State officials this week
seemed determined to get to
the bottom of a point system
employed by real estate dealers
in Grosse Pointe to bar "certain
undesirables" from residence in
that suburban area.
In daily hearings before At-
torney General Paul L. Adams
and Corporation and Security
Commissioner Lawrence Gubow,
it was revealed that a Jew wish-
ing residence in Grosse Pointe
must register 85 points in a
questionnaire, while others need
only 50 points.
Other groups vary from 55 to
65 points, while none are regis-
tered for either Negroes or
Orientals.
According to Paul Maxon,
secretary to the Grosse Pointe
Brokers Association, which is
accused of adopting the point
system, there is a special cate-
gory for Jewish buyers.
Maxon assured, however, that
a Jew like Einstein or even a
Negro like Ralph Bunche
would have little difficulty ob-
taining a home in the Pointe
because they have achieved
"eminence."
Other Jews, he indicated, are
rated on their. names. If the
name is Feingold, they would
rate no points. If it was Ameri-
canized to Smith, the family
would score two points each for
husband and wife.
Club membership also was
deemed important, and a Jew
could accumulate as much as 14
points in this category if he be-
longed to a non-Jewish club.
Here; his acceptance by Gen-
tiles is already proven.
The state hearings will con-
tinue while some 25 people in-
volved in . the point system are

General's staff.

is open to fourth year students
and graduates, and extends over
one year. The course has been
launched in view of the acute
shortage of high school teach-
ers, especially in the field of
science, and will be conducted
in cooperation with the Minis-
try of Education, which has
shown a keen interest in the
project and is financing part of
the budget.
