Dr. Hauscr is speaking of discrimination against minorities. In this country said that much of what has been callad "anti-Semitism" is not anti-Semitism at alt. The use of this tsnn to describe certain specific types of prejudice that Jews have faced In America Is "unwarranted and unfounded," he said. He conceded that Jews perhaps occupy a csrtnln special place as scapegoats, but contended that the pattern of prejudice aimed a I Jews is the same as that aimed by the "oldsters" in American communities against all new comers.
