Ancient Davidic Women's League for Israel Opens
City Unearthed Jerusalem School; Pilot for Chain

JERUSALEM, (JTA) — The
remains of a great • city first
built at the end of the reign of
King David or at the start of
that of King Solomon were re-
ported to have been uncovered
near Ein Gev during recent
excavations in the area.
A team of archaeologists,
headed by Prof. Binyamin Ma-
- zar, found the city and reported
that one of the most remarkable
excavation findings was a large
jar bearing the inscription
"leshakya," which Prof. Mazar
interpreted to mean "belonging,
to the wine steward," in Ara-
maic. The importance of the
inscription was understood to
be the fact that it . is ,written
in early Hebrew Phoenician
script and is one of the few
known examples of this script
dating to the ninth century
B.C.E.

Testifies on Job Discrimination

NEW YORK, .(JTA) — Fed-
eral legislative action to elimi-
nate discrimination in jobs cre-
ated by public funds was urged
by the American Jewish Con-
gress at a public hearing held
by a Congressional subcommit-
tee here.
Appearing on behalf of the
American Jewish CongreSs, Will
Maslow, executive director of
the organization, said that dis-
crimination in employment
against Jews is "far less serious"
than anti-Negro job bias but
that there is "continuing evi-
dence of discrimination against
Jews in the employment mar-
ket,"
He cited one recent study
indicating that numerous large
corporations — many of them
holding Federal contracts—"ab-
solutely exclude Jews" from
upper-echelon positions.
Another survey, dealing with
engineers, showed that while
anti-Jewish "barriers" that for-
merly existed in initial employ-
ment as engineers have been
greatly reduced, "discrimination
becomes more prevalent when
promotional and administrative
posts open."
Other studies indicated anti-
Jewish discrimination in the
banking and insurance indus-
tries, the AJC spokesman said.
He told the hearing that in
addition to recommending meas-
ures to strengthen anti-bias ef-
forts in Federal employment

and on government contracts,
the special subcommittee should
also support a Federal fair em-
ployment practices bill that
would outlaw discrimination in
private employment based on
race, color, creed or national
origin.
