Maimonides Auxiliary Gives $3,000
To Hadassah's Jerusalem Hospital

Friday, May 27, 1955

State Adopts
Weak FEPC

Admittedly w e a k , watered-
down and diluted, the Fair Em-
ployment Practices Law passed
both Houses of the State Legis-
lature Tuesday.
But despite its weaknesses, the
law is called "history-making."
Failure • to impose penalties
weakens the measure.

Mrs. LOUIS SHIOVITZ, president of Maimonides Medical
Auxiliary (second from right) presents check for $3,000 to Mrs.
PHILIP LIPSON, chairman of the medical center committee, to
be transmitted to the Hadassah-Hebrew University Medical
Center in Jerusalem as its pledge to the. $15,000 clinical research
laboratory. Watching are Mrs. LEO ORECKLIN (left), coordinator
of the annual luncheon through which funds were raised, and
Mrs. `CHARLES GITLIN (right), chairman of the projects com-
mittee. In addition to this grant, the Maimonides Auxiliary has
provided handicapped Israelis with artificial limbs, granted schol-
arships to needy medical, students, contributed to a lecture room
at Sinai Hospital and donated sums to numerous funds and insti-
tutions.

NEW YORK, (JTA)—A me-
morial meeting in honor of Dr.
Albert Einstein, which was to
have been held in Carnegie Hall,
I was postponed following the
(withdrawal of a number of
I prominent individuals and
groups either associated with it
or listed as speakers. The new
date set for the memorial is June
26.
Bernard M. Baruch, listed as a
I speaker, had never consented to
attend, he said. Daniel Gutman,
counsel to Gov. Averill Harri-
man, declared he had never
agreed to act as chairman of the
meeting, as had been advertised,
but Only to introduce speakers.
Admiral Lewis Strauss, chairman
of the Atomic Energy Commis-
I sion, in a telegram, withdrew as
a speaker because of the pres-
sure of work.
The Rev. Dr. Henry A. Atkin-
son, general secretary of the
Church Peace Union, said that

SAUL BERCH is a name that
has become so closely linked
with automobiles that a deal
made through
him is -like a
guarantee of a
perfect deal
. And all
who have pur-
chased Pon-
tia cs through

that -to deal

Berch means to be assured of
excellent service on the car

he would not participate "unless
there is a whole new deal," while
Sidney O. Raphael, president of
the Inte5faith Movement, said
his grortp's board of directors
had decided. to withdraw because
of "unexplained things."
So far as could be ascertained,
the sole remaining sponsor of
the memorial is the American
Jewish Literary Foundation of
which Dr. Harry Cohen is chair-
man. Dr. Cohen was elected
chairman of the memorial meet-,
ing Saturday.
Ann o u n c ing the postpone-.
ment, Dr. Cohen said it was due
to "attacks of certain groups
who, by their violation of Dr.
Einstein's way of life, have made
it unwise for this tribute to be
held on the date originally sched-
uled." It was understood that a
representative of the Einstein
estate had expressed dissatisfac-
tion with "so-called memorial
meetings of this type."
