Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled!
Either we must allow the human race to exterminate itself, or we must forgo certain liberties which are very dear to us, more especially the liberty to kill foreigners whenever we feel so disposed. - Bertrand Russell

Cyrus Adler and Joseph Proskauer showed clear leanings against the anti-Nazi boycott, but once Jacob Sunderling wanted to speak the other side of pro boycott the meeting was instantly shutdown. This was done under the guise of keeping the Joint Distribution Committee a neutral platform.
