Jewish Congress Joins
NAACP in Labor Action
On Rental Discrimination

NEW YORK—The National As-
sociation for the Advancement
of Colored People and the Amer-
ican Jewish Congress have filed
a brief with Supreme Court Jus-
tice Felix C. Benvenga in New
York County. asking that the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Com-
pany and Stuyvesant Town Cor-
poration be enjoined from con-
tinuing its discriminatory rental
practices in its tax-exempt Stuy-
vesant Town development.
The plaintiffs in the action are
three Negro war veterans: Joseph
Dorsey. Monroe Dowling, and
Calvin Harper. who alleged that
they had applied for apartments
in Stuyvesant Town but, in view
of the latter's announced policy
of discrimination, would be re-
jected. Contending that public
aid had made the $90,000,000
project possible. the brief argues
that a constitutional . obligation
rests upon the defendants to ex-
tend equal protection of he law
to all applicants.
