That credit must be divided between 1) the uncoordinated efforts of millions of individual shoppers, and 2) the organized activity that stems chiefly from two groups: the Joint Boycott Council (of the American Jewish Congress and Jewish Labor Committee) and the American Boycott Against Aggressor Nations (onetime Committee for a Boycott Against Japanese Aggression...
...General Shoe s success story contains no compromise with Founder Jarman's original high principles. Nevertheless, James Franklin Jarman left an estate of $3,500,000 when he died last August. Two-thirds of his money went to the Jarman Foundation, whose objectives are aiding Bible institutes, Fundamentalist orphanages and missionaries.
