, the National Council
of Churches and the Synagogue
Council of America"
Francis Cardinal Spellman,
Archbishop of New York, has said
that "the dedication and spirit of
brotherly love with which the re-
ligious denominations undertake
their work in the conference are
the best guarantees for success in
improving race relations through
out the world"
Rev. Gene Wesley Marshall,
Methodist minister, is working on
conference plans along with the
staff Of the National Catholic Con-
