Drew, accused Nazi sympathizer, dismissed from the New York Police Department. In January 1944, the Federation convened a citywide conference of community and union leaders, and representatives of racial and religious groups, to work out a program to stop anti-Semitic violence, vandalism and defamation.

Also included are a 170-page report by police investigation commissioner William Herlands to Mayor LaGuardia on \"Anti-American and Anti-Semitic Vandalism\" (1944), and a correspondence file between Marshall and members of the Mayor's Committee on Unity (1945).</p>"}
