PHILADELPHIA (JTA) — The
Philadelphia chapter of the Ameri-
can Jewish Committee reported
Monday that "progress in the hiring
and promotion" of Jewish lawyers
in major law of f i c e s has been
achieved in this city in the last five
years.
A survey launched in 1961 had
shown that, of seven large firms
here which had reported no "Jew-
ish involvement," only three are
in that category now. The number
of Jewish attorneys in such firms
has increased from 35 to 46. The
large firms include a total of 585
attorneys.
The survey had been initiated by
the chapter's civil rights and civil
liberties committee, under the co-
chairmanship of Benjamin Lowen-
stein and Isador Kr a n z e 1, and
looked into the hiring practices of
15 law offices known as "Christian"
or predominantly non-Jewish.
It was found, five years ago, that
the seven law offices without "Jew-
ish involvement" each employed
40 or more attorneys. At the time
the survey was started, there had
been complaints about "the gen-
erally acknowledged limited in-
volvement of Jewish persons as as-
sociates and partners in major
Philadelphia law firms over the
years."
The survey, according to the
committee leaders, was under-
taken also as a step in the
group's program to overcome
barriers to the employment of
Jews in management-level posi-
tions in industry and finance lo-
cally. "There is a close relation-
ship," the report noted, between
major law offices in this city and
large corporations."
Factors in the improved situa-
tions, stated the report, are a non-
discrimination resolution adopted
in 1964 by the Philadelphia Bar As-
sociation, efforts in the law schools
in this area, and "the shortage of
highly-qualified personnel." T h e
committee expressly thanked the
local Bar Association leadership,
the three local law schools, and
individual law firms "for their un
derstanding of the problem of dis-
crimination and their efforts to
improve the situation."
The committee noted, however,
that several questions still remain
regarding the issue. Most large
firms that have taken on Jewish as-
sociates, the group stated, "have
hired only one or two" and "pro-
motion to partnership has been
slow." "It is not yet clear," accord-
ing to the group, "that religious
identification has been entirely
abandoned."

will be open to all people."
The conference urged that Jew-
ish welfare federations take the
leadership in developing local fin-
ancial sponsorship for such hous-
ing and also resolved to work to-
ward federal programs to subsidize
the rents of older adults whose
rents are in excess of 25 per cent
of their incomes.
In addition, it suggested the re-
duction of local real estate taxes
for older adult homeowners on fix-
ed incomes, favored a 20 per cent
increase in Social Security pay-
ments and moved to campaign for
a program of part-time employment
for older adults in cooperation with

Israel 'Gives $20,000
in Aid to UN in Cyprus
NEW YORK (ZINS)—Israel is
among the countries which partici-
pate in the maintenance of the UN
force in Cyprus.
Its annual contribution of $20,.-
000 seems small when compared
to Am e r i c a' s $18,000,000 and
England's $9,000,000.
However, ranged beside the con-
tributions of other small nations,
it is considerable. Nepal sends
$400, Cambodia, $600, and Leba-
non, $997.
Of the 42 countries maintain-
ing the Cyprus UN force, Israel's
'contribution ranks 23rd. -
