N.Y. Rights Law
Goes Into Effect

NEW YORK (JTA)—The New
York State Commission on Human
Rights will be empowered for the
first time, under a new law which
became effective Wednesday, to
order collection of damages from
an individual found guilty of racial
or religious discrimination. The
measure is the first major revision
in the New York State Law Against
Discrimination in 20 years. It
covers discrimination in education,
jobs, housing and public accom-
modations.
The American Jewish Congress,
which helped draft the bipartisan
measure, said today the law would
"significantly strengthen" the Corn-
mission in dealing with such bias
and would open "a grand new
phase in New York's war on big-
otry and bias."
Another revisionprovides for a
temporary court order banning
sale or rental of housing in which
a discriminatory act had been
charged.

Redford Antique Show

The Redford-Detroit antique
show will be held Sept. 9-11
at Carp ent e r's Auditorium,
22521 Grand River, noon to 10
p.m. This showing is its 55th semi-
annual presentation, and is the
oldest show in the state.

In "The Popes and the Jews
in the Middle Ages," an objective,
well-documented study of the rela-
tionships of the popes with the Eu-
ropean Jewish communities from
the 5th to the 15th Centuries,
Father Edward A. Synan does
not attempt to arbitrate the con-
flicts, but rather to determine their
origin. He examines the medieval
manifestations of anti-Semitism
and renders them intelligible. The
book will be published by Mac-
millan Oct. 11.
With respect to the popes, two
have been given more detailed
study than the rest: Gregory I
(590-604) because he set both the
problem and the general lines of
its solution for all his medieval
successors, and Innocent III (1198-
1217) because his pontificate mark-
ed the zenith of papal power. Both
popes left very full documentation
on Christian-Jewish problems of
their times.
Father Synan has read and used
every available relevant docu-
ment in the preparation of his
book.
For scholars who can evaluate
the translations and interpreta-
tions presented, the original texts
have also been provided.
Because the Roman Law of the
Christian Empire was first en-
forced and then used as a kind of
pattern for papal legislation, every
statute that bears on the Jews has
been scrutinized by the author.
Those laws judged most significant
are presented in the book.
The Virginia Kirkus Service,
which has given the book a recom-
mended rating, has this to say of
"The Popes and the Jews in the
Middle Ages": "Father Synan has
no axe to grind, no pet theory to
set forth, no favorite pope to exon-
erate; he allows his material to
speak for itself. He has produced
that rara avis, a literate, but thor-
oughly scientific and painstakingly
documented, historical study. It is
a book which is as entertaining as
it is instructive, and should be in-
dispensable to any student of ec-
clesiastical, medieval, or Jewish
history, and indeed to any general
reader with a taste for the history
of ideas."
Father Synan is a professor at
the Pontifical Institute of Medieval
Studies, University of Toronto. He
was formerly chairman of philo-
sophy at Seton Hall University. He
is associate editor of The Bridge,
a yearbook of Judaeo-Christian
studies.

The board of directors of Bor-
man Food Stores declared a quar-
terly dividend of 20 cents per
share, payable Oct. 8, to stockhold-
ers of record Sept. 17.

ADVICE-! ?

11W

AS TO

HOW TO BE A JEWISH MOTHER

First, have one or two or three or more sons, who need "Back to School
Clothes."
Then, effect an attitude and demeanor provoked by aggravation, which
one, two, three or more sons can bring.
Without too big a struggle bring your crew to the PRINCETON SHOP.
Be in a hurry—you're just coming from or just going to the beauty
shop.
Disagree vehemently with everything the kids want (especially the fit
of the pants) before you "Give In" to their choice. But, then be smug in
the realization that even AT PRINCETON, admit THAT YOU ARE RIGHT.
Exhausted, ask your salesman if you can use the phone. Call your hus-
band and tell him that next time HE can take HIS sons to buy clothes, and
that you would rather shop for girls, any time. ADD, with just a wee bit
of hysteria, how could he destroy your life with boys, ugh!
Finally, after the last sport jacket and last pair of sox have been select-
ed, and your bill is being tallied, just Say,—"CHARGE IT". This is impor-
tant! Regardless of how faithful you have been previously TO THE CODE
of Jewish mothers, YOU CEASE BEING A MEMBER IN GOOD STANDING
—unless you remember to CHARGE!
Days later, when your guys are dressed for school—and look so hand-
some—or the "Big One" packs to leave for college—you look at them quiet-
ly and lovingly—and think, Proudly—THESE ART, MY SONS! There is noth-
ing too good for my boys.
