JWV Urges Rockefeller
to Sign Group Libel Bill

NEW YORK (JTA)—Gov. Nel-
son A. Rockefeller was urged by
the Jewish War Veterans of New
York State to sign into law the
group libel bill which has been
passed in both houses of the state
legislature.
The bill, introduced by Sen.
Irwin R. Brownstein of Brooklyn,
was sponsored by the JWV. The
American Jewish Committee, the
Anti-Defamation League of Bnai
Brith and other major Jewish or-
ganizations are opposed to the bill
and have asked the governor to
veto it on the ground that the
vague language of the bill may
render it open to the charge that
it violates due process of law.
New York State JWV Comman-
der Maurice Gherman, in his let-
ter to Gov. Rockefeller, said that
the governor's failure to sign the
bill would be misconstrued by
hate-mongers as a victory for them.
The JWV commander commend-
ed the state legislature for amend-
ing the penal code outlawing the
dissemination, publishing, exhibit-
Mg or uttering false and defama-
tory matter in respect to any ra-
cial, religious or ethnic group.

Young Israel Plans Apartments
for Elderly, Synagogn e Downtown

The Jewish senior citizens of
Detroit will have apartments in a
unique development project an-
nounced this week by the Young
Israel Council of Metropolitan De-
troit.
Independence Hall, a 264-unit
high rise project in the Elmwood
Park downtown area, will place
emphasis on independence for the
elderly who do not wish to live in

a home for the aged but who can-
not afford high rent in a "Jewish
neighborhood."
Rabbi Samuel H. Prero, presi-
dent of the Young Israel Council,
said construction hinges on final
approval of a federal loan, now
being studied by the Housing and
Home Finance Agency. A decision
was promised in some three
months, Rabbi Prero said. "The
city is willing," he added.
Part of the area is now occupied

by the Lafayette Avenue Cemetery,
owned by Temple Beth El and at

114 years the oldest Jewish ceme-
tery in Detroit. Reinterment will
be necessary before the Young Is-
rael project gets under way, but
the temple has acquired another
parcel of ground adjacent to the
cemetery for such a purpose.
Although approval of a federal
loan requires that the development
project be open on a nonsectarian
basis, Rabbi Prero estimates 30
to 50 per cent of its residents will
be Jewish.
To encourage Jewish elderly to
live there, a synagogue has been
planned as an integral part of
the area, at Chene and Maple.

The nonprofit project will be
governed by a group of area
Detroiters who will serve in a
voluntary capacity. Heading the
trustees is Norman Allan, called
by Rabbi Prero "a prime mover
since the project's inception."
Backing for the plans has come
from the National Council of

Young Israel, which coordinates
the efforts of local Young Israel
branches. This project is a first
for the Council although similar
projects in other cities have been
undertaken successfully under
Jewish Federation or organization
auspices.
Rabbi Prero said the Detroit
Council has not worked through
the Jewish Welfare Federation on
this project, but had initiated its
own plans for housing back in No-
vember 1962.
With a survey of the Jewish pop-
ulation of Detroit and suburbs, the
Council learned there was great
need for such facilities for mem-
bers of the Jewish faith. Research
also proved that a synagogue and
community center would have to
be established nearby. (Downtown

Synagogue on Griswold is some
distance from the area).
The apartment building will be

open to individuals or couples age
62 or over, with an income of not
less than $2,200 and not more than
$4,800. This latter requirement is
prescribed by federal government
regulations.

"This is not low-development
housing," Rabbi Prero explained.
"If certain legislative proposals
go through, the government
eventually will subsidize senior
citizens who rent," thus bring-
ing their costs down consider.
ably.
Valued at $3,000,000, the 22-story

building contains features and
services which have been specially
designed and incorporated for sen-
ior citizens. Rentals will range
from $85 to $120 monthly for effi-
ciency-type and one-bedroom units.
Adjacent to Independence Hall
is a new city park with a small
lake and band shell. There are a
snack bar and community rooms.
Architects are Jude T. Fusco and
John P. Morgan of Ferndale.
Since renewal operations down-
town have begun, 58 churches were
taken out of the area. Young Israel
will be the seventh "church" to
locate facilities downtown. "We
feel ultimately that 30,000 people
will live in the inner city," said
Rabbi Prero. "Our people will

come only if there is a synagogue." '

The Young Israel national and
local offices must advance $300,000

applications for federal mort-
gages pending in Washington.

However, Rabbi Prero said,
Young Israel is further ahead in
getting city approval and he is
confident his organization will be
approved. "If we should be
stymied," he said, "we'll follow
