Law and Education Conceded Top Priority in Fighting Discrimination ATLANTIC CITY, (JTA) —Law and educational activities are both necessary in the promo- tion of equality of rights and op- portunities for all, regardless, of race, religon, national origin or ancestry, it was established at a conference of 75 social scientists, lawyers and Jewish community leaders held here under the auspices of the National Com- munity Relations Advisory Council. Irving Kane, NCRAC leader, said, "At one time, recourse to law was contrasted with educa- tion as an instrument of social change. It is now generally rec- ognized that they are not only compatible, but actually are complementary approaches." Bernard H. Trager, NCRAC chairman, said that the purpose of the conference was to develop recommendations that would stand as guides to the national and local Jewish community re- j lations agencies and coordinate' the work of the agencies. Will Maslow, national director of the Commission on Law and Social Action of the American Jewish ; Congress, enumerated as some "fruits of the legal technique:" 1. Fair employment practice laws in twelve states and more than 30 cities. 2. Fair - education- al practice laws in three states. 3. Enforcement of many dead- letter civil rights laws- by ad- against discrimination. 4. Pro- hibition of discrimination in public or quasi-public housing projects in many states. 5. Out- lawing of segregated public edu- cation by the Supreme Court. 6. Prohibition of legal enforce- ment of restrictive real estate covenants. 7. Protection of rights of free speech, publication and assembly. - Both legislative campaigns and ligations may yeild indirect, as well as direct gains, Mr. Mas- low declared, in the form of greater public understanding and changed attitudes. "Litiga- tion," he said, "can also be an educational device. The effort to persuade the Federal Com- munications Commission to re- voke the radio licences of George A. Richards, who in- structed his news commentators to slant radio broadcasts against Jews, did not succeed, but the ensuing publicity sensitized the entire broadcasting industry to its obligations and the dangers ! in nnot fulfilling them." Dr. Isidor Chein, professor of psychology at New York Uni- , versity, gave "A Social Scien- tists View of the Use of Law and Legislation for the Advance- ment of Community Relations Objectives." Dr. Chein empha- sized the impact of law on the psychology of the individual. He pointed out that laws on civil rights reflect ideals that are held by all Americans, and that even bigots may be influenced by them to change their atti- tudes. He urged that more re- search be done on the effect of ; law and legal actions on the actual status of minority groups and on changes in attitudes. DETROIT JEWISH NEWS-5 Friday, December 24, 1954 UN Opens TB Center In Jaffa, Israel GENEVA, (JTA)—The World, Health Organization, United Na- tions affiliate, opened a new tuberculosis center in Jaffa. Heading the project, designed to aid Israel's fight against the dread disease through treatment and training of medical person- nel, will be Dr. H. Papanikilaou, Greek medical consultant to WHO, and Miss M. Moltke, for- ' mer director of the Copenhagen Central Dispensary. They will be aided by a staff of 15 doctors, 15 nurses.and an- other 15 social workers and lab- oratory technicians. Sanatorium facilities will be available for medical treatment, and a train- ing program for local health personnel will be instituted. A WHO report on Israel states that the Jewish State has a low TB death rate-10.5 per 100,000 —with good sanatoria and effec- tive curative measures. The re- I port adds that despite the low death rate "the actual occur- rence" of the disease is "quite high," and the country does not have adequate facilities for pre- ventative measures.

The rep- tile is believed to have been some 30 inches long and 30 inches wide, The Institute announcement said that this is one of the oldest animal remains ever found in the world and the first of its kind, which belongs in the genus "psephosaurus." Since it is the first of its species found, the In- stitute will name it "psephosaur- us negevensis" in honor of the site where it was unearthed. The specimen was found in stone strata of the Triassic period, which is the label given to a period extending back a quarter of billion years. The rib of a reptile was found over a year ago and was sent to Sweden's Royal Geological In- stitute for restoration and was recently returned to Israel. The latest find was made by a team directed by Dr. F. Brotzen, a Swedish geologist assigned to Israel by the United Nations Technical Assistance Adminis- tration and Prof. E. Haas of the Hebrew University.
