"Love Affair With a City" is a
memoir about Stanley M. Isaacs
by his widow, Edith S. Isaacs.
Published by Random House, the
Isaacs story, as the widow explains
at the outset, is not a biography.
It gives accounts of numerous ex-
periences by the late Borough
President of Manhattan who was
the minority leader of the New
York City Council, who played
important roles in Republican pol-
itics, who closely associated long
ago with Theodore Roosevelt, then
with Fiorello LaGuardia, laboring
with both in Republican Party
politics.
Only once did Isaacs deviate
from party loyalty — when he
even though it appears in the Bal-
four Declaration "because," as his
letter stated, "it has been construed
by so many to mean a Jewish na-
tional state in which nobody except
Jews will be admitted to full citi-
zenship .. . "
Apparently he was among the
misinformed non-Zionists.
There is little else about his
Jewish interests in this otherwise
well told story by his able wife.

Progressive Party campaign for

Stanley M. Isaacs (1882-1962)
influenced his wife Jewishly. She
learned to have a kosher kitchen
but when she found some difficulty
he made concessions: all she was
to do was to refrain from having
pork or shellfish at their table.
Isaacs' grandfather was the
rabbi who "had read the Scrip-
tures at the service when Lincoln's
cortege passed through New York."
His father was Judge Myer S.
Isaacs.
Mrs. Isaacs found it necessary
to include in this memoir about her
husband a letter he wrote to Freda
Kirchwey, then editor of the Na-
tion, objecting to the term "Na-

Daily Forward
Marks 70th Year
NEW YORK (JTA)—Thousands
of Jews filled Philharmonic Hall
at Lincoln Center here Sunday to
celebrate the 70th anniversary of
the existence of the Jewish Daily
Forward, the largest Yiddish news-
paper in the world. Many others
were unable to secure entrance
into the hall because the tickets
for the affair had been sold out
weeks in advance.
The Forward jubilee was mark-
ed by the appearance of a special
edition of the newspaper compris-
ing 136 pages. with 80 writers par-
ticipating in the six sections, which
included a special 13-page section
in English reviewing the history
and achievements of the Forward.
The important part played by
the Forward in the development
of Jewish life in the United States
was emphasized by President John-
son in a message read at the
gathering. A message was also
read from President Shazar of Is-
rael, stressing the services render-
ed by the Forward to Jewish Pales-
tine before the establishment of
Israel and, later, when the Jewish
State was established.
