MONTREAL, (JTA) — The Legislative Assembly of Quebec unanimously approved a gov- ernment measure to make any discrimination illegal in the hotels, restaurants and camping grounds of the Province of Quebec. The Canadian Jewish Con- gress, which had urged such legislation, sent a congratula- tory telegram to Prime Minister Jean Lesage. In presenting the amend- ment to the existing law, Car- rier Fortin, Minister Without Portfolio in the Quebec cabinet, said that he believed it would serve as an example to other provinces. Asserting that dis- crimination on religious and racial grounds "is not practiced generally in Quebec," he told the legislators that the law was designed "to prevent isolated instances and to ensure that visitors • to the province, espe- cially those who come to the World's Fair, will be received anywhere without incident. We want to affirm the principle that • all people have equal rights here." The original law left a hotel owner the right to refuse a per- son food and lodging if there was "just causes." This provision had been under sharp criticism as being to vague and open to abuse. The amendment reads: "No owner or tenant of a Israel's National Theater Company of 30 Will Tour U. S. Habimah, Israel's national theater, and its oldest repetory group, will come to the United States with a company of 30 for an 18-week visit beginning February, 1964. Negotiations were concluded between the American-Israel Cultural Foundation, which will sponsor the tour as part of its cultural exchange program, and the Little Theater, Inc., which will manage the tour. The plans announced by Sam- uel Rubin, president of the Foundation; and Roger Euster, president of the Little Theater, call for performances in New York City for at least half of the 18-week period and a tour of major cities in the United States for the balance of the visit. The repertory company will perform three plays in Hebrew, one of which will be "The Dybbuk," by S. Ansky, and two contemporary Israeli p 1 a y s. Theaters will be equipped with earphones which will provide simultaneous translation. The Habimah will be the first foreign group to be presented here by the Little Theater, which plans to bring a number of other European repertory companies in the seasons to follow. Performances will be in the Little Theater on West 44th Street, once an intimate experi- mental theater built in 1913, and recently a television thea- ter. The building will be re- stored for its original purpose this summer. Habimah, Hebrew for "the altar," was founded by Nachum Zemach in Moscow, in the midst of the Russian revolution, as a Hebrew theater. Members were coached by Stanislaysky and directed by Vachtangoff, a dis- ciple of his. After eight years, the company arriving in Pales- tine in 1928 where they soon became established as the na- tional theater. Their repertorire consisted of plays adapted from Yiddish classics by Eastern European writers. A few mem- bers of the original company are still with the group. hotel, restaurant, or camping ground shall directly or through his agent or a third party, re- fuse to provide any person or class of persons with lodging, food or any other service avail- able to the public in the estab- lishment, or discriminate against any person or class of persons with respect to lodging, food or any other service avail- able to the public in the estab- lishment, because of the race, creed, color, nationality, an- cestry or place of origin of such person or class of persons." Under the amended act, any person found guilty of a viola- tion will be liable to a fine of $20 to $100 for each offense and, in the event-of subsequent offense within two years, to a fine of from $50 to $200. Writ- ten authorization by the Minis- ter of Tourism, Fish and Game is required for prosecution. The Canadian Jewish Con- gress in commenting on the amendments said that while the Minister was correct in saying that such cases of bias were not frequent, "anyone with any ex- perience in these matters will attest to the fact that there are a sufficient number to warrant the introduction of the bill." nity has a "priority role" in helping to establish "some genuine hum an communica- tions" between the white and Negro communities, Bnai Brith President Label A. Katz said. He told the centennial conven- tion of Bnai Brith District 4 that Negroes and white "are really not talking to or under- standing each other," thereby adding to racial tension and mistrust. Katz, a southerner and native of New Orleans, said the ab- sence of real communications based on "First-hand and hard- headed knowledge of how the other group thinks, lives and acts, leads to vague generaliza- tions and confused images that give root to misunderstandings and hostility. The Jewish com- munity," he added, "needs to be sensitive to the fact that the 1. FOR THE HARVARD OF HEBREW ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS is weary of promises. It wants performance." Urging support of civil rights proposals before Congress, Katz said that the intensity of the protest marches and demonstra- tions "should be a prod to Capital Hill to overcome its legislative anachronisms and a prod to the white community to accelerate efforts for racial equality.
